No social media aside from here.
Hows Sarah today.....you build a barn or rebuild an engine....anything exciting?Just us so far, I guess
.....I knew you were probably building or tearing something down....I mean, what else is there to do on Sunday?.....Just rebuilding the back deck. I gotta paint and finish it tomorrow. Phillip did most of the work today.

There sure wasn't anything on the boob tube. And, it was such a lovely day to be outside.I knew you were probably building or tearing something down....I mean, what else is there to do on Sunday?.....![]()
Only with the thought police.Dontcha know that thinking will get you in trouble?
Wasn't too bad here either....about 88-90...humidity prolly in the single digits, with a breeze....felt really good.There sure wasn't anything on the boob tube. And, it was such a lovely day to be outside.
Only with the thought police.
Please don't say it snowed today, Rich.....I be here ... or so I think.![]()


Given that I do that constantly, even to the abstracts of the abelian grape, it is no wonder I am always in trouble with someone.Dontcha know that thinking will get you in trouble?
We actually hit 82 degrees here in the great white north. Of course with winds 40 mph gusting to 55, it did not feel that warm.about 88-90..
OK, I will not say that it snowed today (although it probably did somewhere in Canada). And the grass is now green, although it is barely half an inch high so far.Please don't say it snowed today, Rich.....
Hopefully that grass is growing now....![]()
I must have 200+ green cherry tomatoes, I'm going to pick a bag of them next weekend to pickle (ferment I mean).Our squash is blooming now. Looks like the garden might be OK this year. All we got out of it last year was a few bell peppers. But then, we started it late.
it only got to about 60 here in the south....We actually hit 82 degrees here in the great white north
Damn...go from snow to 80+ in a week....well at least that will certainly make the grass grow like hell.Given that I do that constantly, even to the abstracts of the abelian grape, it is no wonder I am always in trouble with someone.

The mesquite trees here tell us when the frost is over and done with.it only got to about 60 here in the south....
Well kinda south.
And kinda windy but blue sky and no complaints from me.
bit of frost early this morning though.
I started mine late last year too...the sun wreaked havoc on the plants.Our squash is blooming now. Looks like the garden might be OK this year. All we got out of it last year was a few bell peppers. But then, we started it late.

Needles returning I assume.....same here, but they grew new needles about a month and a 1/2 ago.The mesquite trees here tell us when the frost is over and done with.
Good gawd. Even in Wisconsin, we never had frost that late.Here one is not fully safe from frosts till mid May typically.
But this year it may be mid June the way things are looking.
Mesquite needles? They have tiny leaves, and thorns. We planted one when we moved into his house.Needles returning I assume.....same here, but they grew new needles about a month and a 1/2 ago.
Seems like the mesquite just shed about half the needles, and begin growing new the same week.
Yeah well we do not typically get snow as late as April 16 either....Good gawd. Even in Wisconsin, we never had frost that late.
Kentucky and about another 2/3rds of the country....been an odd winter for many folksHere one is not fully safe from frosts till mid May typically.

I call them needles, cuz the leaves look like needles, tiny needlesMesquite needles? They have tiny leaves, and thorns. We planted one when we moved into his house.
I think he has been sending his weather my way. It just eases up a bit before it gets here.Just ask Rich.....
And all that white shit is now gone from the garden (although there are still a couple 2-foot drifts in the north tree rows, but the cows will have to deal with that, not me), so if the wind will just be less than gale force tomorrow, I plan to be out there ripping up all the old dead stems from last Fall and pulling weeds and carting it all off to the burn piles.Damn...go from snow to 80+ in a week....well at least that will certainly make the grass grow like hell.
The thorns on ours can cause a mild infection, but that's about it.Sarah, you have those nasty Chilean Mesquites?.....damn, now they have some real needles.....deadly....![]()
How big of a garden do you have? I assume quite large?And all that white shit is now gone from the garden (although there are still a couple 2-foot drifts in the north tree rows, but the cows will have to deal with that, not me), so if the wind will just be less than gale force tomorrow, I plan to be out there ripping up all the old dead stems from last Fall and pulling weeds and carting it all off to the burn piles.
It's about 50 feet by 80 feet and surrounded by 8-foot fencing (keeps the deer out) and lilac hedges on west and north (wind reduction and tomato shade) with wild plum trees south side (shade and wind reduction) and various other deciduous trees on the east side, but sparse enough to allow sunrise shining on everything. Lannie cans whatever we don't gobble during Summer.How big of a garden do you have? I assume quite large?
Lannie can the proceeds?
If it's half as good as my pear wine, more power to you. I'm hoping to get enough peaches off the tree this year to make at least a small batch of wine from them.Mixed up some Cromwell custard today....in one bottle....THEN...I added apple pear and dragon fruit to the other bottle of custard....damn that is tasty.

Good idea....damn, I haven't even heard the phrase Peach Wine in many years.If it's half as good as my pear wine, more power to you. I'm hoping to get enough peaches off the tree this year to make at least a small batch of wine from them.
