Good morning!!!!

I think David is at perpetual Happy Hour...
Luau maidens waiving to him as he mows with his tractor
hold that thought

got car washed, new second key for car, got approval to take Lexus back to seller's body shop
to do a better job of affixing front bumper plastic. It popped out after a good bounce on that mountain trail.
need a clip, or something.
also made appt at Lexus on thursday to fix the 4wd Lo problem with car. Covered under warranty and a free loaner so
no hassle. Wish I had caught that when I bought the car.

lovely day out though my nose is already itching.
need to go organize the garage so I can see if car fits in.

ordered an update for car nav, 299 for them to do it, I don't see a usb card so perhaps internal.
showed 2017 on maps, that's kinda old. I like the nav system, simple to use, though
I haven't tried voice commands. I did get a notice from Sirius saying they had switched my account to new car,
didn't work as of this morning. Probably needs an overnight but ? will check it in morning.

I'm off early to the dermatologist, lots of job security for them, I already know of three problem spots, and then
will hopefully meet friend with his MB work van and pick up my pergola from Lowes. 8 foot box, too big for my car.
then apparently the rains come in again

Good Afternoon,
Nice walk through down town Nassau. Oldest son bought us lunch and we had a good time with the grands.

I'm more than happy to let them live in the tree-line or out in the scrub, but digging under foundations is a no-no.

FWT, the last one I got was with my 20 ga with skeet shot, not ideal but he is gone. You are right, no tunnels under my house

Have a good afternoon

Good (Tuesday) morning. Overnight Low of -0.2C and it's presently 15.5C, mostly sunny with a wee breeze.

A lovely lazy day yesterday, 'topped off' with a very good Parish Council meeting. Home by 1815.

Just 'tootling along'.

That's about it, take care all.

Went there on my honeymoon

Dug 2 post holes for lower deck, and filled 1 with concrete, other partly full, stubbed up some rebar. ran out of concrete mix, got more from Lowes tonight. Took awhile to dig PHD out of barn, and assemble it. I took it to ohio once in pieces and never put it back together.
the 3rd hole is close to my electric lines coming into the house, so will dig that by hand. I should be far enough away, based on the last time I had miss utility mark it, but better safe than electricuted.
My brother was mowing at the farm today. Dad had to come out and tell him how.......... He wanted him to mow behind the house instead of the barn fields... He also mowed the yard.
Need to mow my yard tomorrow before more rain comes.

Only the top of the posts, bottom gets left as is.

Sounds tasty …

50F and clear @ 22:00, calling for a low of 43F overnight.

Got a couple of tomato seedlings transplanted before deciding that the soil plugs they are in need to dry out further (too heavy to lift without breaking roots) Might be ready by late tomorrow. If not then Wednesday.

Spent the afternoon planting brassicas instead. Got all the "Green Comet" broccoli, "Early" and "Red Acre" cabbage planted ... along with about half of the cauliflower.

So about 10 cauliflower and 3 kohlrabi left to go. The cauliflower will fill out those 2 rows, kohlrabi will have to go somewhere else.

Put up more masonry ladders for hoops and got it all covered with insect netting too.

There were 2 volunteer cabbages that somehow managed to over-winter and come back, sprouting new leaves on the old stems..

Going to have to check into that more ... probably if they are mulched really well (which they weren't this past winter) more of them might make it. Will be interesting to see if they do anything.

Found out the roof coating is probably going to need at least a couple of good warm days with sun to dry out and really firm up.

Scored a 199K Btu Ruud tankless water heater with all the valving/piping from a friend today. Controller board has issues, going to see if it's something easy like a cap. Hopefully whatever smd component it is, is readily available.

Time for a snack, then the rack.

Hope everyone had a great day ...
