Sweet Corn

 

This morning after breakfast I took a box of yellow squash to the post office and pot in "share the harvest" shelf. When I got home, I picked sweet corn. I shucked it. we had Carol's famous soup for lunch. We drove to Fillmore and filled the car with gas. I took my lap to Dan Speakman. He checked it to see if there were any problems. There weren't any, I had him copy the phots that were on my phone to my tablet. He did. Carol was at the market and bought some groceries, after we got home it rained hard for a couple of minutes and then quit.

We froze the corn and put it in the freezer.

Here is a tray of frozen corn,

I picked it and helped Carol cut the corn off the cob.

Here I have the corn in a tote.

Payson Again

We got an early start this morning. We went to the Payson temple. We met some friend for the 9:40 session. After the session we stopped at Wendy's for hamburger sandwiches and drinks. We then stopped at Nephi for ice cream cones. I watered the plants on the front porch. I tried for a long time and then took the state bank in Fillmore. Someone there worked on it for over an hour. They fixed so I could pay my bills. While I was gone Carol made some good soup. I had a bowl of it and a Nutella sandwich. I then got my laptop out and paid two bills.

Two topaz melons. This is the larger one.

This the smaller topaz melon.

I picked a whole bunch of yellow squash.

The peaches and cream sweet corn is really good,

Off to Fillmore

After breakfast I watered the topaz melons. There are two melons. One is much larger than a softball and the other one the size of a tennis ball. I then watered the baskets and tubes. I haven't watered the plants in greenhouse five for some time. I watered the fig plant. some of them had small green figs on them. I went into greenhouse six. Some the fig plants had ripe figs. I ate six or seven figs. They were really sweet. We drove to Fillmore where Carol met with a medical assistant. After the exam he gave her a prescription and some instructions. We got a few groceries and then came home. For some reason I was not able to pay my bills. This afternoon I went to the dermatologist at the Fillmore clinic.  

i still can't pay my bills.

Hot, Hot, Hot

After breakfast this morning, I cleaned the Walla Walla onions. I cut off the tops and put the onions in a bucket, Next, I put the onions in a wooden crate.

This is the crate which helps them dry.

This is the five-gallon bucket.

This a picture of the onions I took a few days ago. I watered the baskets and the plants in the back yard, Then I watered the plants in the garden. We had the left-over spaghetti for lunch. The pomegranate plant is beginning to look healthy.

Monday

After I got up this morning I made a new batch of old fashion oat meat mush. After breakfast I watered the baskets and tubs on the front porch. I watered some of the plants in the garden. I began watering the front lawn east of the sidewalk and the east lawn. I watered the east lawn all day.

Yesterday, I dug up the Walla Walla onions yesterday and cleaned them up today,

This this topaz melon is about the same size as a tennis ball. The melon in the photo below is about the same size as a soft ball. 

Saturday Chores

 

Pretty normal morning except for the TV shows. I turned on channel seven. On Saturday they "how to" shows. I watered the baskets and tubs on the front porch. After breakfast, I began to water the grass in the back yard. I watered all the grass in the back yard and watered most of the grass in the east lawn, No pictures. Carol fixed a batch of spaghetti for supper.
