Checked a lot of things off the list today. The highlight was digging a hole to put some concrete chunks in. I normally wouldn’t go this route, but I have been unable to find a place to dump it. I don’t know that the current hole will hold as much as I would like, so I might have to expand it a bit.
Today our friends Tim and Emilie, along with their three kids, came for a visit. It was a wonderful time. We had a new recipe of turkey and lentil chili for lunch, which was delicious. The kids got to ride around on the tractor and add to the bonfire. They had a wonderful time. After I guests left and Luke made it clear that he didn’t want to take an afternoon nap, we went for a walk on the greenway in town, along the river. The weather was lovely and it was so nice to be out. Dinner was pasta, fueling up for a busy week.
The weather here is glorious at the moment. Sunny with a slight breeze. A light jacket comes in handy unless exerting oneself. Fortunately for me the tractor did most of the exerting. We didn’t have much time, but did manage to add considerably to the burn pile. I hope to burn tomorrow. There shouldn’t be much wind then. I also managed to finally get rid of the old HVAC unit that had been in the backyard since we tore down the house. I ran some other errands as well. This afternoon I spent watching Luke. We had fun playing together. After Liz got done working we went on a nice walk around the property.
