99% finished.....

 7:52 am - Saturday - January 31st - TWW - 28° F, humidity 31%, cloud cover 2%, wind 5 mph out of the east....crystal clear, blue, sunny skies today with a forecast high of 64° F.  The view this morning.....


....and on this date in 2013 TLE and I were watching our 35th Cedar Key sunset.....


.....this time from Dock Street.

Our goal Friday was to finish attaching those old fiberglass, corrugated roof panels to the north and west sides of the greenhouse.  The south and east sides have two layers of welded wire fencing making it difficult, if not impossible for rabbits to squeeze through, so we have focused on the north and west sides where we only a single layer of welded wire fencing.  We began around 11 am, and finished around 1:30 pm.....well, 99% finished.....






.....what is left may take another 15 minutes to finish, but we were tired of getting on our knees then standing up to move to the next section over and over.  The only thing we have growing in the outdoor growing beds are onions, and the rabbits have no interest in them, so we'll finish what is left to be done when we return from Phoenix on Monday.  Why are we going to Phoenix?  Well, Sunday Charles and Phyllis are going to retie the nuptial knot, and we want to be there for that.  I will be posting while we're gone, so you'll be right there for all of the action.

We're in the middle of a very nice weather stretch right now, and we're almost to the point where we may get out the anti gravity chairs and sit on the 'lido deck' in the near future, and resume our sunset fires on the 'viewing deck'.  Today, Saturday the high will be 64° F, and Sunday 66° F....that's a major heatwave for us, and we're going to enjoy it.  In Phoenix the temps will be in the low to mid 80's while we're there.  We'll be leaving shortly to make the 3 hour drive south.

Thanks for stopping by!
