Pre-emergent Sprayed
Beautiful day today, feels like spring is in full effect. Did some tilling and have opened a new front on the battle with the sand burr, we sprayed pre-emergent that is supposed to prevent the stuff from coming back up. Got to use my new backpack sprayer in order to get it down. Also got…

YouTube Channel
So the whole YouTube, Reels, and TicToc phenomenon is kind of lost on me. I can barely remember to take photos when I should let alone put up a video. So fast forward to a week ago, Sandy has figured out how to download video clips of the CCTV and stitch them together to make…

Broccoli Cheese Soup
BCS is one of my favorite comfort foods, it’s not really the soup you have with a grilled cheese sandwich but pair it with a club or BLT and it’s heavenly. The best commercial that I’ve found is Jason’s deli and I’ve been trying to figure out how to make it since I first tried…

Caught a Raccoon
We’ve kind of adopted a calico cat that kind of moved in under the shed after I built it, we named her Cali because, well it took no work. We’ve even built a little hutch for her to winter in and it stores the auto feeder and camera we affectionately call the cat house cam.…

Last January Weekend
It’s still amazing to me how quickly time is moving as I get older. 2023 is off and running and January is already over. I was over at Adrian’s for his birthday dinner and was saying my goodbyes and told Rick I’d see him at men’s breakfast and he said see you next weekend, I…

And A Cold Front Arrives
I made hey when the sun was shining yesterday and the day before that by washing and polishing the vehicles. Today a cold front moved through, nothing major but it cooled it down. We managed to make it to the store to provision ourselves for the camping trip this weekend. $150 and it wasn’t really…

Wax On / Wax Off
I’ve been lucky enough to have a light schedule at work and today and yesterday we broke records for the high temperature, 84 yesterday and 85 today. So taking advantage of the temporarily pleasant side effect of global warming I decided to wash and wax (polish) the Xterra and Truck. I got the Nu Finish…

Trailer Wiring
I’m not sure if I shared this before but I’ve been having a devil of a time with the electronic break on the RV and it all has to do with the connection to the truck. I saw it with the Chevy, drove the damn thing back from Ohio with the truck beeping at me…

RV Carpentry Skills
The only cabinet in the kitchen at a lower level is the one next to the oven, it’s where we keep the pots, pans, toaster, coffee maker and the like.Originally it was made with rather flimsy materials that while did the job, didn’t hold up to the riggers of the road. Oddly enough there is…

Welcome to 2023
It’s been a while since I blogged and there’s been a lot happening. Now that the holiday’s are behind us I’ll hopefully get into more of a schedule when it comes to putting down my thoughts and memories. Mom is fine, getting better day by day. We went camping and managed to head to NYE…
