Sunny – 40’s – killdeer calling
Ray got both mowers started with help of Mary’s jumper cables.
Ray Foertsch & Brenda here from 10:30 to 3:00. Laid 6×4 timers along s side of lower driveway. Cut bittersweet vine & cleaned bank above burning pit. Hauled dirt from laying 6x4s to fill ibn ruts Ray madke with his truck. Burned limbs brough down by 40 mph winds last night.
Fed them lunch on upper deck. $90 – 2 of them – $10 an hour each. But I couldn’t do the things they did, altho I worked with them all day. They skinned sod from area s of driveway along new wooden border & I started transplanting prairie plants into it. Also dug some crocus growiong in grwass under redbud & planted in the bed nearby. Finished up 3 lbs of grass seed down in the woods.
Rec’d Bob Stout’s draft of my will. I have several changes. Made out order for books for Susannah from Dover Publishing.
Rested all evening.
