Jed, Granny, Ellie May & Jethro

The neighbors probably think the Clampett's have moved in....gotta do wash and I don't like dryers...one nice thing about living in the high desert was you could hang things out to dry and even heavy towels would be dry in less than an hour.

Getting Organized

The house came with a 2,000 square foot metal building....commercial grade...power (200 amp), water & septic...really nice. Been trying to get it into useful shape and it's a bit more work than I had expected!
Clean and ready to move in:
Moved in:
Almost a 180 degree panorama 20 feet into the building...at least the floor is mostly clear!
Still have a LOT of work to do to figure out what is in all the boxes...decades of projects saved for when I had the time...I now have the time but do I have the energy?

Swedish Rye

A slightly different rye...don't know why this one seemed to bake to a darker color but the crust is great and the taste is wonderful...really outstanding when hot! I am certain really good bakers can do better but this really works for me and it's maybe ~$1.25/loaf for a 1.5-2.0 pound loaf!
