This morning John and I walked out to the highway again. Walking up and down the hills is getting a little easier--guess we are starting to get in shape. Today was a pretty quiet one around here. After breakfast, Matt stopped in for a visit and after he left, John headed down to the shop to assemble some tables that will be stained and lacquered next week.



Joanne and Julie came to the shop this morning--Jo to shred paper for packing and Julie to ride her bike around the shop. Julie also had the job of bringing Grandmom her mail. After Jo was done her work, we had a chance to visit and catch up.


John finished up in the shop around noon and after lunch he started cleaning out the garden. He is planning to cut back on his strawberries and try planting some potatoes this year. It has actually been warm enough to start working up the ground and plant some early vegetables. We usually can't even till the ground until the middle or end of May. Spring has definitely come early to northern Minnesota.

The rest of the day was pretty uneventful. After supper we watched some of the NFL Draft and basketball playoffs. Tomorrow is Sam's big basketball day so we need to be up and out nice and early.
