Thanks Mike. Glad to hear things are looking good there. Hope the trend continues.

Dr just told my brother that there was residual cancer in the tumor they removed. He was confident he got it all though and his lymph nodes were clean

I’m planting our pinto beans now. Wish it was a little warmer. Still was a light white frost yet this morning. It’s supposed to warm up next week but they’ve been saying that for a month. Here by the lake it seems like when it should be a nice day. The wind decides it wants to blow off the lake it cools thing down a lot. Feels really good when it gets hot out but not so much in the early spring.

Not complaining though. As Pappy says Life is good

It was a light one here Bob. I’m sure hoping it’s the last one for this spring. And we don’t get an early one this fall.

Especially since we started planting Pinto beans. They won’t be as hardy with the cold. They like it warm. Not necessarily extreme heat, especially when they are blossoming. The lake is still going to keep us about 15 to 20 degrees cooler than inland, but when they start getting up to the 90’s that’s alright with me and my crops.

Yesterday I finished planting Pintos. This field is my cousin’s grandpas farm. The people who bought the buildings really did an awesome job fixing everything up. I always enjoy seeing it. I text my cousin a picture and he didn’t realize it was his grandpa’s place until I told him. It could be the home of the Clydesdales.

Our soybeans are just starting to poke out. You can see them shoving the ground up.

Had a very nice Memorial Day weekend. Not as nice as when we all went to the primitive meet in Marshall, but we did our best. Had two graduation parties and a wedding on Saturday. I was very tired but it was fun.

Then Sunday was my youngest grandson’s birthday party. I love that boy . He’s always gotta be the old ball. Everyone else in the family is MSU. So of course he has to be Michigan. His mother made the cake and said it proves her unconditional love making him this cake. Go Spartans.

We worked hard at planting black beans the last two days. My brother is back from hospital. He’s on the disabled list yet, but he has helped us move stuff around when we switch fields. He looks good and I can tell he’s itching to get back to work. We’re holding him back though. Need him healed up good first.

Was planting black beans at my cousins farm yesterday. Getting dusty now. Definitely warmed up. Slept with windows open past two nights. First time furnace hasn’t run in a long time.
