We are still here on the West Coast and have both received our Covid-19 vaccinations. I got the Pfizer vaccine and Clyda got the Moderna vaccine. Neither one of us had any reaction to the vaccinations. We still maintain most of our previous protocol when out and about as we mask up, maintain social distancing and use hand sanitizer after any contact.
That all being said, we do limit our socializing as not all of our friends are vaccinated yet. I still work at the Elks woodlots on Saturday’s but we do use masks and watch our interaction with people. It is only common sense.
Enough of that. I have planted a few things in the garden. Craig bought asparagus crowns, and potatoes to plant so those are in the ground. It may be too early but I think we are past the frost date for this area so they should be ok. Clyda’s sweet peas are up and about to climb the fencing I put up. My peas are up and the trellis is ready for them. I need to plant radishes but it has been cold and windy so not conducive to garden work right now.
Craig had re-done the garden fence into a more permanent fence from the slap-dash panels I had put up last year. It is all to keep the dog out as she likes to walk all over the beds usually chasing lizards. Yesterday she tore up the small woodpile near the garden looking for lizards who hang out there during the day. She has a large scab on her nose from getting into something in the yard. It hardly has time to heal before she knocks the scab off. Her poor nose suffers.
I had my truck repaired after the night when the horn started blowing around 1 in the morning. Water had gotten to an internal fuse block in the cab and shorted the horn relay out. A replacement fuse block cost a lot as Ford no longer makes them. Some place in Kansas has the stock and they hold it up for a Kings ransom if you need one.
After the fuse block was replaced, I took the truck to a body shop to have the rust around the windshield repaired and a new windshield installed. I also had the hood repaired and the front of the truck and the top repainted. It looks nice and should last as long as I plan to drive it.
A short post just to let folks know we are still here.
