[Thursday] Memorial prep

[Ernie]

Randy,
I have a water fill tow behind the lawn mower tractor roller that I will bring over.
That will help some if we get a wet day so the ground is soft.  When full of water I guess it weighs in the area of 300 pounds

 Hi Everyone,
 Our memorial for Bob on 5/11 is going to require
 some planning and prep around the museum.  Most
 specifically I think we need to get going on some sprucing
 up right away.  I'd certainly like to look our best for
 the occasion.  The lawn took some heavy abuse through the
 winter and needs some restoration.  If we could do
 something more, like lime application, to green it up more
 too and give it some health I'd like to do it.  I'd
 also like to consider some flowers or other plantings to
 help bring some life to the grounds.  I'll reach out to
 the Boy Scouts to see if they might be willing to help with
 some cleanup of the perimeter in particular too.  For the
 buildings they could all benefit from some painting of the
 trim.  I have some work to do myself in finishing up the
 work on the meeting hall, and was hoping to tackle more this
 year.  That plan will have to change a little just to fit
 the schedule, and we might want to paint some wood that I
 would otherwise choose to replace.  The work to replace the
 steam piping is going well, and will be functional within a
 couple of weeks.  Aside from that I'd like to focus all
 available attention on this prep.  Please let me know if
 anyone is thinking of specifics that also need desperate
 attention, or thoughts on this.  I'll take a run by
 this week to evaluate painting supplies and pick them up
 before Thursday.  A tamper would probably help the lawn
 repair but I don't think we have one there. There is
 certainly more that needs to be done, but we need to start
 attacking these right away. 
 Thanks,--
