New food ad day and I’d love to head to the grocery store now and be back right at full daylight but I know the meat chests will be slim pickin’s and probably won’t even have this week’s sale meats out there until mid day. You would think they’d have the butchers come in at 3am but nope, not at this country grocery store. They work 8-4 or so.

Woke up late myself, after 4am. Just made my third cup and about to head out to beat the skeeters for a bit. Nice cool 68 degrees this morning - 100% humidity of course. Will work in the shed until it’s light enough to work on vehicles.

When it gets hot, 2pm or so, I’ll head to town.

New addition the the To Get list is some of those grey steel 12” shelf brackets. That will get a few 1x12” boards off the shed floor and up on the shed wall for seed trays. Hopefully the hardware/lumber store will also have 6” versions I can hang lights from. All six trays and all six lights will fit end to end. Will be a lot more convenient than that 2x2’ mini greenhouse with stacked shelves and the lights hanging from the next shelf up and tangled mess of cords for six lights and four heat mats. All the cords can be strung up out of the way across the brackets that the lights will hang from.

Bad habit of mine is to save boxes for way too long. Made some room in the travel trailer. I have more boxes in the house to get rid of too.

Not a bad little trailer really.

Need to get it pulled out from under the trees before one falls on it and wash the mildew off.

More Oster Kitchen Center stuff, including more in the boxes.

That foam will go outside on the cardboard boxes I tossed and all will be burned here shortly. Then I gotta work on the car, something I used to almost enjoy but hate now.
