We had a diesel generator to work on yesterday, and it's pretty rare that there's something about an IC engine we're surprised by. But I have to say, a fuel filter clogged with flies was definitely a first. Luckily it was a pretty simple fix.
Afterwards we started making more permanent repairs to the Cafe Colando.
Replacing the windows is a great opportunity to get rid of her eyesore front-end. Not to mention that the new glazing will be much more energy efficient.
We moved the cactus garden to where the lettuce garden used to be. They're not as tasty as the prevous residents, but more hail-tolerant (they were getting too much sun on the east side, anyway).
Folks say some cacti are like "dry whiskey," in that you'll be feeling tipsy if you eat one, but we'd rather stick with traditional whiskey.
This Mothera of a lepidopteran dropped by the Cafe at lunchtime yesterday. Pretty friendly guy/gal; he/she loved being handled.
You could grow some blue agave. I hear it makes the best tequila ;D.

ReplyDeleteThere is a song 'Cafe Colando' that is a family favorite.
