Another beautiful day in Montana. After our walk we loaded up and headed into town—Michael needed to pick up some things at Steve’s for the project and Steve was donating some kind of tractor/mower blade to Michael’s treasure pile. We also borrowed Jeane and Steve’s garden tiller. I got to visit with Jeane while the “stuff” was loaded.
Michael needed parts at CarQuest and I needed a few groceries so he dropped me at the local IGA. When I finished he wasn’t back yet so I walked across the street, sat on the curb in the sunshine and had a little snack (I was starving, it was after 1pm and we hadn’t had lunch)—just as I sat down, our friend Kelly with her daughter Bonnie drove up and came over to visit with me—it is great to live in a small town!
The plan was to till the small garden and get some lettuce and radishes planted but unfortunately mechanic Mike could not get the tiller running—Steve and Jeane said it hadn’t been run in 2-3 years.
So, with time on my hands (yea, right) I decided to clean out all the flower beds and the yard. That took me all afternoon and then some! Emmi was a big help bringing me many sticks. After I got all the trash hauled to the burn pile, I washed the little sports car—we think we may go for a ride tomorrow.
And now I am enjoying a glass of wine, I am pooped!
The house is cool in the mornings, it has been warm enough to not have a fire at night. Emmi finds the sunbeams and curls up.
Mike will probably have that tiller running soon. I have the same luck with "Mechanic Cliff" He will NOT give up on anything and most of the time he wins in the end. He always says he'll fix it or fix it so nobody else can!!
ReplyDeleteJanna, could you send me your email address. I lost it and I don't trust to send the recipe through Blogger because it did not work before.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you deserve that glass of wine!
