      The live trap is sprung, bait still in it, but no skunk.  I have a different trap, I will try it tonight.

       Tuesday night Grandson Mike went to the ER.  Yesterday at one he had his appendix removed.  All went well.  He is out of work for a month. That is not good.  Not good for him and not good for his brother who he works for.

        Cindy did some more planting yesterday morning.  She headed home to New Hampshire in the afternoon, getting home safely. Hopefully she got enough spring/hands in dirt fix to carry her through the stormy forecast .  I am thankful for the time we spent visiting.

       Planting continues in the greenhouse.  Bekah took the petunia seedlings she had started in the house to the greenhouse and planted them.  It was a nice day but she still carefully wrapped them for the move. Can't Let those babies get chilled.  Now there is room under the lights for more seeds.  Bekah is setting up the heat mats in the greenhouse. Soon it will be time to start so many seeds there won't be room in the house.

      A small flock of red winged blackbirds arrived yesterday.

      May God Bless You on this day, Sally
