Are bears counted in that Death Test? I'm sure Drew is up tree by now.
reports of my consumption are greatly exaggerated....
however...the game cam did come in and I just spent some time setting it up, and will install it later this morning.
Set it on lowest 2mp setting, remember when that was high rez?...
lost my pocket camera again, bummed, set it down somewhere, likely it will turn up, but was looking for it to post a pic of a bunny nest in my orchard. White fuzzy stuff all over, and when I dug under, a high pitched squeal and and three inch long baby bunny crawled out, not liking the sun one little bit. And underneath it looked like two more wedged into a hole in the ground.
I simply cannot kill the things, but then all they will do is head straight for my vegetable garden. Not like they can hurt anything in the orchard and there are plenty of holes big enough for them to get out of there, particularly at the gates.
I tried giving the bunnies away to the electrician yesterday, he laughed and said his daughters would love them but he'd have to take care of them and no thanks.
depressing visit to the arthritis doc, CT said severe degenerative disc disease. Well at least it agrees with the last MRI...
And despite having worked my way down to my lowest weight in 30 years (though at 210 I am still overweight) he said I needed more exercise, traditional exercise, and less "work". I guess I'm back on the treadmill soon. Not like I don't walk enough here...
He was also somewhat surprised I could do what I do, but suggested that maybe I get a little more help with the heavy lifting. Already doing that, perhaps not enough. And he upped my nerve pain meds and told me to be careful operating machinery. Lovely. Yeah, I'm careful with where I put the bucket...
nothing new, life goes on, parts are worn but apparently serviceable...
and speaking of worn parts, I'm surprised that Kubota and others don't have kits made to rehab those FEL bushings, like oversize rings in an engine. Not using bushings originally also surprises me.
Electricians got my compressor wired up yesterday, yeah, and it fired up just fine. Challenging trying to get all the right fittings, coming out of the tank with a one inch line, dropping down to 1/2 and then the coupler. A few adapters but it all worked, going into a Dewalt air distribution box. One line will go to a coxreel type setup, reel with 50 feet of 3/8 hose to be bolted onto the wall outside of the compressor room. The door to the woodshop is only ten feet away so I can drag the air line right into the shop and use it that way, though normally it will be using impact wrenches outside on machinery.
I was pleased with how quiet the Quincy 3.5hp compressor was, ran it for an hour with the tank valve open, as instructed, to set the rings, and then it pumped right up.
pics coming, got my "old" full size camera out. Never lost that one yet...
