Great Day to be Alive

This seems like a good time to update this site. It has been raining most of the night and everything is pretty soggy outside this morning. Can't really complain about that because it waited until we got the tomatoes and peppers planted yesturday. We planted 32 tomatoes, 4 bell peppers, and some beets. Still have to plant some hot peppers and a few other things later. So far we have planted beans,yellow squash, patty-pan squash, cucumbers, sugar snap peas, potatoes,and Texas 1015y onions. We put 12 wheelbarrows full of horse barn compost on both gardens so if something don,t grow, I quit !!!
So much for the dirt work. I'm getting tired again just thinking about it. Gardening is a lot of enjoyment but a lot of hard work too. Granny came out yesturday and watched me work for about 15 minutes and had to go in and rest for a while. Yep, that watching will wear you out real quick. You want to watch and not do too much of it.
Speaking of work, things are coming along pretty good on the BBQ truck. The red and white tile floor is in, and we are working on the countertops now. With any luck, in another week or so we will have them finished with the sinks in and the water tanks in place. Also working on the wiring system. I,m certainly NOT an electrician so every step of the process it's back to the manual to see where to go next.It's an exciting and fun project but I will sure be glad when it is done. We have other important things to get on with, like fishing and garage sale shopping and etc.
Well, breakfast is calling ! Guess we will just have a simple little breakfast of sausage links ,fried potatoes, biscuits and gravy, eggs orange juice,coffee. Just a few of the things that drive my doctor crazy. Wish you could be here, but since you can't we'll think of you while we eat.
Have a really great day and keep watch, soon the trumpet will sound. DM
