22 June 2015

The days fly by as you get older I think. And, as the days get hotter, the outside activity slows down for me. But,
The Graden, a great crop of tomatoes and cucumbers and bell peppers. Still waiting on the two little cantaloupes I see happening, and the dozen or so Watermelons of both red and yellow meat. And causing the back yard to look like a jungle.
The Dewberry crop is near done. Gave several gallons away and still have several gallons in the freezer. Also a batch of Dewberry wine happening.
Also in the wine department, put some fruit wine back in a jug and added a small amount of yeast and more sugar to it. Sweetened it a bit and looks like APV is up to near 2%. Hmmmmmmm. So, after a week of it sitting and no action in the water trap, rebottled it and have it sitting.
Still have some Dew berry and one bottle of fig wine from last year.
Think I need to make smaller amounts as 5 gallons is a lot of wine.

On  the bikes,  Noting done to Suzy but ride and still loving my time with that bike.
The KLR kinda makes me work more on things I do to it. And sometimes not doing it correctly and having to redo it. Finally got the carb working good and most of the problems were my adjusting things the wrong way. But, it's finally doing good cept for the drain plug seeping a little. Need to work on that next oil change.

The boat > Decided to change to a 24 volt trolling motor system at a cost of about 1500 dollars. Could of went cheaper but wanted some features that required the extra, plus helping out a pro fisherman with expenses on the batteries.  Have the old system for sale but only two calls on it with no sale yet. Still have the one from my Alumaweld boat up in the garage and need to pull it down and see about it and put it up for sale also.

With the high water from the rains , have not been out on the water much in the past months but starting to look like normal weather so need to get some early morning stuff in .

House, still repairing what comes up and and painting.
And , that's about it for now.
