            Good morning to you and also to others, we hope your morning is starting off well, and the day is one of your best days.

            What did the Don get to do yesterday? He was allowed to pick up sticks from the front yard and the back 40, and it took a while as there were plenty out back. I still need to load the large limbs on the ole trailer and that means more work for and ole senior person. The weather is getting better so I might be able to work outside for a little while today. Now both the front and back yards need to be mowed, and I don’t know if I will wait for Saturday, and our yard man Alex, or if I will need to do the work myself.

I noticed that the ditch is again grown weeds so I will need to get the weed killer out and do some spraying. I had talked with one of the fellows at the city about the weeds in the ditch and he more or less indicated that they would be spraying the weeds, but I have not seen them in the ditch at all.

            I did ride the Fords new trike for a short trip around the neighborhood and I peddled a big part of the way. Now that peddling, is with peddle assist which means, I provide about half the power and the peddle assist provides the other half. As you can see, one can get some exercise without overexerting himself. Before you ask, yes you can peddle without the assist and you get more exercise, or you can use the throttle and let the motor do all the work. 

            I did remove some spider webs from the security cameras, actually there are two that usually get the webs and there are just a few webs, but they show up during the nighttime. 

            I did get some fire ant killer, and I opened it in the office. I did not spill any, but it stinks. I then took the killer to the garage and the office still stinks. I sprayed some room spray, and it helped a little, but I can still smell the fire ant killer.

            I went to the Bible study yesterday evening and as usual, we had some very interesting discussions even though our normal group leader was not there. We have a couple more meetings before spring break.

            I have a couple photos for my enjoyment. The first is of the trees and that they are all with leaves or starting to get the leaves, even the pecan tree, and a very blue sky from yesterday afternoon. The second photo is of a rose which is starting to bloom.

            I guess that will be it for now, have a good day and please be safe in all you do.

 Is spring back?

May today be better than your best day, but not as good as tomorrow!
