Found a Filé Tree
Found an ear of corn I had missed. Now I've got more seeds for next year. That always makes me smile.

Farm Studies
I needed to get the grass in for composting but Pearce didn't want to get a shower before we went to eat. He's also got a test tomorrow. So, he drove the truck and I loaded the grass. During the down times while I was tossing grass into the bed he was rereading his notes.

Irregular Irrigation Repair
Had a hose damaged in a lawn mowing incident. Ok, we lost about 6ish feet. I cut the mangled part out and spliced the good stuff back together. Now I have 2.66 hoses. I'll just have to see how far they reach.

Maundy Thursday Potato Barrel Prep
Pearce and Claire helping to get ready to plant potatoes tomorrow. I couldn't figure out how to show the annual listening to the Good Friday Potato message, but that's how we got started.
Years ago Dad used to call to remind me to plant my potatoes on Good Friday. He also reminded me how to plant them every year. I saved the last one. We listen to it on Holy Week every year.
Claire's contribution is that y'all get to see Pearce and I working on the barrel.

Garlic Crop 2020
Despite a late start I've got 7 potential bulbs so far. We planted 10 or 12. We may get a few more poke their heads out but seven is a good number for the chaos that is my farming.
