I came across these 8N ads at mom's today.

Tomatoes are still little.

The garden is finally drying out, though this corner is still wet.

New road!
 

May 27, 2025

The lines got painted on the road today.
 

May 26, 2025

We got the potatoes, corn, and beans planted today.
 

May 25, 2025

We got the garden disced. It's barely dry enough but looked decent after I did it in the morning and my husband ran it in the evening. We think we'll be able to plant Monday.
 

May 24, 2025

I got a scanner which can scan documents and photos quickly. I scanned the 52 page recipe collection in a minute or two and saved it in a folder I can share.
 

May 23, 2025

Some gravel got spread at our driveway and mailbox.
 

May 22, 2025

I've got a collection of recipes from my mom's side of the family. The corn cob jelly and apple butter were sent in by my grandmother. I can't remember having corn cob jelly but plan to make some this summer.

My husband is taking apart his tractor.
 

May 20, 2025

Today they laid down some gravel along the side of the road.
 

May 19, 2025

My husband wants to get this tractor running next.
 

May 18, 2025

My husband got new front tires for my tractor.
 

May 17, 2025

We got a nest of robins on our deck. They're getting crowded!
 

May 16, 2025

They paved the road today.  One dump truck had enough asphalt for about 200 feet of road.
 

May 15, 2025

The ferns are growing well... in the middle of the hayfield.
 

May 14, 2025

We went in a different door at the grocery store- I had forgotten they had gumball machines. They range in price from 25 to 75 cents.  When I was little they were 1, 5, 10, and 25 cents.
 

May 13, 2025

We should get some strawberries this year. Not enough for jelly but we'll have some to snack on.
 

May 12, 2025

Zucchini is started.

May 11, 2025

We planted a bunch of trees today- black walnut, pecan, butternut, and chestnut.
 

May 10, 2025

Both of my paw-paw trees are blooming this spring.
 

May 9, 2025

A pavement grinder trundled down the road this morning.
 

May 8, 2025

We got some of the yard mowed, but could not mow all of it as it was too wet.  They even made ruts through the gate.

My daughter added paper to his box. He crunched around in it for a while then passed out in bliss.

They opened their time capsule. It wasn't too bad considering how long it was in the ground. Two bags had gotten wet though. They had a small teddy bear, beads, rocks, and photos inside.

My son trimmed up his cactus today.
 

May 1, 2025

They did some work on the road today.

April 29, 2025

I think they might pave our road this year. The edges are crumbling away and there's chunks of asphalt in our yard so it needs it.

April 27, 2025

Nearly 8 years ago my daughter and two younger nephews buried a 'time capsule' with my parents. They weren't able to find it a few weeks ago but today my daughter managed to find where it was buried.  We'll have to get all three together to open it, hopefully next weekend.
 

April 26, 2025

My tomatoes and peppers are getting big.

A military plane flew by a few times.
 

April 13, 2025

We'll be mowing soon.
 

April 12, 2025

I got the tomatoes split up and ended up with two full flats.
