Met with Coast Guard to search for a missing hunter hunting hogs on the intercoastal spoil banks. Coast Guard found him using their FLIR. Got home at midnight and off to work at 3 am......

Put out 2 rolls of hay for the cattle.
Took the window covers off in the greenhouse, then watered everything. Also started moving some of the hanging baskets back to the porches.
Started the 'begining-of-the-month' chores.

Made a pot of pinto beans. I also plan on making ranch rice for the other side dish.
Prepped the beef fajita meat for grilling.
Made a spice cake with creme cheese frosting for dessert.
Finished moving the rest of the hanging baskets from the greenhouse to the porches.
Received 12 kilo bags of 'durham semolina' flour from Italy, so we got them vacuum packed for storage. Wheat is up 30% already this month due to fertilizer prices & some countries are stopping the export of grain products...

Went to the local yokel gun show.......Hell, I was hoping that there were some sellers there. All I found were collectors, pricing wore out ass crap for new and higher prices.........Tried to get my 5 dollar entry fee back.........
Finished repairing the bird's water tub, then painted it. Continued repairing the base for the new umbrella.
Planted carrots, Swiss chard, spinach, 'Buttercrunch' & 'Red Sails' lettuce,

Made bread.
Culled the tomato & pepper starts, selecting the strongest plant in each pot. I'm aiming to plant them in the garden on/about the 20th.
Cleaned the kitchen sinks & then waxed them per Mrs. Ranch's request.

Oil estimated to hit 200 this summer, maybe 300. This country can't handle much more of this. Bad times on the horizon. The Big recession is near.
A chilly 42 degrees & raining (0.53" thus far)
Went to town to get a haircut & then did the weekly shopping (3 stores).
Unleaded gas is $4 & diesel is $5 per gallon. Yeah, this is going to finish crashing whats left of the economy.

Went to the church this morning to help hand out food from the food truck. Lots of groceries for anyone that needs them........
I'd go for it, mine went in 10 days later than my normal date. Just bear in mind that if we have a hot/dry spring, that the yield will be lower. It all depends on the weather over the next 14 weeks.
Last spring I planted my potatoes late, but then the weather was ideal & I ended up with a record harvest.
Another cold front blew in this morning (I thought we were done with winter). It was 55 degrees when I woke up, it's currently a windy 48 degrees & dropping. I won't be working in the garden today...
The other day I scored 2 cakes of live yeast!!! I haven't seen it in any of the grocery stores that I've shopped in over the last 30 yrs. It was pricey at $1.69 each!!! Today is the day I've chosen to use them... I made both bread & pizza dough (along with the required sauce).
Moved all the hanging baskets back into the greenhouse, recovered the hose bibbs & drained the irrigation system again ahead of the hard freeze tonight.
Refilled the redbird feeders.
