A day or two later I talked to the owner and got permission to saw up that log for things that I make. Yesterday I finished up a natural edge bowl made from that very chunk of wood.
I like the way that one turned out, but that's not what I am here to talk about -- today's subject is driving. I just changed the oil in the vehicle I drive most often - after just under a year I had put 2,983 miles on it. I haven't checked, but I think I only put a couple of hundred miles on my pickup, which means that even with a trip down to the coast last year I was hard pressed to drive even 3,000 miles in 2017. I have no idea what all that means, other than I tend to be a homebody.
Oh yeah, one more thing - we had snow on Sunday, it barely got above 40 degrees here today, but the forecast is for temperatures in the low 80s by Thursday - what's a body to do?
