What a great day to take a whack at the outside work. I used the weed whip to take down foliage in the gardens until the battery needed to be recharged. The foliage was raked out into the grass and Dennis was right there with the rider mower to mulch. If the rain holds off tomorrow we could see the last of the gardens being put down for the 2017 year.
The horse tank that Dennis uses to house the Koi over the winter months is full of water in the car garage. With city water, it is best to allow any alien additives from the water plant to dissipate before putting the Koi in. The water may be in the tank for some time. It is always a good thing to do what you know will need to be done before it becomes a crisis. Before the water went into the tank we made sure to cut some of the lattice plastic that we had been storing to put on top of the tank. With curious cats, I would rather that they can check it out and not suffer the consequences after falling in.
Snuggles is going to be so bored when winter sets in. He has been getting a squirrel day. He loves the quest, could care less about the deceased. It’s our job to try and keep up with him and keep the yard tidy, if you know what I mean.
I will say we had a treat for supper last night . . . a pizza from Casey’s. It is the first pizza since . . . neither I or Dennis could remember. Half “Supreme” and half “Taco,” it totally was enjoyed. It wasn’t half bad either this noon when I popped the remaining pieces in the microwave with a damp paper towel on top of it. Yum.
