Morning all

Construction going on all over

Nice, work is getting done.

Hot, yesterday hit close to 90° good time to be in a porta potty.

Still no permits
And now the city wants a survey. 2 grand and it will be about 4 weeks before they can get here. Why? We are following the line of the house so why do we need a survey? "Well, you just need one" asswipes

But back to coffee for now.

And a musical interlude

Life with a badass soundtrack is pretty cool.

 

Thinking about a good lead based paint for the inside to add a little tang.

 

Good Morning Everyone !!!

Currently at my AO 0921hrs , 75° , clear skies ,3mph wind from the East and high temp of 88° today

While everyone down the hill is in the high 90° temps and sweating it'll be nice up here especially once the Desert breeze picks up around 1300hrs !!

 

All three of my cats are hunting a bird right now thru the window and its funny . They're making chirping , clicking and chattering sounds !!!

 

Sup

 

One good thing about this county is they list the requirements on line. I called to ask questions and was told that it's all right there. No secrets and nothing hidden.

 

not sure why the pic went bye bye..... let us try again

 

That is the city of Glendale. It wasn't noted on the plans and no one asked for it, until the inspector came by. The inspectors are clueless and look for ways to fail you.
The more they have to revisit, the more they get paid and justify their salary.

They also asked about a soil report.

Dirt and rocks, just like every other house in the area. They let that go

For now

 

Garden tilled up pretty good for first till. 7lbs deer jerky drying. I think im gettin soft. son says everyone says best jerky they ever had. will you make more? maybe they think its ok and kissin my azz will get them more. but what ever. I enjoy it now time to hydrate and watch the dehydrator run. have a good afternoon all!

Well, there ya’ go Andy, just move to AZ.

I got nothing...

 

My garden is a bit smaller than yours. I have to have a fence around it to keep the deer, rabbits and dogs out. Yes, the dogs. They will eat the beans and peas right off the plants. They eat carrots also , but I have to wash um first. The cats see the garden as a giant litter box.
Might get till it this week if things dry out.

 

afternoon guys

 

Doesn't even feel that warm , it feels like low 80° temps

 

I was using my Dad's 026. His neighbor bought a bigger new saw and asked Dad if he was interested in this one. Dad sold to me what he paid for it and now I have a descent saw of my own. Much easier to buy used when history is known.

 

About had enough for today

 

deer get in mine some but i live trap the groundhogs, they are hard on the tomatoes. or i shoot them if i see them. never heard about dogs in the beans. interesting

 

Thank God for good people in this world. A good friends son fighting cancer with Bryce Harper. no names just shout out for Bryce
