We are finally getting good rain now and woke yesterday morning to it still pounding down. I managed to time the trip to town for grain just right as I hit a dry spot between rounds of rain in Spokane. It was still raining at the house when I left.

Got down town to find the 5 barrels waiting which I loaded up into the trailer relatively fast. The spot of no rain held long enough for me to be headed for home before it gave up and the rain continued.

Soggy drive back.

I waited for the rains to stop before I went and shoveled the grain out. It was mid morning by then.

Found and printed a massage roller on the 3dprinter. I was hoping to use it as a foot for the Theracane but it isn't wide enough to allow the Theracane to move it around. It does work pretty well as a handheld one though.

Later in the afternoon I was roaming in the garden. The leek flowers/seed heads are gargantuan.

The extent of hte garden not in the greenhouse. I pulled the beets as they had all gone to seed. There is celery, cabbage, kale, chard, and beans left.

The day was taken up with cleaning in the house more. It is a long process but it is slowly becoming less cluttered.

I got another air pump model printed, this time to fit 3" sch 40 pvc. I need to get in touch with Isaac to give them to him.

Today is busy. I take @stryeyz to work soon, then the boys to school, then I have to load saw and tools before going to my session, then I will go cut down trees and load them in the trailer to haul home. It is raining this morning and looks to be stopping about 8 or 9 so hopefully it will be drier for my work. Will pickup J after xc practice then go pickup @stryeyz after work. I will leave the trailer hooked up as I have grain to get tomorrow morning from the other brewery.
