One more thing...

There was actually one more project at the church this week, a continuation of the parking lot project to repaint the handicapped spaces. Like a lot of things, it took longer than anticipated, but the six spaces complete the fresh look!

The final project

Five tons of rock

Prep work completed

A clean look

Result of our labors

Surveying the results

We spent much of Friday turning a weedy patch in the front yard into a full-on zeroscape area. The parsonage is now 100% zeroscaped! 

After first clearing the area using a tiller, we placed landscape fabric down and then Charles made a border on one side using large rocks taken from the sidewalk project over at the church. Next was taking delivery of five tons of rock and spreading it over the area. 

When the last of the rock had been shoveled and the street swept, our final outdoor project at the parsonage (the church Trustees are still planing to trim the tree in the front) was complete!

A splash of color!

We set out some empty peanut butter and salad dressing containers in the yard in the colors that are making a statement at the parsonage!

This to shall pass...

While there is still plenty of summer still to come, there are beginning to be glimpses in our neighborhood of the season to come!

The newest exhibit entry and more

Charles submitted his newest painting (above) for consideration in an upcoming exhibit in Denver today. He also put the finishing touches on a similar piece (below) that we'll be keeping!

New Zoom visitors

We were thrilled to welcome Charles' mom and sister, Jackie, to the world of Zoom in our worship this morning. Afterwards, we enjoyed a long visit!

On a roll at the church

Charles took on another big project at the church this week, painting the parking lot stripes! It should be completed early next week!
