Good morning!!!!

David, congrats on selling it and contributing positively into the CL ethics universe. I'll miss the Sequoia, too, but at least there is still the Tundra.

Happy Birthday Drew!

Good Morning!!!! 45F @ 6:15AM. Light rain this morning with thunderstorms by evening. High near 50F. Winds SSE at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 80%.

Inch and a quarter of rain in the last 24 hours, with more due in over the next ten days. No big stormes, just showers and drizzles, good for soaking in instead of running off. The deer are gonna start having trouble keeping the grass short.:laughing:

Very nice snow pictures, thanks for sharing. The snow blowers are sure getting a workout back east!

Speaking of deer, when I ran up the driveway yesterday to get the mail, a half dozen of them were laying down in the upper pasture, just like they owned the place. The surprising part is that everything was soaked, including the deer, and they didn't seem to mind at all.:confused2:

Much easier to price something at or below where people are willing to buy it than price it too high and have it sit with no interest. Well played, David.

And I've had people show up to buy something and offer less than what was agreed upon. Usually they go home empty handed. And it's happened the other way 'round, and I've wasted a trip. Don't know why people act like that, just because they can, I guess.:confused3:

Hope you've found some good trouble there, Randy.

Happy Birthday, Drew!

The parts box for the old motorcycle had four throttle cables in it, but none of them were any good. And it turns out that a shim or two is needed for just the right wheel bearing adjustments, so two more orders went out yesterday for those parts. Hopefully they are the last two. No sign of spark at the plugs yesterday, but there's an outside chance something isn't wired correctly, so that's what I'll look into this morning.

Finally got word last night on dimensions for the mechanic's part, so I'll get that done and run it into town for him today. Probably pick up some groceries while I'm in there.

Happy Hump Day, folks!

snow line has gotten very close to me, just about ten miles away. But headed North and stopping by lunch.
Then I go get two 50 pound bags of potatoes out of the barn and spend the afternoon in the garage cutting them up.
Figured out how to get my Oontz speaker re-paired to my laptop, so I can take that out to the garage and hear tunes.

My sister was using Amazon's Echo at her house, yelling at the speaker to play this song, or that song. It worked most of the time too, but the speaker they give you is not as good as the Oontz.

Which model Oontz Speaker do you have Drew? I’ve looked at them to replace the iHome speaker I have had for about ten years. It doesn’t have Bluetooth. In fact, the dock on it is the old style wide iPhone / iPad connector.

The prices on Amazon, for Oontz, run from about $10 to $150.

wow RNG thanks. You too Billie and the gang in general.
is that going to set off any nervous systems again? Remember the last time the flashing couldn't be killed? It kept reappearing...spooky.

ok, warmed up enough to get going.

I bought a cheap one and it sounds great, might try one of their better ones next.
Cambridge Soundworks is very respected speaker builder. I use this with my laptop.

FYI for others-- those RotoZip bits will work in Dremel-like highspeed rotary tools. I have some of them that I use occasionally for free hand cutting in plastic electrical boxes.

Another "cool tool" is an oscillating tool. Perhaps more useful than a Rotozip. You can plunge cut in to materials with the blades, and also the blades are useful for making a lot of cuts in tight places.

Thanks
Used my dremel once, the vibrating cutter a few times. Dont have a rotozip.
