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.
We drove to Fillmore before lunch and bought a few groceries.
This morning I watered the baskets and pots on the front porch. As soon as breakfast was over, we drove to the Payson Temple. We on the 9:40 session. Some of the same people the 9:40 session last week. Somebody had some kind of medical emergency. There was an ambulance at the temple. We called Carol's sister Nyleen Batty. We were going to visit her in Linden. She didn't answer. We stopped at Wendy's and got two hamburgers and drinks. We stopped in Nephi for ice cream cones.

I watered the baskets and tubes. I also turned the water on the kidney. The topaz melon continues to grow. There was a lot of squash.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
We took a bunch of vegetables to the post office. I didn't take a picture. I saw Calico, the cat that stopped on our front porch every day. I then drove to Fillmore and had them adjust the air in the tires. Carol watered the baskets and tubes on the front porch. She also started the water on the front lawn. I watered the front lawn, the back lawn, the lawn west of the driveway, and the lawn west of the garage. We went to the post office picked up the tote. All of the vegetables were gone except for a yellow crookneck squash and a zucchini. We tried to watch Rosemary and Tyme. The battery on the remote died. We finally got the TV to come on.
This morning we were home alone. I watered some plants in the yard. For breakfast we ate food that was left over from our trip. We attended our church meetings. The speakers and teachers were good. We ate some of the same thing for lunch. A few more leftovers for supper. I watered most of the back lawn this afternoon. I moved the sprinkler to different locations every half hour or so.
My alarm thinks it still is in Los Vegas and woke me up at 5:30. I went back to bed and slept too long. Carol got up and we fixed breakfast. Lisa got up. I watered the plants in out yard. I also started the water in the garden.
Late Wednesday night, Lisa came. After we exchanged greetings, we went to bed. Lisa slept in Richard's bedroom. Thursday morning, after breakfast we got in Lisa's car, and she drove to the home of Leslie Anne Belhasen. I took us most of the day. Lisa arranged for us to stay at a bed and breakfast in Las Vegas, Nevada. The funeral services were really good. I took a few pictures of the lunch that was served after the funeral.
They had a buffet table.

Carol went to her exercise class. I started the water on the dahlias. I also watered the potatoes. Carol made bacon and tomatoes sandwiches which were really good. We need to water the plants while we go to Las Vegas. We considered hiring someone, but they might fall on the front porch steps.
