Good morning, hope this weird weather isn’t getting you out of whack. Snow and cold one day, sunny and warm the next.

Hope that everyone had a safe week. We received a little sleet Monday, but it soon melted. I am going out to the greenhouse and put more dirt on the small plants. Some of my plants are up about three inches or more.

Hello from Zack. Can you believe this weather? One week we have sunny warm days and next week we got snow.

Hello again, I hope you are all doing well. Jason doesn’t feel too good tonight but hoping he will be better tomorrow.

Joe Reed and I made a trip to Mountain Home for a storm door and 4-wheeler parts. Had a good visit and lots of laughs. First to Wal Mart for a new gas can and carburetor cleaner. Joe did some shopping too. Then we delivered a lawn mower. The lady was so thrilled but a little nervous about it, of course I told her to get on and take off which she did. Then to Home Depot for my doors. The salesman was very lucky I was in a good mood, as he explained one door was to keep bugs out and one was for weather. I try to be nicer when Joe is around, don’t know why because he doesn’t care and would only laugh. A good lunch after a trip to Harbor Freight, my favorite store ever. We had Popeye’s chicken.

Hello once again! That is the kind of snow I like, here today, gone tomorrow! Yep! It sure was a beautiful snow, I don’t say that very often because I really don’t like snow very much, but I told Ray that it looked like a big soft fluffy blanket. It really was pretty. We had about 3 inches here.

I found this post that I not get to the paper in time because of the weather and the up close encounter that I had with Covid. I hope I do not have to ever have that experience again. While I know and am thankful that I made it thru the time ok I just as rather not have to go thru that again. Thank the Lord for bringing me out the other side ok. Prayers for those who are still having it and prayers for this to pass out of our land soon. The October paper of 1893 told that Albert Arnold had returned form he western tour recently.
