Thrift Shop
On the way we stopped at the new Thrift Shop that has moved into the old Yester Years Antique building in Eureka right at Rock House road. Got some great deals, including a nice pair of jeans for a $1.

Locked Out
The Corroll Electric meter reader had his pad lock through both ends of my end of the chain, and had me locked out. I'll make sure I never leave him enough chain to do that again. We carried much of our staff down, and my arms were aching by the time we got to the house. Later I took a hack saw back to the cattle guard and cut the link on the end and brought the truck down. Really didn't need to carry all that stuff down.

Great Weather
Sally and I had a beautiful weekend with mild temperatures and clear days. She got a few jalapenos and some spinach out of the garden, and the broccoli was beginning to look like it might provide some food. Sally soaked up sun while reading and relaxing I cut more cedars above the house, drug cedars to the burn area, cracked walnuts, and wrapped barbed wire around the wooden feeder (continuing my battle with the coons -- they were on top of the feeder Friday night).
