Pieter Capturing his Progress on the Wood Trail while I was in Limburg
While I was in Limburg, Pieter got determined to finish our Wood Trail, adjacent to the gazebo, till the greenhouse in the back.
A short 2:26 minute video of his progress on this Mega Task.
Taken with Pieter's limited iPhone on June 5, around 15:50.
I'd gone to bed and was asleep when I woke up shortly past midnight and used my iPhone for another video–call via WhatsApp, to tell Pieter that he better uses his iPadPro instead, as that is unlimited.
This is the immediate result, captured at 18:30 after supper, in this short 1:30 minute video.
Quite a challenge for getting past our HUGE laurel oak tree Quercus hemisphaerica.
It made me feel very proud of my 93–year old Pieter who is tech–savvy and also very clever in conducting this final task!
The grass looked rather lush and you can see Kwekkie standing near the pond.
Greenhouse in the back and gazebo to the left.
Speckie, our youngest kitty–girl, is watching over the wooden poles that Pieter hauled back home for placing under the Wood Trail, for elevating it out of the ground so it won't rot that easily.
Thus we stayed in touch over 8,000 km away from each other but still maintaining a Blissful Relationship and Pieter also had the kitties as companions...
Olá, Mariette, que trabalho lindo, aqui chamamos trabalho de fôlego, pois é extremamente trabalhoso e requer muita habilidade. Seu jardim é belíssimo! Parabéns ao seu Pieter! Abraços, e daqui aplaudo!
Querida Taís, Obrigado e sim, é uma linda passarela agora. Muito trabalho duro, voltando-quebrando na verdade; mas é FEITO! Pieter sorriu com sua redação. Abraços, Mariette
Dearest Debby, Thank you and he sure is and even more so considering his age! You're lucky too and doing it now, will carry over into high age... Hugs, Mariette
Quite right to be proud of Pieter. I wish I could do things like him. He is really very talented and able. You two are such an example to all of us. God bless you both.
Dearest Kelleyn, Thank you and Pieter worked so hard for completing it! Hard to believe when wonderful family– and friends–time is coming to an end... but yes, both of us know that feeling all too well. Good that the girls love to get back to school! Hugs, Mariette
Un saluto dal caldo infernale del Friuli!

Pieter is amazing. He does good work too. My husband works like that but then again he's only 65.
ReplyDeleteDearest Debby,
DeleteThank you and he sure is and even more so considering his age!
You're lucky too and doing it now, will carry over into high age...

Pieter is admirable! I salute him!
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings, dearest Mariette.
Dearest Veronica,
DeleteYes, he is and very much a ONE–OF–A–KIND!
Hugs back from both of us,
Pieter & Mariette

ReplyDeleteDearest Victor,
DeleteYes, Pieter sure is remarkable for his age. He always has had enormous willpower; regardless his aching back and age.

Hej Mariette, petje af voor Pieter! Een flink karwei. Leuk dat gezelschap van Kwekkie. Fijn weekend, lieve groet!
ReplyDeleteBeste Willy,
DeleteDank je en het was zeker een mega klus! Kwekkie ondersteunde hem moreel...
Liefs,
Mariette
The trail looks great and yes home is calling us back. Six more days till we come home! The girls are so excited to go back to school.

Your space is really beautiful, but I imagine it's never finished. There is always work to be done.
