Chilling out after a long day at work. I can’t complain though with only three people now I stay busy.
Spent the afternoon at my wife's uncle's 90th birthday party. Glad we did.

Watching 19 year old @AutoMechanic on the deck kicked back sipping exotic sweet water
gnawing on a side of beef while his 60 year old father push mows the lawn.

Work took me out into the countryside today so I stopped to look closer at the crops. I'm not into farming but it does not take rocket appliances to see how bad things are and to realize that these fields feed this country and a pile of others. The whole of the prairies are suffering from drought.
Most of the canola looks decent enough to still be alive but stunted big time. The wheat and peas are beyond saving now. All I can hope for is that enough farmers will let it go for green and yellow feed to help the ranchers. Hopes and dreams won't be feeding our horses this winter.

Reading this post.
Hanging out on the Bonneville Salt Flats for Speedweek, with friends.
Live audio stream for those interested. It seems to be intermittent, with long periods of downtime. But occasionally you can hear Landspeed Racing history being made.

Installing a new Qualcomm in my dads truck. His bit the dust because it was run on 3G. And going to get a drink at the gas station too.
Kids having a sleep over so I'm just relaxing now. Cut some lawn, did somw chores and asked the girls to grab some baby carrots, peas and lettuce from the garden. Well turns out the potatoes are coming along quite well too. My daughyers friend, who is 11 comes from a farming family that has quite the garden. She checks the spuds and digs them up and away we go!
So we had a nice salad with supper and tomorrow we are doing farm eggs and homemade hash browns for breakfast. Might BBQ some veggies for lunch or supper.
So I grew up in a family that did a lot of gardening. I never appreciated it and cursed having to do anything with it. In 2008 or so I did a small garden at my first house and still did not have the discipline or the appreciation yet.
Well I'm glad I dove in this year! My girls and I worked on it together and to see things come to fruition and use it to feed my family makes me immensely proud.
We also picked up our 1/4 beef today. A friend sent one of their Speckle Park 4H competition steers to the butcher. Incredible beef to say the least. Pay more up front but cheaper in the long run and so much better than that high density feed lot garbage.
So now I segway into my need to get a pellet grill.

Finally got the Jeep back and the auto up function on the driver's side door wouldn't work. Texted the SM, told me to hold the button for 5 seconds up and down to re-calibrate. That worked. Must have been from the battery being unhooked I assume?
