Tuesday

Once again it was a usual morning with bright sunshine and clear blue skies as I pedalled out to the rec after my quiet time and bowl of oatmeal. We had 8 players initially for the first hour then some general players trinkled in until we had about 11 players for the day. Afterwards I headed home to work in the garden where I harvested the last of the lettuce from this garden before pulling up the parsnips which had turned woody as well as the Swiss chard where it too was attacked by root knot and some kind of fungus. We ate the last of it for supper tonight , man was that ever good. The heat is staying up in the day to the middle to high 80's so it won't be long before everything will be gone except for the peppers and herbs.

Amy brought the grand babies for lunch and we had a great time playing with them before she had to take Sam to have his blood drawn for some kind of a one year check-up. He had tears in his eyes and fell asleep on the way back to our place, he and I laid on the bed taking a small nap together. After the kids left we took off to run some errands at Sam's Club, Christian book store and Lowes for some fertilizer. We picked up a rotisserie chicken for supper that went along with our Swiss chard and wild rice. After the cleanup I spread some fertilizer on the yards and set the sprinkler while we took a walk in the hood. Not much else is going on except the Ray's are winning again over the Red Sox as I write. LATER
