Spring is bursting out all over. The geese have a nest of eggs, the fields are greening up, and the temps are heavenly. Oh yeah, and the snakes are out. I used the backhoe to trench for replacement of sprinklers -(Doesn't everbody?) -and also dug up a retaining wall and uncovered a rattlesnake. It was dusk and I didn't see it and picked up block pieces within a couple of inches of his head several times. Providentially, he didn't strike.
We had an awesome Easter egg hunt for young and old and had Grandma and Grandpa Kartchner and Uncle Stan for dinner which we cooked outside on our grill. Dustin made dutch oven potatoes and then we visited and watched the sunset. Jake kept trying to get Grandma or Mikayla (Or anyone) to go for a boat ride. Grandma told him she was wearing a dress and couldn't. Mikayla took the cue and said "I'm wearing a dress too and I just want to stay here on the swing and visit"
