Vestry Graduate

Image
I am no longer part of the Vestry at Christ Church Norcross. I served my full term as the Buidings and Grounds liaison. It was three years. There was a lot of items to deal with over the years. But the effort wasn't the work. It was the responsibility and knowing that I wasn't doing enough. I think most people get that feeling with obligations. Maybe not. I am sure the time and responsibility will be quickly reallocated. When I signed on I figured I would learn something. Now I am thinking about what I learned along with the hows and whys.

Angie and I are having a normal weekend. We worked in the yard. Living in the South yard work is mostly about pruning and weeding. We are getting good with the requirements. We manipulate our garden as appropriate. Angie definitely has got some good pics flying. I was busy. We seem to have a neighbor who bought a Yak-52. Step 1. Get your pilots license. 2. Buy an airplane. 3. Complain about gas prices. 4. ? Notice that we have on short-final a small Cessna on the runway and a business jet waiting to take off. Normal.

This little guy is in big trouble. He is the one standing accused of eating flowers in our yard. Yikes!

We are back from NY. We did what we had on the list. We towed the Bobcat and a few other items down to Duluth. I have a couple of landscaping projects to do in Duluth. It is a long drive for sure, 16 hours worth. I can't say I like the long drive. There were at least 5 different significant slowdowns on the way up and back down, weather, traffic, accidents. The trailer performed perfectly. The AC even worked in the truck this time! There is a brand new beaver dam being built on the farm, fast. Not sure what to do about it yet. The corn is growing well and property issues are being addressed. The Dowdell Dacha/Fazenda is on plan.
My mom is not well. Things are getting worse. Fazenda: farm Part of speech: noun Example sentence:Meus avós moram numa fazenda. Sentence meaning:My grandparents live on a farm.

Angie and I went to "Food Truck Friday" in Duluth. We had lobster from a food truck. I have been meaning to take the car/airplane pic for a while.
