Happy Ester er Easter everyone.. I remember a few years where Easter was getting to be like Christmas lite.. We would get something for Easter, mostly it was for all three of us rather than each of us getting a gift type of thing, and it wasn't wrapped in anything fancier than the store bag it was in.. One year a game another year some little something.. Then there were the kite years.. Seemed like a tradition on Easter we would get a kite and then go fly it either at the bins or just east of town by the water pump station..
Watching the grass grow, or at least starting to this year I don't think we will be getting our lawn done by the people who normally do it.. I wanted to not have them do it last year and just did it myself, part of it.. I wanted parts of it done and others not to see what the difference would be. This year I think none of it will be done.. I think I will try to do something different.. Last fall (late summer) I did part of the front lawn, turned the grass over and tilled it to get a weed control going.. During the process I first went over the grass it just loosened it but didn't turn it over, just got some of the grass.. So I might try this idea in parts of the lawn this spring, try to do an experiment of sorts.. Checking the way the lawn looks right now it is greening up fairly quickly.. Needs rain.. Not a lot of rain, although we are in a drought, a few days here and there of blues day rain would be nice.. We didn't have any dreary days last year.. By this time I had the salsa kit planted (starter kit) and the pepper kit as well.. This year I keep looking at the pumpkin seeds, looking for the variety I really want.. They have a potato bucket planter I am looking to maybe try.. Maybe because remembering last year by now it was warm, and I remember thinking it's going to be a long hot dry summer and I was right.. I wish I would have been wrong.. This year could be more normal temp wise and has been so far.. But I think it could go either way.. The prediction for temp and weather moisture is about normal which is anyone's guess what normal is anymore... Heading into April the feeling is the worst of the weather is behind us or at least that was always my feeling.. April and May being the more favorite months in spring because of the potential for the season to come.. My favorite season will always be Fall.. The colors and the smell.. The drama of the sunlight becoming less with each and every day.. Can't be beat, plus there's football, 'nuff said..
