End of March 2021

 Wow! Another month almost history. 

Keep adding miles to the Traverse to the tune of over 50 miles a day average. But, kicked that up a few days ago with a 170 plus mile journey along the coast checking out what was left after the two hurricanes came to visit and destruct. 

Did finally get hitch carrier in a built but package was in bad shape and all the little screws and nut loose and some missing in the torn box from Harbor Freight. Did have to enlarge the hole for the hitch pin as the one on the carrier was not in line. But, got it so can use when needed and not have to tow my trailer. 

As can see by my gas log for the Traverse, the gas prices slowing rising. 3 of these fill ups were non ethanol which is a bit higher then ethanol gas. 

And did make a couple batches of wine. Grapefruit juice from my tree. And Kumquat from my tree also.  Toned down the grapefruit and it came out at about 5% ABV but the Kumquat was wow at 18% BVA.  So, in good shape for wine at present. 

Then decided on a journey to LA 27 and LA 82 down South  of us. Where the Strom damage was unreal. But neat scenery on the way down with the rice fields starting to show green. 

Love these uncrowded back roads. 

The green rice starting to show. 

Finally learned about this flower in the center. Milk Thistle and this one of a big family of them. 

And some more green poking through the rice fields. 

And the cows staring at me as I go by their pastures. 

Then the sad part of what was once Creole , La. Nothing left there. 

And what was left standing was destroyed big time. 

This brings us to the last day of March and one year older for me. Sheesh. But did have fun at Tee Bob's in Lake Arthur as coming back from my round about trip. 

So, as April is a day away. We'll close off this month.
