Friday

Interesting day. After breakfast and the morning TV shows. Carol went to her exercise class. When that was over, we picked up Alisha and drove to Fillmore where we bought a bag of lay pellets. We took Alisha to the drug store. We waited in the car. She soon came out and we went to the Fillmore Market and bought some groceries. At the south end of Fillmore, we bought ice creme cones. We then went home.  

The pea vines are getting quite tall. Some are blooming.
These holes are made by antlions. The ant goes in the hole and can't get out. Itis eaten by some small insect.

Flowering cactus in full bloom.

Ready for Freeze

After breakfast we watched the morning TV shows. Carol made some tuna-fish sandwiches for lunch. This afternoon I walked around the yard turning on the taps just a little so they would not freeze, The weather forecast is 22 degrees.

 After breakfast I put on my suit and Carol took me to choir practice. We are learning some hymns that are really difficult for me. After choir practice I went in the chapel and sit with Carol and Richard. After the sacrament. The Stake President released the bishopric and sustained the new bishopric. All of them spoke. Carol went to relief society meeting; Richard and I stayed for priesthood meeting. After dinner Richard left.

Catch Up

Richard was gone all day. Carol and I went to Fillmore, Filled the car with gas, bought some groceries, and stopped at the drug store. When Richard came back. he started the lawn mower. After lunch I mowed the front lawn. I then started to mow the back lawn and hit a chain that I didn't put away last fall. The belt came loose. Richard tried to fix it. We went to Fillmore for a new belt and they didn't have one. They could have a new next week.

Every Thursday we go to Timpanogos temple. We get up a little early, put on our Sunday and eat an early breakfast. It was a little after seven when we drove out town. It was a little cloudy most of the way. We picked Nyleen up and drove to the temple. It was a good session. We took her back home. We stopped at Sam's Club and bought some groceries. We got in a huge traffic jam on the way home. After we unloaded the car I watered the peas and other plants in greenhouse five.  I watered some in greenhouse six,

Wednesday

 

Last night I thought I would use a blanket instead of turning on the electric blanket. I put it on my bed. It was so heavy that I took it off and plugged in the electric blanket. I had a good rest. I watched the morning news. Carol gets up and showers. We fixed breakfast and watched some of the morning TV shows. At ten this morning Carol went to her exercise class. When it was over she picked up the mail. 


This is a native shrub that is growing north of the driveway north of our front yard.
I turned the water on and let it run on a redwood tree north of greenhouse three.
This is the lilac shrub that is by the kidney.
Here is a closeup photo of the bush.
I watered all of the plants in greenhouse five.
