I’ve been tempted to upgrade to a super duty myself. My HD is a 2008 with under 60k miles.

Are you able to get it straight without bending a little?

Yes I can.
I counted up my pain pills and determined I’ll run out Sunday. Because so many people abuse pain pills it was hard to do. Then the Doctor would only give a prescription for 10 more pills and the pharmacy wouldn’t let me pick them up until I called in Sunday to pick them up.

Good Evening Guys,
Made it to Vermont by 7:45pm, was a pretty good run considering we got behind a few pokes ! As Thomas said earlier, looks like we had a few spot showers !

Good God, I love this place ! Can’t figure out why we don’t live here all the time ! 😭

Oh that’s right we have grand children in Ct ! 😊

So peaceful here, Kathleen and I had a glass of wine out on the front porch together, really nice !

Hope all have a great evening !

Good Evening GM'ers !

It's a balmy 62F with fair skies @ 22:15 here, heading down to a low of 62 overnight with a 60% chance of showers.

We've been at peak color for probably 3 - 4 days:

This past Monday morning it got down to 32.2 per the closest PWS and The Woman said there was significant frost when She got up ... I could see a lot of plants got hit and were frostbit when I got out there.

Warmed right back up to the 70's on Tuesday (through today) though ... so we're officially in Indian summer I guess.

I got the front lawn cut along with the back and east side, down here around the house on Tuesday:

Also ran over the straw on the newly seeded area and ground it up and blew it off. Still have a little further clean up to do there but new grass is looking good ... (y)

At some point in that time frame I got all the rest of the holes for the strawberries melted in the weed block fabric - 4 rows total with around 50 holes per row.

I've also been working some on getting the strawberry plants in the ground, 45 more planted so far:

Still quite a ways to go on that, on the agenda for tomorrow.

Would have gotten more done on that today but had to knock off early for a doctor's appointment.

Also got the order for the softener parts placed on Tuesday, although it has not shipped yet. Hopefully tomorrow.

Last Sunday the brass parts for the softener valve got soaked in some Iron-X to remove as much of the rest of iron as possible.

That seemed to darken up the parts quite a bit, probably a chemical reaction.

Woman was lamenting that they were no longer bright and shiny ... so I may hit the exterior again with a wire brush ... now that I've dug out the Sears Roto-zip and the HF speed controller.

Hope everyone has been having a decent week ... (y)

Drinking warm cup of coffee. 63° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 73° with cloudy and light rain. Grocery shopping went well. Went with neighbor to get a estimate on getting rust damage repaired on 2012 F150. Going to cost a few $$$. But truck only has 60K on it. Had late lunch with friends. Then enjoyed the nice weather on back porch. Today will be much of the same on back porch.
Road in front of my house.

good morning all
up early with the rest of you
near record high temps here today and tomorrow

green peppers survived 36 degrees two nights ago, about a dozen growing like mad
they will love this warm weather

next year if all those strawberries come in, RS will be making RS's world famous strawberry preserves!

no plans for today. I kind of like that
I forgot to change the house water filter yesterday, will do that today.
bet the first one in line is a mucky mess
