It took a good four hours but most of the garage is clean. I still need to go through the tools and stuff on the shelves but most of the junk is gone through and gone. Later in the day our friend Craig, who is our landscaper, came by as we’re adding a half a dozen aspen tree. Yes, the computer says that is grammatically correct. We were putting in some more spruce trees too but think we’ll wait on those. Trees are not cheap!
Ty went to dinner with Izzy who we think he’s asking to prom. Jag has a final today, two tomorrow and then Mandarin at 7:30 Saturday morning and then is done.
I thought it was smokey out from the fires in New Mexico, but the news says it’s just clouds. We can use the rain so bring it on. Today I’ll get more work done in the garage or start on the basement, meaning the gungeon as James calls it. That’s the vault where I keep all my hunting gear. James and I were texting a few times yesterday as he’s in Chile. He has a show in Santiago tonight. Tomorrow he and Ty are having a call when he’s in Buenos Ares for Ty’s English project. What a good friend.
Things are getting scarce on the shelves. Costco and the hardware and even the auto parts store have some blank spots. The stuff they do have of course is more expensive. Kellie, who we get our eggs from, says I’m her top priority and she’ll always have eggs for us. We buy about 4 dozen a week for $5 a dozen which is a deal compared to the $8 or $9 in the store for free-range, grass-fed eggs. I took some short ribs out of the freezer to throw in the crock pot for the NFL Draft tomorrow. Need to continue to rotate through our beef as we have another cow coming in August. Also, most likely more elk in September.
Time to get moving. I’m working out at 7. Looks like Ty is going to Western State in Gunnison. It’ll be great for him as the classes are much smaller than a school like CU. That will really benefit him. I think Saturday we’ll go shopping for a used car for him. Make it a great day, and may God watch over and bless you. Go Broncos!
