Blueberry jam, freezing Okra, and jalapenos. Picked up some reloading supplies and some ammo. Did a partial sort on some food storage looking for expired dates. Found some, tomatos were deemed no good. With the wifes stomach issues, better safe than sorry. I did rearrange some of the totes to get a few ready to grab and go and give a wide range of options.
Ordered hamstick pairs for 40, 20 and 6 meters to go along with the antenna mount I had, for these 'mini-dipoles'. Next step will be either an intelligent tuner or a tuner/SWR pairing, and a 10' chunk of the previously mentioned fence top pole, preferably halved and threaded to accomodate a coupling for manpacking ease. Got a car magmount mobile antenna for the TM-241 and the 1/4 wavelength dipole for the Htx-10. If any have heard tell of a single antenna capable of accomodating 10m, 6m, 2m, and 70 cm, I'd appreciate a shout.

Been getting the place in shape for having the family over for a reunion next month. I did some major pruning of my trees. The garden is starting to produce, carrots, beans, artichokes and melons. The nectarines. plums and strawberries are starting come in.
I bought a bunch of canned good and made sure things are being rotated. My daughter passed her EMT test and I promised I would put a medic bag together for her so with my stuff and the purchase of a couple hundred dollars more of equipment ordered she should be set. I also ordered another Brokos belt with all the goodies to go with it for her.
I also picked up a Motorola HT 2000 radio from a friend.

So if it is predictable and preventable then you better prepare.

Reloaded 250 .55 gn .223 FMJBT and 250 9mm 124gn FMJ. Bought two 7.62 ammo cans to store loaded ammo in. Weighed and measured, one can is about 35 lbs of 9mm and calculates to be around 1120 rnds. Havent done 223 yet, so far Im still stuffing mags and havent loaded enough to put into cans.

Built some shelving over my work bench big enough to put my gear tubs on which makes room for more tools and every day use stuff in the garage. Work bench has been pretty useless this summer, now it's not gonna catch overflow crap, so I'll be more productive with my limited time because I won't be cleaning before I can use the work bench.
