Rattlesnakes like rabbits. Rats, too, I'm afraid.

Sun was out a bit. Went to town for the usual supplies and mail. Gas is $2.91-3.11. Saw one place last night with premium for $2.99, but that was it.
But, I digress. Sun was out, so I thought about doing a bit on the road and at least inspect the troops; check what the trees and the berry bushes look like. That's an idea whose time has come and gone, but is coming back again, and will disappear with the next shower. Been a ferociously wet monsoon season, interrupted by 3 weeks of mid-summer in Feb. I thought the plums were gonna bloom before Feb was out. I'm not sure they have, yet.
I really don't have time to do things right. I have somebody I can sell canning tomatoes to, but no time to start them anymore; that was late Jan. Costs too much to buy 75 or 100 seedlings. I'm thinking of just scattering a bunch of seeds in some beds. Next year, I can start them. We used to do that. Had a little wire under the dirt in the flat which heated the soil in a funky greenhouse. Always had the first tomatoes in town.
Saw on a bulletin board in town where the ex is selling "my" beehives. I've thought about bees again. Not those, tho; they have bad cooties. LOL
