I walked to the back of our back 40 today, and it looks like it is drying up pretty good.   I might be able to start some spring plowing soon myself.  Last spring is was too wet and for the first time in well over 100 years, we did not grow any corn on our farm.   That meant that there were no deer here either, after the first shot was fired on opening day of gun season.

I don't know if I am thankful or sad that the factory where I work is considered "essential".  It would be nice to have a little more time for field-work, but at least they asked me to switch to second shift for the next couple weeks, so I will have a few more daylight hours available.  We make critical machinery for power generation and the Navy, and they still need that stuff during the crisis.   With all the bars and cafe's closed last week, the crowding around the microwaves was pretty intense at noon on first shift last week.    

I walked to the far back corner, where the range is, to get a big office chair out of my blind back there.   The only thing I saw out of that last gun season was a monster, red coyote.  I carried my Ruger 10/22, with the clip loaded with yellow jackets, just in case he showed up today at the tail end of the season.  No sign of him, but the wheat back there is looking pretty good, and there are lots of deer tracks in it.   The damn chair must weigh 50 pounds, and it was a pretty good workout carrying it all the way back, strapped to my back.  I don't own an ATV, and it is still a little too muddy to drive a tractor back there.

Sounds like a sensible plan.  Try not to be scared, you are making the right decision by staying home.  Stay healthy and active.

I saw a special on them on Westchester news. Said they lost 80% of restaurant, but gained 60% back in retail to homes?

For those in northern Westchester, a buddy of mine shopped at Uncle Guiseppe’s today and said store was pretty empty crowd-wise and packed with food- meat; seafood, etc

I don’t know if that is true or not but I do know they are a competitor of mine but are a very good company. I used them when I was a working chef

Yea they don’t have a huge selection as they cater to the high end but they are a pretty big company

They want to back tax on it.....

So they mail everyone a check....they want 2000 and then 1000......and when you file taxes and if you made to much; they want it back.

That congresswoman from NYC that was a bartender was on press today touting that plan.

I’m fine with delayed mortgage payments, but I didn’t like the idea of cash being sent out. Too many people out there would use it on drugs and other things that don’t effect the economy anyway
