Greenhouse, sort of... and so much music
Kat's garden has been most successful since relocating and creating a shade structure for it. We were so successful protecting the garden from sun, we are applying an effort against freeze. We had a few old sliding glass door panels. We used those, along with some plastic sheeting and scrap roofing material. It's not pretty, but it just might work.
I cut a section of fencing, to connect the front path, to the rear path. I fabricated a gate, dug out enough earth to plant it. Filled the footer with concrete and welded the gate into the existing fence. It works quite well.
I have the 1972 BMW 2002 (rare 2002S from Belgium with FPS wheels) mostly put back together. I'm not happy how the silver paint finished (I'm not a professional) but we can sort out a few mechanical upgrades, then send it to a real spray booth. I did take it for a quick spin around the neighborhood.
So much music!
Undercover Orchestra at Blanton Art Studio
Quiet Company played a live show at Southern Heights Brewing Co.
Charlie Hunter at the Townsend (Keita Ogawa on percussion)
Skatalites with Doreen Shaffer at Flamingo Cantina
We had a nice HH dinner at W Hotel Living Room before Willie Neslon taping for Austin City Limits (TV show)
Waller Creek Show
Dinner at a friend's house was a blind tasting of five different Pinot Noir. Four from Oregon and one from CA. We easily picked out the two $50 bottles (the CA $50 bottle was the winner overall). This dispels the myth that there is no difference from a $15 to $50 bottle (at least with this group of Pinots consumers).
We enjoyed duck breast with the Pinot, it was a fun evening.
