Rob , Les, and the kids arrived last night about 8PM. Jay was fishing and Rob and Ethan couldn't wait to throw the lines in. They caught some fish. We are blessed to have a beautiful heart shaped pond just 50 feet from our door. It is fully stocked and the grand kids all love to fish as they always catch a lot of fish. We got to bed late so we went to 2nd service this morning. Jay and I usually go to 1st service but it was a little too early for the kids. It was great having all the kids and grand kids together at church. We treated them all to lunch at Bob Evans afterwards. Our church is across the road from the Bob Evans Farm. It is kinda strange not seeing Mr. Evans around anymore as he passed away this past winter. Jay and I met him and became friends with him shortly after we moved here 27 years ago. This afternoon all the kids along with some of their friends came here. They all fished for a while and rode the 4-wheeler and then the grand kids decided to jump in the pond and swim. They had a blast. Jay grilled hot dogs and corn on the cob on the grill for supper.
The DNR came here yesterday and asked permission to set up some nets to catch bats. They are looking for a specific bat called the "Indiana Brown Bat". It is determined by measuring the hair on its toes. NO KIDDING! They set 2 traps here and starting about 8:30 PM until 1:30 AM they checked them every 20 minutes. They are doing it again tonight. The reason for the project is because a coal company is interesting in mining in this area and if an "Indiana Brown Bat" is found then they cannot mine because it is an endangered species. Interesting ,uh?
I must get these dirty kids in the shower before Rob and Les get back from seeing some friends so I must go. Love ya all!!
