Good morning!!!!

[ronjhall]

Drinking first cup of coffee. 50ｰ with light rain this morning. Heading to 40ｰ in PM with some sun. Got exercise bike back together yesterday. San is coming over sometime today to help move from garage to house. Then I can figure out how to program the displays. Tried to get pictures of birds at feeds with new lens. They did not show up. Did take a couple of picture to show how much it zooms. Got a heavy duty tripod on it's way to support the 4.5 lbs. lens and 2 lbs camera.
300mm and 600mm.


Little report on my Aunt with 7 wheel walker. She has adapted to the reverse brake handles very well. Had to move a couple pieces of furniture to make way for it's added size from a aluminum walker.

RNG, great pictures.

Eric, is a google search cheating?

Drew, I had to go to Trac-Vac site to see the one with canvas. Did not know they made one that was not steel.

Don, those gardens need to get done. Going to be time to plant soon.

Prayers and best wishes for everyone.

Good Morning All.

Eric, although your geologist has buck in his name, I'm guessing the connection is not with deer. More clues?

Ok. Don would not have recommended it.

No that's fine, but instead of google, a search engine like "duckduckgo" would perhaps be more appropriate

Ron,
It's a big canvas bag inside a metal frame, which sits on top of tippable steel garden cart. Heavy duty, but weak seams it appears.
Should have used better thread apparently.

this is what I replaced the intake hose on a few days ago.

I did use DDgo. But Google is what came to my mind.

Ok. Don would not have recommended it.

Everyone knows they were pets not food, like our dogs and cats. They lived on fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, and greens.

Hope everyone is still on the mend. I picked up a cold that hit pretty hard last night...coffee is my medicine of choice.

.

Hope you feel better. I’m taking the same medicine, but a lower dose.

I forgot Eric’s question.

 

[buckeyefarmer]

I yea, look up some old fossil from the UK.

Good morning to all! Low of 34, overcast at 6 am, cloudy with drizzle right now, showers later then turning to snow tonight.

All remaining family went out to dinner last night at a previously favorite place ( not so much now). It was the Mine Shaft Tavern in Madrid NM. It was an old mining town that has become a tourist attraction with all of the old worker shacks turned into weird artsy shops. There is an old steam engine and coal cars, a museum, and a tour into one of the hand shoveled / picked mines. The food at the tavern used to be fantastic both in quality and quantity.... not so much anymore. The service was poor, they ran out of anything chicken, and anything pork.... really? We ended up staying (too far out in the middle of nowhere to go anyplace else). It was OK after a couple of cocktails.....

Randy, do not push it too hard and be the infamous ‘ bull in the china shop ‘ while working in the garage. I know all those chores are calling out to you.....

Drew, good to hear that you are getting back to the normal outdoor routine. Sorry read that the hardly used canvas cover is coming apart, things just are not made to last these days....

RNG, thanks for posting the zoo pics. Looks very nice. Looking for more pics of the ride out to the desert...

Eric, I too, have now forgotten what I was supposed to look up.... I will go back and find it again...

LFN, do not have too much fun out in the cold / wet.... sounds like your day is full for sure...

Wifey is taking MIL and SIL into town to get their nails done. AAAHHH, peace and quiet for a few hours.... I will savor the moment.... it has been ‘ loud ‘ for the past few days... a lot of excited ‘ catching up ‘ going on....

Everyone have a great day. Prayers sent.

Eric, I now know the connection....
