We were finally able to get our morning walk in today.  Even though the temps were a little on the chilly side, there was no wind and the sun was beginning to rise--it was actually very pleasant being outside.

Matt called right after breakfast asking if John could give him a hand leveling and forming up the area for the basketball court he wants to make.  They worked on it the entire day and now it is ready for the gravel base.

John had also hauled the repaired trailer up to Matt's to get some help getting the last stubborn bolt attached.  It's now ready to use once again.

Today I tackled the job of organizing and cleaning out all the office files getting rid of papers and forms that we no longer needed.  I had quite a pile of paper when I got done, but now everything is back in good order again.

The weather was nice and pleasant after supper, so John got the lawn mower out and starting cutting the tall grass to the west of the house.  He wants to get that area cleared out this spring so this was a good time to get started.
