Another Nice Day

Today the temperature reached 61 degrees. The sun was shinning and it was nice to be outside again. Phil Garmon stopped this morning while he was driving home in the tractor with a wagon full of hay rolls. He came to the front door and paid me for the hay he cut this last year. While we were standing on the front porch, John Graves drove into the driveway. At first I didn't know who it was, but Phil said it looked like an insurance salesman. I said, no it was just John, but Phil took off anyway. I invited John inside and he said he was selling insurance. I rolled my eyes, and asked him what in the world made him do that? He said he was looking for something new to do. We set and talked for about a half an hour, and then he gave his presentation to Linda and I. He said he just wanted to practice his speech and that we were the first people he had actually pitched to since accepting the job. We listened and then told him we didn't want any insurance. He said, he didn't figure we would since we had BC& BS. He left after a few minutes longer headed to another friend's house to do one more practice run.
We went and walked around both the hay fields and Trevon had an idea to have a picnic because he said it was summer. When we got back to the house we headed to town to eat lunch. We stopped at Grumpy's and had lunch. Later we went to the Methodist's Store and bought Trevon some boots for $1. Once back home we put the boots on him and I drove us around the hay fields on the 4-wheeler while Linda and Stacey fixed a picnic lunch. We ate on the picnic table down by the fire pit and then Trevon and Linda waded in the creek with their boots. It was getting near dusk, so we headed to the house.
