Wednesday
Dear Elsie
Today, I worked! I love these kind of working days. They are low key and I can do as much or as little as I like. I worked for an hour and then we went to the beach. The water was flat and calm and the tide was high. I swam from the cat walk to the lighthouse and back. There were a lot of people in the water. It was just wonderful.
After getting home, just before I had breakfast I filled the bird bottle. They have not drunk as quickly as yesterday so there is still sugar water left. I have some photos of the greedy ones, squabbling and fighting to get to drink. 
After breakfast, I worked for a little while and then we went down to clean the Little Lookout. We have guests who have arrived today. It’s looking nice and spiffy.
Ha! When I see this angle…
I reflect back on when it began its ‘life!’ November 2019…
We are still excited over it and enjoy getting positive feedback from guests. It’s not self-catering – just a room with a shower room with basin and loo. It has a microwave and kettle. It’s spacious and airy and has excellent WIFI and is on our solar system so load shedding isn’t an issue. Once these guests leave, David will be in it until his next travels.
Our next plan is to try to introduce a option to split the cottage into upstairs and downstairs so we can Airbnb both separately. Perhaps that will be a 2023 project.
After the morning work, Jess and Gerrie came for cappuccino this afternoon and we had a nice chat.
Elsie, darling, I’m counting the days until you arrive! This time next week you should be here! Can’t wait to see you!
Another beautiful day in Fish Hoek. Enjoying each day.
Psalm 146:1-2
Praise the Lord! Let all that I am praise the Lord. I will praise the Lord as long as I live.
The best is yet to come – we are only passing through.
Keep the smile going.
God bless you.
In His Grip,
Gran, xx 🙂
