Helper Dog

Little Buddy lends a hand - or paw - to painting in Philadelphia.

Yes, that's his full formal name.  

No, he's not really little, or very helpful.  

But he tries.  :)

Meanwhile in Philadelphia...

EG now proudly calls this rowhouse home.  It's in the Northern Liberties neighborhood, near a great public park and dog park, and no longer snow covered.

First purchase for the new home:  composter!

The house is in good shape overall.  EG is squeezing in the contractor-required work this summer between research trips.  We'll work steadily on the work we can do ourselves over the next year: painting, yard work, and hopefully kitchen counter upgrades.  By the holidays we should be party ready!  More soon....
