I took the time for a little fishing today now that I don't have much to do. Drove through some back country that I rocked with my dump trucks some 15 years ago for a large timber company and made it to the back side of a local river that few others know how to get to. Caught 2 Coho salmon and half of one is in the wood cookstove baking right now. I build 2 cold frames that I planted some lettuce and spinach in a few months ago and placed on the front porch where it has lots of Southern exposure and was able to harvest enough this afternoon for dinner along with some cherry tomatoes and peppers we've grown in big pots so we could move them up here. Baked salmon on a bed of rice, a small salad to finish it. I've also broke the ground up where we plan to put our garden in the spring. The chickens will hopefully produce enough poop to help with fertilizing it as the ground been covered in timber for a few milliniums.
