Some surprises have to be shared and last weekend I had a
real nice one. My two boys, David and Aaron, who live in sunny California,
decided to come spend a day and night with me to do a few chores around my
place. How fun is that!? It was a spur of the moment decision and didn’t give
me much time to plan anything or buy food for special meals. I just had time to
make a list of what needed to be done. The boys invited my other son, Jared,
who lives in Pocatello to join them. It was a busy day and the boys worked very
hard all day long. One of the nicest things they did was to prune a big tree of
mine that had started to look like a giant bush in my yard instead of a
tree. They thinned it into a beautiful
shape that is now an inviting place to sit and visit. They did some winterizing
and checked all the plugs in my old house, something that should be done occasionally
because you’d be surprised what kind of condition they can get in, especially
if you had a small leak, once upon a time, in the wall.
Kudos to my boys! You know you’re welcome anytime. I’m doing
a family Halloween party this year with an awesome costume contest so I hope
you and your families can come! It should be pretty scary here. Thanks again for the nice surprise!
