Around here that would be a job for The Rusty Tractor . He's
sittin' out there in the yard with his chains on and 2 concrete
blocks over each wheel for traction . So far this year he's only
gotten to play in the snow once ... and I hope it stays that way !

Must be tough. Here it is 71°F, real feel 77°F and sunny clear blue
sky's. Oh the agony we suffer. Wife painted a door today.

Actually it's in the mid-50's here with patchy clouds and I spent a
good part of my day laying concrete blocks . If the weather holds
I'll finish the cellar walls this week and move on to the other
support columns . All that rain in December has me about 3-5 weeks
behind schedule ... and the Mrs. is quite irritated .

I've followed your block project. Please post some final pics in the
spring when you finish. About time for me to start some food plants.
Clean the gas grill, smokers and pool.

I started the 'maters and peppers on the 11th . I have 18 cells of tomatoes
(6 each of san marzano , amish paste , and mortgage lifter) up already , no
word from the peppers . You don't grill in the winter ? Shucks , I did a
pork butt just a couple of weeks ago on the smoker . Yo ho ho and the turkey
is next ...


I planted beets and radishes in the garden back in November and put up a
cold frame around it - like a mini hoop green house. I pretty much left
them to fend for themselves due to time and health issues, but last I
checked I've got beet greens and some small beets still growing. Didn't
get a look at the radishes, yet, tho. They were on the other end of the
cold frame.
