Well, yesterday I said I’d get a photo of Johnny today since he escaped my camera lens during the big family gathering. Fortunately, when I arrived at Mattie and Jim’s today, Johnny and Wayne were busy tearing out a fence in the backyard.
Of course, this required much discussion…
And ripping out posts…
And then replacing posts for tomato cages. But no need to hammer those into the ground by hand when you can use a tractor to push them in. I’m not sure this is one of the recommended uses of a tractor, but it did work.
However, Leah was sure it was a little off…
It didn’t seem to me that her help was appreciated.
Wayne did take a little time to play with Sam, who liked to fetch the discarded chunks of wood and then chomp on them for awhile. Not sure what was so fun about that, but he was having a great time at it, so you can’t argue with success.
But that was just a brief break. They got the fence out and all but a couple of the holes filled. They had a list of things they wanted to accomplish this weekend and most got done. Painting the porch didn’t happen, though, because it was just too chilly to be doing that. It seems Easter Sunday will be a little nippy tomorrow.
Meanwhile, Jim shocked his granddaughter, Leslie, today when she walked in and saw him on the computer. He has only gotten interested in the computer in the last few months. I’m proud to say he’s a regular reader of this blog. Well, at least that’s what he tells me. I guess your brother has to say such a thing.
Leslie took a picture herself. I decided it was a good idea to do the same. Of course, maybe it’s easier to get people to read when they’re reading about themselves. That’s a good trick for me to remember for the future…
