Good morning!!!!

[Bird]

Good morning! 60˚F cloudy, South wind, heading to the 80s. Rain is not expected here till Wednesday morning. Bird my Scotts fertilizer has been out a week and still the grass is not green/growing, maybe the rumors of cold temps up North has lengthen the dormancy.

Might try to make an extra men's pilates class this morning - can always use the extra torture.

I spread the fertilizer Saturday and watered it in. Then yesterday morning, I spread some of that Scott's grass seed that may not survive hot weather, but I'm givin' it a chance because I'm too lazy to do anything else. I'm hand watering it 4 or 5 times a day for the time being; hoping for a good rain tomorrow night.

And this morning, my wife mentioned that the grass is greening up just a bit in at least parts of the yard. I expect to be mowing next week.

Another negative alligator bite, so that’s good news.
Working from home. Solved one problem with a program.

Congrats on retirement Rich. Now you will be busier than ever.
Wife said she’d bring me some soup for lunch at 12:30. It’s 1:30 and she’s not back so doing peanut butter. I ate peanut butter sandwiches all thru the pandemic, pretty much every day.

Already mowed some, rest will need it soon. Forsythia sure are pretty.

Dads barn through the dirty front window. I cleaned the windows last spring, need it again.
Lots of boards falling off the barn. The old nails just rusted.

New camera working well there, except it points at the morning sun.

20F cloudy strong wind brrrr,low teens over night.

Old man winter decided to spend the night and left 3 1/2" snow before day break,and his friend the wind got my attention real quick while doing morning chores by the looks of the up coming forecast maybe Saturday raking etc. duties will continue.

Not much happening today...day at pt. job,enjoying wood furnace heat looks like feet up night.
Enjoy your day all.

I saw these in a church in Leander and thought they might be the chairs you make.

Hope Lutheran Church - Architexas

architexas.com

I am not carpenter. I am supplying machines for furniture makers. Like CNC, automatic saws, painting robots etc
Those chairs are similar, but I dont think they are made here. Wood looks little different.
But those are nice chairs and church looks superb

I get me an eye appointment for 8 April. This is a good thing because I am going to do my medical on the 22nd, maybe with the new glasses.
The second cat gets castrated on the 4th May.
I've put in my order for a Country clipper Z-turn mower. I told the guy that if he couldn't get me the cheaper one (Avenue) that I would take the XLT. The difference in price is $3,000.oo. He will take the ride on mower I have now. I told him it would be extremely cheap, like a case of beer cheap...$50.oo

light snow and wind, aka snow squalls coming down, caused 20+ car pileup on I-81 in Central PA.
Good day to stay home with the heat turned up

nice plane Paul.
My diesel boat got .5mpg
How many gallons a mile does that jet burn?

About 3.75 miles per gallon in still air at 45,000 ft. Considerably less at lower altitudes.

I would never have guessed that she could get that good of mileage, interesting info.

BEF and Bupps, hope y'all get feeling better and get some sleep.

Rich, hard to get some parity in racing. Need some different brands in the big boys class.

Pops, I love flying! How did you get started? Where did you get your hours needed for flying people?

It's kind of neat having all these people with an affinity of Birch plywood.

Don, beautiful church. Hope the pilates did not wear you out too much...

Speaking of worn out....I just don't seem to have the energy I did 20 years ago. I took the 2nd lift hydraulic cylinder to work, to bust the nut off, and to skim/machine the rod packing's rust out of the wear bushing and dust seal groove areas. The main seal's groove is not rusted. Almost got done with the machining and had to take an important call about the possible new job. Still undecided. Still praying. A couple of things they are missing is, a fairly complete machine shop to do government jobs...They lack mid-size and bigger equipment.

Power went off at work this morning. Some contractors caused it by pulling on a big EMT pipe, trying to fit their pipe.... I heard a faint "clicking tick tak". It was the VFD in a manual mill Bridgeport clone. I could not get it to reset. Not sure if it got fried or not. I'm not an electronics guru. I know enough to get shocked...

Thomas, hope old man winter doesn't wear out his welcome too much.

Eric must be really busy with outside chores! Counting sheep by day, and by night too, going to sleep.

Sometimes, I just like a good ole country breakfast for supper....and watch a western.

Prayers for our team, especially those in need, our country, and Ukraine.

Good morning/afternoon all! Another mild Autumn overnight temp of 14C, light breeze and a sunny/cloudy day. Currently 26.1C outside which is a good 5C warmer than what's at the Aerodrome.

Could get windy tomorrow. That's about it.

Take care all.

Kyle for carrying passengers just a private license is needed, Paying passengers for charter work require commercial/instrument rating 250 hours but most operations require more. Airlines require ATP rating 1500 hours, again most operations require more hours. Building hours most common is become flight instructor.
