My Greatgrandson Cayden
My greatgrandson Cayden just over 1 year old.
He looks so much better than he did a month
after birth. Filled out and very healthy.

Street side improvements
The street side of the house looked horrible
so I used the dozer blade on my tractor to
remove the imbedded rock and weeds.
I had 5 yards of gravel dumped and spread
it with the blade and a hand rake. I think
the finished product came out quite well.
The area is 60' X 9' and took me two days
work to finish.

Found this little animal on the lawn in the
backyard. It is a mole and has done quite
a bit of damage to the lawn and my garden.
Look closely at the little paddle paws. The
ground here is filled with rocks yet he is
able to dig a tunnel, push the dirt and rocks
up through a hole he bores in the yard. The
evidence is a mound of dirt/rocks. I use
ammonia to kill them off by pouring it in
the tunnel once I dig down and find it.

Backyard Retreat
Wednesday, August 12, 2009
This is some of the bounty from the garden
It will eventually give us tomatoes of various
sizes and colors plus cucumbers. We have
been harvesting yellow and green beans
for quite some time now. Waiting for the
green peppers to get larger before plucking
them.
Please notice the jacket on during August.
Managed to put these two chairs together. Next
I will try to build a 2X4 platform in the backyard
under a tree on which to set them.

In Memorium 6 June 2009
We lost Missy today to kidney and liver
failure. Our little girl is gone forever.
We will miss the laughs, smiles and the
howling from the couch every evening to
see if I would join her. Many tears have
been shed and many more will follow.
