Summer Starting to End on the Farm

It has been good spending time on the farm. I really had forgotten how quiet and dark it is here. It can actually be a bit unnerving. The leaf doodle bug was put to work in the forest. However, it looks like the car will be going back on the road. We can say it failed field trials,but that would only be partially true. The better utility value at this point is more suited to getting a teenager back and forth from high school. The mycological aspects of the farm did not disappoint. The pics of these shrooms are not photoshopped. The coal stove (very heavy) is loaded on the truck. It will be rebuilt in Georgia if I can save it. Coal stoves are increasingly out of production. When they are gone they are gone. The small wood stove is now in its place. The pic of the red sky in morning was indeed a warning of weather. We had strong storms and tornados in Upstate NY. Although I was travelling much that day in the area, I missed the worst of it.

Water Main Break

We had a water main break at the church. It brought back memories of my water main breaking one week after I bought my first house in the early 80s. And it reminded me of the quality job I did installing a water main at my house in Victor NY. I had lots of help from family and friends. I was amazed to learn that jointed CPVC pipe is allowed in Georgia for water mains. Up north water main breaks in the winter are much more of "a thing."
