I think you and pollard will be getting some unsettled weather Friday-Saturday.

Last I heard the weather guessers are guessing there's some wind coming towards the end of the week. 50mph-ish gusts kind of wind - not terribly destructive but it will bring the dead/loose stuff out of the treetops for sure.

Yesterday after work I picked up the framing lumber I need to do the end walls in my hoop house, two 1cu/ft bags of potting soil, two packs of mesclun mix seeds, and a pack of cayenne seeds. After I got home I unloaded the lumber in the garden and got most of the south end wall framed up.

I'm heading to STL after work today to see my Mother from another Brother. She needs some help with her garden so I'm going to look at it to see if I can get in with the tractor and rototiller to work it up for her. If the tractor can get into the spot I'll go back later after the ground dries up enough to work without turning it into a cloddy mess. If the tractor won't fit I'll come up with Plan B to get it ready for planting.

It's gonna be a long day...

NWS says level 4 risk for us, Friday night.

Level 4 almost always results in some significant damage somewhere in the area it covers... :-(
