     Darel had a quiet. comfortable day yesterday.  We are planning to go to the lunch at church today.

     It was such a nice day yesterday that i got to spend quite a bit of time in the garage.  Not only has stuff accumulated there over the yers but I have returned greenhouse stuff to go through.  Since it is made of plastic and plastic come from oil I try to recycle it.  But I  know why lots of greenhouses don't take plastic back.  There is stuff of the kids in there from years ago,  stuff from when Darel was fencing ad machine and fencing stuff of Dougs.  Every so often I have to have Doug come in and go through a pile. I'll get back out there this afternoon.

    It finally warmed up enough so the snow slid off the greenhouse. i hate to have the snow pulled off, it would be so easy to knick the plastic. Lil Andrew shoveled it away so there is room to slide off if we get the big storm forecast for Sunday.

   Have a good day, Sally
