Visit Dr Brown and Quick trip to Provo

I had a Doctor's appointment with Dr. Brown at eleven this morning.  I worked some in Robert's garden, and did the watering.  Our sweet corn in the south garden north of the beans looks a little yellow.  Several years ago I got some organic liquid fertilizer. I mixed it with water in a watering in a watering can.  I pored some down both rows of corn and then turned the water down those two rows.  I will watch it for the next couple of weeks to se if it has helped some.  If this doesn't work, there are two other options.  First.  Epson Salt.  Second: I have some other liquid organic fertilizer that I haven't used that was given to me several years ago. 

It was 10:15 when we headed out to Fillmore.  I reported in, and after a short wait we were directed to an exam room.  The nurse weighed me in, checked my blood pressure and my 02 level. (155lbs, 100 over 55, and 95).  Dr. Brown came in latter and asked me all the question.  He did a lot of resistance test, and basically past them.  He hold my hands down and I lifted up.  He held my hand in and I pushed out.  He held my hands out and I pushed in. 

He recommended physical therapy.  We are going to start that tomorrow.

As soon as we got home, Carol made two cheese sandwiches.  We ate them and headed for Provo.  Carol bought a lot of small toys for our family reunion Saturday.  At Sam's Club we bought a lot of hard goods for the house.  It was little after six thirty when we got home.

We have had some rain, but very light.

Temple Dream

I dream every night, and most of them are gone from my memory by the time I wake up.  Early this morning this amazing and a little frightening dream showed up.  I, we, were at the temple.  A large, maybe fifty or so group of hippie and that is the best way that I can describe them, were at the temple.  They took control of it.  They had various, strange, hair styles.  The room looked more like a stake house than any room in the temple.  There was a large stage at the end of the cultural hall that could accommodate them with plenty of room to spare.  They began to dance and sing.  They performed as if dance had been carefully choreographed.

They were truly desecrating the temple and no one made any efforts to stop them.  After some time I tried to stop them, but they kept one doing their weird dancing.  finally, I pulled all the plugs that operated the music, microphones, and what not.  The vigorously complained and began to leaved.  That is when I woke up.

Trip to Riverton

This morning we had planned to be up at 5:30 to get things ready for attending Larry and Leslie's mission report in the Riverton Farm Ward.  We didn't get up until six.  We really hurried to get the fruit ready.  We had melon, watermelon, and grapes.  With not much traffic we were able to get there with twenty minutes to spare.

After a good meeting we went to their house for something to eat.

We then got home at 1:30 where I watered the nursery.

I had pulled some carrots and later I cut them up to be boiled.  I turned the gas on and the began reading in facebook.  I read a cheap way to heat your house.  I clicked on it and listen to the presentation.  It said that I would be told how to do it in three minutes.  after five minutes it still was going.  I thought I would listen to the end.  After 30 minutes I shut it off.  In the end I would have to by a kit that had a video and plans to build it.  It didn't show the cost, but I bet that it would be as much as $50.  While I was doing this the water boiled away and the carrots were burnt and took a long time to clean the pan.

A Full Day's Work

There were three cabbage plants growing in house one.  Most all the plants have died for the lack of water but these cabbage plants have been watered several times a day this month.  I planted them in the garden where the peas had been growing.

I added two more outlets to the north garden watering system.  I extended the pipe 3 1/2 feet to the north.  I can now water without having to remove the hoses.

I staked up an other row of corn to protect it from the wind.  I can do it fairly quickly.  I put a tall stake on each end of the row.  I then stretch bailing twine between the two stakes about eighteen inch above the ground.  These are pulled tight.  I put three shorter stakes in the row between the two pieces of twine.  The twine at the point of the stakes is looped over the stake.  The corn is now secured.

There were some new runners on our strawberry plants.  I secured them with staples made out of electrical wire.

I put in a rain bird sprinkler on the west end of the back lawn.  It is not the style that I wanted, but it will work. 

Removed two dying tomato plants and replaced them with two new ones that were growing on the bench north of house two.  One five inch pot hat a cherry tomato, a brandy wine tomato and an egg plant.  We had potted some perennials using soil from a germination tray which previously tomatoes in it.  The other one had a black cherry plant in it.  This will be an interesting project to watch.  Both plants have never been in a greenhouse and thy should grow without any transplant shock or sun burn.
