In the 60s today... there were severe T-storms around last night but unfortunately they missed us.

Need to ramp up the irrigation. The cows broke some PVC valves. The irrigation water has a TDS of only 30 right now... its all snowmelt pouring off the mountain, the river is running high for May.

This area has been invaded by pot growers for the last 3 years, and so I went to the hardware store for plumbing stuff and couldn't even find a PVC elbow on the shelf. They are all starting to irrigate and fixing up their pipes too.

Charlotte proves once again that she is cursed.  They put the new distributor in and she wouldn't crank at all.  It was defective.  As usual, BJ called everywhere and the closest one is in Baton Rouge.  It won't be in until Monday.

I called poor Judy to come rescue me once again.  She drove in in Jack's truck and we swung by Alexander's to pick up 3 sheets of 1/2 treated ply wood.  The tin is not yet in   Perhaps I'm the one who's cursed, not Charlotte.

...I was going to tell you to keep WD40 in your glove box.....some cars by nature of where the distro cap is located under the hood, are very susceptible to getting cracked caps......if you spray the cap down, wires and all....most times they'll fire right up....Jan had a little car that did it almost every winter.... spray it down, start right up......plus when you do a tune up....grab the old cap and rotor for spares to have if it does it again......just change the wires over (1) at a time....

There is much more snow than usual on Shasta for this time of year. The drought is officially over I think. I went out and got some pictures today. That's Shasta over the chicken barn.

And a pic of a peacock. The peahen has those little feathers on her head too, but he keeps pecking them off her head....lol

Looks great how much land do you have and did you ever find a growing operation on it.

[Mugwump]

......beautiful country........

[LizStreithorst]

Dan, if it weren't for the lack of rain I could live there.  It is just so beautiful...But I like green, and I like not getting cold.  I already live in the place that is perfect for me.

Tony, I complain when life doesn't preform as expected.   I guess that I have yet to figure out that life has a mind of it's own   I always get through it.  This 'ain't shit compared some of the positions I gotten into and come out better than I went in.  When I bitch pay no attention to me.

Mug, it was the distributor itself, not the cap.  Still, it always good to have a can of WD around.  WD-40 can save the day when least expect that the day will need saving.  Good idea.

There is 50 or 60 acres here. What I like about this place is that its surrounded by miles of empty ranch land.

Pots's legal now but all the illegal grows I ran across were on government land. They would find an opening in the forest and haul water usually.

I saw an add today for female plants, $15 in 4 inch pots. When I was a kid I planted some seeds in the back yard, and after a while I was afraid my Mom would recognize what they were so I got scared and pulled them out.

[Tony44]

Funny I use to save my seeds for party's and plant them in the plants in the house where the party was lmao

Liz I like to call it venting,it does a body good as long as you are smiling everything is cool
