Auburn, Maine, August 2009

These pictures were taken during our first stay in Auburn, Maine, August 15-19, with Katarina and Predrag. In addition to spending time with them, I did a fair amount of yard work while at the Latkovich house, while Vlada was either swimming in the pool or in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes.
During our stay, in addition to swimming and walking the dogs, I moved quite a few stones, broke a handle of the wheelbarrow, put in a small stone path which unfortunately I forgot to document, planted a small mediterranean garden with sage, Russian sage and lavender, removed a great deal of weeds and a few dead shrubs, picked all the ripe blueberries, and discovered a compost bin hidden on the far side of the house, next to discarded planters.
