Good morning, it may only be drizzling but that's enough of getting wet for me, inside for the rest of the day. It will be a nice break from digging holes. Yesterday the kissing gate went in easy, replacing another gatepost was a different story. As I dug down groundwater broke through the side of the hole. It made for some very sloppy tamping, though fortunately it was only a clapper post.

.22 Hornet is definitely a round you likely want to reload. But these days, finding ANY components for any caliber is difficult.

Rich, getting hold of ammo is a problem for us too in the UK. Last week I called in my local gunshop and was lucky to find a solitary box of Sierra 55gr .224 cal blitzking on the shelves, the first I have been able to get for many months. We can only hope the hoarders will stop adding to their stockpiles and give others a chance.

RIP Prince Phillip
99 years old
Will be hard on elderly Queen also.
That generation is coming to a close.
Likely there will be quite a public memorial
we can see on tv or online.

The new senior discounted phone plan from T-Mobile also included a free subscription to Netflix. We just got Finished watching "The Crown" series, almost feel like I know the family. Eric is the depiction of the characters how people in the UK view the royal family?

54 and cloudy after a shower...getting up to 68.

Phil, great that your wife is retired and you'll be spending more time together.

Chris, prayers said for your recovery.

Don, quite an impressive chip/mulch pile. I don't recall hiking on trails covered with chips, but have been on playgounds where it is used, and very nice.

Brought another load of splits up to the pallets yesterday. Interesting to see how much springtime springs up in just one day this time of year. Then used the chainsaw and pole saw to prune some huge lower limbs off a cedar that was encroaching on our flower bed. Put the grapple on the tractor, and along with some other clean up, carried 6 loads to the brush pile over in the north woods. Wife is happy.

Good Morning
It’s 45 with a high of 63 forecast. Partly cloudy with a chance of rain.

I beat the UPS driver here yesterday, but the grills did arrive. So I have two speakers to pack and put into FedEx custody today. Got the finish applied to the third one, so it was a productive day. Even found time to troubleshoot a neighbors electric golf cart.

I’ve got to do some electrical work at the restaurant today, they added some coolers for takeout beer, and need outlets for them on their own circuit.

Hard to believe that summer's comin'; 66 degrees this morning for a low and going for a high of 89 with a 30% chance of rain this evening; possibly severe thunderstorms.

But I don't expect to have to do any outside work today, and I DO hope it rains.

Good morning! A warm day. 68˚F heading to 90˚F, cloudy.

After cutting down 3' freeze burned hedges to 6" I did find a a bit of green on the bottom so I'll let them continue on for the summer and hope the warm weather will spur some new growth.

Rick do you have palm trees. All the palm trees around here are dead and the agave plants froze and have been cut back to look like big pineapples.

Our neighborhood is looking for ways to reduce the deer population. There is no shooting or hunting so it has to be creative. Now they are trapping deer with nets and killing them, then give the processed meat to the food bank. But the cost is over $40,000. a year which is between $250-$450 a deer depending on how many (80 to 180 deer) they trap each year.

Good morning, the low is 53°F and going to a high of 64. Wind ESE 14 mph. 40% chance of showers.

There is not much that must be done today, so I will take it easy.

R.I.P. Prince Phillip.


Have a safe day all
