April Fools

 

This morning starts a regular day. I showered, dressed, and turned on the morning news. I fed the cats. Carol was up a little later, she showered also. I didn't realize that it is April 1 today. It is a tradition to trick someone. We had breakfast. We watched some of the morning TV shows. It has been raining. The frying pan ln the patio has one half inch of water in it. It was still raining when I went to the post office, it was still raining. When I got back home, I walked out to greenhouse five and watered all of the plants.  When I got back to the house, Carol made sandwiches for lunch.

Another Trip

 

I was a little late getting up this morning. If fed the cats, We Had breakfast. Watched the morning shows. For lunch we gad warmups for lunch. It was close to two when we picked up Elisha and took her to the drug store. Carol bought some birthday cards. Alisha bought a few groceries. We waited in the car for her.  She wanted to treat us with Ice cream cones. We went ice cream store. Elisha ordered one large cone, and we ordered two small ones. Alisha paid for them. We then took Elisha to her home. She soon rang the doorbell. She had left her phone in our car.  We went home and had been home for just a few minutes. The doorbell rang again; CR Charlesworth was at the door. We bought some groceries that he was selling.

Trip Fillmore

 I fixed three bowels of old fashion oatmeal mush. While this was cooking, I fed the cats. We ate breakfast and watched some of the morning TV shows. I watered the plants in greenhouse five. After lunch we drove to Fillmore and filled the car with gas. Then we stopped at Stuart Electric. I have some earphones that wouldn't work. I thought that I would buy some new ones. He made a couple of adjustments and they work perfectly. We then went to the Fillmore market and bought some groceries. While there we met our neighbor who lives across the road from us and a former Sunday school teacher. We then drove home, Carol is watching the TV show, The Wind at My Back. While she was doing this, I watched some TV videos testing out the volume. I was able to do it. 

I filled in the hole west of the hen house. I took the weed eater all the tall grass away from the hole that I filled with dirt.
Here is another picture where l cut away the weeds.

Finishing Touches

 

Richard stayed with us last night and was still in bed. I fed the cats and started the old fashion oatmeal mush. Richard got up and left. He planned on going to the zoo in Salt Lake City. He soon came back. It was too far to drive. Cost of gas was too high. I fixed him breakfast. Later he helped fix the shower curtain. Carol washed the sheets. I helped her make the beds. There was a big tree that was laying in the path on the way to the well. He got my electric chain saw. We got a long extension cord. He plunged one end in a power box in house five. He soon cut out a piece of that dead tree. Richard and Carol have been watering the front lawn. I watered the pomegranate bush a big picture of water, I turned some water on some fruit trees east of greenhouse five. It took some of the water that was running the front lawn.  Tiger, our cat, was a sleep on the roof.

The photo shows the section of the tree that was removed,

We after breakfast we drove to Lindon.  We got off at 1600 north. The road is under construction. It took a long time to get to Nyleen's house. we picked up Carol's sister, Nyleen. We had an enjoyable time. We took Nyleen home. She had a sack lunch for us. We stopped at Sam's Club for some groceries and a bag of cat food. There was a lot of traffic going south. There was no mail. When we got home I put my suit away and put on my overalls. Then I unloaded the car. I watered the plants in greenhouse five.
