Writing and looking at dolphins (there were a bunch of them).
After two days without seeing a motorcycle we had to get out luckily Crystal Cove is twenty miles from home so we made it back in time Saturday to stop by the Farmers Market, look at motorcycles, assemble a shelf in the kitchen, drive a Jeep, and make tacos. We spent most of Sunday cooking, baking, and eating.

Oh, and I talked to Joe the Contractor in Winslow Saturday, he's been keeping warm in South and Central America for awhile but now he's back. It looks like the apartment will be fully functional by mid February if we can ge over there.

Now I have to figure out how to pitch that tent.

This is what the tent looks like assembled.

This place is pretty good. It reminds me of the cafes found in small towns far away from California. The waitress was real nice, the food was good, and lunch was less than $10 including coffee!

Lori got better shot of engine compartment. and the bumpers.

Triumph update, Lori's Goat Farm, and Stalking a Crazy Old Jeep

Lucky Triumph Last week's Triumph troubles are turning out to be a pretty good thing...if you're the Triumph. Lori's been wanting to do something with it for awhile and said, "Since it needs a battery I might as well take the gas tank off and see about paint." So the battery's here, the tank and rear fender are off, she's shopping for a tail light assembly, and pondering some paint options. Here's a few pictures of her tearing it apart after we siphoned the gas out of it. Here's a few more with the color turned on. Agriculture Report The seedlings were transplanted into their new pots Saturday. Lori knocked the bottoms out of the eggshells and planted them with Marigolds to help repel insects. They're taking well to their new homes and look like they've grown in the last twenty four hours! More at  www.townhomesteader.com   Crazy Old Jeep This Jeep caught my eye while fueling up last wee
