Happy Easter

Post by Spike188 »

It is a good Friday and Good Friday. It got up to 47 deg here this afternoon but is sitting back on freezing this evening.
I have garlic that did not get planted in the fall and today would have been a great day to do it.

We also have a yam that was started from a cutting a month ago, but it should stay indoors for another month or until the soil temperature warms enough.

Life always catches me between dreams and hope. Dreams of getting garlic into the ground each fall and missing the opportunity, then catching a spring planting for a late harvest. When the yam sent up shots in the dark pantry, the kid in me said, "lets try planting it in door and transplanting it." Our yard and house are full of dreams, CCI tractors, home updating, and this summer canning peaches and tomatoes. But this weekend, strep throat is keeping me house bound while M gets to go to Easter functions and family gatherings.

But I am Thankful for the life I have, It is springtime, and new life is just ahead.

Have a happy Easter weekend.

Eugene and M

Hope you get better soon Eugene. Happy Easter weekend.
I had a good Friday too. Spent most of the day dragging sons driveway on the TEA20 Ferguson tractor and the Ford 1210 tractor. Was a great day. The high temperature today was 8C, but with 50/60 kilometre west winds. So not that comfortable.

@Spike188 I hope you feel better quickly.
I know how you feel about being between dreams and hope. I sometimes get overwhelmed with all the things I want to do and can’t get too. I try to enjoy the things I can get to and not worry about what I run out of time for, or physically just can’t do. It’s easier said than done! Right now of course getting back on your feet is most important.

I’m with you, I’m thankful for what I have too!

Happy Easter everyone!

Get well soon, @Spike188!

And Happy Easter to all as well.

Our grandkids are all away for the holiday, way up north in Indiana. I'm supposed to work on some gas pipes in a crawlspace today, but it's dark and raining out there. I'm not too excited about it.

But my wife and I will celebrate tomorrow with my extended in-laws and our son. And I'm grateful for my family and all my blessings, and for what Easter is all about. He is risen indeed!

Happy Easter!

Wishing all of you a very Happy Easter... another chance to gather with family and friends, give thanks for good things in life, reflect on another "not so normal" winter and the hopes that spring weather will be just right for planting and working with (or on... :headbash: ) our tractors...

@Spike188 Hope you are feeling better soon...

Happy Easter. Should be having an egg hunt with the kids this morning. Our house was egged by the girl scouts last night just before 10pm. My wife gave the girl scouts a $20 donation and in exchange the girls scouts came and put eggs outside for my kids to find.
