a nice day

The day started out warm, and was quite nice overall... did get some bike work done, got a bit more to do before I post to Craigslist one more time... got some good bikes that are going to find new homes.

Cut some wood this morning, got some to split out back. Talked to a wood cutter and may work a barter for some wood. Yes, barter is better, especially when you are on a fixed income.

There will be a beach bike ride tomorrow... I need my dose of salt sea air. (edit: The ride was a warm desert ride instead) I will get re-energized.  Next week will be prep for the mid month swap meet. Organizing, prep the trailer, load the boxes, and be ready to roll out before dawn next Saturday...

Going to make some good bread next week. I'm finding even the good stuff in the stores to be lacking, no flavor. Got to consider finishing a raised bed planter for some crops this year. I checked out my 'dirt', an old goat barn full of wonderful soil. I also have a rabbit pen to clean out. Got to make the planters critter proof, I don't want to share with my numerous critters. I got to find an old drying rack, there is one around here somewhere, as I have a whole lot of semolina flour, and a pasta machine. Time to make some pasta.  Fresh, sun dried pasta. My friend Steve has offered some of his tomatoes, so maybe some fresh pasta sauce can be made too..

More stuff, to throw, I need to bag some things for the dump in the morning.
