Looking great, that camera is pretty impressive for no more than it cost. Were did you get the cabinets, that along with installing the two 48” tool chests i bought to build a work bench with are my last items to finish in my shop.

Thanks. I’m super impressed with the camera, ordered another one last night so that I can see the NW corner door as well. Bought them at Lowes, $75 each I think. Money well spent I can tell already!

Looking at your shop, I am getting excited more each day about my shop. I normally have it too full to do anything over the winter, then have the travel trailers (mine and either Dad's or daughter's) out so I have some room in summer.. but other projects seem to keep me out of shop then.. Dad is storing his trailer elsewhere now, daughter likely just needed this one winter storage, they will have their own storage this coming winter we hope. That means I could actually use my shop instead of just having storage. My wife mentioned the other day that I should move storage rack out of garage into shop and kick the other daughter out of garage (let her park her car outside) so I can park my pickup in garage.. Wow, life goes on.. there is hope.

Thanks I’ll check out Lowe’s. I had been looking at the klearvue garage cabinets at Menards they get pricey pretty fast.

Mom officially retired at age 62... she had a very nice retirement party... nicest ever.

She is the only one in the family ever to retire.

The Hospital asked if she would consider coming back for two mornings a month... Mom said sure... to Tuesday and Thursday from 8 to noon...

She enjoyed it immensely not having the responsibility of Charge Nurse and still was able to see her friends... many of whom she hire.

The sad part is she was out walking and was attacked viciously by a Pitt Bull... about a year later which made her retirement permanent... it also left her uninsurable until Medicare Age...

The dog was owned by a Homeless Person with no assets... so no chance of any recovery...

Prior to the attack... she said working a few hours once a week was the best job she ever had... they kept her pay rate at that of charge nurse which was nice too...

Started a food plot behind the shop this afternoon. Used the cultivator that Richard scored for me in the scrap pile last year to work the sod over. It was HARD! I should have plowed it last fall. Made three passes to get it churned up that much. Also, stole Richards disc from him, so I’ll let it settle a couple of days and then get after it with that.

Bought me some seed mix on the inter web, probably won’t grow at all here, but we’ll give it a shot.

I put a 1/2 lb of "butterfly attracting" seed mix in my front yard's flower bed....I'll never do that again. It was all weeds.

I probably should have just bought alfalfa,or clover, but decided I would try something different. Probably won’t matter, we have tons of corn and bean fields all around us so it’s not like they are looking for anything to eat.

People are going to expect me to do something besides play cards and drink beer in the shop if I keep this up!

Nice, they should serve you well. Update us how you like the transmission jack, I’ve been looking at them lately to upgrade from my old single stage that I have abused and needs replaced.
