Another trip between Georgia and the New York farm

Its unusual that I make the trip this late in the year. Although it is highly unlikely it would snow (and bring the road salt and all the other bad stuff). It is often rainy. I had excellent weather. The main objective was to bring the brush hog up and mow trails. The trails have been disapearing and there are a number of bush islands appearing everywhere a small finish mower can't do the job. The tractor worked well. Back up over a multiflora rose bush with the brush hog up and drop it down and take care of business --at least for another couple of year or so. I spent many hours years ago yanking these things out of the ground with tractor and chain which yields a more satisfactory long term outcome. I will be doing the same with the largest ones for sure. I understand that these bushes were originally planted as a natural fence. Animals and humans alike don't like the thorns. They are invasive.

Guests in Duluth GA

Unusually, we did not travel over Christmas this year. We had some visitors in Duluth. The McMullens had a good visit. We did a few activities:

  • Ian and Douglas got to drive the Honda S2000---
  • Douglas and I did some drone fun at a construction site... I almost got the truck stuck. Four Wheel Drive saved the day, but the truck got quite muddy.---
  • Visited the huge Chinese Market nearby---
  • Went to the Georgia Aquarium---
  • Went to the original Varsity restarant downtown---
  • Rode the MARTA---
