We are currently being spoiled by the cool weather and getting a really nice extended Spring.  It&#8217;s awesome.<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t get as much done yesterday as I hoped.   Probably got as much done as I could have.   Did my pickup on the south side.   Stopped at the local Habitat ReStore just because I was in that part of town.  It was nearly empty.  They&#8217;ve been working on making it nicer and cleaner, but this was nuts.   Large parts of the store were just empty.  There is something larger going on, when it&#8217;s not full of donated materials, and we&#8217;ve got thousands of huge building projects going on around town.  Either it&#8217;s too early in the build process to have excess, or the builders learned to be better at ordering and don&#8217;t have any excess.  When the charity shops are looking threadbare, I get nervous. <\/p>\n<p>After that I went by my secondary location and moved some stuff around.  Then it was kid taxi for 2 hours.  Never made my pickup on the north side, but they will ship my small hobby items.   Once I had the kids sorted, I worked on getting stuff loaded for the BOL.  Wife&#8217;s minivan got the light stuff or stuff that can&#8217;t get wet or sit in the sun.  I&#8217;ve still got a full truck load of stuff, and I&#8217;m debating whether to bring the big solar panels.   I decided to go up today, so I could  finish loading in daylight, and not be so tired for the drive.  Also, I don&#8217;t like driving at night, especially if I&#8217;m already tired.<\/p>\n<p>So it&#8217;s sleep in a bit, then load up, and hit the road.  My buddy up there sent a pic of the grass, so I know I need to mow before it turns into  a need to bushwhack.   There&#8217;s always plenty to do.   Oh, and I&#8217;ll need to plant the two apple trees, rig some sort of irrigation, and do something to keep the deer from eating them.<\/p>\n<p>Always be working, always be stacking&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>nick<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cool but warming later.
