Wind!

It's been a windy day.  Spring must be here! 

A colorful dawn.

We ran down to SJ and John delivered the "Chasemobile"  I think it was a big hit!  Everyone loved it.  It's a bit big for Chase right now, his little legs barely reach the brake pedals and his hands have to stretch to reach the hand crank.  He tried to use it just using one arm, I think once he gets the idea and sees his siblings and cousins ride it, he will figure out how it works.  I hope it will help him develop his right arm.  Chase had a stroke last year at only 2 years of age and for a time was unable to use his right side and they weren't sure if he would walk again.  He is walking, running and getting around good, so his brain has made new pathways to send signals to his leg.  The brain is so amazing!

Chase tries out the Chasemobile.

The electricity was out again when we got home, so we went to Subway for lunch, didn't want to open the fridge and let out all the cold.   Brad Goodsell followed us home, he had a corrogated pot he gave us!  It was given to him a few years back and he said he and his wife really didn't like such things and he thought we'd appreciate it.  He tried to sell it, but with the new laws mo one wanted to take the risk because he had no paperwork with it.  The museum didn't want it either, so he thought of us.  Cool!  It will remind me of my days at Casa and the pot I helped dig out of room 10.

Corrogated Pot

I did a check on the greenhouse this afternoon and found a couple of the metal fasteners on the end had slipped, so I got John to help me fix them and put up a few extras.  The wind is picking up, yick!


The greenhouse needed a bit of tweeking today. 
Wow, look at them grow!
John and I went out to dinner with Paul Krookston.  He came by to show John the blueprint he did for the outdoor lighting for the outside of the old school.  They are planning to redo the grounds, too.  It was raining as we left!  Cold and windy tonight.

Burr, it looks cold and stormy up on the mountain!
