Stop in for a cup of coffee

Got a load of stuff from the body shop,including what is called a stud gun, not something i really need, but could certainly help sometimes. Also an 8” disc and paper for dual action sander. Odds and ends of old trim parts. 50 or more lbs of sandpaper.

I got word I have a stomach infection. It is treatable with antibiotics. Fairly common they said.

Doesn't sound good but hope it goes away soon.

On antibiotics for 6-8 weeks I think she said. Probably no drinking during the cure.

I would think the alcohol would help but I don't know.

Nope, it weakens the strength of the antibiotics and causes bad side effects.

OK then I guess I'll have to drink your share for a few days.

Was hoping to see some of the planets lining up. Happening now supposedly. But the best approximation of where to look is an area I'm not able to see well from the house. It's apparently low above the southeast horizon. Ground is pretty high plus trees in that direction. Will look again in a few. but not expecting much.

So The March Meet is fast approaching, next weekend. Weather guesses are unstable throughout the week . Been chased out of their for bad weather before and it wasn't even on account of rain . Famoso is in a very rural part of Kern County. Surrounded by orchards and farm grounds, no neighbors to piss off . Does have it's drawbacks though. Next door neighbor has a landing strip for his crop dusting service. They also have a plant for processing agricultural mulch. The winds really came up one Saturday we were there, blowing from the mulch plant. This lovely red dust got airborne and the traction on the track disappeared as did the visibility to the shutdown area and they shut down the racing . Could have been worse. Halfway home we drove through a 30 mile long cloudburst .
