The very first house I owned had a basement staircase like that...I had a contractor doing some work down there, and he said be careful those stairs are not well supported...I said "yes they are" and did a little jump...Well, that's how I dislocated my shoulder the 1st time...lol. Painful shit there!!

I own a 100 year old farm house......plumbing and electric were scabbed in later...
Allegedly built in '65....but I've talked with old locals and there may be 20 more years here and the first place was where my chicken coop is and lol was a chicken coop that was converted to a house when the couple got married which was right next to the old pig shed......at least the barn was torn down and rebuilt in '05......I love my shop.

My home was the original farm house for a 180 acre olive orchard near Sacramento. Built around 1910. As Sacramento grew it enveloped the orchard and in 1950 they took out the trees and put in houses. My house stands out and does not look like all the others on the block. Plus it has a full basement, and they just don't build homes out here with basements any more.

Rudy and my daughters boyfriend were taking dabs
Under the carport. They heard the little bastard. It was like three feet away from their feet lmao. Feisty little one. You could actually hear this one so I wasn’t pissed like i get about the 1yr olds. Cut its head off cleanly. I’ve gotten really good at it.
Youngster there. Surprised you don't have any roadrunner there. Glad you and yours are ok.

There are a few around, my wife saw one up above Paradise once. There are a lot more in So Cal. I was riding with a friend in Ventura county in his Baja Bug (yeah we were stoned) and he decided he was going to try to run one over for whatever reason. Never got close.
I got a mating pair right now, they love the mesquite trees and hiding in them. One started being a tad sociable lately since I hang in the garden most days now. Guess it's getting used to me being around.

Baja bugs are fun....love driving them in the mudd

Went round the back of the house to examine the damage from the storm last night .... about 8 tiles slipped (middle house).
Builder wants $10 to put them back in place plus the cost of any damaged tiles that needs replacing.
House on the end is in worse shape!IMG_20200519_105623.jpg

There were a few buffalo in the field, they didn't seem to be bothered by me walking past.

I haven’t! Shame the library is deemed nonessential, leaving me to binge serial crap on Netflix.
Our libraries will be opening for curbside pickup "in the coming weeks" You can't place any books on hold yet.
