Stoop, bend, pull, dig….Stoop, bend, pull, dig… Stoop bend, pull, dig
That’s been our routine the last three days. Plants have been pruned, dug up and replanted, a lot of weeds and winter killed parts of plants cut and pulled, and baby pine trees pulled up. We only took one set of before and after pictures of a tiny portion of one garden.
So much work going on we forgot about the picture taking! Roy is now returning all the gardening tools we borrowed from Harriet and George so the yard work is officially done! The finished result looks good but should look great when all the cut back plants start to bloom and the flowers are in abundance again!
We’ve been able to see some of our neighbors and catch up with them. We’ve also enjoyed getting to know the lovely family that is renting our home. Their children played with Madisyn a couple of times and she really enjoyed that. Madisyn was amazed at getting to watch the chickens lay eggs and getting to collect them with the children.
Their dog Dixie enjoyed climbing all over me while I pulled weeds which I loved since it reminded me of how our dog Nacho use to do it when she was alive. Nacho would have loved traveling with us and we often think of how much we would have loved having her with us on the road.
On Tuesdays the Hammond Chick-Fil-A has family night where they have a different craft for the children to make each week. This week’s craft was a clay pot that the children colored and they filled with dirt and a plant. Madisyn was with us Tuesday so we took her there and she made one for Chip’s girlfriend Kim’s birthday! The pink Chick-Fil-A cow was also there and took a picture with our little princess!
UPDATE!
In just two weeks RVillage has grown to 3,605 members! It’s definitely the place to be for RVers!
Roy recently re-created our business cards which we use to share our blog and contact information with RVers we meet. He added our RVillage contact information to the card and a beautiful rainbow background. Now instead of our cards being okay, they are very colorful and are printed on photo paper! I love his graphic abilities especially when he uses it for something like this!
Looking forward to a couple of restful days before we hit the road again. Ya’ll have a blessed Thursday, and ya’ll please come back again!
