greens under glass

It's been quite warm here lately-60,70,even 80. The grass is growing, greening. The peach trees have nice buds. I planted the one raised bed with spinach, shard, kale and onions about a week ago and it's all coming up. I've put the window sashes on to keep heat in over night- but I open on warm days so things don't over heat.

2 freshly grafted apple trees-waiting in wet newspaper

I did a workshop on tree grafting and managed to graft 2 apple trees while I was there. A honey crisp and a golden grimes. They need to sit in the closet for a week- we'll see f they are successful.

cb450 distributor, points

The cb450 has been getting more attention than getting things together for doing taxes. I have painted and installed the rear grab bars(2) and the left and right front foot rests/kick stand. The points are in and timed I think. The carbs and accelerator cable and air filters are all on now. I just got a replacement brake master cylinder delivered so I can now finish up the front brakes. I also received the new petcock, chain and exhaust seals. When it's warm and dry outside(chilly and rain today) I will work on the tank exterior prep and priming before installing the new shut-off and fuel lines.

CB450: it won't be right till the tank gets painted

Freshly painted parts are hanging about my kitchen.
