Today hubby and I went up to the rental duplex, its on a acre. He hauled the tractor and brushhog and I hauled the mower and tiller. What a crew. He mowed the back and brushhogged the neighbor ladies back lot. She is 87 and her husband died some years back, so he tries to help her keep it down.
We planted 3 more rows of corn after he disked up another area. I tilled what was already there and up. Then added cantaloupe and watermelon. I did transplants instead of seeds, a bit late for seeds. We will share with the tenants and the elderly neighbor. Wanted to plant up there for a long time just never had the time before. So hubby went on to mow at some more lots and I stayed and did the weedeating and watered the garden really good. I may add a few more plants so the tenants and neighbor can have some. They are all alone no DH like mine!
I went to McDonalds and had some fries and a coke while cooling down and got the dog an ice creme cone. He loves ice cream
Later I was driving home, dirty, tired, sweaty. His old truck got all dusty from the mower, the dog has his head out the window taking in life, I'm listening to country music. I'm thinking, you know it just doesn't get any better then this! Hauling dads old tractor back home that hubby cherishes, working together on things. Life is good! I like working in the dirt.
We have been married 43 years, I sure hope we have a lot more and are able to do things just like we are right now. We don't have to do this stuff but we both like it.
Tonight out to dinner.:licking:
