We worked quite a bit on the bee farm this week. Somebody got the weather controls away from Crazy Granny and normal(ish) weather returned. We took advantage by getting our neighbor and rabbit supplier to disk up the garden for us.
With the garden squared away, and probably as pretty as it's ever been since we broke ground, we planted our onions, lettuce and kale.
We helped Pop hook up his post hole digger and he dug our post holes for the bee garden. We pride ourselves on hand digging our holes here at The Acre, but the weather has put us behind the eight ball on time so we went mechanical just to get up and running before the bees arrive.
After we gave the quickcrete a day to set up, Lawman went down and made a door for the farm.
We took the solar charger off the little food plot then took the battery out and charged it up. The charger is probably forty years old so we figured on replacing the battery, but one day later the charger showed it was fully charged. So we put it back together and mounted it.
After we mounted the charger and installed all the insulators we had on hand, we took a break to get in some trigger time with our new his/hers handguns.
We still have some work to do on sighting. We forgot the tool for the sights when we loaded up to go down to the bee farm, so we will have to go back soon. "The Outlaw" would have been proud, Cupcake broke down and cleaned her own pistol after we got done. Too bad he's batshit crazy.
There was a little food this week. Lawman found a recipe for buttermilk bread. It was pretty good and we will probably keep it around.
Lawman made a slow roasted brisket one night. Edna Wolowitz would approve, it just melted in your mouth.
Sunday after breakfast we started our seeds for peppers and cabbage. Then we made the weekly pie. Back to butterscotch this week.
We ended the week with wings.
