Cold

 

Everything looked good until I went outside.  There was a cold wind blowing and it came from the southwest. After breakfast, I walked out to greenhouse five.  The temperature on the thermostat 64 degrees.  There were two peas that germinated.  

President's Day

 

On Monday about once a month. we wash the sheets and pillowcases. We did this, this morning.  After they are dry. we make the beds.  

We drove to Fillmore to get some ink for my printer.  Before we went home, we bought two ice cream cones.  When we got to Holden, we drove up and down the streets.  When got home we had lunch.  I put the ink cartridges in the printer, It printed, but it was in black and white. I then drove back to Fillmore and got and another color cartridge. It worked.  I Then printed photo of one of our great grandsons, Carol stuck it the backdoor.  I watered most of the plants in greenhouse five,  

House Six

The Saturday shows are different from weekday shows.  We watched some of the news.  We also watched some of the woodworking shows.  After lunch I was getting sleepy.  I decided to plant some topaz melon seeds.  I got four plastic cups.  

This picture shows the four plastic cups.  I planted four topaz melon seeds in each hill.

This picture shows one hill with a plastic cup over the seeds.

Here is a pile of weeds that I dug up.

More weeds. I did a lot of weeding in greenhouse six,

New Vacuum

 

This morning, we were up at our regular time. The alarm on my phone had a funny sound on it.  I watched the morning news and some of the morning MeTV shows.  It was about 10:30 when we drove to Fillmore.  We got gas at the LOVE gas station. Our car was pretty dusty because of the driving the dusty roads yesterday. I washed all of the glass one the car.  We bought some groceries.  Carol bought some birthday cards.  We then stopped at Roper's hardware store, and I bought a cordless vacuum. We then went home.  For lunch I ate the rest of the pizza.  There were two pieces.  After lunch, I put the vacuum to gather and charged the battery.

Rain

It was about seven this morning when we left Holden.  There was some rain in the valley some snow in the mountains.  We were soon in Linden where we picked up Nyleen and drove to the Mount Timpanogos temple. We were early enough to go the earlier session.  When the session was over, we took Nyleen home.  She made us a nice sack lunch. We stopped at Sams Club where we bought some groceries.  It began to rain quite hard. We then went to Walmart where I bought a connecting cable for my phone. It worked. I am now able to take picture and post them on my blog.

There was about one half inch of rainwater in this frying pan on the patio, it looks like a mirror showing the tree branches above. 

This another picture I took, showing the temperature in greenhouse five. We took the house garbage to the dump.  There has been some thunder this afternoon.

Power Was Off

 

After breakfast we watched one TV show when the power was turned off.  This was announced several weeks ago.  I backed the car out of the garage.  The power was turned off at nine right as scheduled.  We had planned to take three unopened glass coke bottles to Maryanne.  We soon drove to Sutherland and stopped her house.  After a short we drove around Sutherland.  We looked at the home where I grew up.  We went the cemetery where our baby and my parents were buried. We then drove on miles and miles of dirt roads.  We filled the care with gas in Fillmore.   W bought some hamburger and then drove home.  The power came back on. I went out to greenhouse five to hook up the drip tape to water a row of peas.  I tried several times. The water presure was too high and caused the connections to come apart.

Watering Peas

When I went out to greenhouse five this morning, I discovered that I had left the water on, there was a big puddle of water under the fertilizer container.  I shut the water off the water, Then I got a water braker and began to spray the row of peas that Robert planted. That didn't work very well. I then took the water braker of and the water directly from the hose. Awhile later I walked backwards dragging the hose on the row of peas. I expect that they will germinate in a week from now.    I then watered Robert's fruit trees and Carol's pomegranate bush.
