To stitch or not to stitch

This morning we woke to this fog hanging over the river - it looked neat.
As you can see all the snow has melted on the top of the mountain - which is great. It has really warmed up. Yesterday was a scorcher and it looks like today will be the same.
This warm weather is great news for the harvest - they are going full steam ahead with that.

Yesterday wasn't such a good day for Alistair - he wacked his elbow on a peice of metal and got a gash on the very tip of his elbow. Very inconvienent spot really as every time he bends his arm it opens up the cut. I think it really should have been stitched, but he didn't want to get an injection! He came home with blood all down him and his clothes.
So I put some of those butterfly strip things on it (lucky we had some of them from when Tamzin sliced her finger open on a can) and bandaged it up.

Let me see where did I leave off in my last post - I think it was Sunday - yes, and I was heading out to do some gardening. Well here is the picture to prove that I actually did do some gardening.
It took me all day to weed that small piece of garden - it was hard work. But it looks much better without the overgrown weeds there. I will plant the tulip and daffidil bulbs this week. (This hill behind me is the hill Kyle goes up over to the guys dorm.)


They have asked if we can have some of the board members stay here when they come for the board meeting in 2 weeks time. (They don't have enough guest rooms for them all) So I thought I better tidy the place up. It will be a big challenge to get the spare room ready as at the moment it is full of boxes! Good incentive to sort it out though.

Kyle did a spot of riding with some of the guys on Sunday. They have made quite a good riding track close buy apparently, so they went off riding on that.
While riding they came accross a huge bear - biggest they have seen round here. He was scared of them thought and dissappeared as soon as he saw them.
Makes me bit nervous though as this was just down the hill from our house! Don't think I better leave Missey tied up at home while we are out.




Work is going well. Nearly half way through scanning the first file draw - there are over 18 draws to do, so it will be a long slow process.

I see another earthquake his New Zealand. I hope everyone is safe and well.......
