News From Browntown
Okay now - Does the Superbowl officially end this madness or did the season end with the last 'Skins game of the season? High time we moved on to important matters!

The gardening season is about to commence here on "the compound" and we are gearing up for it. The tractor goes to the tractor spa this week to freshen up from winter hibernation, the ZTR has been groomed and readied and a new toy is set for delivery. Yes sirreee, the Cyclone Rake is the newest addition to the maintenance equipment inventory. According to the shipping company tracker it will be delivered on Friday and we will be busy for the next two months "raking" (more like vacuuming) last Fall's leaves.

Char and Keith gave Grammy a deer-proof fence for Christmas and soon it will be time to install it.

Grammy and I are devouring seed catalogs as they arrive daily in the mail and the plastic greenhouses we got last season are being prepared for duty. It is so exciting!

I don't think mom meant that she and grammy were actually ingesting seeds, but what do I know? I'm going to vacum leaves.

Dad, I think your best bet is to stay on the tractor. You know how they do...
