Never had duck eggs that I’m aware of

Neither have I. The idea of it just does not appeal to me.

The potatoes are looking great.
The whole potatoes are doing better than the cut potatoes.
The Bluebonnets are in full bloom under the windmill.

Would be nice if Dollar General would do the right thing and fix this.
If you shop there at times, just be sure to check your register tape.

This is disturbing but not totally unexpected. I don't shop at Dollar stores much. But I see them popping up in many rural areas along highways I generally drive. I took it to be a response to the needs of the communities. There was nothing short of a gas station/convenience store there in most places before so the 'dollar' stores were an improvement for some consumers. Most highway convenience store/gas stations don't have accurate prices marked on the shelves or the prices are not listed on the shelves or product. You have to get to the register with it to find out how much it costs. A lot of times things ring up differently at the reister at Walmart, TSC, HD, Lowes, etc.

It would be a blow to some of these communities to lose a 'dollar store' because of some lawsuit like this, imho. At least something is available if needed in a pinch, just be sure you know how much the setback is.

rain about to stop, 3.04 inches
neighbor stopped in, they had seen Lake Drew from their house and were worried I was flooding.
nice of him to stop by.

worked on my rv trip planning for several hours.
now thinking about where I want to go weekend after next. Opening season for most places.
Will probably go to place close by in Upper Black Eddy if weather is nice.

weeds and onion grass popping up, I ran the battery weedeater yesterday, thought about a first mow but decided to wait.
will be days before things dry out enough to consider mowing.

at least I'm not shoveling snow.

Drew, where is "C" on your map? Is it a stopover?

I can barely trace my Dads and Moms back one generation.

I have some spots in mine I need to fill in but probably going to have to travel to the Va/Tn border to visit some courthouses and cemetaries to get the details. Cousin went there recently and has a lot of info I need to get.

Good Afternoon! The winds have been out of the South and East today with is a little different than normal. Our weather usually comes from the west but we may be getting some from the Gulf Coast next few days. Been in the mid 70'sf today and slightly cloudy. No rain, yet.

The constant battle with vegetation continues.

Hope everyone has a great Sunday evening! Prayers for our Nation!

Thomas, does Boo disappear when that much snow falls?

Boo was out today cleaning his area as I was plowing.

Neither have I. The idea of it just does not appeal to me.

Wild duck eggs are richer in taste.

Drew, where is "C" on your map? Is it a stopover?

software assigns that letter, doesn't mean anything and I found two Cs which really makes no sense
Cool Sunshine RV park
Alamosa CO
but I think you meant Colorado Landing RV park in La Grange

my stops so far in Texas will be
Quanah (off 287)
Valley View (just above Ray Roberts Lake)
Alvarado
Georgetown
La Grange
Crystal Beach

big state...

last school board lady left, that's three flower shoppers in 24 hours
I'm just tuckered out from moving the merch...

should be a nice moon tonight
alas my moon flowers are still too small
maybe they will quiver a little...

am very sorry for the awful tragedy in Moscow. Lot of folks lost their children at that concert.
one would hope one's faith makes one kinder and more understanding.
Instead faith once again has been weaponized and politicized.
and this sure isn't new.
this song still resonates with me

I'm hoping our children are smarter than we are
so they can find a solution for humanity to better get along
