Nice and balmy 68° out at the moment. Had a rough week end and hoping today will be much better.

Neighbors wife passed away Friday after a year long fight with brain cancer.

Then yesterday we were out walking our shepherd when the neighbor across the streets, Yorkie they had just rescued a few days prior decided to go into kill mode. Left their front step and came across the street after our shepherd.We tried everything in our power to keep that darn dog from getting into the reach of ours. I actually had our shepherd by the collar at that point keeping her head up. Trying to sweep the Yorkie out of harms way with my feet. Well the Yorkie came back in and jumped.

Long story short, the Yorkie didn't make it and the neighbors wife is upset. Everyone was traumatized over it.

Fired up the smoker about 8am. Got a mixture of of hickory and mesquite firewood in it.

Got two 7lb chuck roasts on there for pulled beef. Roasts have been marinating for two days in a mixture of A1, Worchestershire sauce, and soy sauce.

One of the roasts is gonna get sent to the neighbor whose wife passed, along with some seasoned taters, and corn on the cob.

RNG, do any of your motorcycles require premium fuel?
No. But one of the conversions I do on all the BMW twins is installing high compression pistons, and to prevent detonation, an additional spark plug in each cylinder. Runs fine in everything I've put in it, including Mexican gas poured from a Jerry can through a cheese cloth strainer. :oops: 😄

Good Morning!!!! 54F @ 7:15AM. Sunny. High 78F. Winds S at 5 to 10 mph.
The 10-day is calling for showers next Sunday, but less than a tenth of an inch accumulation. Water districts are starting to announce drastic cutbacks in water allocations, and the farmers aren't happy about it.

Very nice weather here yesterday, no wind, mild temperatures, perfect for spraying herbicide. Got done what I needed to, but the Kubota side-by-side has a coolant leak somewhere and it overheated twice. So no real progress on the ToDo list.

I did get the rest of the hoops welded up, but none installed on pallets. Had to run into town for a 4 hour CCW course and qualification. That didn't finish until 9PM, which is my usual bedtime. That made for a long day.

PG&E inspector was a contractor, real nice guy in his mid 30s, living out of a motorhome with his wife and two kids, going where the work is. He didn't give the power line easement a very good grade, it being choked with brush and harboring several trees that could easily reach the power lines if they were to fall. Now we'll see if his report will make any difference.

A home a couple miles east of here caught fire and burned yesterday, no word yet on how bad it was. Firefighters responded quickly and kept it from spreading to the surroundings, which are starting to dry out with the lack off rain. It's gonna be another long fire season...

I was putting the tractor away yesterday when I spotted a garter snake slithering across the driveway. It was a young one, but very bright so it must have just molted. Then last night a jack rabbit jumped onto the road in front of me and ran in the headlights for at least a quarter mile before bailing off to the side. Bet it slept good last night. 😄

Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekend.

Good afternoon, gosh it is windy here today, must have RNG's share. We have all been out in the garden and usually have to drag Max back in from his hunting grounds. This time after being almost bowled several times he was only too keen to come back inside.

Our grandson likes pulled pork too
