 Another foggy but light wind morning as I got up at 02:30 to greet the world. 

Catching up on life the past week and a wow moment!  Last Sunday sitting at the LA Bar , watching tv and chatting with the girls working there, My vision went blurry , then more blurry and more .  Next thing I knew was my friend yelling at me to wake up. Then told me I was totally out for about 3 or so minutes. Next the police showed up to make sure I was good and ambulance came about 20 minutes later and run a few tests on me.  All was good like nothing had happened. 

Police called wife to come get me and my car and told her what happened.  So got home with her driving my wagon and neighbor was here waiting also. 

Next morning, Dr appointment made and at 1P  Doctor's nurse running tests, then talking to the Doc and off the hospital for more tests. 4 different ones.  So far, no word on the test results means nothing found. 

Oh well, we just go on from here and have a plan in case of getting a vision warning when driving. Get off the road and kill the engine. ;-) 


Then letting the people at the LA Bar know what's decided.  Telling my friend at the little place I go to a few blocks from the house about the incident so it something happens in the future there . 


Back to normal checking the garden for plants coming up.  A few making their present above ground. 

An under the house inspection for health of the home and he found a dripping leak under the kitchen I'll have to address Monday for sure. No use starting on it during the weekend and if need a plumber. ;-) ]

So, now, we see what live continues to bring that will excite us. 


Oh, yes , a surprise when seeing an obit up in facebook about an old friend. Don West, Jr as left us.

 One Dr Visit a done deal! All good but wants me back on cholesterol meds. Okay Doc > You got it.

😉 See him and nurses again in 6 months I hope. 😉 LOL He said " How old you are now Chesley? about 65? " Aw Doc Wilder, how about 58 years old " Ha ha ha He looked at my chart and him and the nurse laughed. " Uh , a month and a bit from 80 yr old dude. " ha ha ha . Had to laugh at that one. Next they gave me a shot. LOL!


Morning routine of removing bugs off the Wagon. ;-0

11th day of February. and your 45F self. Let's hope the rains are over with as parade time in Lake Arthur at 2:30PM. And I want to be there with camera in hand. Always a fun time over there.
Bugs already removed from the Wagon's nose this early morning and it's smiling and ready for today's adventures. Even a full tank of gas. YES!
Da Brenda says feeling pretty good this morn but knows the shoulder is still there. LOL told her you got a ways to go yet gal. Just maybe in a couple more months it's gonna pretty much be gone, but it was 6 months for me to feel hardly any pain when using my damaged shoulder which was no near as damaged as her's was and still, 11 years later still not the same in strength or overall feeling of my right shoulder.
So, let's chill and hope the Weather Gods are nice to LA this afternoon.
A few from LA Parade last year!


For sure so ready for Spring and get back into gardening. 😉
Have 2 enclosures ready to dirt and plants




My kumquat tree before the freeze



And a week or so After the freeze



a picture of my 3 gals. Wife , Ella and Dee. Ella had hip replacement about 2 weeks before the wife had shoulder replacement.


And decided to black out the gold chevy sign on the front to black.



This day was a very foggy walk in the graveyard. But all the ghosts stayed in the ground LOL .




And the bride exercising that new shoulder joint. Think I'm gonna plant sunflowers there this year.


And my gal decided to get a new couch




Really beginning to wonder about my satsuma tree that did make 20 of them last year. If it starts showing life next month, in the ground it goes.




And after the pruning of the kumquat tree.


Gonna be a new begging for it after the freeze.

And a picture of both garden plots for this year. Have about 7 squash plants coming up in the near one and a couple cucumber plants in the far one. This last cold spell hurt them so we'll see and replant if need be.


And that about catches up today. Besides the wife getting fitted for new glasses then wanting to to Loggerheads for a glass of wine which was FINE with ME.
