Today was fairly productive….and just a bit crazy. The variety of thoughts and experiences I’ve had today has been a bit out of the ordinary. Overall – it was good.
Normal day as far as getting up, a couple of fried eggs and some toast. 20-minute drive to work catching up on some messages via Telegram and a couple of short videos on Youtube from people I regularly follow. In this short timeframe, I heard about insane laws passed in Canada as well as the movement of American air assets that appear to be looking for Russian subs off the coast of the United States.
Work went as normal. Met with a local transportation company about moving 12 storage containers. While out walking around the wind picked up and suddenly…..snow. It started to snow. A few days ago it was around 70 and today it snowed. Crazy. Hey – welcome to Maine.
After work, I hurried home as I had arranged for a retired ex-lobsterman to meet me at the cabin. I had a small boat for sale. Guy loved it and paid me $500. Money will get put away – future projects. When we bought the house there was a boat and a homemade trailer in the garage. So – the boat has been sold and we decided to keep the trailer. It could come in handy.
I worked in the garden a bit. I’ve held off planting live plants as the forecast is saying there is a good chance of a frost tonight. Well, this weekend is supposed to be in the 70s and I have every intention of finally finishing all the planting. I’ll be sharing some pictures and videos soon, but, for now, I have several raised beds, in-ground rows, and mounds – and also some actual raised beds sitting about 3 feet off the ground. Made from scrap wood.
Came in and performed a cognitive assessment for a company I have applied to. Looking for a better job. Better job? Better pay + better hours + better benefits = better job. We’ll see.
Next – mounted a license plate to Maine Prepper Girls’ Jeep. In Maine, you have to have a plate on the front and the back. I drilled holes and mounted the plate on the front. She’s now rock’n the two plates on her 4-door Wrangler. Sweet!!!
So many projects. They will get done….eventually.
Oh – now I’m sharing this with you….LOL.
Take care all.

In Montana the same thing can happen. We have had snow while camping; in May, June, July, August, and September! It’s just something you don’t worry about. You have clothes with you for it.
The to do list is never ending.
JP in Mt. is so correct.In the Flathead area we have nine months of winter and three months of poor skiing. However we can hunt or fish every day of the year.
The young folks love all of the summer and winter outdoor activities and us
gizzers are happy with a good fire in the stove and an interesting book.
We are all glad that John has found a good place to live and a good job.It
does seem that there are never enough hours to get all of the chores done.
Moving is a real pain in the buttock’s.I told my two boys that I hope they
like where they are living now cause dad is done helping load and unload
the U-Haul.
Hey JP we are going to do a trip to Winco in Missoula this summer. Would
you be interested in breakfast at the 4Bs in Deerlodge?
Every one keep keep an eye on things.The black swans are circling,looking
for a place to land.
Sure. Give me a date and time and we’ll see about the schedule.
