72 clear sky.

I had plans blowing leaves but the wind blowing from the wrong direction...gotta work smart not hard ;) so it was putter day.
No plans for this evening other than feet up setting on the deck waiting for the critters and stars.

Enjoy your evening all.

Ripped a few roots with the tractor and ripper yesterday. They were protruding through the ground and annoying me.
Concreter arrives very soon to begin setting up the boxing for the slab for my barn. Hopefully the rain is gone. Barn kit arrives on the 24th so the slab should be good by then all going well.

Good evening all. 61F for the start, overcast, and breezy. Moderate wind with some brisk gusts, overcast with patches of drizzle, trace of rain, and high temp was 78F. Real rain coming next 1 1/2 days, 2+ in the forecast. Bike ride start delayed to let drizzle past, the trip to town to get groceries and mower parts. Nap finished of day, and grilled brats for dinner.

Roy nice that wife's sister came for visit.
Drew if you did not haul much weight or tow, I expect the trannie will do alright. Severe service is another matter.
Ron that was long PT. Did they sat why so long? nice moon
Buppies you have extreme bouts of rain, and no rain.
Drew no did not find out. Not likely to either since choir cancelled. Likely due to practice bouncing around day/time/location.
Mike neat being able to watch deer.
Paul safe trip and hope you get speaker and wife chore's done
Billy good to hear new faucet in.
Don heard about Govenor's mandate, have not heard about if vaccine companies are doing the rest of the studies they normally do to get FDA approval
RNG sorry about the winds. Black bass have a slot size, they want to protect some of the breeding size, and remove some larger fish to promote population growth. Glad to hear you are doing well on solar power.
Ken good luck with wood and decorations. nice pic
RNG nice pics. Don't always stop for pics either.

Mike thanks for posting pics
David sorry about lack of improvement on Sophie's vision. Glad HD visit was better.
David hope no damage from quake.

The FDA is neutral on the Moderna and J&J boosters - whatever that means. ???

This evening was our newly formed Plant Based first group meal under the outdoor pavilion. Since pot luck are still not allowed everyone bought their own. My wife made jackfruit BBQ, cranberry relish, potato salad and salad. Everything was made from scratch even the BBQ sauce and salad dressing. The cranberry relish was surprisingly good and only had three ingredients - cranberries, orange (with jest), and dates.
In this group plant based means no animal products, and no oil/salt/sugar.

there have been some new happy owners of small chain saws here, but wonder
if anyone has tried this new patented Craftsman lopper/chainsaw?
The way it encapsulates the chain seems to make it safer.
93 percent four star or better, lot of happy customers it seems.
would make great robot arms in a B grade alien scifi movie....
That's kind of neat!
I bought one of those mini-chainsaws, which works OK. Only problem is the small branches vibrate a lot so I have to grab the branch to stabilize it. This lopper style jaws should prevent that

I put it on my wish list, but doubt I buy something like this...maybe if DeWalt comes out with something similar, I'd consider more seriously
