What did you accomplish today?

[whitebb2727]

Damn dude, looking good! Mine got flooded out and the weeds are taking over again.

Thank you.
I don't till or hoe mine any more.

Come fall I open it to let the chickens scratch and poop in it. I close it come spring I sprinkle alfalfa, castings, compost, kelp, diatamacous earth, crushed oyster shell, lime, garden tone, and bio tone.

I spray it down and let it sit until I plant. I plant my plants and when they come up I lay cardboard between the rows and then mulch it good.

I'm installing drip lines this year and going to buy a DC pump to run on a deep cycle battery hooked to a solar panel.

I will put a switch on it. When it gets dry turn a switch on and let it run on a timer.

Its a lot of work to setup but once you do, you will love it. Its a lot less work in the long run.

Went out to another fsrmers market. I know I am a dirty hippy lately. Bought some Moar strawberries rhubarb and asparagus.

Oh and I bought 24 tall cans of diff beers, 1 pack of backwoods. Now lets go cook a chicken bake a pie and drink as many beers before 10 pm as I can.

Min % on the beer is 8

Very permaculture'ish

Yesterday I drove to a specific spot on a secluded river to pick up quartz - it isn't very common here & you have to really look to find any quantity of larger pieces.
I also dug up a very pretty wood fern and tended to my best buddies grave.
I can see it out of our sun-room windows.

That's what I'm aiming for.

I went and looked at a used tractor the other day.

I rented a back hoe last year and plan to rent it again. I want to build a pond and stock it with fish. We raise chickens. We raise beef and pork at my father in laws.


After I get my garden done I want to build a self sustaining passive greenhouse.

They're a bitch to set up, but amazing when done. Lots of planning. I wish I had the time, climate and space for one.

I built a small green house and used rock and water jugs. It worked very well. I couldn't grow all winter but it gave an early start to spring.

The days start getting longer here well before its warm enough to plant.

Still cleaning up from the storm. This silver poplar wasn't leaning this far before the storm. Somehow it's defying physics at this point.

 

[UncleBuck]

just prepped the wife's "walk in closet" (actually just a bedroom) for a simple remodel.

gonna scrape the popcorn ceiling right off and onto the carpet, throw out the carpet, retexture the ceiling, put in a resilient vinyl plank floor, reset and trim out the window, put in a sill on one wall, a built in organizer on the other, and paint.

@tangerinegreen555 has some competition now.

pics to follow once work starts.

I've been fighting to get the door off a truck for 3 hours now. They put a bolt going from the inside out, but put the AC box right next to it. My knuckles are all bloody from jamming my hand up into a hole it physically shouldn't have been in. WTF!? I've changed. ..IDK..50+ car and truck doors when I worked in a body shop, this one is the worst @420God, you make it look too easy.

 

[420God]

Got the Ford primed, had to pick up another quart of paint to make sure I have enough. Hopefully I'll get it sanded and finish painted tomorrow.

 

[Jimmyjonestoo]

Lol.
I love the smell of polyurethane in the morning...

Hauled 4000 pounds of flooring into the house to acclimate (that's 2tons isn't it?), painted 5 doors, transplanted squash plants to the garden, then painted some window trim. Got home, made epic Caesar salad (I have a killer dressing recipe), homemade seasoned baguette croutons, and now I'm sitting on my ass in a coma....

tomorrow: repeat ('cept hauling flooring) More painting, need to do baseboards and more doors...

Friend of mine hooked me up with a summer job at his Uncle's body shop. It's an entry level position, so it's mostly bitch work - grinding, cutting, lifting etc. but, the pay is surprisingly decent. Plus I love working with my hands, so I am pretty stoked. Perfect way to pick up some new customers if nothing else. I start tomorrow, wish me luck.
