Shopping Trip

It was a little chilly this morning, but it has warmed up to a beautiful day.  Unfortunately we weren't able to utilize today for building, since we had an appointment in the Big Town to get the windshield in our truck replaced.  Going that far north is a long trip, so we try to make it a really effective day for shopping.  Since the vast majority of stores are so far away, we must plan out exactly what we will buy, where, and when, well before leaving the Ranch.  Even things that are available in Study Butte are usually much cheaper in the Big Town, and it will be our only trip north for a week, so we are trying to make it a highly successful trip! For the most part we have all the major things we need to continue building, but there are always odds and ends that we need, and food is always appreciated. We picked up a 100 gallon stock tank to turn into a transfer tank by building a sealed lid, which should work well as an inexpensive alternative for a pickup truck transfer tank.
