I don't know about vinegar and rust, pipes rust more if in an acid environment. If I have to neutralize a cleaner after use, I'd rather use a different cleaner.

Spent some hours organizing the rocks and minerals. The new ones I have been washing, splitting, and examining, and ones which have been sitting out instead of stowed away. Also re-mounted a dozen micros which had come loose from their moorings, and put the micromount drawers back in order. Unfortunately one cleaned up mess seems to lead to a new one; rediscovered more things that need to be split and looked at.

Meanwhile the goatheads have established quite a beachhead in the 'back 40', enmeshed with other viny plants and an anthill, while I concentrated on higher traffic areas. So, time spent on that, and nervous that as it gets drier and drier, the goatheads are more prone to pop off the plant when it gets yanked up.

And yes it's all way behind. But I went to some online sings regardless of the chore backlog, and worked on some mending projects that got put off too long.
