Opfff. Gas prices at the cheapest station in Tulare County. Farmersville CA. More than half the vehicles at the pumps today were work trucks. This is a farming community, makes that diesel price even more painful.

Hwy 245, Tulare County. True, no mountain views but look at these bright beautiful yellow lines. They will save lives. Every asshole speeding downhill will cross randomly into opposite lane. Bright lines will slow down those mistakes. Fingers crossed

Pistachio trees are ripening. Nuts will have to split open a bit more before the trees are mechanically shaken. Shakers have a platform, catching the nuts before they hit the ground.
Pistachio nuts still on the tree, a few weeks before harvest Pistachio trees. About 7 yrs old.  Trees usually productive at 5 yrs.

Look, my new security system! Shoots far and fast. Bonus if I’m disarmed my ‘weapon’ can’t really be used against me. So Welcome to a STR neighborhood, where strangers are driving around looking and/or casing your garage.

I’m on my roof four times a year max. Cleaning the flume & gutters. View is pretty good up there Also the only time I ever think of my dad. He fell off his roof 23 yrs ago, died of his injuries a month later. Old people don’t belong on roofs. (Oops, F! Now I’m old too. Time for a rule change )

While I feel the pain of any pet loss. If I go thru your past posts and see no pictures of said pet, immediate block. Pet drama for clicks is horrible. Don’t be that douche

Cabin still stands. Well there wasn’t much doubt with so little snow in the Sierras. Falling trees were the only threat
