About an acre cleared. Now excavator can finish that spot. Still have an acre or so of trees to do the same to. About same number.

graph sample of speed mm/sec (100-400) and power (10-80%). There is also a third option - resolution made by how many lines per mm the laser makes.

I learned a lot but I don't know if I'll enjoy it enough to become proficient. It is mostly computer work and mine would start on a Mac convert to a pc then convert to the laser on board computer. After you master the program and learn the ways to save the different file some which can be edited some cannot some compatible some not and then the 25 steps before you hit the start button . . . . Just give me a chainsaw and a a log.

A different skillset from what most of us see as woodworking I guess. Precision of another sort.

The BEF Extraction Mission ..... will be the Mother of all TBN Extraction Missions.

Cali Guard Chinook will drop RNG's Fire Truck 5 miles away from the Rehab Center in time to fill the water tanks.

Texas Guard Chinook will orbit the extraction zone,at 30,000 ft, one hour prior to extraction.

Maryland Guard KC135 tanker to orbit 75 miles west of extraction site for aerial re-fuel ops, as needed.

Sling lift quick-hooks have been installed on the Subaru.

Mission ops communications will stage near RNG Fire Truck until 15 minutes before extraction, then to site 5 minutes before extraction.

And somehow a paperwork snafu will probably throw it all off.....

85 today. Rain off and on most of day. 73 currently. About the same tomorrow.

Spent the day holding onto a chainsaw. I’m feelin’ it. Stumped and topped about 35 trees. Most ended up being cut into logs. Still have 10 or so to process. Dad helped for a couple hours. Then dragged the pump back out of lake. Blowed the flex hose which was my prediction as it would only build 40psi. Cut it off but don’t have the clamps to repair it. Will get them tomorrow when I take oldest to therapy.

Youngest visit to specialist went ok. They changed some medication and made things more portable. Before we had to always pack a nebulizer. Now we have inhalers. But because of his age we have to spray them into a masked tube and count how many times he moves a one way valve. They did some blood work checking his immunity levels. Scheduled a sweat test for next visit. That’s the test they check for CF with. Doctor just covering bases. Doesn’t think he’ll be positive. If medication doesn’t work then they will scope him and examine airways and take mucus samples.

Found out yesterday that we lost a neighbor Tuesday. 72 I’m told he had a heart attach while mowing his yard. Daughter found him I think. She lives on lot beside them. I always enjoyed stopping by to talk to him. His wife used to work at the McDonald’s Playplace. She was always good to the boys.

Glad buckeye is getting out tomorrow. Are you going to have home restrictions or will you finally be free?

Everyone else get better.

Farmer, lots of cleanup work with those trees.

I am still in wheelchair. Will finish PT at home, so i can walk on my own, climb steps, etc. The walking i do now with a walker is with someone pushing wheelchair behind me in case i go down, hopefully i land in the chair.
I hope to leave by 11, if paperwork is done. I have no control over that.
Will do 930 PT in morning.

Once i leave, head to mission bbq . got to feed the flight crew.

I hope someone has a video camera. I would love to see the aerial refueling of RNGs Fire Truck

Hope your release is smooth BEF

Good morning all. The forecast for today is - someone is going to wake up with a big smile on their face after making it through a really bad time. Happy Great Escape day BEF.

Shhhhh! The Subaru is actually ..... primary!
RNG痴 fire truck will create the diversion and the Chinook will swoop in and snatch up the Subaru ....... if things get wild.

Except ... all the diversion plans will be useless if he's been up half the night watching Steve McQueen. I'm worried he's about to slip out unnoticed in that new chair, then starts pulling wheelies down the last corridor and ends up skidding sideways into the Subaru

Good morning! Up early for the Great Escape, Temp range in central TX is 78˚ to 98˚. Rain only from the pop up sprinklers.

BEF report in with the last weather report from the confines.

 

[wngsprd]

72 going to 80? Where did yesterday's 96F go? Washed away with the storm that also ran me in from mowing.

Condition: BEFCON 1!! I saw the helicopter circling low yesterday on a practice run.

Glad I didn't till one field yesterday as planned...surely would have had erosion from the storm last night and the one predicted this afternoon.

By the sounds your leaving one way or another BEF.
