Good (Saturday) morning. Overnight Low of 11.9C and it's presently 25.6C, mostly overcast & calm.

Well, I'm back from my quick visit to my Mate in Brisbane and a wonderful "PostModern Jukebox" concert... As a side note; GEES! Concert T-shirts are bloody expensive! 😮

Just in case any of my TBN Mates would like to see these fine musicians, they have recently announced their North America tour dates/locations.

I don't know what I'll get up to today... the house lawn could do with a mow.

That's about it, take care all.

Talented bunch.

Unfortunately, for most bands, merch is the only way they can make money now. Since everything switched to streaming, it only pays about 0.33Ā¢/stream, so they make little money that way. And to make that even worse, Spotify started last year a new policy of not paying royalties on songs with under 1000 streams in a year. That money now instead gets divided and distributed to other artists.

Don't get me started ...

Good evening all. 19ĀŗF for the start overcast, light breeze. Light wind, overcast sky and high temp was 33ĀŗF. Made coffee to start day. cleaned ashes, stocked fire, Mobile dealer service performed recall reprograming, started on taxes, still missing some documents. Worked on map upgrade, found out the map dealer had on shelf was not much newer and wrong format for my truck(factory build records in error). They order new map on correct format(USB thumb drive) and cost $80, much better than price quoted on sd card. Got lunch and groceries while in town, should get new map in a week then self install. Did get nap and ride in, Stepdaughter dropped of beef stew and chili yesterday will I was napping. I had the beef stew tonight was very good.

Drinking first cup of hot coffee. 10° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 29° with mix of sun and clouds. Grocery shopping went good yesterday. Came home and put pintle hitch together and on tractor. Did get not a chance to check it out. It came out like I had visioned with my homemade hitch. But a lot less work. Need to restock my bird feeder supply today. Used up my first tub of feed. That's a little over 200 lbs. Plus over 30 suet cakes. The big seed cakes are about 10.

Everyone stay well and safe.

Good Morning All.

I promised a picture of hitch when I was done. It was a lot easier buying the parts than making it. I was checking height when I took pictures. Those military trailer hooks are at 32ā€.
