in homesteading •  7 years ago 

Good day my steemit and homesteader friends! Its going to be a sunny day today, that is a good news for us homesteaders, we can do gardening and planting while the sun is smiling down upon us.

Yesterday, at exactly 3pm, Me, Arnold, Lito and Glen (all drivers) head to tissue warehouse, where we will pick up/load assorted tissue products which will be deliver next week to one of their distributor at Vigan city.

We arrive at their warehouse at 3:15pm.

We started loading big boxes of tissues. They use a porklift to load a palette of tissues inside our truck.

Its like a building blocks, we have to arranged the boxes to fit in inside the truck(without gap between boxes).

Its getting bigger now, but the weight is not that heavy as it looks.

There are also small boxes, like wet tissues, thats the heavy one.

I have checked their destination at this app on my phone, its "google map", it is really accurate in telling right ways.

From here to Vigan, its a 230km long ride, it takes 4 to 5hours (depends on the vehicle speed and road/traffic situation). They will departed at 1am, and arrival time is 5am. From there, they will unload all this assorted tissues, then take an hour to rest, and off to road again to go back home.

Dj is really curious about what we are doing, he does not want to play with his toys, he just want to look at the plants.

@mama-imee took her turn in planting, she does not just want to look, besides she have a good hand in handling plants.

Its quite finished, we still have to plant some more vegetables like eggplants and lady fingers (okra). This vegetable bed is really nice beside our house, a good sight every morning while taking a hot coffee.

I hope you like our little improvements on our little garden here. We really appreciated to have such wonderful people around the world watching what we have been doing here for the mother nature, and as well good for us, these vegetables will surely give benefits to us in the future.

Thank you very much steemit and homesteader friends!
