First of all – Happy Birthday, Phil!!!! And to the Gebhardts, Happy Cinco de Mayo!Â
We heard from a little birdie that our gardener would be making a surprise visit! He’s here! We even cleaned his room! Brad’s here for his niece’s confirmation on Sunday and, of course, to check on our garden.Â
Lloyd fell asleep early, so he missed Brad’s arrival around 11 p.m.  Brad said, “Dang it. Oh, well, it’s for the best. I wanted to sneak in in the middle of the night and just be here when you woke up.” Yeah, that would have been funny, except for the part where I would have stabbed the stranger sneaking around our house in the night because I was afraid to wake up Lloyd and raise his heart rate. Yeah, would have been funny.
Welcome, Brad! Thanks for bringing the thunderstorms.
