I suggested to Ron that we not make the bed or cook but instead go for a joyride to see the Harriman reservoir in Vermont.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a pretty trip but Google Maps led us to a chained off dirt road so we never got to see the reservoir. Ron is having trouble with his right leg so walking, even a short distance (2\/10 of a mile) was not an option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We did come upon a Serenity Garden in Whitingham that has the biggest, most beautiful butterfly bush I&#8217;ve ever seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"206\" height=\"206\" src=\"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-1.png 206w, https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-1-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 206px) 100vw, 206px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I finally figured out how to use the sound bar with the TV: what a difference!  We indulged in several jazz videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The boys came over looking for a laser pointer and had fun making Pustefix bubbles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This morning I moved things around the bar in the sunroom and brought the guest bed platform upstairs.  It is in two parts and folds for storage!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I installed the liner and one of the bags of soil in the smaller elevated bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Picked a bouquet for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"206\" height=\"206\" src=\"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21454\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image.png 206w, https:\/\/hendersonbrook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 206px) 100vw, 206px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Made a vegetable tort of summer squash, peppers, tomatoes with basil, garlic and the mushroom\/onion umami seasoning; a salad; and biscuits for supper.
