I was thinking about you & your situation back there. Wondering how it was going.... and if the saw starts and runs now.

I tried to start it yesterday Jason got it going, it will run wide open , but sputters and cuts out on idle.
I think a carb kit is in it's future....
Jason (neighbor) loaned me his Stihl yesterday ! So I did get to cut a 1/2 load of wood.. Good thing too as it's raining today.
He has been a god send... He was working at home yesterday , so at dinner time I ran the saw down to him to start.

Did this on Monday:
I loaded this trailer twice. That was loose hay from Jason's hay area, so yeah there is some nasty in the first load
For the tater base..



This is the tater bed Now ready for taters to be planted on Tuesday :



Taters in the bed. Tuesday it was a good planting sign .



And now fully covered.. The white marks on the panel gates is where the rows are of taters.



Wednesday I did some more mowing , with the little Honda, as that does all the cut ins and around both gardens.

Today it's raining soooooo, Not a day off , I might run to town in the truck

and I have not yet been anywhere near my garden this season yet.

Last week was summer around here, Friday was close to 90 degrees, sunny...........

This morning is cloudy, 48 degrees, wind warning up, and drizzle. Rain tonight and forecast for the rest of the week.
Snow in the Sierra's & up north...

It's been bloody cold.. Have the fire going all day !

been cool here..pollen is starting to fly so can not open the windows at nite..setting thermostat at 67 for excellent sleeping wx.

88 degrees last week, and we've had over .26" of rain overnight. Thunderstorms today and it's currently pouring out there with 47 degree temps.

Garage day!

as I said, cool here all week, hii's in the low 60s..forecast for 90 this weekend..

I keep starting small fires every morning

The heat is on here, sending it your way

We had one heck of a thunder storm roll through..
I crawled in to bed with HB..

We had the "May Gray" around here all the month of May. Cloudy mornings or fog, drizzle sometimes, and just gray days.
Then the June Gloom started. Same thing, different month and now we have a forecast of the same until the first of July.

Here too, my large garden is going to drown ,'cause of the clay shelf ..
The smaller one is on more of a slant .
Great for drought times , not so great for wet times..

Every day for a week. Weather says cloudy and occasional rain. Three days in a row beautiful partly cloudy and no rain. Did we get worst at predicting weather or are they afraid to say partly cloudy and miss a possible passing shower?

Dark cloudy skies here in the afternoons, thunder and flashes of lightning, but not a drop of rain.
