Warning on availability of propane camp stoves.
I tried to pick up a hefty propane burner to do my canning, especially my pressure canning outside. It helps keep the heat out of the house during canning season.
Anyhow checked hardware stores, big box stores, Home Depot and no burners or camp stoves. Well, none I felt safe putting a pressure canner on. One department store had an off brand camp stove that ran off small cylinders but not the bigger tanks. So DH ordered me one online.
The long suffering manager at Home Depot showed me a page long print out of manufactures who were no longer delivering products. He's stuck between the CV-19 and China tarriffs.
If you've been putting off purchasing one, you might want to reconsider.
Southern Breeze, I had not even thought there might be hail. I did get the onions pulled. I also found a small snake in the mulch.

Glad your dog got the snake and not the other way around. I lost two good dogs and a hog to rattlers back when I lived in Fl.Yeah, possible tornadoes this afternoon for us if things go according to plan. Hail isn't out of the question.
We have already been over run by snakes this year. Just the other day, our dog killed a copperhead. We've also had chicken snakes, garter snakes, and black racers. Keeps me on my toes!

Thank you. DH ordered one online. I plan to open it today and make sure everythings there.You might try Bayou Classic's website, although they could be closed today as they're down in MS IIRC. We really like their big cast iron propane burners: Bayou Classic Single Propane Burners
Glad I picked up a 2 burner camp stove in Jan planning to can outside this year.Warning on availability of propane camp stoves.

I am in E Texas and already killed 15 snakes since March. Can't keep cats because of coyotes. Once we lost our cats the mice moved in and between the wet weather bring a big from season and mice we are over run with copperheads and moccasins. Local timber clearing and run the rattlers out also.Glad your dog got the snake and not the other way around. I lost two good dogs and a hog to rattlers back when I lived in Fl.
I have the the one burner crawfish boil thing to use outside. But DH is putting my beautiful gas stove on the screened in porch, so if I decide to can I can do it there.
We were supposed to get rain all day but thus far nothing, I think the storm went further east. Although we could use the rain.
Judy
we could really use that rain.I've been concerned for you down there, Judy. Glad everything is ok, but yeah, we're getting your rain right now. Hard soaking rain and very breezy.
Hobby lobby has simplicity patterns on sale for $1.99. Limit of 10. I picked up multiple sizes of pajama patterns ( think simple shirts and pants).
Many many things froze even though we had most things covered. It also froze the next night but by then the damage was done.Got down to 27 degrees this morning. I am reluctant to look at the garden.

I fear the freezing weather is not completely done for the season. Bad place to be a prepper.
Needless to say but we have a very short growing season here. Sometimes it gets down below freezing every month of the year. This year we were having near record high temps for the last month or better. But it only takes one night of freezing temps to ruin everything.Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear that, hiwall. Will you try again later?

Like many places in the west, we have very low humidity, often 10% or less. Because of the low humidity we have large temperature swings every day from the nightly lows to the afternoon highs. Often 40 degree swings in a day and sometimes 50 degree swings.
