Living this close to the Arctic,
48°41'54
North and 116°19'20
West. No citrus fruit grows here. During the winter
months it reasonable to purchase in stores.
I took a quick look though our sale
fliers, no such luck finding citrus on sale.
I'm sure not a world hopper but one
thing I seem to forget to pack or will it when leave is my
toothbrush. When I'm traveling
Can't stand that
yucky mouth feeling. Usual I end up with a new toothbrush.
After looking at
the photo of the toothbrush it needs to be file under section 13
(garbage)
If it wasn't for
weekend photo hunt...I believe I would of called this
post...”Homestead Ouch” or something like that.
The scoffing we
built been working so far real good. We been working at the highest
peaks on place first. At this time we're on the south-side, then we
move on west-side in front of the picture window. The other high peak
on place is on the north-side. Might have a bit of trouble doing
that, reason is small deck and the chimney. One good thing the
North-side it's on cooler side of the place.
We need to get the
trim done before July 20th and we need to head into
Spokane Valley for our son Sawyer wedding
So far sure looks
like we will meet the deadline.
But for some on
for-seen life event we don't get the trim done. Most of the
scaffolding was put together with carriage bolts, washer and a nut.
It seems like
there always something to do around here. I could have also made wish and or a need list. I still like to get back to going though the
“shed/barn” in all honestly we have way to much crap...Statement
time...I been going though each section and taking a lease 10% to the
thrift store..if it crappy trash it goes in trash can...Once in while
someone hauls crap into the thrift store which should have been toss
in trash can.
I believe I could
even go though the shed/barn at latter date. But I need to finish the
first round out.
If I every get the
chance to go though it again. I believe I'll have a box sale sort of
like yard sale. List it on facebook under yard sale for my local area
It would read some like ...”.Clean out the barn/shed got some boxes of variety of
items. Nothing price come on over and take a look...donate what you
think is fair.”
Any how if they
need or want the stuff there welcome to it.
We ended up doing
some temporary repair to the garden fence. The mid post on the
south-side rotted out. To be factual post isn't even good for
fire-wood. It was so darn light to pack..One only need to stick under
one arm and skip away...No grunting no moaning.
We cut some post
but there still on our property on North-bench. But for now we use
some metal tree steaks. Until we get out and grab some post.
But for now we
will use metal steaks.
The garden is
doing ok but the weeds seem to keep pace with the veggies. We been
eating a few mess of spinach.
Froze little more
then 12 quarts of strawberries. We're having a bumper crop of
strawberries.
We're going to
offer Qunella the next picking of berries but I would like about 8
cups to make some pie filling.
Been having quite
a few messes of spinach now.
Something been
eating the green beans, but Murphy figure the birds been helping them
self. So we put a short roll about six feet long.
Can't say much for
the flowers now. But it seem like a lot of buds and blooms are
starting. Little later on we should have anther of color.
Coffee is on
