Good morning!!!!

[Buppies]

46 this morning high of 76 later today. Texas is getting all the rain starting to worry the East may be in for a long dry spell.

Nice truck Drew, very nice indeed

Eric, too funny, "real men" don't drive ewes, right?

cooler morning, only going to 73 today, should be very pretty out.
However I am staying inside, baking some corn raisin biscuits for dinner, old friends staying for the night on the way to visit family in florida. No outside duties today; seems all I do is run wash (with or without cameras in my jeans...) I get so dirty outside every day. Sure did take that for granted, finding those nicely folded clean jeans ready for me each day and a wife who could not understand how one person could dirty so many clothes. Well, it's easy!

Carpenters doing great work in the woodshop, they should be done today and then I can finish the rest. Need to call the electrician back so I can get some light in there to see. I just love the smell of sawdust.

Need to pour second cup of coffee. 32° with mostly clear skies this morning. Heading to 67° with partly cloudy skies. Bought a new laptop yesterday. HP sure put a lot junk on it to try and collect more money. Most of it is gone. But some keep popping up. Heading to Port Huron to visit family today.
Drew, nice truck. Except for scenery pictures, my pictures these days are taken with a iPhone. Hope I never wash it. Glad yours is working.
Good Morning All.

Been a while ...

38F and mostly sunny ... been burning a fire in the WBF for the last couple of days as it's been a bit on the chilly side. Hopefully be able to get rid of most of the remaining wood here at the house over the next few nights so I don't have to move it for the summer.

This year is the first year in quite a while that we've managed to get the lawn cleaned up and the mowing under control early in the year.

The spell of nice weather we've had over the last couple of weeks has kept us pretty busy with outdoor projects ... there's sure no shortage of them.

Hope everyone has an enjoyable and productive day.

Good morning, 39F heading to 64F. Finally got the sealer on the grouting on the backsplash in the kitchen last night. Kept forgetting to do it, only remembered when I am too tired to give a care. Must come with age.

47 heading to a sunny 71. Couldn't ask for a nicer day.

Got 4 food plots tilled yesterday but ran out of time for planting and fertilizing...will do that today. Dave, I use a Cosmo spreader. I've been very pleased with it for 10 years...always wash it out after use and keep it covered with a tarp. I'm getting ready to go attach it now.

Eric, glad you're lamb is sobering up.

Drew, smart move on switching trucks since it sounds like no long distance camping trailer is planned.

52 this morning and nice out. A family on the other side of town had a big black bear come in and kill an adult sheep. The got a picture of him and posted it on Face book.

LOL ... like a sore throat ?

Actually, I've missed following this thread ... just have too much going on ... and a lack of energy ...

while pictures of a fascinating rebuild of a Kubota loader educate us, another very talented member ...

Yeah ... I saw that pic/read the post ... that rebuild sure looks interesting ... mainly because my loader has excessive slop in the pin bushings ...

none will compare to the structural arms of the Eiffel Tower.

LOL ... right ...

outdoor pics?

Nope ... haven't been taking any lately, other than a few with the iPhone of the pilated woodpeckers that seem to visit on a daily basis ... and those seem to turn out pretty crappy.

Need to grab a fresh battery for the PowerShot ...

Yes both of mine are Cosmo brand. WOW good eyes. :laughing: Don't mention all the garbage on the property, okay? :thumbsup: I used the older one to spread lime (pelletized) and seed last year, and although I bought it used, it rusted up from not washing it out good. So now that I rebuilt it I use that one for fertilizer and such, and the new one for seed only. As far as adjusting them, I just set the shutters open enough to let the product out, and the RPMs (PTO) speed to fling it the right distance. Don't really know if that is the correct way, but so far it has worked on the back pasture.

Thanks. Cosmo seems to be a reasonable unit and the price is okay. Good tip on the washing out.

wngsprd: Thanks for your input too on Cosmo.
