We made it to Sunday again and all seems well here at the Ford Homestead. We would like to wish each of you a good morning, or good day, depending on when you get out of bed.
Allow me to comment on yesterday: our tree man Alex did a good job and he learned a few things since this was his first tree trimming event. The two trees we worked on were both pecan trees. Now I said “we” worked on, I supervised and he worked, although I did help carry the cut limbs to the trailer. We were able to get limbs away from the power line that runs from the pole to our house and a bunch of low hanging limbs. To me, the trees look better now.
I did not take Alex to the star coffee place when I picked him up, as he had food for his breakfast with him. Yep, he was eating breakfast as we drove to our house.
We did get the limbs all cleaned up and loaded on the trailer and I will need to put straps on the limbs to secure them on the trailer today. I believe it is about three weeks before we can take these limbs to the Hewitt chipper.
The back yard has some leaves on the ground and it looks kind of ugly. No, all the leaves have not started falling yet, just the pecan tree leaves in our yard. I could use the lawn mower to vacuum them up, but that would be work for this ole retired person. I will likely get outside and attempt to pick up any small debris left over from yesterday’s cutting. Alex did use the leaf blower to clean the drive way of the leaves that were there.
After the cutting work, my favorite wife and I took Alex with us to the sandwich place for lunch. We were able to get him home safely and when I returned home, I took a short nap. My favorite wife and I did wash the dog yesterday before we were able to sit outside, the neighborhood was quiet and the Crows did not make any noise yesterday. It was warm but not too hot, heck they are saying we might have a chance for rain this week, and that would be good.
I think we are going to the cracker store this morning for breakfast, and if we go early, we will not need to wait in line to be seated. When we go for lunch, there is always a long wait to get a table.
Well, I guess you know all I know, so I will stop for now, we hope you have a good day and please stay safe in all you do.
Alex be good!
Senior ole person who needs to think about eating breakfast, Don the Ford
May today be better than your best day, but not as good as tomorrow!
