More TREES??
With the warmer weather upon us I get the itch to plant and nurture a few more trees! So, up early and off we go! Time to transplant another 20+ trees onto the acreage. The weather was a little cloudy which made for a excellent retrieval. Not so HOT! These little babies came from just north of Burntstick Lake. A busy little road pointed us right to the perfect location. A power line right-of-way where the trees would either be mowed or sprayed. Our new additions won’t know what hit them with the extra care and attention that they are going to receive.
A very sad Mother’s Day!
This mornings silence was broken with a call that my brother, Jim, had passed away!! So many emotions run through my veins in such a short amount of time! So much sadness and at the same time, a welcoming comfort that he is no longer in pain. He fought a long hard battle and was so accepting of what was possibly going to happen. His acceptance offered so much reassurance that he was going to be okay. He peacefully passed away at home.
Goodbye for now…… Until we meet again 🍻
Love this time of year…
The warm weather is upon us and this time of year is so optimistic. You work the flowerbeds, you uncover the roses, you plant a few bulbs and hope for the best! The rest is up to Mother Nature 🤔
Getting my hands dirty!
This year I’m going to try and propagate my red roses 🌹! I guess I will find out whether it will work or not in about a month 😀
Power Rake Day!! 14c 🍻
Well I received my power rake blades this past Thursday and I couldn’t wait to get them installed and get at the lawn for 2022. Sunday morning and I got the itch to get at the mower. Installed the new blades and thought I would try them out. Hahaha!! Once in the seat I couldn’t get off. 3.1 acres later and the acreage was done in one direction. Then I run over it at the other angle and wow!! Looks so good 😀
Sun is shining and now I have time for a beer around the fire!!
My roses 🌹
Spring is slowly making its way to central Alberta so I thought it was time to wake up my roses!! What a pleasant surprise!!
Anticipating ….a Car Ride?
Well, Joanne needs a ride to Bentley to get her bike from Lynn and Randy’s storage unit and someone thinks that he is going!!
Such a good feeling!
Well, it was finally time to take the Corvette out for the summer of 2022. Within the first 30 seconds of hitting the highway, I was sideways! Cold tires + cold asphalt = possible rhubarb tasting!!! Not really a good feeling at 100 km an hour! I wasn’t even horsing around. Then off to Innisfail we went for a haircut. When I say we, I mean Swiffer and I. No haircut for Swiffter today. He’s is booked for tomorrow!
Spring is a coming!
Wow, with weather like this you know spring is just around the corner! Highs of 8°C today 10 tomorrow and 15 for Wednesday! Other than about three weeks of -40 weather around Christmas time it has actually been a very decent winter. I must say it’s almost time to get the Corvette on the road…
