March , I barely found February,lol, well I’m here now , may as well tell my story , the road to my success is like having squire wheels on your manure wagon , if your lucky enough to ride in soft dirt , your load rides better , hard surface not so well , kind of like dealing with people that like to stir the pot , then just walk out of the room knowing everybody else back in the room has to figure out why or what just happened ,
on other news, last month my Truck decided to take some leaks , been noticing small drips of oil , and then it happened the drips or drops got bigger , drops turned into puddles , after three cans of gunk and crawling around , I think I found my drip, drop , puddle maker , and it points to the bell housing for the main puddle maker , possibly a rear main and not far enough for a IPR or leakage in the valley , my second drip , points to the water pump gasket or within the Lopop , couldn’t possibly be the BRP oil cooler , because that’s the second one in two years or could it , I sure hope not , so now y’all understand that manure wagon is full of $#!t and probably should look at those 6.7 power stroke diesels , now to get the wife on board . Ha

A manure wagon? We used to call that a turd hearse. One of my first lessons pulling that was that you can't go too fast as it will fling crap at the back of your head!

I honestly don't remember who I voted for. I voted by mail, and did not write down my answers anywhere.

We've had rain here since dawn. We're up to a little over 1/3" at this point. First real rain since January 26.

Not much rain in The City. It was wet. But nothing like the Mid Peninsula. It rained enough to form puddles around Woodside, Menlo Park, Atherton, and Redwood City.

I'm home. The sun is shining. Everything in San Francisco is dry. I can't even tell that it rained this morning.

I gave red wigglers. They have been doing a great job eliminating junk mail, cardboard boxes from my Amazon deliveries, yard debris, food scraps.... Nothing they won't eat..........But they are slow. They eat everything. But it takes months. If there was a way to make them work faster. Now I see that there is a company which wants to compost human remains. I should have thought of that first.
