The heat and humidity are miserable out there today. So, of course, Brother Fred and I loaded our mowers and went to the church this morning to try to keep up with the grass. It was a bitter struggle for three hours, but we got it done. Fred on his tractor and bushhog. Me on my zero-turn. But, we got it done. A person can walk across the church grounds now.
Our regular Thursday evening event has been cancelled. The arena is a mud pit. We have gotten about six inches of rain in the past week, a little every day. We have a rodeo scheduled for tomorrow night, but the arena master will assess tomorrow morning.
Belle has scheduled a family reunion in out barn for Saturday Lots of prepping there. The thing about having a wax bullet range is that wax bullets bounce. I bet I have swept up a five gallon bucket of wax bullets that were under things we normally don't sweep under. If you move something, it has wax bullets under it.
Family reunion this weekend, then the Louisiana State Championship next weekend. I'll be busy all week.
That mugginess left behind a rain shower and now in full sun is something I avoid as much as possible. Wind is often very low and its like been swaddled in a wet terrycloth towel. Blech !!
ReplyDeletePoints awarded for your hard work effort by you and your friend. I hope the congregation appreciates it.
God bless you and Fred. The tenacity to do what needs doing. It sounds the youngsters are doing right. Please post on the rodeo, if it happened, and the championship.
