Richville Rich Family

 

We picked up Zac after his work at the dirt spot, and went to Durk's plumbing to get the stuff we needed to put sprinklers in the ground where the garden used to be.  While there, Tagg called for the Mexico City MTC for the first time.  It was good to hear his voice. 

Treyson and Jaklynn are still at it working out. They are sure dedicated. 

Their family had pictures taken before Tagg left for his mission.  They turned out so beautiful.

They also had alot of fun game nights, soaking up each other's company before Tagg left. 

BUFF !! 

TOUGH !! 

Jaklynn is quite the baker !!!

Another fun picture 

New Car............and other "stuff"

We bought a new 2025 Toyota Camry XSE
It's pretty complicated for a couple of old fogies. 

 

Mark and Dax hiked the "M"

We've had a "few" massive sunflowers

I haven't done dill pickles since 2021, but here we are ! 
Cucumbers are producing.  I'm up to 11 quarts so far, and hope to do more. 

Seems like there is always a sprinkler to fix :(

I bought 3 bushels of tomatoes from Guy Rose, and got 48 quarts of tomato juice.  So appreciative that mom came to help me cut them up. 

We still have a mouse.............. Called the Pest Control guy AGAIN ! 

Guess who won the $500 Browning gift bag at the football game on the 29th?
Yup - that would be ME :) 

Fixing/Moving the Pump

The pump to water the lawns at the Property kept losing it's prime......... so we moved it closer to the wet well.  

The box had to be dug out, pipes cut and realigned, and electrical line re-routed.  In the process we discovered a leak, so that is probably why it was losing it's prime. 

Down at the south end of the Property by the wet well, is where Zac's pump in located.  So Roger D proceeded to dig another hole so we could re-locate the pump. 

They had to dig out a ways,  to find the pipe, then fish the electrical wire down the pipe.  Zac had some FISH TAPE - isn't that funny?!  Fish Tape - to fish tape...........get it?   It worked beautifully, and it was so good they didn't have to dig up the ground all the way. 

Cut apart the original box, and modify to fit the other pump.  

For now, we've just set the old box (that we tore out) lid on the extended box (holding the relocated pump)  A new lid needs to be built, and I was able to get some grey trex material that I'm hoping will work (after Zac builds me some steps to my chicken coop - hint hint).  Another idea we are throwing around, is getting an old used 8 x 12 shed, and placing it over all 3 pumps (dads, the property's and Zac's) and the wet well, and calling it a "Pump House".  But that's a project for another day.  

Let's finish off August.........crazy busy

Still gardening.........watering......... and now we are into the harvest season.  Corn is on, tomatoes are slowly coming on, cucumbers galore, peas are done, onions looking good, and last night Dad cut his first cabbage, and sent it home with us.
