I finally beoke down, and agreed to help out at a friend’s farm. He’s a young, hardworking guy with an agriculture dregree, working full-time for a local very large vegetable and grain farm, while farming sisteen leased actes on his own. Kind of hard with a wife and young boy, Organic vegetables that he sells at farmer’s markets and small restaurants. His tomatoes are badly in need of trellising, so that’s my plan for today.

If I don’t post ever again, you’ll know the mosquitos bled me dry.
 
Another doctors appointment today - here in town though. Then lunch at the Wagon Wheel Cafe and groceries at the Holiday Market and 4-Corners Market. After that I'm going to do about a forty mile loop around and in the area past a couple of reservoirs and some ranches to check water levels and if the ranchers/farmers are watering at the same level they have in years past. We're getting dryer here and I want to get an idea of how our well might be doing. So far, we've had plenty of water at the tap but it doesn't hurt to keep on top of the situation. "Patch" should be enough knife for anything we're likely to run across.

I am sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine it. They say it’s the hardest thing ever. I lost my mom almost a year ago now and I’m still grieving.

And I don’t harm the spiders, same as the snakes, unless they are venomous.

A funny little story the wife had these sticky back 3D butterflies all over the wall above the stove. So I look up from my chair one evening. and evenly spaced right amongst them was a wolf spider. I imagined he thought he was camouflaged pretending to be a butterfly. So now when I see one I think “I’m a butterfly!”.

Smoke up for you and your family Jeff. Y'all have been on my prayer list for some time - Manny too.
