Disaster in Spokane

Happening now. Today, while we got rain and cool conditions in my little area, to the north east a couple hours drive, a disaster is unfolding. I’m seeing first hand reports and videos of people fleeing and evacuating. Big city starting to burn from different sides… frightening for those who are there trying to leave.ContinueContinue reading “Disaster in Spokane”

Rain. Because my mud was dehydrated. :)

7:20am, 61°F, light rain August first is starting out with an interesting weather day in my state. Half the state is under a PDS fire watch or is already burning, and the other half is wet, with a few parts above 7000 feet potentially seeing snow. There will be wind too, for the entire stateContinueContinue reading “Rain. Because my mud was dehydrated. :)”

TOO MUCH OF A DREAMER

HOW NOT TO DESTROY A FRIEND TRYING THIER BEST 7:40 am, west coast, partially cloudy 59* I know I committed the crime of not posting in a very long time again. I’ve got to stop doing that. The truth is I get so busy and let things distract me. There is a ton going onContinueContinue reading “TOO MUCH OF A DREAMER”

Frost this Morning

2 common phone weather apps and the truth. If the frozen water and ice on everything didn’t tell you the truth, the apps sure aren’t. It’s below freezing. Currently at 7:30 am it’s 31.1 degrees (the truth). It’s the coolest morning since I set up the little weather station above my garden. It got downContinueContinue reading “Frost this Morning”

Seeds- potential in a tiny package

It’s 7:20 am. Still mostly dark out for a few more minutes and I’m sitting here thinking about seeds and bacon. I’m considering what to make for breakfast. Should I open that package of turkey bacon this morning? Still undecided about that. Breakfast means I have to start the day and actually start doing stuffContinueContinue reading “Seeds- potential in a tiny package”

Atmospheric Rivers are back and my heart goes out to Jamaica

There is a lot going on weather wise. Here, it’s the normal gross fall weather that starts bringing rivers of moisture and wind. Nothing too out of the ordinary yet. But across the Atlantic Ocean an island is about to be demolished by a historically sized category 5 hurricane. Worse than any storm that hasContinueContinue reading “Atmospheric Rivers are back and my heart goes out to Jamaica”

Getting some paws in the sand.

There was some speculation that last night was going to be frosty. It got close- 34.7°F here. But no frost on the ground or the truck. Still, I had taken precautions and brought a few not hardy plants into the camper for the night. And since it’s a clear night again, I brought them inContinueContinue reading “Getting some paws in the sand.”

Catch Up (ketchup?)

So many tomatoes ripe at once. To say I’ve been busy is an understatement. And that’s on top of having the Covid. I went to the trouble of masking in public. I hunted down and fought for the newest Covid variant vaccine. And it was a fight because I’m not 65 and the confusion MrContinueContinue reading “Catch Up (ketchup?)”
