Solved
the mysterious plumbing issues and then replaced
the
gaskets and the drain/overflow/tub stopper as we found there was a leak. I
figured we may as well replace the whole thing and make sure it was done right
this time. For both "R" and my first time at doing plumbing, we did a pretty
good job. After we got done with this, he went golfing, for tomorrow is move-in
day.
I
took some pictures from around my new home as the fields seem like they are just
waiting for the day they declare it is Spring. It is just around the corner
here. Some of the fields have wheat already planted in them, some had corn in
them, some are tilled and limed to await whatever will be planted in them this
year. Some are either hay or grass seed fields, but all of it is prime
agricultural lands.

Walking in my garden this afternoon, I found I had bulbs of all kinds coming up and the odd strawberry plant here and there.
Soon I will be starting tomatoes....
