John started his first work shift today at 8:30 a.m. John and Terry worked together cleaning up sites of pine needles and other debris. They would fill up the pickup with the pine needles and debris and then dump everything into a hole on the property and on and on. John came in for lunch and after he sat for a while, he stoved up pretty well. Soon his hour lunch was over and back to work he went. He said the cool temperature actually made it nice for working.
While John was working, I got caught up on our bookkeeping and took a run into town (all of two miles) to go to the grocery store. What a delight! In the past, it has been a half hour or hour journey just to get to the grocery store. I also had to stop at the hardware store to pick up a pair of gloves for John and a new ratchet strap. With John "working" it sure didn't seem like Sunday but rather Monday.
I made a big pot of soup for dinner along with a hot loaf of bread. Dinner went over real well. John played some computer games while I worked on the blog to get caught up. John looked out our window and this was the sight he saw. We had at least six White Tail Deer out in the grassy lawn area. We especially enjoy having this kind of view from our windows.
The deer around here (white tail and mule deer) are really like fleas which was the reason we knew we needed the grill guard because you never know when one or more will jump out in front of you. We saw at least three carcasses along the road on our trip to and from Rapid City yesterday.
