To Glue or Not to Glue . . . More Puzzle Pics

Image
When we were looking at permanent housing while living in the first house we had rented when we first came out to Oregon I thought it would be great to find one with a room we could use as a game room.   It would be nice to have that extra room for putting puzzles together. The house that we live in does not have the extra room that some of the other housing may have offered.   We talked about turning the back porch into our game room.   Since then Roland has thought it necessary to glue puzzles together so that we can hang them in the game room.   I don’t think it’s necessary to glue them – especially when there is no back room.   And with this COVID thing, other expenses are created and the game room doesn’t even seem to appear on the horizon anymore.   Hey, but we have three puzzles to hang.   also the pic from this post  https://beneaththewraps.blogspot.com/2020/04/charles-wysocki.html I found some puzzle pictures that I had forgotten abou...

Day 6: Lakeview and Olcott Beach

On our last full day we took two cars to the ”beach”.   I had purchased a pair of jelly shoes to wear in the sand.   I could have worn my sneakers and been okay.   Jenna wouldn’t have.   She definitely needed the flipflops we purchased. I don’t know how long we were at the lake.   I think we spent just as much time on the grounds across from the lake.   It was a nice day to end our vacation. Carrie said that (prior to Covid) that this area would be open each summer as a fair run by volunteers; it was fortunate that there were some places open funny how these viewers were open at the lake but not at Niagara Falls Jenna had no idea that a large would be that large
