What did you do today?

[8ntruck 8,881]

Over the last couple three days, we've been playing 3 dimensional magic tiles.  Mrs 8N wanted her sewing room moved.  This involved moving desks, tables, and shelves between houses and between basement and main floor.

 

To help with the shelving swap between the house and lake house, I woke Pack Rat, the AC B-110, up from his winter nap today tow the garden cart between the houses to swap the items.

 

This tractor has a very grabby clutch.  It is very difficult to feather the clutch enough to NOT carry the front wheels off of the ground for a few inches. I've tinkered with this machine enough to get it usable, but it is far from where I'd like it.  Today, i decided that the clutch will be the next thing I'll tackle.

Morning tasks:

 

A#1 not negotiable. Drink coffee. 

 

Then, tractor fun... we're headed to the garden area this morning.  

 

 First - rip garden surface. 

Then whatever conditioning Trina decides... Re-pile rows, mounds or whatever...

 

Plant. 

Add manure. 

 

Then, a few trips from the front yard, around the far side of the barn, to the garden, hauling the mulch I made with the Mackissic chipper shredder. Busy day coming up. 😀

Tore out all of the old weed paper and an old trampoline fabric out of the garden. Then had to move 4 bucket loads of mushroom dirt and topsoil from the driveway to the front flower bed with Elvis. Halfway through I was thinkin, "Is there enough gas in this? "  Nope!

  Went with a friend for my first ride of the season. Around 115 miles, went up into Massachusetts and back. 
  Good ride, bike ran well. No idea why but the right front turn signal busted off. Duct tape repair on the side of the road got me home. 
 I don’t have GPS and we both wanted to avoid all highways, so I scribbled directions for all back roads on paper and shoved em in my pocket to be referenced when we stopped

Pretty country up through the southern Quabbin region there. 40 minutes up Rt 202 and you're near my mom's place.  

We'll be down the weekend of the 13th to help her out some.  Stop by for 🐻 coffee.
