Butch said as long as he took it easy and didn't press his luck it felt okay to play. He was tired when he came home but not so tired that he needed a nap.
And then Jason came into town to help me with a few things I couldn't or didn't want to handle on my own. We both had masks on and maintained our distance here too. One of the things I wanted help with was the "Bat House". I have an outdoor wall hanging of a sun/moon and it has hung beside the breezeway door for several years but last year a bat took up residence and we could tell because of the droppings underneath. Since it was at eye-level for us and right beside the door we took it down and hoped the bat would forget about it. I put it back when we returned and lo and behold it didn't take long for the bat to take up residence again. I do not mind having a bat on the property because they eat bugs but not that near the house so I had Jason move it to the shed. I am guessing our bat will find it soon enough. The new "Bat House" location
The old bat house location was above the cactus on the left. You can see the screw that it hung upon.
I have a cactus that Gary gave me for Mother's day several years ago. I think it was 2007 or 2008. It has been repotted several times and there are all kinds of babies. It is now too heavy for me to lift and I certainly did not want Butch lifting it so that was on my list for whoever showed up first. It was Jason and he picked it up and took it to its assigned place and he looked easy doing it. I bring it in each fall and have it watered a few times throughout the winter. It seems to work out for me and the cactus but I am assuming it won't always be that way and decisions will have to be made for its future at some point. 
Jason then helped Butch get his mower blades off so Butch could sharpen them so all in all, it was a very productive day for us.
