I'm sure it helped all the planting I did this weekend, but yesterdays cloudy dreary day led to Thunder and lighting at 4 a.m. and then again at about 6 a.m.....but luckily neither time did it last very long....or I fell back to sleep fast.
They say it will be 85 today, but I won't believe that till I see it either, yesterday it never made it to 60 on my thermometer outside the cabin window. Don't have big plans for the day, have to run into town and get some laundry detergent so I can wash some bedding that Annie found in the boat house that needs it. I may then leave fairly early in the afternoon, and do some planting of my front step pots with the flowers I didn't have room for up here.
Yesterday, even in the cold, Jack and Nick came up with their new Jet Skiis and talked Nicole, Allie and Matthew into taking a ride. Okay, Matthew didn't need any encouraging, he didn't even think it was cold when he did ride. The rest were freezing but they did it anyway. Some excitement for the otherwise cold and dreary day.
Annie and Doug continued to work like Dogs (where does that saying come from? Do Dogs work?) anyway, they worked really hard, Saturday they had a huge bomb-fire and got rid of a lot of brush from the fallen trees that went down last fall. Doug mowed and weed wiped everything standing a foot off the ground, and it all looks so nice. Then they moved down by the lake and cleaned out the gardens and shoveled and swept off the patio of the sand that washes down the hill all the time. After that Annie tackled the boat house which hadn't been touched since last fall, and she said it was a pit!! But everything is sparkling clean now! We should be all set for the 4th of July Week gatherings. My thanks to both of them....and the rest of you guys owe them big time.
Oh, I added a picture to my blog later yesterday, so go back and check that out. That's me and Tommy 48 years ago when he was about a month old...probably 4th of July Weekend, 1963. Love and prayers, m
