Car Fixed

This morning after breakfast I mowed the lawn. I removed all of the garden hoses that were on the lawns, The lawn mower started right up. I put air in the tires and began to mow. I started on the front lawn and run out of gas while I was on the front driveway, sometime ago, I got a new gas can and filled it with gas. As hard as I tried, I couldn't pour gas in the lawnmower tank. Finally poured in an old container and then poured it into the lawnmower tank. I then mowed the front lawn, the east lawn, and most of the back lawn. Carol came out and reminded me that I was to take the car to Fillmore to get the front right fender fixed. The mechanics fixed it and I didn't cost me anything. I came home and finished mowing the lawn.

I mowed all of the lawns today.

I had a sweet potato for supper.  

The people at the garage the front fender on the right side.

A small topaz melon is in the above photo. It is a little larger than an olive.

Ice Cream Social

Church meeting went well. This evening we went to an ice cream social. It was hosted by the Harmon's and Hillestads. Some of our friends were there. I watered the baskets and tubs two times today.  I also watered the corn.  

Cleaned Garage Some

Carol found a large metal pot in the pantry that contained dried food. If we had to leave Holden in a hurry, we would have some food that would sustain us for some time. I looked in the garage for some more; I found a bag that was full of dried food and a bucket that contained other needed items. I picked some sweet corn and chucked it. Carol boiled it and then we cut the corn of the cob. It is now in the freezer. We had warm-ups for lunch. Later we rode around town. We drove around town and then went north on the frontage road. There was a flood of muddy water late last night.

This is a hippity-hop that some of our kids played with when they were younger.

Good Rain

After the chores were done, we drove to Fillmore and filled the car with gas. We then bought some groceries.  Some of our friends were also getting groceries. I found some figs in greenhouse six. Two of them were ripe, which I ate. They were good. I watered the plants on the front porch. It rained some this morning, and we had a good rain during the night. 

Payson & Linden

We headed north this morning. The traffic was pretty light all way to Payson. We stopped at the Payson temple and attended the session. After the session we stopped at Sam's Club and bought cat food and some groceries. We then drove to Linden and had a nice visit with Carol's sister, Nyleen. 

When we got home, I picked two ears of corn. We had a good rain for a few minutes. It didn't last long enough.

Nyleen had a beautiful flowering shrub. Carol picked three stems and brought them home.

 I watered the east lawn, and it took most of the day. I did a little weed eating. Carol went to her exercise class this morning.

Hospital

This morning after all morning the morning chores were done, Carol drove to the hospital for an MRI. It lasted for an hour. We then bought some groceries and then drove home. This afternoon, Todd Troseth came to measure for some railings for the front porch, 

Two of his boys came back and built a pattern for the railings.

The hibiscus flowers are really pretty.
