Mothers Day

  Took mother out for Mothers day. We mostly spent the day looking around and walking.  It has probably been 10 years since mom has been out, she said it has not changed much.  New tulips were up and colorful, and there were big butterflies as well.  The wind had blown over a big tree in the bottom and some of the smaller trees out front of the house. Roof looks like it will need some care wind had taken off a few shingles.  We went up to the cemetery cleaned,weeded and left some flowers.  Mom got her exercise in, she did want a shot of the swing set and dandelions....almost forgot the fresh watercress to take home for lunch.

Meeting Reminder and more pics...

Many Hands Make Light Work!

Here are some fun snapshots sent by Terry and Jane from Memorial Day Weekend. What Park Valley weekend wouldn't be complete without a spring hailstorm!? Great Fun!  Also, big thanks to Terry's Family and Rulon's Family for all the hard work in cleaning the trailer, clearing the pond, mowing the lawn, pruning and moving wood, not to mention all kinds of other odds and ends.  As you can see everyone big and small contributed!  Thanks also to Grant Jr., who made it down just in time to lock everything up...  :)  :)  :)
