Noah, build me an ark…

This has been a long, wet Spring. The grass is loving this rain, but enough is enough already, at least for a couple of days! At least the lakes are up, the new sod I put down the other night is happy, and I don’t feel TOO badly about having the motorcycle seat shipped off for a rebuild & new padding. Unfortunately, it looks like we will be lucky to get any apricots off the poor little tree again this year. I think there may be about a dozen left after the wind and storms we’ve had.

Went looking for a small gasoline or propane powered generator yesterday. Didn’t find anything that looked good; all but one were over 5KW, and I’m looking for something a little smaller. There was a McCullough 1K or so, but I’m going to keep looking for a little Honda or something. That last power outage brought to light the fact that the sump only needs a few hours without the pump running to cause a major problem. If I hadn’t been here to start bailing, we’d have had trouble.
