Memorial Day in Parowan is really a day to work and get everything
ready for Summer. Curt and I have been sorting through pictures and
cleaning out our storage in our bedroom. We have a lot of stuff to
get thrown out and some stuff that we could possible sell. I hate
yard sales. I would rather just pitch it out.

The pictures were taken yesterday of the flood control channel
behind our house. We have seen it higher than that and muddier too.
All the snow is finally melting and coming down. We still like to go
to the ditch and look for good rocks right in our own backyard. So
when it stops running we will be there looking.

Curt has been working on the garden getting everything planted. He
even put up a fence around most of it to keep the critters out. He
does get tired easier but has really done a lot around here.
He has even been working on some pottery. He starts up with his
weekly chemo this Thursday. It will be for 4 weeks then one off,
four more weeks then around the first week in August we will be
going back up to Huntsman. We are hopeful for a good report. Still
no word from the Veterans Administration about Curt's claim for
Agent Orange exposure.

School is out so I am without a job for now. Its nice to have a
break, but I will miss the paychecks. Oh wrong. Did I say
paychecks? I meant kids! Hope we get to visit the kids this Summer. It always seems to go by
too fast.

Pond by Minersville

Rockin

Saturday Curt and I went out by Minersville.  We looked for some turquoise but didn't find anything worth bringing home. there is a small pond there too so he fished a little.  It was a good day.  The weather was great!

Four Wheeler

On Saturday Curt loaded up the trailer with our four wheeler.  He just took the blade off on Friday.  We figured that any snow we would get would melt fast.  It always melts pretty fast in the Spring.  We went to the Parowan Gap and parked by a road that goes south through the mountains.We unloaded the wheeler and off we went.  I was surprised at how much I have never seen in there.  It was really beautiful.  Great cliffs and rock formations.  The day was beautiful and not cold.  He wanted to take me for a ride for Mother's day. We had a great time.

Mothers day this year was very nice too.  I got cards and flowers and a little hummingbird crystal from Tishanna.  I think my best Mothers day present was having all my 'boys' meet at Disneyland and have a picture taken.  I was very  happy that they could all be together.
