Diary

Not much going on around the homestead today, so I did chores and got things prepper in case storms from Hurricane Elsa get this...

With 2.2 million fewer people working in the hospitality and restaurant industry, it's no surprise restaurants are turning to automation or asking customers to serve themselves.

Our all-electric house may be getting its first propane-powered appliance. That could be the foot in the door.

Its pretty shocking when things I bought in March and April cost more just two or three months later. Inflation is here, and its far more than 4 or 5 percent.

I visit two stores known for low prices and I found no signs of inflation. But its there at the gas pump.

With spring giving way to summer and summer storms rolling through, we have to plan our work around the weather. There always seems to be more to be done.

Why do we say "Happy Memorial Day?" Shouldn't it be a more somber holiday? This year the weather was cold enough that no one on the East Coast felt like celebrating the start of summer.

Gun sales are soaring. Ammo is in short supply. The Democrats want to ban your guns. The ATF wants to increase regulation. Sounds like its time to buy a gun,

With the weather improving and the sun shining again, we embark on a host of gardening and other outdoor activities

We get a good look at the Southern states, mask compliance, gasoline shortages, the economy, and eat plenty of biscuits.
