Don worked so hard yesterday he was out as soon as his head hit the pillow last night.
We are up and ready for church .
After church we will head to the Woods to do some more work.
They tell us what does not kill you makes you strongr.This land is a challenge and sometimes I think we are too old for all this fun we are haivng. If you can call it fun.
It is a beautiful summer day in Iowa. We must live in the present and enjoy each new day of life we are given.

camping at watson woods
We plan to camp at watson woods tonight after work.
Our woods have become a jungle. Much mowing and brush cleanup to be done.
We need to cut a few trees so our neighbors can move in thier 1/5 wheel camper and set it up to permanently stay at the woods.
Southern Iowa electric from bloomfield is suppost to set pole for electricity soon.
It will be easier with elelctricity. We will get a large tank for water and haul water from town.
Rural water is just too expensive.
Ah! the joys of camping in the woods.
The birds have set up nests in all the bird houses we put up so told Don to build a few more. It will be fun watching the birds.
The deer ate all the suppliment Don set out so now need to get more.
We will have invested heavily in thier growth.
Only the best for don's deer friends.

Don's heart is out of rythm
Don woke up early this morning and his heart is out of rythm. It is beating really fast. That wears him out fast.
He is still in bed and hoping it soon will go back by itsself. If not we will have ot see the doctor and once they had to put him in the hospital and shock his heart.
All I can do is hope and pray. It used to scare me but it has been about a yeas so one day at a time I am trusting Jesus tog ive us both peasce and heal Don's heart.
