Good Morning Guys,
Ct, 46 to start going to 63 ! Last good day before the rain and wind !

i think this guy would have been better off using the A to tow the trailer with the F on it…

Kilroy, really interesting, I think you are correct with that statement !

Looks like a good day for a long walk with some foliage pictures taken before the rain starts !

Hope all have a safe day !

Good Morning!!!! 70F @ 4:53AM. Mainly sunny. Near record high temperatures. High 93F. Winds light and variable.

My buddy and I, with the help of a zoom call to the builder of the new wiring harness, got the old harness removed from the van engine yesterday. Huge sigh of relief, but now the detective work starts figuring out wiring coming back from other parts of the car.

Headed south again in a few minutes, getting an insomnia inspired early start. Van and trailer pretty much full. It will be interesting to see if there's enough traction on the gravel driveway to get up the hill. That may delay the departure a bit while I wait for a neighbor to come over and pull me up the rest of the way with a tractor.

Other than that, I'm hoping for a smooth trip, though I'm not quite sure how I'll deal with the short driveway on the other end. Somehow it'll all work out...

Hang in there, gang, Friday's comin'!

Good morning! 62˚F heading to 82˚, clear skies, with a West or North breeze. Fri and Sat will be in the 90s again.

Very productive day yesterday even though my knee was giving me grief. Cleaned most of the siding of the estate house and cleaned the inside as much as we can with the online items laying around.

The lawyer is really good and will handle any real estate transaction that we already have a buyer for saving the estate thousands of what the Realtor would charge. We will be showing the House Sunday to a back-up buyer who came to the estate sale and we want to make it look as good as it can with the online auction still going on.

The rental knee machine was delivered yesterday. Insurance does not cover it, but it was highly recommended by the surgeon. It keeps the knee flexible after surgery. I will keep it for 3 weeks until I start out-patient rehab.

Morning all, 39 going up to 68 and partly cloudy
Got outdoor movie screen ready but had a lot of day job to do and son to drive around so that was about it for me.

Need to split wood today, way behind for the later winter stack using dry ash rounds.

Need to call some relatives that I havn't talked to in a while.

Be well,

Wife had a great PT therapist come to the house for the first few weeks to do bending and standing/walking exercises. Took time to get the full range of motion back. The machine can be helpful in the beginning I would think. After my motorcycle accident and body cast for months I could have used that machine for sure. Back then it was on me to do with little help. Placed the back of the knee over the back of a chair and hooked a book bag to the foot and loaded books into it based on the level of pain I could stand

anyone else sign a fuel oil prepay and what did you pay per gallon? I only need about 300 gallons, so can't qualify for big discounts.
275 tank is full now, but will need a fill up end of December. I'm on automatic delivery but who knows what that would cost at spot rates

Only time I did prepay, it burned me as fuel prices went down. Been 20 some years ago. Towards the end of burning oil, I was using offroad diesel, as it was a good bit less than heating oil delivered. I'd fill 4 cans at a time and pour it in the tank.


was 36 for the low this morning. what's left of the leaves on the back tree is pretty in the sun.

Ken, was always a question when owning a farm about using the farm tank for my truck, which really
wasn't a business farm truck since I wasn't farming for money or profit.
Was an issue early on with my diesel Ram.
I wonder if there are areas where the municipality hires inspectors to go dip tanks
and confirm the fuel color. You always think about it, but short of responding to a complaint, are they
even allowed on your property to find out?
No one knows that fuel isn't going into your farm equipment.

has anyone had their diesel tank dipped by an inspector on the road?

now for the fun stuff
twin one barrel Offenhauser carbs on an Offenhauser manifold. Flat head V8, not a lot of hp but sounded
nice. twin glass packs, very mellow
as soon as my brother pulled in he said forget the ride, it will be too rough on your neck. Ok...
so I took pics instead. No power brakes. No disc brakes. No power steering.
Hurst shifter, fuzzy dice tire valve caps
Older restoration, Ferrari red it seems, very pretty,

This thing will stick out like sore thumb locally. My nephew will need to be on his best behavior.

Good Afternoon,
Drew, beautiful truck, hope your nephew knows what he has there !!

Kyle, took a 3 mile walk this morning and hopefully got some nice shots before the wind and the rain !

67°F and still no rain

Good report at Sophie’s ophthalmologist. He showed on the pics how the healing had progressed. Change to prescription dosage and back in another month.

Almost finished with my internet mod. I hope

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day
