Fun in Wisconsin! We are doing our best to try and enjoy spring in Wisconsin. Sister Marie has arrived, and we try to keep her busy. Memorial Day weekend we made our usual trek to Hayward to visit Dick and Carol. Since we met Dick and Carol through Marie we take her along, but she has to stay with D&C! They have a very nice trailer they keep up there year round, and roomier than ours. And the last couple of years we get to stay in the spot next to thiers, which is convenient. Our first night up it got to 23 degrees F. But luckily warmed up and we had some very nice days. Dick and I hit the water for a lot of hours and we caught some beautiful crappies. Many 13-14 inches. So it was fun. And we sat outside and hit many favorite bars and restaurants. Each year we need to go back and visit them again!
Work continues to be hectic. Both Chris and my work are going through some software updates. My work is very major involving all systems, from payroll, to inventory to job tickets. The plant was on shut down from Thursday, and today did not get back up to speed! So the next month will remain interesting.
Mary Jane came into Oshkosh this last weekend. We told her she might not get another chance to see the house. So we made it a relaxing time. Taking MJ to all of our favorite spots and to show her around the city of Oshkosh she went to college in. Some things have changed and Oshkosh is progressing. And this weekend was the start of the season for the Farmers Market on Main Street. We kept busy throughout. And had lot’s of fun.
Now back to the work week. We have had lot’s of rain, and this weeks projections are for more rain and colder than average temperatures. I had the girls pick up some vegatable plants today and planted them tonight. I worked the garden yesterday and it was too wet, but I am not going to get a better chance so put them in now before the rain starts back up. Our season is too short to wait longer. I still have to get the speed boat in, and it won’t be this week! So we will do the best we can. I broke down and hired a landscaper to bring in some stone for around the house and some mulch and plants for the flower beds. My back won’t let me push it too many nights. And the yard is looking pretty good. So we will try to spend our time enjoying. Middle of the month the girls head to an Alaskan cruise (I was not invited). By the time they get back we should be having summer! And we can spends some time on the boat. Take care!
