The Refrigerator Saga From A Far

As I mentioned yesterday, Tim and George took a road trip to Florida for two reasons.  The first reason was for Tim to spend Easter with our kids and the second was to deliver a refrigerator to George & Lisa’s daughter Kaitlyn.  The refrigerator was big and there is a story to tell as to how they delivered it.  The refrigerator would not fit through the front door until George took the handles off the fridge and the front door off its hinges.  Then once they got it into the house the real challenge began; getting the refrigerator into the kitchen.  It was a simple task that took quite some time to accomplish.  The handles are already off the door but that was not enough.  The doors and the freezer drawer were also removed.  Then the refrigerator was squeezed through the opening scraping paint off along the way.  They eventually got the refrigerator in the kitchen and set up but it was a process.  Good job guys!

They Made It To Florida!

Tim and George made it to Florida and, as far as I know, without any issues.  The refrigerator they brought did not, however, want to go into the house and they had quite a time getting it in but more on that in a later blog once I hear the whole story.  When Tim did get to our daughter’s house there was a certain little girl very happy to see him.  He gave her the wooden bunny I made for and she loved it.  Now Bumpa and Rory have the whole week end together.  To say I am bot jealous would by a lie but to say I am happy for the two of them is the truth.  Enjoy your visit together!

Road Trip For Tim And George

Tim & George are headed south for the week end.  They are pulling a trailer that has been loaded with a refrigerator that George is bringing his daughter Kaitlyn.  The refrigerator is big and after loading it in a trailer only had an inch to spare.  George and Lisa go big as the Easter bunny for Kaitlyn; hahaha.  Tim will be celebrating Easter with our kids and granddaughter and will be both Bumpa and Gamma.  He is also playing the Easter bunny for all!  Safe travels Guys!
Meanwhile, back at the farm, Lisa is in charge and has an added fur baby to take care of.  We left Shadow with Lisa so she has a full house with two dogs now and two cats.  Thank Lisa for taking care of our Shadow!

Preparing The Garden

It almost that time again when the choices have been made what to grow, the seeds will be ordered and soon the planting of the garden will begin. Before the planting begins some work needs to be done on the beds.  Tim and George went and picked up the horse manure and this year there will be one big bed used for planting while we let the four garden beds that have been used the last few years get a rest.  The four beds will be treated and covered with plastic while the big bed will get added nutrients to the soil to help the crops grow...we hope!  There will be the same challenges with animals and bugs competing with us to get the crops.  Hopefully, we will win!

Golf Season Has Begun

Tim and George played their first golf game in their league for the season.  They both played okay for being their first time out this year.  The morning started out a little cold but the sunshine warmed it up a bit by the end of their game.  They were suppose to start last Thursday but with the snow it was cancelled.  Tim got new Woods for Christmas and he likes them.  In time and a little more play under their belts this will be a good golf season for both!

Roxie Is Getting A Fence

Roxie is George and Lisa’s dog that found them a couple of years ago.  She just wandered up the road to George and Lisa’s house and that was that. She became their dog and she is a good one!  She only has one small issue: she likes to visit the neighbors house when she is not on her leash or lead.  We would all love it if she could wander the farm like Shadow but she goes for a visit but won’t return when called.  So, Roxie is getting a fenced in area, a huge one, so she can run around with having to be leashed.  Look for more updates on the fence as it continues to grow!
