The boys and I headed to Sioux Center to watch Mandy and Jason swim, bike,run. Fun day. I didn't know where to park, etc, but it all turned out okay. We got there in time to see Jason swim, bike and run. We missed Mandy's swim, but got to see her bike and run. I left around 11 and called IG Hardware to mix some paint for me so I could put it on the wall downstairs where Denny put the TV. I got spray paint to paint the shelf for the microwave downstairs. We moved to the bunk house for this next week. The Prairie Whole group didn't show up today or yesterday. Their texts were kinda vague. Mandy gave me a big pot for my tree. I painted it

Pickleball
I went to IG and played PB with Craig, Sue and Dave. I got a few annuals at Bomgaars. 4 packs were $1.25. Denny went to work after working on getting the mowers running. uffda!!! When I got home I took a nap, fixed pork loin roast and cauliflower in the crock pot, and started to mow. It was going well, then there was a metal panel that had blown off a roof, so I turned off the mower to move the panel. WRONG MOVE!! It would not start again. Uffda!! I got willow sticks for Pastor from the pruning I had done earlier. We got a reservation for Prairie Whole for the month of May and today we got a booking for May 4-10 of the Home place. I spent a lot of time putting together a hammock instagram. At night when Denny came home we spend much time trying to get my mower moving NOPE. He had to pull it with the bobcat. Sweet new about Rose from Lisa VK.

OGT
I was up and devo then to OGT. Denny drove tractor for Larson's. After OGT I went to bergmans' and Brenda and I went to Cathy's plant shop. I got 2 blooming little sunflower plants. Then we went to Geholings and I got some cosmos and Blue Victoria salvia. Brenda got beautiful geraniums for her porch. SO pretty!!!After a nap I started to mow, but when I was in the soccer field, (close to being done) This mower seemed to get clogged up, so I drove it back to the machine shed. My mower wouldn't start for me. I fixed pork burgers and poppers in the crock pot.
