Sept 30th - Been A While

God is good!

It has been a long time since I've posted. I thought it was time to post a few photos and provide a few thoughts/comments/updates.

Kathy is doing great after her surgery. Hallelujah! We go to St. Louis Friday for a follow up with the surgeon and to get her staples removed.

Weather has been nice here, but DRY. I think it has been 3 weeks since I've mowed the lawn, not that I complaining about that.

I thought all the fish in our pond had died because the duck week had cut reduced the oxygen levels. All the big fish are dead but we do have small ones. I haven't noticed any catfish so far, which is fine with me. I wonder if the other ones were eggs that survived the time when the oxygen levels were so low. I still need to get another grass carp, but that can wait until spring.

I've been working for ARSEE/T&L some while here at home, 5-10 hours per week. I still enjoy it so I'll keep it up until ARSEE's work load gets back to normal, or until I get tired of it.

I've advertised the motorhome and CR-V on a couple of web sites. A lady may come from the Dallas, TX area to look at it this weekend. I've probably spent 4 hours, either on the phone or emailing her, to discuss the sale.

The photos aren't in any order.

Watching the construction from Kathy's room was interesting. They have 3 tower cranes working and are working 24 hours a day. When I took this photo there was a guy hanging out over the side of the building welding on a column and another, one up on the floor above him, doing something with a BIG torch.

Hot tub fun.


This was the view outside from my motel room window in St. Louis. This is not a parking lot, it is a traffic jamb on one of the main Interstates feeding into St. Louis. The morning we drove to St. Louis it took us less time to get the first 60 miles than it did the last 15. Makes me want to kiss the rural ground of central MO, but I'd much rather kiss the ground of rural TN <grin>. (Actually that isn't so. I wouldn't trade time with Kelsey and Lydia for anything.)

Picking cucumbers with Grammy. We have NEVER had cucumbers produce before. We might get a couple and then the vine would die. This year Kathy has given me 2 bags to give away at church, and she has given away more to others.

Sun bathing after "swimming" in the hot tub. Notice the ice cream cone. Its a rough life.

Last Saturday the girls made tomato juice. I helped by cranking the Squeezo.

May God bless you and yours. He certainly has blessed me.
