seventeen times everytime

seventeen projects, almost halfway done.

solar array, ordered, arrived, at the distro, who forgot to tell me, then sold some of my parts to someone else. hooray.

most of a water system purchased, waiting for the other parts.

tarp-barn part finished.

even the deck itself, still waiting for further reinforcement.

sounds like a good time to go to california, road trip, take on some extra stewardship projects.

woo.

also from the hwy127 yard sale.
apparently intended to be a coal stove, as there is a placard inside saying that using other combustibles in this stove is a felony (go me, add unauthorized combustion to my lists)
anyone have an opinion bout this issue?

otoh hand, a $50 woodstove. caint argue with that.

sure hope it doesn't leak CO and kill us all!

yay!

in town buying a water pump. i may have running water soon. how wierd is that?

krystal hotspots suck - all my windows come up like mobile-lite versions, cannot get flickr to load right so cannot blog images. therefore have nothing to show, therefore have nothing to say.

august sucks, gaddamn hot. like winter in reverse, can't stay indoors, forced to relax by the creek and take it easy. my new routine involves a long siesta on the pebble beaches of spring-fed streams. this usually picks me up enough to do unpleasant work for a few hours up to sunset.

the tarp hovel (tovel?) is on pause for now. very unrewarding, and will not be nearly finished before my next cross-country sprint, so i thumb my nose at it, for now. scheming on stealing timber from logging next door - but can't move logs with just two hands, or can't figure out how. need more hands. at least four more. maybe if i were a centaur...

go on out and wander to the edge of the abyss if you need a little perspective. we dont even have to think about how impossible it is that we get to think. even sobriety is a blessing.

the universe is cold and dark, and here we are, in a heat wave, ignoring our blessed soil.

so fucking lucky.
