Morning folks!

Still raining 12 hours after it started last night. New ponds everywhere lol. Golf course closed. We have been pumping water to holding ponds to try and conserve as much as possible. Some fairways are kayak-able. We needed the rain but it is no good for golf lol.

Basement has about 4" of water. Which isn't two weird for my house considering it's age (1870-80) Everything important sits on 6" blocks. Pump working. Wtf. Found it's coming directly through cobblestone wall. Just have to let it run for now. If I plug that hole the pressure will collapse that wall I figure. Branch tore gutter off so that's why the build up. Fixed that, now will repair wall once it dries up.

Taking a break soon to bake some chicken wings for breakfast. I've been up all night dealing with this after a 15 hour work day, it's time for some damn grub.

2 dozen wings, sweet corn, and fries .. breakfast of champions!

Chicken wings on deck here as well. Will enjoy during the Michigan game starting at noon.
Also got some soft pretzels and pimento cheese and I believe some potato skins will be had as well.
First jug of fresh apple cider was procured yesterday as well to wash it all down.
Have a good time. About to put in a 10 hour shift cooking at the dive bar today. I would be lying if I said I had not considered putting super glue on the rim of anyone's drink that yells at people chasing balls on the television.

From all the posts I’ve made and posts I’ve read it seems that 70-75 days is the sweet spot for most indoor strains to be harvested
Unless you have an accountant in your ear and then the sweet spot is 56-63 lol.
But yeah, for full effect I like to go the extra week or two. Only reason I can see for taking them earlier is for maximum flavor.

Pups Confirmed in Five California Wolf Packs
Number of Wolves in Golden State Rises to 65
SAN FRANCISCO— Five of California’s seven known wolf families have produced pups this year, according to a quarterly report published today by the California Department of Fish and Game. These 30 new pups bring the total number of known wolves in California to 65.
“Seeing wolves return to the places this magnificent species once called home and have these adorable new pups is as inspiring as it gets,” said Amaroq Weiss, senior wolf advocate at the Center for Biological Diversity. “At least five California packs have now created families. That’s a testament to the visionary power and strong enforcement of the federal and state endangered species acts.”
The agency’s report said the Lassen pack’s litter consists of five pups, the Whaleback pack produced six pups, the Beyem Seyo pack had five pups, and the Harvey pack produced seven pups. The state’s southernmost pack, the Yowlumni pack, produced seven pups. The packs for which no pups were confirmed to have been born this spring are the Antelope pack and the Beckwourth pack.
All five wolf families that reproduced this year are composed of two adult breeding animals, several yearlings from last year’s litters and the new pups born this spring.
There are a total of 11 wolves in the Lassen pack, 13 for Whaleback, 10 for Beyem Seyo, 10 for Harvey, two for Antelope and 15 for Yowlumni. While the Beckwourth pack was not seen this quarter, last quarter the pack consisted of two wolves. These seven distinct wolf families inhabit portions of six counties, including Siskiyou, Lassen, Plumas, Sierra, Nevada and Tulare counties.
In addition, small groups of wolves or lone wolves — a total of four wolves during this quarter — were sighted in Tehama and Plumas counties. Surveys are continuing for wolves seen in the recent past in Modoc County.
Wolves are fully protected in California under the federal Endangered Species Act and under California’s own endangered species act.
The reestablishment of wolves in California after a nearly 100-year absence began when wolf OR-7, a radio-collared wolf born in northeast Oregon, made his way across that state in late 2011 and entered California. His daughter is a founding member of the Yowlumni pack in Tulare County.
“I’m overjoyed that California now has an estimated 65 wolves in the state,” said Weiss. “It’s a great start, but we’ve got more work to do. California wolves need to keep their strong state and federal protections if they’re going to fully recover and thrive here.”
