maybe we get the washer fixed today and i can get out later for some more work on the pathway/quackgrass removal project. sunny this morning, but cool enough to frost last night.

frosted this morning, cool day of up to 58F, a bit of a breeze but nothing like yesterday which clocked in some gusts over 50mph. they even had a blowing dust warning in the weather forecast.
