Book Club
Book club was at mom's house tonight, so Andy brought mom up here for dinner while our wives were otherwise occupied. I spent the day scouring the house and cooking. We had pork loin and cornbread. Andy brought a salad, wine and beer. After dinner we had drinks,...
Morels for Breakfast
Between the drought and fierce competition, I have not found many morels this season. But this morning I did have three mushrooms and about as many stalks of asparagus. I scalded the morels in water while I chopped and fried some bacon. When the bacon was...

Because I Can

Good Morning
8/1/26 6:30 61F (16C) Calm, partly cloudy. The moon has set, the sun is still below the ridge. The Grasshopper fire has grown to above 26,000 acres with zero containment reported. It's probably 15 miles south of here. I haven't seen any activity, maybe they...

Good Morning
7/29/26 6:15 55F (12.7C) Clear, blue sky. No wind. A raven croaks down by the creek. Another answers back in a harsh voice. I have been unsuccessful so far in finding a replacement for my broken mower. So I recline in hot tub, listening to the sprinkler...
