The Marsh Marigolds are blooming.
Tractors are in the fields.
Far Guy saw two rabbits in the yard yesterday so maybe we will have lots of little bunnies running around before long!
The Pin Cherries are in bloom...all signs of Spring here in Minnesota.
We are also getting wild fire smoke from the neighbors up North.

I wonder how Mother's Day in heaven is?
We think of our Mother's on this day if they are alive or in heaven.
Far Guy had Doctors appointments Up North so we left right after his Infusion on Thursday and came back late Friday afternoon. He is doing okay.
Guess who else was happy to see us?
Little Elvis had a sleep over with us in our room. He had a small problem last week, he caught a toe nail on something and it bled something fierce...and he traveled throughout the house ...no doubt looking for help...poor boy. Jen asked me if I wanted to take him home...I would like to but I don't think he would be happy here. He doesn't hear anything, hand signals work the best with him...and I am not sure how much he can see.
AND then there is the retriever...
She was so happy to finally get my shoe. Her tail was wagging ninety miles an hour. She enjoys being a shoe thief!
She wasn't the least bit remorseful. However she did give up my shoe...eventually...but would not retrieve the other one. Sadie is quite the dog, Thursday evening she went from person to person for attention. Her own personal round table of attention. She has been shutting herself in the bathroom...she goes in there to drink out of the toilet bowl...yes dogs do that! I am sure her big old tail hits the door and the door partially closes behind her...she isn't brave enough to nose the door open...so we worked on that a bit...with me standing outside the door saying "Sadie nose" and offering a treat through the open part of the door...she nosed it open multiple times. Will she remember...not sure. When she shuts herself in the bathroom she doesn't bark or whine she just waits patiently until someone rescues her. Thats Sadie for you!
Did you know our son in law Andy is a marvelous cook? ...well he is...he made bacon cheeseburgers on the grill, potato rounds in the air fryer and a caprese salad. I miss his cooking and I miss the days off from cooking when he cooks!
Jen is a good cook also...but she does not enjoy cooking like Andy does. She is a marvelous baker! So they make a good team.
It was good to see everyone...we also got to see Adam, Maddie and Andy's Mom!

The Lilac buds are expanding. This is a Donald Wyman late blooming lilac
Far Guy saw a Oriole, the grape jelly feeder is out and waiting for them. I saw a Hummingbird, so I quickly made the sugar water for their feeder. Not much is blooming here in the boonies. The Pin Cherries are about to bloom and sunny spots have a few dandys.

The Forsythia in town are all blooming.
