In which the battery bank at the barn finally died... Actually only two cells out of 24 are totally kaput but that's enough...
I picked up $1250 worth of new batteries today. What a blow. Straight out of my pocket. So much for our new thing~! And Chris Cookman is gonna charge us a slug to recalibrate the inverter... mele kelike make!
the library wouldn't lend me any books on small engine repair becuase I owed them too much and the generator has been backfiring like a civil war veteran...
jeez.
still no rain, although it has gone cloudy on us. worse luck...
At least it has given me a slight chance to get the swales tilled over before they get soaked and unworkable.
We ordered $200 worth of cover crop seed, lana woolypod vetch and red cowpea, as an interim cover while the peanut gets established.
I should go before the power dies!
