Paul Kimbrel's Musing

Okay, okay… I forgot to get a picture up here. Having three boys is tough business!

We’ve been busy beavers in our back yard. A few weeks ago, my mother-in-law brought over a few (actually, several) plants from her yard to put in ours. I hadn’t really planned on working on the yard to any major extent just yet, but with plants in need of some soil, my plans changed.

We got the plants (mostly hastas, some ferns, butter-and-eggs, etc.) in the ground and I decided it was time to do some mulching around the plants. I bought tons of mulch and started putting up some edging. My mother-in-law also started bring over geodes she had gotten from Indiana and we started using them as edging. I was a bit skeptical at first, but they actually look pretty good.

I also got some brick edging for the front and put together a small flower bed in the front of the porch and planted some impatiens up there to add some color to the front of the house. It turned out rather well.

Joe and I got the roof of the carport done today. That’s a huge item off the “to-do” list.

I’ve been up late the last several nights with Ben (and, yes, I’ll get some pictures up here soon), so I decided to break out the ‘ole Star Trek movie series my family got me a year or so back. There’s some seriously cool stuff in there, but I have to note…

Star Trek V is the worst movie I’ve ever seen.

Ugh. Cliches out the yin-yang. Almost makes Jar Jar tolerable. To its credit, though, it does have one fantastic line…
