Siblings Togather Again

This morning we drove to Orem, Utah, for lunch with my two brothers and three sisters and their spouses.  On the way up we stopped at Costco's, then Sam's Club, and then at Home Depot, and then at Deseret Bookstore.   By then it was time for lunch at the Chuck-O-Rama in Orem.

On the way home we stopped at Wal Mart to get a few Easter things.

When I got home I began working in the greenhouse.  I planted a long row of tomato plants. I needed a couple more plants so I used five of the smallest that is left.  These were in a six pack.

I had a whole bunch that were in quart bottles which were rooted.  These are in the same row and are eighteen inches apart.  I dug the holes with a trenching shovel.

Here is the row looking to the west.

The grape plants that I planted out a couple of weeks ago are really looking tough.  I ran water down the row to give them another drink.  I hasn't warmed up enough for any bud swelling.  The ones that I planted were in house two and well leafed out.  I think that they will be doing better by the middle of May.

I cut out a lot of weeds while waiting for the water run down the grape row.


Comments and questions are welcome.

Chuck-O-Rama 2

This morning we drove to Orem for lunch with Carol's Brothers and sisters.  It was snowing  a little when we left and between Nephi and Scipio we drove through rain, hail, and snow.  The roads were dry north of Nephi.  We stopped at Sam's club for a few things.  We stopped at the hospital to see Carol Gager.   She looked much better than when we saw her in the Fillmore hospital.  She had an operation last night.  She was still sedated and could not say much.

We then stopped at the Orem Wall Mart and bought some pole bean seeds and a large clay pot.  We were a little early at the Chuch-O-Rama.  Carol's sibling soon came.

Anne and Fred Belhasen, Gary and O'leah Peay were not there because of health problems.  From left to right: Nyleen Batty, Miles Batty, Leslie Peay, Larry Peay, Carol Johnson, Merrill Johnson, and Marge Woolston.

We were home a little after five.  Robert and Frank had left.  They prepared house on for the planting of more tomato plants.
