Saturday

Well the morning started with a 5:15 wake up when Sam fell out of bed. He quickly went back to sleep after Amy consoled him. I never went back to sleep as we were planning on waking them at 6.  Tyler wanted to leave around 7 and get an early start and its a good thing they left when they did as Amy just called and they were just leaving Cracker Barrel in Ocala which is still an hour and half from Seminole; so it will be around 9 PM before they get home. We had such a grand time and Sam was just super. He is such a busy body and just loved being outside in the yard plus he spent lots of time on the porches with his cars and trucks. He is very inquisitive and wants to know how everything works. Ava and Sam both loved the golf cart and Sam loved the riding lawnmower(tractor he called it).

 Well after a melancholy start watching them roll down the drive we got busy and cleaned house and Nancy washed and hung 2 loads of towels and I rested with my leg elevated and iced. I put a strain on it this week as it wasn't completely healed so today I rested it a couple times as well as wrapped it in ice. It feels some what better already. It was a pleasant start of the morning with temps in the high 60's and it eventually reached the middle 80's by the afternoon but has now cooled off to the high 70's. We are supposed to get some late evening showers but it doesn't as if it that will happen as of right now.

We had leftovers for lunch and then Nancy made a nice fresh salad for supper which was cool as we didn't have to warm up the cabin anymore than necessary. I spoke with Paw Paw last night and he said it was 100 degrees in Winchester on Friday which is very unusual and supposed to be even hotter today. We sure hope it cools off for next Saturdays outside wedding with niece Kelly Dillon which we will be attending in the Winchester area. We will get another grand baby fix as Annsley and Gabriel will come back with their parents son Bobby and Jill after the wedding on Sunday for a 4 or 5 days here at the cabin.

Well that's about it for today as I checked the lower garden which is about half weeds but the cucumber and squash plants look to be blooming and a few of the green bean plants(which are about a 1/2 dozen all total) are actually sending out runners. The cherry tomato plants have actually set some fruit so there is some promise there for some home grown 'maters. The corn is growing as well so I'm still dreaming of some buttery ears of corn in a month or so. LATER
