Growing up in Vegas with our nice weather E was becoming an outdoor girl. She wasn’t big enough yet to go off on her own, but over at our house we always left the back door open so that she could wander around the yard. There’s not much dangerous around our yard, the pool has a cover as well as a fence around it, and our vicious dogs are inside as well as out. She would rather be outside than in, and loved just walking around looking at things. Unfortunately now that she is in Portland the rain has been keeping her in, but she does like to go to the park up there, even if it is wet.
Sometimes Grammy would be pulled along on these investigative missions. Now I understand that there are a lot of questions being asked, but back in June when they visited it was still mostly pointing and noises. Some of her favorite things to do involved food – we had some productive tomato plants this year, sometimes some of them made it into the house. Well, taste testing is always appreciated.
Grammy also put in some grapes to cover the back block wall. E seemed to have a talent about finding the sweet ones.
Sometimes she just liked digging on her own. Since we pulled up most of the grass that left lots of places where digging was fairly easy.
