guests...













My pomegranate tree is sprouting new leaves - hope that means we wont be getting another deep freeze in February.  UPS dropped off the rest of my towing gear this afternoon...a pulley block and a 30' towing strap, both good up to 10,000 lbs. Made some good headway clearing a container today.










Forgot I had overnight guests arriving when I bumped the sushi dinner to tonight.  Keeping it on ice for one more day.  The Field Lab Gypsies came out for their second annual camp'n'cookout.  Only 2 from the original crew made it this year (with 2 more new guys)  but they cooked rib eye steaks, potatoes, and a dutch oven peach cobbler just like last year.  56,74,31,0,C

Hey John, just wondering. Do you have any problems with condensation in your containers? Is a problem here in Florida.

Fugu is the shizzit !Catch em here,

failure ).Neighbor kid sent his whole family to the hospital a few years ago.....ooops. Ever see "the serpent and the rainbow" ?Think I'll order it on netflix,sleep with one eye open holding your pillow tight ! hahahaha.. love

@RJLB -
where are they called toadies?
河豚 or 鰒; フグ?, literally "river pig"

Nice progress report today, on several fronts.

Sounds like y'all had a festive evening over your way last night. Wish we could've been there.
