Diana, had my coffee! I am sure you had yours.

Thank you for all your work on this thread!

Finally Spring in Eastern Kansas! Rained last night. Looks like it will be consistently over 45 degrees from here on so I will be pulling off all the garden coverings off my rows! (Except the Broccoli and Cabbage. (A fabric insect covering is still better than BT spraying!) Will check on previously planted tomatos. (Put a heating cable down next to them under the fabric.

I recieved a thornless Raspberry Shortcake raspberry from Jungs. Its a tiny delicate little thing!

I need to up pot and start to get it used to sunlight and getting bigger! (Trying to concentrate on things that I can move at some point. I would like to move to someplace where I can see the lights of a town but not live in the town!)

After two sessions of Skid Steer repair this week, and a lot of watched videos, we FINALLY got the new track back on the CAT beast. Beau could then move the pallet of cement that was in the way and my mower was freed! Beau checked her oil and vitals for me and my plan for the day is getting as much done as I can before we start getting rainy again next week. I'll see how it goes; may need the baler by this point, though the first mowing is always the most satisfying to me.
