What did we do?
Inside the house we sanded two floors. We stained and urethaned the den floor, painted the door and trim, moved in furniture, hung art and curtains. The room is very usable now but Shannon has a built-in to add and the quarter round to do. 
We took down a disused three story chimney and carried a ton or two of bricks outside.We removed two closets.
Outside we trimmed trees- at least 8 and removed a couple more.
We took a trip to the metal recyclers and then one to the constructions material dump.
We did electrical work in the garage.
We carried firewood in from the garage, down to the basement to drying rack number one, then up to the living room to drying rack number two and finally to the burning rack.
For fun we walked the property. It is a complex piece of land with evergreen forests, birch stands, old orchards, ponds, marshes and meadows. While walking the dog we tried to find animal tracks without much luck.
Finally we ended our stay with dinner at Bistro East, our favourite NS restaurant.
Now counting the months until we can come back again.
