First snow of 2019
Pickup is home
My first gardening run. Hattie is digging up the yard looking for moles. My job is to fill in with top soil. No long have to use Barb’s Lexus for this chore.
Update: January 5, 2019 – Plumbers cut up the old acrylic shower-tub in one of our bathrooms to make room for a walk-in shower. Contractor hauled off most of the old shower but didn’t have room for some.
So I tossed it in the bed of Minty Fresh (along with some other junk) and hauled it away. Pre-pickup, that would involve paying someone or borrowing a truck. How did I ever get along without a pickup?

Morning Light
Spotted this on the kitchen floor this morning. The prism effect was created by a beveled glass window. The pattern is the result of the light passing through one of those plastic crates. Didn’t last long.

Yard & Garden playlist
Google continues to improve the tools on YouTube (although I suppose that’s a subjective assessment). I’ve been on something of an organizing binge of late and updated a playlist of videos showing the hard work Barb has put into the yard and garden. 18 videos so you won’t want to watch them all. Click the three tiny lines/arrow in top-left corner to see all videos in the list.
iPhone X Photos
Barb’s only had her iPhone X for a few days and is still getting the hang of new features. Today she played with some of the new photos options. Don’t know how they’ll look here but on my laptop (and her phone) they looked damned good. Not sure which setting were used for each photo but I can tell you I’ve never seen a photo taken with a phone that was this crisp and sharp. The new iPhones are just larger than I like so I’m hoping these new camera features come to some future SE model.
