Today is Saturday and what a wide range of things are on our plates for the day. Daryl wanted to get the plow out and do some moldboard plowing. Now isn’t that a crazy name for a piece of equipment? I tried to look up on the internet more information on this type of plow and find the reason why it’s called a moldboard – but obviously I must be the only one curious enough to investigate because I couldn’t find much of anything. So like I said, Daryl was doing some plowing and he said it went really well. I dropped off a couple of things for him in the field and snapped a couple of pictures. It’s been awhile since this field was plowed and I just love how black and rich the dirt looks. Below are the pictures that I took
I had a couple of things that I wanted to get done in the house and then I made a quick trip to town. Mom had something that she wanted returned and I was looking for some new work shoes. But before I headed to town I wanted to try something that I saw on Pinterest. If you have never visited the sight before, it’s the Mother Load of all the ideas I think in the world! I have to put time limits on how long I can be on this website and I usually look at it about 30 minutes before I go to bed. Now that I think of it, this is probably not the best time to be surfing this site. And no wonder why I have some crazy dreams of making wonderful things with wooden pallets and mason jars! For today I am using an idea that I saw on it though. The idea is for hanging the tank tops more organized in the closet. I tried the way they did it on the internet and then switched it around a little bit. To be honest, I like my way better.
Suggested way is to hang the shower curtain hooks on the hanger. They slid around too much!
I put the shower hooks on my closet rod instead. Works much better
Then off to town I go. I wanted to return something for Ma and once I got to that store, returning it was fast and easy. I didn’t have such good luck with some of the things that I was looking for, but I did get a couple of things checked off my list. I needed a couple more of the landscaping brick for the milk house and I found out that they were on sale and even had a rebate. SCORE! I also had good luck with finding small Christmas gifts for Kyle’s classroom in Korea. He has 19 kids (2 classes – a morning and an afternoon class) so to find something that they would like and is also easy to ship…. well that’s a challenge. But I found at one of the stores they had 50% off Christmas stuff and I thought to myself that they just shouldn’t be doing this before Thanksgiving, but then I thought YEA for me!! So I found some Santa’s train whistles and paddleballs. Both of these are light and easy to pack so I’m thinking that I did really well. Now I’m not so sure that Kyle is going to think that when all these kids are blowing the whistles and trying out the paddleballs.
On the way home from town I was just minding my own business when I saw someone pull over on the oncoming 2 lane highway. I was a little puzzled and then when I looked to see what this guy was doing I could understand why he pulled over. He was taking a picture of the sunset. Of course I had my camera with me, so I found the next driveway to pull over and took a couple of pictures also. Now I know that everyone has probably seen 2 million sunset pictures, but holy cow when I looked at the ones that I took, I just wanted to share them. So these 3 pictures are the photo of the day. I took the first two probably within 30 seconds of each other and then zoomed in for the last one. Check them out
