No wonder I need a big table... within just a few minutes I can clutter an area like a champion of chaos.
Here's my sitting spot in the palace - glass of wine, glass of ice tea, camera, binoculars, kindle, pen and paper, fly swatter, speaker with music on the side, dogs at my feet.
The barbecue is just a few steps away in case of a hunger attack.
Sometimes it seems the only good reason to get up is to toss another log into the hot tub stove for later when the evening chill creeps in.
There's lots of work to be done, I am reminded. But, heck, we're only in year six of a 30-year project, so...
Merlot.
