Veltri

 Up and devo.  I made beds in home place.  picked flowers for the cooler.  Weeded little.  i picked asparagus.  I washed clothes.  Man, I guess I didn't do much ,but I kept busy.  I had a medicare annual Dr visit and check out ok.  He gave me some ideas for help with sleep and for my shoulder pain.  Rivers are still overflowe=ing and Jensens went to Cherokee for a couple of nights.  We showered in the outside shower and it was so nice.  I thnk we need some hooks for towels and light bath wraps to make it back to the bunkhouse.  Jean stayed overnight  in the hospital and did more testing today.  After supper I went and put together 8 arrangements.  Maybe I'll try to peddle them tomorrow while Im at OgT.  Denny and Grands cut down tree limbs in the front yard.  He and I mowed after I got back from IG.

YES!!!! Jensens are here!!!

I was u for devo and then went back to bed for an hour and had a bad dream about me and the Prius on the edge of a cliff by the river and making a star[ turn and Jack and me being late to a college class.  Scary and weird.  I brought in flowers for the airbnb.  Denny had errands around town to do and I played ppcikleball.   Jensens got here around 1:30  SO good to have them see at home on the farm.  We visited a long time in the cabin.  About 5 Anabel drove us into IG and sur[ruised Sophia at the pharmacy.  I picked greens at Kara's.  At home we enjoyed the rockers and then ate smoked pork, asparagus and salad.  Wonderful night.
