Whatever happened to April showers? Maybe I better not speak to loud. Can’t tell you how much I am enjoying this fantastic weather. Just as Pilgrim Farmer John and William are under snow. Well, that’s how it goes.
So how is everyone doing with the isolation? There was a FaceBook post from Now That’s Funny was “If the schools are closed for too long, the parents are gonna find a vaccine before the scientists…” Hehe. My Rebecca says parents are going to really appreciate teachers before this is all over. There is some thought about paying them a billion dollars a year now.
What is that old saying, “Necessity is is the mother of invention.” And that’s what we are experiencing right now. That is always stressful because of the lag between the need and when Mom gets there.
But it is how we do things most times apparently.
Governor Cuomo was talking a few days ago being inspired by the Apollo 13 movie. Remember all the brain power and slide rule work that went into bringing those guys home in one piece. If you can check that film out or one of the documentaries about the event you will see what the Gov meant. We watched one of the documentaries.
Well, I am off to solve my own current local problems probably won’t need a slide rule, maybe a tape measure would help. So, stay sane and be creative with your time and affairs. All things may be possible.
Springtime exploding loves, Felipé.
As for Necessity being the Mother of Invention . . . we learned that on The Trail. In the immortal words of Felipe: “They’re frigging pilgrims; they’ll figure it out!”
PS Made my heart ache to see the picture of the tapas table under the boughs. Long to be there!

Henriette ~ so glad that you have found a home away from home here at the ranch. We will be back to it. Oh, would you please send the pic of Catherine with mask (smiling one) to me in another way. That one kept coming up sideways and I couldn’t get it straight. I want to put it up on the blog but want it right. Thanks, Felipé.x
