Good Morning
27° clear and a high of 39 forecast.

Yesterday I made some progress, got the Costco run completed, bolted the Diacro bender to the shop floor, got the KubVan inspected , did a bit of cleanup and finished the day with an odd fellows meeting.

Today will start with breakfast with the professor, then I hope to get the oil changed in the Carryall, KubVan and the Prius. That seems to be a task that just keeps getting kicked down the road, but today might be the day.

Also have a geothermal service call to do.

The talk of coonskin caps sent me to my closet-

Good Morning!!!! 41F @ 5:45AM. Morning fog, then mostly cloudy this afternoon. High 66F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph.

I've had pretty good luck with Bosch concrete drills in their electric hammer drill, Mike.

Started working through Medicare Open Enrollment yesterday. Previous employer is still providing some benefits, but they're dropping some and changing providers for others. Call to the benefit manager outfit showed them to be as confused as I am. More lost time on the phone for today. What a mess.

good morning, cold and windy in the low twenties this morning

Used the new shovel to sift the coals out from the ashes and empty the ashes out of the stove. Started it up and burning good

The cardiologist DR moved to Hyannis Cape Cod. He was a great doctor and family friend. Sad to see him go. The fill in DR was OK and the results were good. The good cholesterol was in the upper range

D was supposed to start her new job yesterday but got the call to report to jury duty and was selected

Now that I have made progress on the van repairs I am taking it to the next step to also fix the diesel fired heater.
This heater is remote controlled and heats the cooling water in the engine and starts the heater blower

Morning all, 30 going up to 43 and sunny.
Eye Dr. appt went ok, no change which I guess is good.
Dog had her bath and looks like she's all puffed up :)

Got out the big ladder and started putting up the hooks for the front lights. Trying to make this the last year to use the big ladder.

Went by Core Creek Park on way home from Dr. Now looks like a wide walking path instead of a creek it's been so dry.

PopGadget/Paul so flying <100feet from our dwellings is not against the rules? They have an open field behind the house they could use for approach rather than shake my house and the one downhill of me. Well at least they don't come in very early/late, so far.

Will try and get more hooks up today moving the ladder a few feet at a time. Ordered more hooks to finish the job when I get to other side of front door, which is much, much lower.

Be well

28' ladder a bit heavy to get in place, not too bad to move around once up.

67°F and no rain.

Got a few hours mowing yesterday, until I somehow lost a clevis pin. That led to an interesting encounter at Tractor Supply. asked guy on floor where clevis pin was located. Blank look, asked what it was for. Told him, he replied they didn’t carry tractor parts. I reminded him name was Tractor Supply and searched on my own.
Refilled my diesel cans.
Nice quiet Happy Hour.
Sophie drove the Tundra for 1st time. Heavier foot that me but I didn’t comment.
Plan is to resume mowing this morning.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

PopGadget/Paul so flying late, so far.

That is essentially true, but generally the pilots will fly as neighborly as possible. Perhaps a conversation with the neighbor voicing your concerns passed on to the pilots would be a big help. Also keep in mind that they are going to want to approach into the wind. Our prevailing wind is out of the NW.

One other consideration, if diplomacy fails, is that in PA while you can land anywhere with the property owner’s permission, using unlicensed landing sites is limited to “occasional use”.
Feel free to reach out off line if you need any more info or guidance.

Good Afternoon,
Ct, 22 to start going to 37 ! Sorry for late check in, I had the rescheduled urologist appointment this morning ! They said my bladder was mostly empty after the pee test. So I guess that’s good news !

After appointment I went to HD, and bought a deep throated wood clamp for my rocker project! Also bought 4 bags of softener salt, which are still in the back of the my PU ! They need to be moved to the basement!

Sunny today so will try doing some outside yard cleaning! Kathleen’s car needs a quick wash since we went to Vt in her car !

Hope all have a blessed Tuesday!🙏
