Welcome Home Gift

When we get home, we stop down on the road in a flat area to unhook the tow car. Then we go to the top of the hill by Mother's house and back the RV into our shelter. When we got up there, there was the mower of Mother's farm tenant (Linden Rhodes) in the shelter.

I called Linden, trying not to let my voice sound irked........he said he had been doing some mowing, he wasn't expecting us until May 1st, apologized profusely, and told us where the key was so we could move it out of the way. Ed did that and put the RV in the shelter.


As we were driving down the hill towards our house, Ed said, "Look, someone mowed our lot!" (We have mulch and landscaping near the house with pasture grass on the rest of our 2 acres so we don't have to mow it but several times a year.....unlike a lawn, that needs mowing weekly or more.)


At the same instant, we realized who the mowing angel must have been...
and we felt badly that we had been irked about the mower. I called Linden immediately and he said Christie had mowed it Thursday evening.

What a wonderful welcome home gift! Thank you, Christie and Linden!
