Lights Went Off

Day light saving ended early this morning. I got up and checked my apple tablet and it showed that we were on regular time. I thought that I would get up any way. It was really dark outside. I showered and started to make old fashion oatmeal mush. I fed the cats. Richard got up and soon Carol got up. We had breakfast. Richard got a phone call and didn't finish his breakfast until later. We went to church and as soon as we walked into east door the lights went off. Someone had a portable amplifier which was used by the speakers, The power came back on during priesthood meeting. We had most of our dinner. It was not cooked at all. Carol peeled and boiled and mashed the potatoes. She also fried some pork chops. After dinner Richard left. I watered the germination tray in house five.

The power was off in Scipio to Cove Fort.

Planting Seeds

It was a regular morning, except Richard was gone. After breakfast we watched the channel 7 wood working shows and cooking shows. For lunch we roast beef sandwiches. This afternoon I worked in house five planting vegetables and melon seeds. I cleaned all of the old potting soil of the heating mats, I plugged the extinction cord. The mat appeared to be on. 

I wrote the names of the seed on a a white stick label. I shake so much I couldn't read it. I took the seeds into the house; Carol wrote the name of the seeds on the white stick. They can be read. Richard came back. He has been fishing with his friends. We had supper.

Electric Fix

 

Carol made hamburgers for lunch. The tasted very good.

The night light in the bathroom would not come on. when I went to bed last night. I tried several things to get it to come on. It still did not come on. I tried several things this morning. I turned braker switch on and of several time, our neighbor across the road is a election. I thought he would be able to fix it. I found his phone number. Carol didn't want me to call him because he works with bigger power lines. I put a note on Face Book. About an hour later the phone rang.  He had seen the note and was soon at our door. He did several tests. It was an easy fix, He went right to work and soon fixed it. The problem was in Carol's bathroom. There was a switch on the west wall. It had been shut off. He turned it on. That fixed the problem in my bathroom. Carol plugged in her hair dryer, It worked. Richard gave him a $20.00 tip.

Richard has been here most of the afternoon. He fixed the blinds in the west window in the front room. It now looks new.

Snow

 

Yesterday we had planned to the Mount Timpanogos this morning, the weather forecast last night was for snow. So we decided to stay home. I opened the front door and the sidewalk was wet. I showered, dressed and opened the front door. There was some snow on the front lawn, I made a batch of old fashion oatmeal mush. I fed the cats, We watched the morning news and channel 44 TV shows.  We had frozen TV dinners for lunch. I went out to greenhouse five. The snow had melted. It is quite cool outside.

Eagle Mountain

It was around 10:30 when we left for eagle mountain, we were to meet April and her family at her home in Eagle. It has been quite a while since we have been there. We missed the freeway exit. We turned around and got on the right road, We drove up and down many of the roads. I called April and Carol talked to her. She told her how to go. We finally pulled of the road. We called April again. April said that she would come and we could follow he to her home. We did that. April had prepared a lunch for us. Before we left we signed a paper. We also took some pictures of her family. 

Yesterday I planted the tulip bulbs in the kidney flower bed. I covered them with this wire basket.
This is not a very good photo, The light was not good. This of Carol and I with April's family.
This is a photo of April's children, 
We then drove home, we stopped at Nephi and got two large ice cream cones. Mine lasted until we got to the Millard County boarder. We drove to Fillmore where we filled the car with gas.
