Default I'm all set for the lockdown

Went "up to the country" to get another 40 lbs of buffalo, pork and beef for the garage freezer.

Also found a new scotch from Highland Park. We'll see if it's any good.

Good deal between the groceries and the spirits

Did you pick up some extra propane tanks for the grill? ( or was that plumbed into the main gas line? )

Plumbed it into the house LP lines after changing the jets. Found a guy online that sells conversion kits and he knew, by memory, what kit my Weber Summit required. "Most impressive"

Irish Vodka? What a fascinating concept... How does it taste?

And what makes you think there is going to be a lockdown?

Not sure on the vodka, will find out pretty soon. It had good store reviews and was on sale.

Lockdown was just a play on the panic sheep running around. I'm stoked to get caught up on some house maintenance items and a few wood projects I have in queue.

headed down to the shop after lunch to clean up my mess.

well, we won't run out of water for a bit. pretty sure all rain water tanks are full now. i know the two 2500 gallon tanks at the shop are full, pretty sure the 3000 gallon tank at the guesthouse is full too.
