I have a hard time persuading Harry to take things easy and get someone in to do the tough jobs. Sorry Nick is stressed, it's so difficult caring for ageing parents and sad watching them become more and more frail. Glad you have had some fun - rather you than me on the hike, though!<br />Rosie xxRosie Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00765687509366453029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31522777.post-11886103081876629652017-07-19T08:05:19.679-04:002017-07-19T08:05:19.679-04:00Wow, PK, your part of the world is beautiful!

It's so hard to watch our parents age. Sounds like you are doing an awesome job! Skinny dipping sounds fun!<br /><br />The roof thing would scare me... Maybe Sunny's idea would be good, and possibly get you spanked too... At least you wouldn't have to worry. <br /><br />What a hiker you have become! The view looks like it was trip worthy. I understand completely, after the early summer day hike with Rob! Never thought that I would walk again... but I am walking! HA! Good for you! Your kind of hike sounds perfectly lovely!

I'm like Nick. Can't sit still and the more stressed I am, the more I need to be doing. Sounds like you are supporting him in every way possible, as well as his parents. Keep skinny dipping - sounds like a good way to get him off the roof!

That has to be so stressful and, as you say, keeping busy is Nick's way of dealing with it. <br /><br />Glad you also had some fun during Nick's week off. I would gladly take some of your day time heat right now!<br /><br />The trip to the mountains sounds amazing. Awesome pics and stunning views.<br /><br />Hugs <br />Roz Rozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14326826956049047973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31522777.post-1582289377309234462017-07-18T03:34:23.939-04:002017-07-18T03:34:23.939-04:00Hi Pk, nice view if an arduous task to get there.
...Hi Pk, nice view if an arduous task to get there.<br />Oh I understand about the oldies, it took such a long time to get ours settled into a niceish home and now the blooming place is up for sale and I have no idea what is happening. I understand Nick going in most days. When Ours went in I thought I could do less as they were cared for but somehow I end up going more and more.
