Awesome past week!

The first week of work went very well. It ended on a sad note though. A farm hand crossing the railroad tracks in a truck got hit by a train and died. The vehicle he was driving was completely totaled. It made for a pretty somber day in the office! But it's a good reminder that just a moment of inattention can cause consequences that we'd never dream of! True both naturally and spiritually!

Yesterday was very awesome! I got to spend the whole day outside! It has been at least 6, if not 7 years since I was able to do that. The area on the right side of the patio got turned over and compost added and now I have the left side of the patio to do. I'm not looking forward to that one because it is way worse than the other side was. But some tomatoes, peppers and herbs are planted. I was going to plant a few seeds but I can't seem to figure out what box they're in! So I've ordered some. Now, just watch! They'll show up the week after the seeds come in! :)  Got nicely sun burnt! Was barely sore this morning though. A friend mentioned a few years ago that vitamin C is your friend when you've over exerted, so I decided to put it to the test last night and it really did work!! I should be A LOT sorer than I am today!

Today, after meeting, I went to Shoshone Falls. I had a little bit of time to waste and it was only a couple of miles from meeting. It was AMAZING! There is a lot of run off this year and the falls are full! Then headed to Blackfoot for a G. Meeting. And then back home. A lot of miles put on the car today! :) I've tried posting a video of the falls but it doesn't want to work. It's on my facebook or instagram though. :)


The view from my office! Love it!!


The compost is all turned in! (By hand using the little tool to the left!)


What little I have is planted!


I'm anxious to see how this pot does! Snapdragons and lobila

My lunch view. (Packed a lunch and sat under a tree!)


A tree in full bloom in Blackfoot. It was buzzing with bees!!


Neat clouds on the way home from Blackfoot. :)
