PO visit a success. Install was pretty straight forward and worked 1st try

Now we have oven again.

Off to town. 1 beer keg needs replacing, need a bag of quikcrete from HD, some little shopping and treat Sophie to a late lunch.

Once home I just might declare the work day complete.

Don, congrats on H&F standing

Ian In London, the drone guru, is on vacation in Iceland. He's making good use of his time, and his flight skills...

Check out his Youtube channel for more volcano vids...

1852 miles later we are home again.
Was in several thunderstorms today. Temp would drop from 90s to 70s during the rain, then go back up after.
Lots of poison ivy here, and at my dads.

yesterday was 2 yrs since I got GBS, when I first noticed my legs felt funny. Wasn’t diagnosed till the 12th. Am so thankful to be able to walk, although my feet still feel like bricks at times.

well that's good to know about headphones, thanks. Why they would set the default to turn off in 5 minutes is curious.
I guess I have to download an app to reset this?

oh my is it going to be hot today, 96 degrees and sunny. I'm going to mow the lawn one last time with loaner mower then will clean it up
so it can go back to owner.

Looks like Elsa will skirt this area but we'll find out tomorrow.

hope you all have a good day.

Roy and Drew, load the app, then you can easily adjust it. Then bluetooth it to your phone. I have a Scribd account, and listen to it while I'm on the tractor. Nothing like mowing and listening to a good audio book to help pass the time.

Yesterday, the Elsa forecast was little or no rain here for Thursday...now it's up to 1 to 2 inches, so will get some things done outside today, including searching for a small leak in the barn roof.

I need to make new tops for our cornhole platforms...I made them for my wife years ago...used best quality treated lumber...the tops are old-formula treated plywood, but one has developed rot...so was planning on using the old tops of the outdoor ping pong table and cutting to size...not sure what the material is, but my son warns of inhaling the fibers...so I'm looking at UV resistant plexiglass and other materials...I'll need to cut a 6" round hole with a jigsaw, and possibly cut the sheet to size. Anyone used plastics like this and have any suggestions?

I believe what's happening on Texas' coastline will end up being a bigger rainmaker for more people. Some places have already had 12-14" of rain (don't know the accuracy), and it will probably head on up towards La and onward....maybe all the way to ERIC. (good thing he has a cab)... Just no wind to call it anything.

I cut polycarbonate at work a lot. Acrylic too, but it is more brittle and can crack easier. The UV polycarb will have a light blue tint. It really helps if you have some mist coolant, but you can make good cuts with a Diablo carbide tooth blade. Order a single flute 1/4" diameter carbide cutter for a router, and make you a pattern to cut the circle. If you can figure out how to leave a small .030", to make a 2nd finish pass, it will come out better. warning, plastic is pricey. You can probably find a cheaper tipped router bit than this one.

We have some type of plant that grows like a vine up onto the oak trees. The leaves look waxy and almost like they are fake plastic. They sure let out an odor when they get mowed. Maybe sumac? I'm not sure.

Bupps, glad you had a good day.

Randy, mower money. You only need a bit around $500 (like me and my Beast Steiner).

Sodamo, glad you got the oven going. Have a good beer.

Kyle, I ended up buying a Toro Timecutter 50”/23 hp. 52 hours, got a set of new blades with it. It’s basically a backup, but I’ll probably use it back in the holly grove area. I had to re, rearrange the tractor shed.
