Hi Nancy,

 NB> undertaker's  NB>> schedule for the timing aspect... The ground has to
 NB> unfreeze, and then  NB>> the undertaker can start figuring out how to
 NB> schedule...

 RH> Yes, the undertaker and his staff do have a large part in determining
 RH> when burials can resume. Then comes the fun of scheduling every body,
 RH> in conjunction with family plans and so on. But, they have to be done
 RH> by a certain date which could prove interesting with a large number to
 RH> do.

 NB> So I guess you have to wait and see how it plays out...  You'll know
 NB> eventually how the thawing out is doing... ;)  I think I'm glad I'm
 NB> not the undertaker/staff trying to figure out this spring's burials..
 NB> sounds pretty complex to me...  :)

Don's going to try to get things set for 1st or 2nd week of May when he
gets back up to NY. Saw him today.


 NB>  NB>> As for the service, there can be at least preliminary planning
 NB> in  NB>> the meantime... :)

 RH> I don't know if anything has been done on that part or not.

 NB> You might be thinking, in case there's input you want to add to the
 NB> planning... or in case it gets dumped in your lap as oldest surviving
 NB> child...  ;)  Choose scriptures, hymns...

We (Steve and I) would plan something that might not make some people
happy but Mom would have, if she knew what we did. (G)

 NB> watering
 NB>  RH>> system for whenever we were gone.
 NB>  NB>> Or helpful neighbors...  :)

 RH> We'll have to talk it over with one of them, see what sort of deal we
 RH> can work out.

 NB> Shared produce... and/or pick and use the ripened things...

That might work. BTW, we can't have any fences higher than 3 1/2 feet;
deer can jump higher than that so we'll have to ooutsmart them. Don't
want them to eat all the tomatoes again.

 NB>  NB>> It would be nice if it cut down the pollen, for sure... :)  We
 NB> had  NB>> snow overnight, but now it's all melted off the cars...  :)

 RH> The official low this morning at the RDU airport was 22, record low
 RH> was 20 so we missed that. Still, yesterday was in the low 40s, today
 RH> was mid 50s and I'm feeling the pollen again. The day of rain washed
 RH> some out but brought out more buds, flowers, etc.

 NB> You can't win, this time of year...  ;)

No, but we didn't get any snow this time around.

 RH> I could, but only if they're available at the time. Then there's
 RH> canned shrimp but let's not go down that road...............(G)

 NB> Canned shrimp is best for smashing to use in a dip... ;)   A friend of
 NB> mine used to make a shrimp dip from canned shrimp, drained, mashed and
 NB> mixed with sour cream.  Easy-peasy, and tasty enough with crackers or
 NB> veggies...  :)

Easier yet is an 8oz block of cream cheese, a drained can of shrimp and
half a bottle of salsa poured over the shrimp and cheese. Add crackers
to serve it on and enjoy.
