More Water

 

After breakfast I went out to greenhouse five to water the peas. There were deer track down the center of the greenhouse. I water the peas and fig plants. I went to the post office and got the mail.

Frost on the Garage

I could see frost on top of the garage when looked out from the back porch. Carol washed the dirty cloths and in then the bottom of the washer there was some coins. We got them out. After breakfast we watched the morning TV shows. I got the mail. There was a letter from RHODES PUMPS. He is the one that fixed the well. The total came to $ 4797.10. It was more than I thought. Carol paid it. We then drove to Fillmore. We bought some groceries and then went to the drug store where Carol bought some birthday cards. After we got home Carol made some sandwiches for lunch.

After lunch I turned on the sprinklers on the back lawn. There was a small spray. I turned the sprinklers off and dug the sprinklers up. It was plugged up. I cleaned it up. I turned the water back and it now spraying really good. Later in the day I saw a deer in the orchard. I went out and scared it a way. That deer came to the house and was standing on the patio just a few feet from the house, Carol banged her fist on the door and scared it away,

Surprise !!! Snow

It was a surprise to see snow in our yard. The TV wasn't working when we went to bed last night. There must have been stormy weather that interfered with the satellite signal. I put on my work shoes and my coat and went out. The snow was heavy on the tree branches that it blocked the TV signal; I went out two more times. The TV began to work properly. I watered the peas.

It was warm weather when Richard brought these hanging baskets. One was from Richard and one was from Lisa. The baskets got pretty cold last night, but the seem to be okay.

There chrysanthemums pots that didn't look damaged.

This is a shrub that grows on both sides of the porch. It is showing new growth.

This cactus plant has new flowers. The only last a couple of days.

Most grape vines in greenhouse five are showing new buds.

After break-fast this morning Carol wrapped potatoes in foil and put them in the oven. Later we went to church. I didn't go to choir practice. I decided to quite the choir.  We came home for dinner. I watered the plants in greenhouse five. I also turned on the water for the potato plant in greenhouse two. I did it several times. The hummingbirds are busy and one is on the nest outside my bathroom window. I watered the hanging baskets. The wind is blowing them.

Saturday

After breakfast I got the weed eater and started cutting weeds south of greenhouse two. Here I could see a tap that was running water, The ground was muddy in that area, I shut the water off. I continued to cut weeds going north between greenhouses one and two. I turned on the water for the potatoes growing in greenhouse two. I did that several times I continued to cut weeds to the north until the battery died. I turned on the water on the front lawn east of the sidewalk. I watered the plants and baskets that were on the front porch. We moved some of the plants that were on the front porch into the house. I moved the cart that contained the bedding plant into the garage. 

The well is Fixed

Regular morning. After breakfast, I picked green arrow peas. Carol shelled them. After lunch we picked up Alisha. There were two trucks parked north of greenhouse two. They belonged to the well fixing people. Carol let me off and walked out to the well. I said that we were going to Fillmore. They said that it would be fixed by the time that we would be fixed.   

We filled the car with gas. It didn't take much. We bought groceries at the Fillmore market. Carol got some medication at the drug store. Alisha wanted to get some onion rings at a little portable shop in Fillmore. When we got back their trucks were still there. Later the doorbell rang, It was one of the workers who said it was fixed. We turned on a tap. there was water. I watered the baskets, the corn, the onions and Carol's dahlias.

At the Temple

After a good breakfast we drove to the Payson, Utah Temple. We had a good session. As we walked out the door Lisa showed met us. Carol gave Lisa, Melisa's money. On the way we stopped at Wendy's and got Hamburgers. fry's, drinks and chicken nuggets. We then stopped in Nephi for ice cream cones and then drove home. I called the guy who is going to fix our well. He is busy and one of our neighbors wants to be there when he comes. It may take several weeks for every can there the same time.
