Well guys life has been trying of late. Dads health went south and he passed right before Christmas. I spend a couple weeks on the farm securing it and locking it down. Came home to a COVID out break in family and had to quarantine for couple weeks and dodge that bullet. Got back to work for four days and wife had a heart attack. Spent a solid week with her in the hospital. She’s doing fine thank God. Anyway will be on and off for a while trying to refocus. Got another tree down at Dads of the Curly Pecan. Hopefully it will spalt like it's sister tree did. Might have some green bowl blanks later. It is some primo curl though.

Keep me and y’all’s thoughts and prayers.

Big D

Positive thoughts and prayers on the way.

Although it's tough to do right now when you are taking care of others, don't forget to take care of yourself and find a little time each day to decompress.

Hang tough Rodney. I'm sure this will get better, but it's hard to see that in the midst of the storm. That's why we need family and friends . . . to remind us. My prayers go out to you and your family for healing and the strength to carry on . One day at a time is enough to deal with. Hope things can get better soon
There are brighter skies ahead brother, stay strong and hang in there.

Glad COVID didn’t stop you from seeing your wife. These are some tough times when loved ones are sick or dying in the hospital but can’t be seen by family. Sometimes I have to remind myself that family time is more important than wood time. Don’t hesitate to reach out to a friend for help with that pecan tree. You’ll get done quicker, and it would be good time to reminisce about your dad.
