Good morning!!!!

[daugen]

Thanks Ted for the kind words. Nice visit to Food Pantry this morning, was warmly greeted by volunteers, very impressive operation, though full of paperwork, each month clients have to bring proof of income and proof of expenses to qualify, seems a bit onerous...but apparently some big donators like the supermarkets don't want their food getting gamed, since they donate a lot of nice stuff and not just end of the line. And boy were the supermarket veggies sad looking, no wonder they are excited about what I was bringing in.

Came home, changed, hoed the rows where the pak choy was, and planted a pound of white onions I picked up at Ace Hardware. $1.99 for this pound bag of onions, must have been a hundred little guys in there. So about 200 Texas sweets, maybe some cippolini if they actually keep growing, and now some white sweet onions. I also found a tiny bit left of red creole onion seeds, maybe the second time around they will grow. Everything was pretty wet, so I bagged it until tomorrow. Tomorrow I re-till the corn rows again and plant the rest of the corn.

Have bills to pay, taxes to send in, then maybe a nap. I was going to wash the truck and car and got lazy.

Wow. A diesel motorcycle!

That’s my thought. Lol

Farmer, hope those tubes stay put and do the job.

There won稚 be any TV antennae, diamond in the back, dingle balls, 13 wheels, blackout windows, 28 rimz, etc...

I am relieved to read that. I see some pretty tasteless pimp jobs down in the CT River Valley cities. I/We try to avoid those areas; especially now that there will be a casino down in Springfield. There will be all kinds of pimped out cars down there then . My wife worked down there for 30 years; a long daily commute.

Farmer- I hope these tubes stay put this time.

It snowed here all day and finally accumulated to ~.5".

A pretty boring day here. I should find my old pedometer and track my "mileage" with all the walks of the hike/walk-able perimeter with the dog. The exercise is not hurting me......

Screens up. Birds not happy. Had to do it after all these years.
My dump is free. No license check or anything. Takes everything except hazardous materials and appliances. Landfill takes those. I usually try and sort the garbage before I make a dump run. They take unsorted too. Good hours. Never really busy.
Hope all are doing well. Tomorrow will be a great day. Enjoy the sunset.

That’s my thought. Lol.

Sound like an old hit and miss engine that ain't missing to me. Sweet bike RNG. Ed

Good evening all. 44F this morning, clear sky, light wind. Wind stayed light today, sky stayed clear, and high temp was 71F. Started getting ready to rebuild two parts to the boat interior, making detail sketches, and after wife's nap we took boat over for leak testing. Good news and bad news, the good news is the work already done did not leak, bad news, the splash well support leaks like a sieve :shocked::thumbdown: . Back to the dealer! I am hopeful they can repair w/o motor removal. Wife wants to hire carpenter to do interior repair, we talk to him tomorrow. Now back to replacing golf cart.

Wow. Took awhile to catch up with everybody. I have been busy working on a rental, got the tenant moved in last week, seems like a good deal, a older couple, more stable.
We don’t really have recycling program here, Walmart takes some stuff, and my wife saves some for a friend that recycles at her business. The paid pickup cost about $17 per month, only one can allowed. The township has a recycling day once a year for paint, tires and furniture. I have a neighbor that is very friendly with everybody. I helped him get a large couch to the road, I told him they would never take it. He just smiled. The garbage guys rolled up, took the couch, made the truck eat it, waved and went on their way. It turns out, he is on a first name basis with guy,and gives him a nice Christmas present every year....��

RNG, thanks for the video, sounds tractor like till you bipped the throttle.

Farmer good luck with new tubes!

Ted continued healing on the knee.

Prayers for all.

Took advantage of a break in the rain, loaded up my truck, mostly cardboard and took it to the transfer station. Only a light sprinkle while unloading.
