Hanging Around Outside

Yesterday, George and I were hanging out on our front porch letting Nala run around in the front yard. She loves exploring her surroundings...

She has done a good job at guarding the house. Maybe a little too good. A fundi (handyman) was supposed to come a fix a few things around the house. When he never came, we called the owner of the house to see what happened. It turns out, he did come, but when he approached the house, Nala barked from inside and scared him away. We don't know if we were home when he came and was too scared to approach the door or if he came when we weren't home. Either way, he said he is never coming back! Oooops! We are more than willing to put Nala away when he comes if he would give us a chance!

Our house faces a large field. To the left, there is an elementary school.

In the front of our house, there are "umbrella trees." They are called that because the branches fan out like an umbrella instead of going up. It's hard to capture in a photo, but they are really pretty.

At one point, I came out and both George and Nala were sitting on the porch wall. Just chillin'!

It was nice to sit out front. The weather has been perfect. Not too hot or too rainy. Reminds me of home.
