Life under the container...

deuce and a half...

time keeps on slipping, slipping, slipping....

Pepino did its job today with a high inside of 80.5 at the max outside of 106. Ryan showed up at the end of the day with the fittings I needed for the grill. The brilliant part is that I showed him the situation and he automatically knew exactly what I needed.

Trying to get the ducks in a row to begin the next level of construction. Cleared and prepped the west side for setting the first course of cinder block. Went'n'fetched 5 buckets of primo sand for the mortar mix....then it got hot again. Spent the afternoon indoors prepping to order my translucent roofing material and shade cloth for the greenhouse. Got a little more cypherin' do to make the most out of the plan. For those who have asked: I refrain from posting an illustration of the final greenhouse plan because I prefer to just do it as opposed to presenting a plan. It's all in my head and will spill out onto the blog as it happens. Nothing like building a little suspense...

On The Level

Long stretch of nothing really accomplished this morning - just a lot of basking in the desert sun. Beatrice and 4 unnamed longhorns snuck up on me from the south and I obliged them out at the end of my driveway. Beatrice came back in and got another snack at the house. They hung out by my road till noon then finally went NW for a drink. Spent the morning prepping and baking a loaf of the Field Lab Specialty Bread for my buddy David to help celebrate his house blessing tomorrow.
David and crew came out for a visit followed by my bodyguard....I chastised him for not keeping the riff-raff out. Gave them the full tour and sat in the shade for a bit to catch up on all the details that haven't been included in my blog. They took off at 5PM to head down to 241 night at the Starlight.

Took 2 late hours to level and set container #3. Had no trouble at all getting the low end jacked up and set in place. Now I have three 5000 lb. containers leveled within 3/16's of one another. Put off the shower for one more day as tomorrow will be an extra sweaty one what with setting the forms and pouring the next bit of concrete.
