Time to shop for seed starting supplies for some of us. Days are getting noticeably longer.

Might see if I can get another high tunnel truss frame in this weekend. Holes are dug, frame’s laying there and I can park the dysfunctional F150 there as the crane truck now that it’s no longer a driver. It runs enough for that and I don’t have to worry about dismantling the “crane”.

The red Chevy(I hate red for a vehicle color) seems to be a good truck.

I made it to work one slippery day from 40 miles away and was 1 of 5 people who made it in out of 50. The others 4 lived within 2-5 miles.

Blows their minds, but like you, I grew up in a place where we didn’t see actual pavement for a few months, aside from the major highways. We drove on packed powder. I learned to drive doing donuts in mall and large store parking lots. The cops would kick us out at some point and we’d move on to another one. Good times.

“Days are getting noticeably longer.”

We had some SUNSHINE today after weeks of overcast skies. Beau called me outside to see it, but the puppies and I were already basking in it on the south-facing front porch. :)

“I learned to drive doing donuts in mall and large store parking lots.”

When we ventured out last week I specifically asked Beau to do a few donuts in the Walmart parking lot. Mr. Straight-Laced wouldn’t do it, LOL!
