Memorial Day 2010

Memorial Day is officially the start of summer. Not really in our house. In our house the start of summer comes with the end of the school year but for lots of folks the first weekend of summer is the long Memorial Day weekend. Here in MI it is a 4 day weekend with us getting the Fri and the Mon off. We headed up to my dad’s for a cook out and with the idea that we could start some of our summer projects for the farm. The weather thought otherwise. It rained. It was a warm rain but a torrential down pour none the less.  We cooked out on the grill in the pole barn and Caelun played in the rain while we listened to it on the metal roof. I can think of far worse ways to spend a Memorial Day.

Grandpa Bob gout out his tractor but hten put it back when the rain started.
