Had a Karen at the UPS shop Monday. She just kept going off on how rude the person that was helping her was, when she was the rude and obnoxious one. The guy kept his cool better than I would have.
Paul glad weather not a factor on trip. Does it affect Zoe when class canceled? Hope staple work went well.
Looks ready for installing the fence. The hard work was getting the old fence pulled off and staples pulled and that is all done. The Milwaukee stapler will come in handy. Your son reminds me of the work I did on BWR and PWR nuclear design and installation workGood Morning,
It’s 44 with a high in the upper 70’s forecast under mostly clear skies. Chance of rain this evening.
Yesterday kept me outside all day, I became good friends with the slide hammer nail puller, I removed over 600 feet of wire fence fabric from the posts. I came up with a good way to wrestle the bottom of it free from the vegetation. After all the staples were out and it fell away from the posts flat on the ground, I attached a couple of tie down straps to the far end and pulled it back on itself and away from the posts with the carryall in ~100 foot sections. Continued pulling it all the way to the lane where I folded it back on itself into bundles and stacked them up for the scrap man.

Next step was to take the Lazer and mow between all the posts, I’ll likely take a string trimmer for a walk this morning and go around each post.
But it’s ready for the the new fabric to be installed, stretched and stapled up.

You can see Zoe at a full run coming to play, and the bare fence posts in the background.
Breakfast with the professor this morning, then it’s fence time. Youngest son, the engineer that does design work for nuclear submarines will be a fence installer today. We also will have a celebrity guest from GM.
I’ve got the tools all loaded into the carryall, and the loader on the tractor, so I’ll hit the ground running when I get back from breakfast.
