The day is hazy again and I can't wait to explore Cave Point. Remember Rita on the Harbor Lady yacht who checked off a list of Door County must dos? Her recommendation was to see Cave Point when it is windy and it is windy. So, off I go. Hopefully, I'll be able to show you some picturesque images.
My last three postings were done by phone because my move to Larson Cottages eliminated any convenient internet access. But, Sharon stopped by today for a visit that turned into a request that I stick around until the cable guy completed his installation. Mind you, I wasn't asked to baby sit him. Sharon wanted to show me the side entrance to the garage on the property, the location of the newly installed modem. She was disappointed that the wireless capability would not be available until after my departure. But, when she became aware of her need to ask me to change accommodations, Sharon went into overdrive making sure my new location would meet my every need.
Upon selecting Larson Cottages, Sharon contacted the owners expressing they needed to install internet and they responded. Of course, the property is owned by her daughter-in-law's family.
So, the good news is I am not being charged the full rate for this new set-up due to Sharon's snafu. Saturday, she brought fresh burgundy floor mats. Today, she brought me a brand new DVD player and made sure I had access to the new modem. Finally, she has also granted me permission to use the off limits washer and dryer on the grounds.
Now, I know that many of you might be thinking, "she should be jumping through hoops." But, the way I see it is this very hard working farmer, leasing agent, soon to turn 70 woman, is quite hospitable and a force of nature. I imagine she'll be changing her little world for quite a while. She just got her vegetable garden in, which she has done for the past 50 years and she has shared plenty about her mother who turned 100 in March.
So, this rambling started with the thought that I have been posting with my phone. This is the reason for the lack of pictures. With Sharon's insistent needling of her owners, I will now be able to document the rest of my Door County stay with visuals as well.

A little late response Laurel, but haven't been very close to internet access until recently. Glad to hear that ur new housing arrangements are working out. Mom and I have had a rather large dose of magic: lectures, performances, etc. and have enjoyed ourselves. We did visit two quilt shops earlier in the week, so Mom had her "fix". Still think that sleeping in our own bed tomorrow night will be great. Take care. Daddy
