We were very busy yesterday! First we cut down this spruce tree. It was SAD! I know! It is a beautiful tree! But it was going to get 2 or 3 times as large and it is not in a good place next to the sidewalk.We left part of the trunk and mom spent a lot of time making it level. We’ve been working on setting up a Little Free Library and we mounted a platform on the tree trunk and then secured the LFL to it. This is where the careful leveling paid off! Our awesome neighbor Margo came over to help and she also brought some children’s books for the library! Then today her husband Steve came over with his power tools and strong hands and put in longer screws and also countersunk them so it looks nicer and is super sturdy. We have the best neighbors!!!If it is true that every tree ring equals a year then this tree was about 13 years old. We will miss the tree but we are honoring its memory by using it for the Library.
OMG we went to the Spokane Civic Theater to see The Wizard of Oz !!!!This is inside the theater you should not take pictures during the show but this is before it started.We went with our good Friends Joni and Gary! Joni is gorgeous as usual and Gary is very handsome.OMG !!! After the show you can meet the actors and here I am with the Wicked Witch (who also plays Almira Gulch) and Auntie Em (who also plays Glinda the Good Witch). Auntie Em is mom’s friend Lacey!!! OMG!!! They were both amazing in the show!! Lacey can act and can SING! and she has won awards!! Lacey is super beautiful and also one of the nicest people ever. The wicked witch was amazing and is actually really nice and is… um… really beautiful in her own way. (Under the makeup I am sure she is gorgeous!)Afterwards we went out to dinner and had a great view of the Spokane River. It was a wonderful day!
