February 28, 2018

Resolutions...um well Monday is not going to be the best day for me to find time to blog anyway.

This week is the deadline to turn in our Youth Fair entries. Calling it a deadline gives the wrong picture of it - there are two days the entries are accepted - Thursday from 4 to 8 and most of the day Saturday. A friend of mine who is a veteran Youth Fair entrant, recommended taking the entries on Thursday, but the thought of purposely going out during that time of day makes me feel like banging my head on the wall. We will go Saturday.

My parents were here last week.  We went to the zoo and had cinnamon rolls at Knaus Berry Farm and fed the tarpon at Robbie's marina.  We also went to a Chinese New Year festival.  Despite all that, my dad and Caleb got in A LOT of fishing.  


We're growing some marigolds:

And harvesting tomatoes:
Although this is near the end of the growing season here, I may try to grow some more vegetables during the summer. 

Lewis and Clark is moving along.  We have 4 more filming classes left and the 5th is to view the movie.  It is a lot of work to organize all the costumes and props and move them back and forth every week.  It is hard to fit everything into an hour.  But, I think they already understand basically where they went and why they went there.  It is a fun class.  The other day, we were filming a scene where they were amazed at the huge fish they caught along the way.  The last kid to speak held up his fish and said "Look at the size of this fish!"  and a kid off scene exclaimed "Holy Mackerel!"  It was hilarious.  You better believe I am going to leave that in the final product!
