Dug the Weeds

 I went out greenhouse one as soon as breakfast was over.  I was going to hang the tomato plants but instead I went down the row digging weeds on both sides of the row, As soon as it was getting hot I came back to the house and watched a couple of TV shows.  We then picked up Alisha and drove to Fillmore. We took Alisha to the Fillmore market.  We went on to Loves for gas.  We went back to the market  

Fifth Sunday

Carol and I fasted this morning.  The governor of Utah suggested that everyone should fast requesting that we would get some rain.  The speakers in sacrament meeting did a good job.  There was no Sunday.  Being the fifth Sunday, the young women and their leaders spoke and did a good job.  After dinner we watched some channel eleven programing.  In the afternoon I watered the corn and the tomato plants.  The corn was really dry.  

I set in the shade while the water was running. There were six rows of corn.

Topaz

I went out greenhouse one this morning right after breakfast.  

Tomato Plants

When I got up this morning the baby hummingbirds are gone.  After breakfast I went to work with the weed eater.

This evening, I dug the weeds around the tomato plants in greenhouse one. It is really hot.  I could do more, but it was too hot.

I got three tomato plants ready to climb the white twine. I only did two of them.

I got some Toma hooks that were in a big tub in the south garden.  Some are on this upside-down tub.

There are some peach trees in the south orchard.  This tree has two peaches.

I cut the wild rye in the orchard.

Our pomegranate bush has several fruits and many buds.
 

Timpanogos Temple

 

It was seven when we left Holden this morning.  Out drive was uneventful and most of the traffic lights were green.  We stopped to pick up Nyleen, but she wasn't feeling well.  We then drove to the Mount Timpanogos temple.  After the session we went back to Nyleen's home.  Carol changed into her street clothes.  We then dove straight home.  On the way home we ate most of the sack lunch that she prepared.  Later in the afternoon I put the east side pipes away.  The shrubs were so thick I got some clippers and cut them away.  

Irrigation

After my shower this morning, I went up to the ditch and turned the water into yard.  I got the water running on the east lawn.  I then came into the house for breakfast.  Then it was back to the water. When I finished, I watered the back yard lawn.  At the same time, I was watering the garden.   It was a little after two when I finished.  I was really tired after I finished, I then turned back to my neighbor. 

Tonight I watered the sweet corn.

When I finished, I let the water run to a neighbor's yard west of us.

I am putting the pipes away

I used the shovel handle to hold up one pipe.  I can the slide the two pipes together.

Here are some pipes hooked together.

This the end of the front sidewalk.  I built a dam to keep the water on the lawn.  There are two hibiscus plants that got a good watering.

Ready

This morning, I went out with the weed eater and cut down a lot of the tall grass on the south part of the yard in preparation of the irrigation turn tomorrow morning, we also put out the irrigation pipes

Carol helped me put out the irrigation pipes.

I took the weed eater and cleaned the irrigation ditch.

I sprayed the front lawn, the back lawn and part of the north garden for grasshoppers.

Carol is running water on the east end of the front lawn.  If you find this interesting, please comment,

Mow & Plant

I made old fashion oatmeal mush this morning. I found a bowel of mush in the fridge.  I want have to make any mush for three days.  We drove to Fillmore for gas and groceries.  

Carol has been watering the front lawn.  Here she is moving the hose.

Two of Ray's came from two different directions met in front of our house.  One of them parked their car. It will be parked here for a day or two.

I weeded in the dahlia garden. It looks so much better.

I plant topaz melon seeds in greenhouse six this morning.

I put four seeds in a hill. I took picture but I can't see any.  I also mowed the lawn

Sunday

After breakfast this morning, I watered everything in the front yard.  I read the lesson material. We watched some channel eleven programing. The speakers did a good job.  The person wo taught the priesthood lesson was supper prepared. We had warmups for dinner.  I had a roast beef sandwich for supper.  I watered the onions after supper.

Party Time

It was about 9:30 when we left Holden.  We stopped at Costco to have Carol's hearing aides adjusted. Carol made an appointment for three this afternoon. We had the address, but it still took us a long time to find it.  We then went to Nyleen's house.  She said that we could stay at her house.  We decided that we wouldn't.

Timpanogos Temple

 

It was seven when we left Holden this morning.   There was no problems with the traffic.   We picked up Nyleen Batty went straight to the Temple.  I parked the car.  I walked through the temple door.  Carol was there with Nyleen.  Nyleen was laying on the sofa.  She was not feeling well.  After the session we took Nyleen home.  Nyleen asked me to give her a blessing which I did.  She gave us a sack lunch which we ate on the way home.  I watered the plants.  

The Doctor & the Dentist

This morning, I watered the plants on the front porch and in the gardens.  Carol had an appointment with Dr Grose this morning 10:30. We left Holden and arrived at the clinic.  We were early. we waited in the waiting room.  A nurse took us into the exam room.  We then waited some more.  We then went to the drug store to get a prescription.  We waited some more. 

I made my way to the furnace and removed the old filter and replaced itwith the new filter,  This is a photo of the dirty used filter.

One of the cats had caught this Baltimore Oriel.

The water was running out at this drip tape connection.  I turned off the water in greenhouse five and hooked it back together again.  There is a hose bibb in house six.  I turned it on again and it blew apart.

Yesterday, I pulled up the weeds in greenhouse two.  I found the pitchfork and this afternoon I raked up the weeds.

This Mormon cricket, somehow got in the cat's water.  This afternoon, Carol went to the dental office, and they attached her tooth.

I would get wild rye seeds in my socks when i would turn on or turn off the water,   I cut down all of the weeds around the gate valve.

This coupler come apart in the onion plants.  I fixed it.

Sometimes I go in the shed.  I cut down all of the grass and weeds going to the entrance.
