One of the many perks with my job is the ability to work from anywhere with an internet connection. This week that perk took me west to spend a few days at my youngest daughter’s house in Abilene. She and her husband are new homeowners and in celebration of her 25th birthday we broke ground on a patio. The project will be a work in progress for a while, but we created the bones of the area and prepared a portion as a bed for new plants!
