I enjoy it. I am currently on an organic farm near Salinas (home of John
Stienbeck) helping out fixing things. Over the last week I worked on a
1948 tractor for a friend in Los Angles then yesterday worked on a late 80s
tractor here. This summer I will be sweating away in Missouri Ozark
humidity building and fixing things, drinking beer, eating pizza, and
enjoying many hours of conversation. My hope is to be in North Carolina in
the fall, I have a shed to finish and I believe someone's husband invited
me to take a short river trip.
