Good Morning Guys,

Drew, totally understand the limber plumber post ! The last time I was under the kitchen sink installing a new fawcet assembly, I said this was it ! We will see what happens the next time !

This picture can only mean one thing ! Yep, boating season is coming to a close ! How appropriate that it goes into the 80’s today !

Fall boating is simply awesome on the Chesapeake. You can boat into November.
only downside boating up North, you don't get to do enough of it
unless you have a pilot house, a heater and a lot of desire

who needs antifreeze? just keep going...

time to go straighten up garage. Killing time waiting for the truck

Wngsprd, gorgeous hike. Are you to Jennings Creek? You are getting close. When you get to the Great valley overlook on the BRP you look down on my little patch of ground. One of the reasons I want a cabin down in that area. So nice, and here I’m playing in the mud.

I'm past Jennings...came down I-81 to Buchanan, and then up Rte 43 to park yesterday...was faster than BRP and I needed the extra time...still got home after dark...I'll get back down and look for Great Valley soon.

68°F and 0 rain

Need to spend some time on my untidy, but functional home network

You might agree

All this reporting of closing pools, I should report. Very pleased with the salt water conversion of Sophie’s pool. Not that I’m a big time swimmer, but a quick dip followed by a leisurely soak in the hot tube sure make a nice end to the work day.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Don and Kyle, you may be getting both of these total solar eclipses? ...Mostly and LS maybe one?

Don't know where you live, two-bit.

that's an Olympic winning snakes nest David

put up a protective plastic fence around the new willow, after deer really messed it up.
just when done R&L trucking shows up, nice lady about my size wheeled that sofa box right in.
where it will sit until my helper arrives.

AirBnB ...rental.. or wife and I move in..retire completely once and for all...rent farm out...use Milk House as home base while traveling.

More sucking sounds. Just a little more to do...break time.

Somewhat similar thinking here. We did VRBO vacation rental, but no longer. County keeps changing the rules. Transient tax up to 13%. Shortterm rental redefined as less than 30 days, now, 180 days. Big push for additional licensing which means additional fees. Endgame is to change property tax to deny any homeowner exemptions and new tax category, so we quit shortterm. Still consider the possibility we could lease out main house and use the cottage as a base for travel. Of course this would be after all the furry kids have moved on and a reliable caretaker esconced in the studio to maintain the systems. Tempting, but unlikely to happen.

It took me a moment to realise you were referring multiple skulls/scalps and not the Naval slang word for 'toilet'.

Strangely, it's only the USN that uses the singular 'head'. Everyone else (Naval-wise) uses the plural 'heads'.

Good one

hot sweaty successful afternoon.
Well mostly, the adapter that came with bidet was wrong one for toilet, need a reducer, will pick one
up tomorrow.
after much struggling, took apart old couch and went to put new one in.
I could just not pick up my end without hurting myself. Called my brother and he came right over and
it was a struggle but we squeezed it through the 22" wide door.

I need to get some small L brackets to bolt it into floor and that plumbing adapter and job will be done.
got pretty warm out this afternoon
