Good morning!!!!

Bought this for my parents in Munich back in 67. Given how rich I was back then probably not worth much but when my parents passed I reclaimed it.

Hasn’t worked in years. I suspect all gummed up inside from my Dad’s heavy smoking. Another of the projects on the “slim chance I’ll get to it list”.

55F and clear @ 20:30, heading down to around 48F in the overnight for the low. High hit 71.2F here today with mixed sun and clouds.

Got insurance bill scheduled for payment first thing this morning.

Otherwise a change of pace for today:

Took box blade off and stuck on PHD on the Kubota with the 2' auger and got four planting holes drilled.

Tulip, Red Maple, and the Japanese Flowering Cherry "Kwanzan" trees all planted and well watered in, also one of the (two) Dwarf Burning Bushes. Will do the other one tomorrow probably after going in for my flu shot.

Stuck three t-posts in around two of the trees, which will hopefully keep the deer off of them until we can get them properly protected tomorrow.

Noticed while putting on the PHD hopper feeder was already empty again. So will need to refill that tomorrow as well.

When I went up to get the second bucketload of screened compost these two were up there:

Think that might be a different buck, his rack looked bigger. Maybe a 10 point ?

He let me get to within about 20' of him before he turned around and headed for the neighbor's woods.

He didn't go too far though ... seemed pretty reluctant to leave his doe behind:


She headed in the opposite direction and I hadn't even made it back over to the shop and he was hot on her trail heading after her:

Love is in the air ...

Need to run over and shut things down in the barn.

Then see what I can scrounge up for desert ... probably some Entenmann's Cheese Danish.

Hope everyone had a great Sunday ... (y)
Love in the air or is it lust.

Another beautiful sunny day in the 70's here!!
Happy Birthday Mrs. Mostly.
Just a quick check in to show the progress on the lathe as requested. Starts with first project on top then on to the bottom. The three pens are from wood used at or cut down around the house.
Hope everyone stays safe and healthy!
