    Good evening. I took some leftover stuff back to Lowe’s and bought some stuff to move the sprinkler heads in the backyard. We have chili in the crockpot for dinner and I’m looking forward to it. We haven’t made chili in a long time.
    Good evening, hitt. :) Enjoy your chili.

    I got on a fruit flavor gig some time back. Now I'm bored with it. I decided to keep 3 of them. Blackberry, blueberry, and mixed fruit. To make it a bit easier I started looking through old recipes. Made a bottle of Earl Grey last week, it takes a good steep so I won't be trying it for a while. Good thing about old recipes is the ingredients are all sitting in the box. Couple more I'm looking at. On the lookout for new recipes as well.

    I have a job to do. I enclosed a section of the yard so the dogs could go outside, the fence is only 30" high because the dogs are small. That was a long time ago and the pickets are rotting away and need replacing. I made them from full size 6' treated pickets cut into quarters. That was a lot cheaper than buying precut small pickets. Some of the horizontal 2X4's need replacing as well but the posts are still fine. I might have left it a little late in the year. Maybe just cut the new pickets over the winter. It's a long fence so a lot of cutting.

    Why not just replace them with 4’ pickets. If I remember correctly, they were less than $2 each.

    It's a thought. I'll get down to Lowes and see what the prices look like. It really took a huge amount of time to cut up the large pickets in two directions then shape the tops.
