As usual, me and Brenda go roaming in the afternoons. Back roads to see what's happening on the farms. What may be differents on other back roads. Cruising speed generally 40 to 50 mph on the good roads and 25 to 35 on the rough ones and gravel.
Love watching the sky colors on the roads less traveled.
Lots farmers getting fields ready for spring planting.
Saw these people cutting the 2nd rice crop.
And with the winds of late, A dust cloud when the farmers are working the fields.
Love making a trip to Houssiers park to check on Bayou Nezpique at least once a week.
I mainly do the Frontage roads instead of the interstate roads. Set my cruise control speed at 45 mph as the where I can get the traverse into it high gear.
And, just see what's happening in the 10.
Finally started getting some rain storms and did it wake the ants up. Had several new nest's pop up after the rains. So , added a power poison to get them gone. Usually takes a couple of days and no ants.
Then I use a water hose to wash away the remains.
Decided to work on the Grape wine. Used a chopper blade setup to tear the grapes apart and just juice and water left. Now about 2.5 gallons in a bucket and around 6lbs of suger added and yeast added. Go to work yeast.
Then just yesterday, transferred it to a Carboy to let it finished. Then clean the bucket and put away till the next batch.
And checking early this morning at a set of bubbles every 3 seconds so the yeast doing it's thing. Did check alcohol content and at 6% ABV presently.
Now, to see what the winds are gonna sent our way this day that looking at the sky at 3:30AM and what a show of stars. Love it.
