Recent Happenings

Elke's car (Dixie) finally made it out to Erie. As many of you know it died 2 days before we were going to leave MN and we decided just to leave it. Elke' dad made the road trip from Golden Valley to Erie with car and to out surprise the car made the 16 hr drive with no issues! Yesterday we to Robert on the Erie/Chataqua Wine Trail and made visited 4 wineries along the way. Lots of fruity sweet wines, not our favorite, but also several good dry wines.

Last night we decided to have some friends over for a BBQ and bonfire. It was a perfect evening and everything was going great until Camilla decided to be the great guard dog she is and attempt to chase a skunk out of our yard. She was successful in scaring the skunk away, but to everyone's misfortune was sprayed in the process. So a late night bath with doggy soap and mouth wash was in order. The bath neutralized the smell to some extent, but not enough to let Camilla sleep in the house. So Camilla and Elke had a camp-out on the front porch last night.

More to come!
