New Outdoor Furniture

We drove home from Bellevue in sunshine today -- a stark contrast to the outbound journey yesterday (see back-blip). The 40 mph speed limit on the temporary bridge replacement over the Skagit River doesn't seem to be a significant impediment to traffic flow.

Here I am assembling the IKEA table and chairs we bought yesterday at the IKEA store in Renton,just south of Seattle. There was a bit of a breeze blowing the instructions sheets around while I was working, necessitating the use of a paper weight. Luckily, I happened to have this bottle close by.

We had dinner on the deck to try out the new furniture. It worked just fine.

P.S. Check Cynthia's back-blip to see what granddaughter Z made for our breakfast before we returned from Bellevue.
