FOOD FIGHT!

Lacklustre morning as far as work goes - wasn't able to get at it before it got hot. Fed Benita then relaxed inside and read for awhile. Took a ride in with Ryan on his Mule (vehicle not animal) for a GrubShack breakfast. Came back home stuffed and dozed off to the dull roar of my swamp cooler.
Got two good emails this afternoon. Seems the film I shipped out yesterday arrived this afternoon (one day ahead of schedule). I love UPS! Mark fired off "the eagle has landed" message and also forwarded this link to a brilliant idea for my aquaponics experiment. http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-desert-lobster2-2009jul02,3,1969645.story How does Field Lab Desert Lobster sound?

Also got an email from my new solar cooking hero Matt West with a link to his solar cooking experiments http://solarcooking.wikia.com/wiki/Matt_West I really like the idea of a solar fryer!
Benita came back in for a late afternoon snack and had a confrontation with an unwelcomed guest. I missed the shot of them locking horns but caught her chasing the intruder off. She is pretty particular about her dinner company.

Had an early dinner then sucked it up and hauled 4 more wheel barrow loads to finish filling the block walls. It's gonna take quite a bit of shoveling to empty out my sand catchment dam...I reckon some heavy equipment is gonna have to lend a hand.
