I write all most every day of what goes on in our home in the garden and in the nursery. We are ordinance workers at the Manti Temple on the Tuesday morning shift and the Saturday evening shift. In addition there are several trips to Utah county a couple of times a month and a few short trips to other mountain west areas. Our family is most important to us. All of our children live in Utah except one who lives in Kentucky.

Irrigation
I turned down the water this morning at 6:50 this morning. I blocked it at Raymond's corner.
Here is where my first screen is located. I stops most of the junk that comes down the ditch.
I started on the back lawn first and got a good watering. The water was running to the raspberry bushes. I then put in a 90 degree elbow and turned the water toward our patio.
The pipes don't fit together so I just put them together.
I caught a lot of snails and put them in the pan and smashed them. The chickens have been eating them.
The screen has stopped a lot of junk. I can then throw it out.
A large electric conduit directs the water around the corner for part of the lawn which is a little higher.
Carol picked up about thirty snails and stuck them in a quart bottle. She then stuck them in the garbage, bottle and all.
We had a social and dinners at the home of Clair Harmon. There were a bunch of other people there.
I put together my first CSA bucket this afternoon. I got a picture but it was pretty bad. I didn't use it.
