Moving Mountains Again!

Fact:  Tablespoon of soil has more organisms in it than there are people on earth

The day began early as we readied for the guys to move the seventeen yards of soil in our driveway. The rolling started early, and Carlos worked on the sprinkler/drip system.

The drip lines stay beneath the straw.

While the guys were working, Mary and I ran off and did a hairdo day! After my haircut, I returned home via the market and brought the guys a dozen donuts.

The magical thing about home is that it feels good to leave, and it feels even better to come back.

At noon Mary called, I picked her up, and we went to a local beer bar. We had a super lunch, more than we could eat, plus a glass of wine.

On the way home, we got to talk to David and Dianne, and the prognosis is looking better than initially anticipated. We are pleased about that!

We talked to Jan while at lunch.

What I love most about my home is who I share it with!!

We decided to go first class and have a buried valve container in each bed, complete with a spigot for a small hose should we need one. Now we can control the water flow down to a nats-ass remotely. The system even talks to the internet and increases or decreases watering times depending upon the weather!

Each planter has its own valving/pressure regulator system, which can be controlled individually from the phone!

The guys did not finish until about 4:00 PM, and we spent another hour cleaning up the boxes we had received from Amazon. By 5:00 PM, we were officially pooped, and in fact, we hit the sack at 7:00 PM after talking to Robin and Lisa C.

About Paul

Just an old retired guy trying to finish out my last years on this planet. I lost my best friend and wife in early 2020. I was blessed again by reconnecting with Dr. Mary Côté, a long-time friend. Mary and I got married July 28th, 2021, and are enjoying life together and plan to spend the rest of our lives being a blessing to our friends and family.
