Stopped by the construction site of our new farmhouse being built at Eloika Lake WA to bring hot chocalate to the framing crew. Trusses are supposed to arrive next week. Dani and I will try growing a few giants this year but havent been able to chip a soil sample out of the frozen pasture yet so our expectations are low for a PB this year LoL....

Ran into Jack having a Bloody Mary outside the Flamingo Sunday mid-morning. He mumbled something about 3:00 AM boat races. I wont tell Jack, What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas!

New pumkin farm is coming along. You can see the foot print of the new 30 x 30 shop in the upper left. Hoping to get a seed in the ground this year but probably wont have it finished until mid May so may be another " building " year.

Dang coronavirus has shutdown all construction so it looks like our new house will be delayed a few weeks meaning we probably will not be growing again this year! Oh well enjoy it while you can Jim LoL!

So frusterating to be at a standstill waiting for state inspectors to come out of hiding and bless my electrical / plumbing work so I can sheetrock my new house! Will miss another year of competition growing because of the covid 19 drama. Stay safe everyone, any thoughts on how to keep the viability of our seeds up? Thank you all, Gads
