Good Morning
34° this morning when I woke up, 64 and climbing now. Bright sunny day with a bit of a breeze.

Yesterday, about all I got done was to clean up after the mess I made doing the electrical work. Had a nice trip to the Vineyard, got back in time to have some birthday cake and participate in a nerf gun fight with sons and grandson. Tomorrow I have to leave the house before 5 to get to Palm Beach for a 9:30am departure. The good news is that I’ll be finished work early.

Not a lot planned for today, I 3D printed an adapter to put a dial indicator on the tool post on my lathe, that needs to have some adjustment hardware fitted, which will involve a trip to the hardware store.
Probably meet some locals for lunch and play music tonight.
Not much else planned.

68°F and 0 rain but 82% chance today

Getting water transfer going yesterday my important accomplishment other than the guys being victorious at cards.

Need to make PO run this morning. Hopefully get the BX back to running order if it doesn’t rain.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

63°F and cloudy this morning, got up to 79° today. Rather windy the last couple of days.

1st shift just ended, and my 2nd shift has been working at another facility for the last month. So, it's quiet here at work, as I have the place to myself for the next hour. Get some reports done without interruptions.

Going to rain here pretty much all weekend and through Monday, starting later this evening. So much for getting the rest of the mowing done.

Nice to see David (MFW) make an appearance here. Glad things are going well.

Good afternoon, gents.

Bill, since you are on a roll,
let's upgrade your rig.
haul that black gold in style and always go to the head of the line, slowly subdubbing your buddies
as you go buy.

wonder if you could program those eyes as turn signals
can anyone identify the country?

lovely day out, sat outside and nodded off for a few minutes. Finished planting last of radishes
can really tell the tree pollen is cranking up, have to wash my face when I come in to get pollen out of eyes and eyelashes.

lot more clearance now with air dam taken off car.
first of the bleeding hearts starting to open. In about a month that will be two feet of flowers

Paul/PJS, I just got a call, it's ok to go home now. The Easter Bunny was calling.

Breakfast meeting today, always good..
Decided to clean up the garden when I got home, still had everything in it from last year. Pulled the plastic, removed bean and tomato trellis. Then tilled the garden. Other than having to jump start the massey, and put a little air in the tires, it ran good. about the only time it gets used.
Then planted 4 rows of potatos, using just one of the buckets of left overs. will dump the other 2.5 buckets of small potatoes. got bean trellis back up, so they can get planted.

I'm tired.
No deck work today, but yesterday, after I got back from VA, I did straighten out the 1/4' out. I ran string line down every row to check. The very first piece was the culprit, even though I had a chalk line down when i put it in, when I put the back side screws in, it must have pushed out some on the front. anyways, took a couple hours, but I'm happy I straightened it. Next 3 boards are around middle side posts, so will have to cut them as I go, so will take longer, and I need to put in some more blocking in the middle.

Anyone know about kites?
I know...I'm 73 going on 13...
I found this box kite I bought many years ago from a kite store, but I think it's made wrong?
Easy fix...but the cross dowels are 24" & 28" so it's lopsided (?). Also the attachment string the loop is off center (maybe supposed to be?). It's windy today but not consistent. I finally got it flying about 100ft or so, then it "nose dived", but didn't hurt it.
