IMG_2972.jpegIMG_2974.jpegI've been chasing this Orb Weaver spider around my patio for the last three weeks. I didn't wanna kill it. I'd knock the big af web down every morning hoping it would just get the hint and move out into a tree or a plant. But nooooo!

Sucker was about as big as a half dollar before he took a dip in my pool.

Trailer coming together. Figured I'd call it quits for today, tomorrow I start putting in the floor boards which will go fast, then need to decide what to do for the sides. I will need to buy more lumber, I didn't account for the cross members for the floor boards to screw into when I bought, and those come up to just slightly over 4' so it made lot of waste.

Putting that frame together was a pain in the ass though, never going to do that again, if ever I want another trailer I'll just pay more and get a fully completed one. About 1k for the frame and I already put a good $500 into it already. I put bigger wheels too, the ones it came with were smaller.

Have not seen my off grid neighbor or any of their animals since last fall, decided to text just out of curiosity to see if they were still living there or not as I found it odd how they were rather established then suddenly were gone. Turns out their 6 year old died from a falling tree while they were working there. They went back down south temporarily to spend time with their family and get support while they deal with that. Pretty tragic situation.

Made another batch of salsa verde. Figured I'd make enchiladas or tacos with some chicken I have left. I have enough salsa left from the last batch if I make tacos, but then I'd not have any for chips. I'm leaning towards enchiladas anyways. I'm going to be forever washing dishes.
