Five in the afternoon and the sun finally decided to show itself. Dennis and I had a great road date. Driving along it was interesting that there were fields that were getting fertilizer applied. I have no doubt the soil is still very cold, but then hard telling how many acres they need to prepare.

After a trip to the Hy-Vee grocery store in Mankato, I made a side trip to the Goodwill store. Dennis decided to check his eyelids for cracks during that time. Spring cleaning is about to hit the kitty baskets in the patio porch. Out with the old. For a few dollars next to nothing I picked up a comforter that will adorn the kitty baskets over the spring and summer. There is no way I would even consider laundering all the love and fuzz that has accumulated over the winter. It will be interesting to see the response from the spoiled critters. I am sure they have grown fond of the way they can curl into the folds of the blankets just as the two legged ones here on Stauffer.
