worst only hit -35C this year... and that was only for about 11 days. but we didn't have much snow this year to insulate the roots... so I am thinking that is what did it!

If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.
I'll try and get some pics put up.
Picked the first peaches of the year today, more tomorrow, I got a wicked sunburn mowing the yard since I couldn't mow it for 2 weeks it took twice as long. Can't figure out why one side of the yard grows 385% faster than the other, lol. Got standing water in the back yard, gonna have to do some drainage work this summer when it dries out. Got some roof repairs this week had some damage from wind, that's done and the roof has a clean bill of health. More blackberries to pick tomorrow, don't have time to can those this week, so we're freezing in small batches. Strawberry jam, and smoked salsa are getting canned tomorrow. Gonna roast 14lbs of maters and a bunch of assorted peppers tomorrow morning while the smoker makes coals. Also digging purple potatoes tomorrow.
Common sense is so rare these days, it should be re-classified as a super power.
It seems like my yard it taking more time than ever or maybe I am just getting older and it is taking me longer to do things.
Pruning, digging up a bunch of plants which have gotten too big. What I would give for an excavator.
My hot tube is leaking and it is a built in one. I just might make it into a planter and buy a portable one. I really need it after all this digging.

So if it is predictable and preventable then you better prepare.
Just ordered another 10 USGI mags from palmetto state armory. 8.99 ea and in stock (for now). In light of recent events, I figured it may be nice to have more.

I'm seriously thinking about buying a several month old, slightly used Harvest Right Food Freeze Dryer. Brand new from the factory they are $3215 delivered, and I can get this one for $2200, so about 1/3 off. But I on the fence on this one as it's still a hell of a lot of money...but hopefully I can make it pay for itself and start putting back some high quality freeze dried food. Anyone have an opinion or advice to help me decide?

Where can you buy a dryer for under $36k? I keep seeing them go for $36-$38 k. Supposedly the dryer will do 300-400 lbs of food a year.
Thanks
