The strawberries made it!

Whew, the strawberries made it! Charles went to check on them in the wee hours of the night, and it was getting pretty cold in there, so he put some plastic over the row cover to help hold the heat in. That did the trick, thank goodness! Everything was hunkie dorie this morning when he went over to look at them.

Everything, that is, except the Chevy truck. It died on Charles on the way down to the tunnels. (So he had to walk in 24 degree temps in mucky snow - the wind was vicious!) After checking the strawberries, Charles was able to get it started and up to the garage, but it died three times on the way! Cheryl & Anna brought the Dodge to rescue him. One new fuel filter later, and the Chevy is good as new! Thank goodness Charles is handy with this sort of thing.

Such is life on a farm. Things break, things happen, and you just have to adapt and get on with life.
