First "hot" day (70) bugs out, shorts on! Made a chicken wire fence sifter and started sifting all these loads of dirt! Some nice stuff was dug out of the mess so I'm using it damn it! LOL I said to my wife last night "Let's get to the flower beds before the bugs come out" I think the bugs heard me! Bastards! :)

Same here...1st day above 70 and I am sporting shorts too....Feels so freakin' great!! I live in shorts and flip flops all summer, as much as possible!

Broke the riding mower out and i'm half done with the lawn...Cheeseburgers on the grill for lunch, and the vaporizer is pre-heating!!

Worked in the grow room til 2 am again, then I got woke up at noon by the sound of a motorcycle outside my window...I was like WTF?? It was my 85 y.o. neighbor delivering maple syrup via ATV, and he left it on my back steps...leaking all over because there is no seal in the Mason jar....lol., but it was a nice thought...They are awesome people...except for the year they chopped all my weed plants down, about 10 years ago!! :dunce:

Mrs. Stool & I were planting marigolds Friday and the bugs kept bouncing off my face like little kamikaze a-holes.
WTF

Maybe they could smell the weed on my breath & thought biting me would get them high... :eyesmoke:

Yes, blueberry pancakes real soon!!

I'm not sure regarding the plants...They had to see them though. There is a 20 acre hay-field behind our houses, and there were dead trees here and there around the perimeter. I used the dead trees as landmarks, and planted near each dead tree, around a dozen plants, with fencing around them. They got permission from the farmer to cut the dead trees for firewood, and every one of my plants was wiped out. So I think that was an accident, and at least they were young knee high plants, but they absolutely had to see them.

Another time, I had a few plants in his apple orchard, and I was watering them regularly at night. He must have seen me watering, because he did chop those down with his tractor and brush hog....He normally didn't mow that part...I could see and hear him coming but couldn't do a damned thing but watch...and it was his land after all. I actually managed to salvage a few buds. We are buddies though, and I have helped them out a bunch of times....and them me. Great neighbors!!

I believe I have won the water battle. I noticed where the hose bib and sprinkler line came off the main it had somehow raised up a bit. I loosened the coupler and that let it settle back down so the house feed was inline with the line from the meter. Replaced the scarred up pipe, put the repair coupler on it, used my new channel lock type pliers to snug it a bit and Bob's your uncle. I'm leaving it uncovered till tomorrow to make sure. I have a bucket of dirt I'll put back in the hole, there was a bunch of rock around the pipes and I'm not putting that back in there in case future work needs done. Buds and suds time. Snagged a 6er of Newcastle to treat myself.

Booyah, no mas agua, nary a drop. Time to backfill and clean up this mess so I can move on to other fun stuff like deadheading all the roses, trimming the neighbors hedge, running drip lines for the corn...IMG_0011.JPGIMG_0012.JPG
The raccoon that claimed this water puddle as his hand washing place will just have to find another one.

It was 71° here yesterday! First sorta normal day since the pandemic started. I found a new trail, they blocked access to the trail we went to a couple weeks ago. This trail was a little more boring big wide trails for the most part with only a few features. It did have a big crazy fun descent at the start, but you had to push you bike back up it to get out. Got home and made some cookies that I promised my friends I would make, I put mint extract in them so I wouldn't be tempted to eat any.
