Chase and Nanaw had a busy morning on Friday. Nanaw wanted to transplant the pumpkins and green beans to the garden area Uncle Mike made for her before it got too hot. She had Chase put on his swimming trunks and come outside with her to play in the water while she transplanted. He was excited about the new sprayer for the hose. Uncle Mike broke the other one so he bought one at Home Depot on Thursday. It's a long wand and has lots of settings like the other one. Chase tested out the settings and liked them all. He went around the yard spraying everything. He also spent time running through the sprinkler. Nanaw transplanted the pumpkins and green beans and watered them. They started looking droopy in the sun (there's lots of sun on the side of the house). So Nanaw propped Chase's two swimming pools up against the house to protect the plants from the sun. And it worked. The plants stopped looking droopy and perked right up. When the sun went down, Nanaw took down the pools. She'll put them up again tomorrow morning and maybe leave them overnight while she's at the little house. Chase got most of his school work done. They'll finish up a couple of pages on Monday.
