Good morning!!!!

[Ed of all trades]

Thanks guys, had a good day until I tried to move a tool box with The folding shelf up. Worked well until I bumped into something with the shelf and it fell on my little finger. Nice little tear about 5/8 in long. The doc glued it back together so good as new.
Big fires across the mountain for the last few days, lot of smoke here.

Have a good evening. Ed

Psssst Ed, don't drop the tool box on your finger... Just kidding, hope it's not too sore, the super glue usually heals way better than stitches. My wife is a retired MD, she once used off the shelf Loktite super glue on my hand when I cut myself away from home. She gave me a tetnus shot and some kind of antibiotic when we got home. She made me promise not to tell! LOL

Good evening all. 50F and overcast and windy. .3 in rain in the gauge from over night showers. Made it to 64F and cleared off by 9AM, wind died down this afternoon. Men's mtg, picked up leaves with lawn mower in back and ran the chainsaw until the gas ran out, took down a couple of limbs and got the last round sawed to length. Got some more splitting to do, but will wait until swelling in left ring finger goes down. Finally got the rest of yesterday's ride in with no further issues .

Drew, I buy tires based on puncture resistance and wear, not wet weather performance. Usually braking efficiency decreases with wet conditions, not this time :ashamed: :thumbdown: Good news is only left ring finger is swollen today, should be able to put wedding ring back on tomorrow.

Happy anniversary Ed, hop your finger heals quickly!!

RNG I had no problems on the asphalt, it was my concrete driveway that was that slick, wet enough to loose traction on the concrete, not wet enough to get the brake pads wet, leading to over braking for the conditions.

Only a tractor guy would say 5/8, everyone else would round it to the nearest 1/2 inch.

Middle son and just-proposed-to-this-week fiancé arrived last night for Thanksgiving visit. Of course, they brought their boxer to play with Coco. I roasted some special coffee to celebrate this morning...since I was asleep when they arrived and had champagne with my wife. I fell asleep early after getting up at 2am to drive south for a deer hunt yesterday.

Nowadays it seems that lots of couples never get wed and nothing wrong with that as long as they are happy together, but it is nice to hear of those two wanting to make that commitment. Now their boxer will get to live in a house of married bliss - just like Coco does. Congratulations to the happy couple .

Good morning all. I've had quite a bit of catching up to do, as we had an unexpected internet holiday for a couple of days, thanks to the company that installs land lines. They put a new line in for our neighbor and somehow managed to cut off our phone line at the same time. Not really a problem I thought, it's easy enough to tether to my Android phone until they fix it - except it turned out that my mobile service provider now blocks tethering on the data plan I have.

Fortunately we got re-connected late yesterday afternoon, in time for me to wish that all of you celebrating surviving your ancient, original version of "Brexit" to have a great Thanksgiving day.

Happy Thanksgiving. Little known fact...the first American celebration of Thanksgiving was at Berkeley Plantation near Williamsburg, VA in 1619. Pilgrims were two years later, but have had better marketing for tourism, and better hats.

42 going to 59 and maybe some rain.

Taking it easy today, helping prepare dinner. Will have 2/3 of sons and one's wife and one's fiancée here. Decided not to make the trip to the bigger family get together in Virginia Beach since my wife is still recuperating.

Ed, hope your finger is doing better.

Putter day,but mostly keep out of Mrs. way as she does her cooking magic.

Enjoy the day all.
