Good morning!!!!

[kenmbz]

morning all, 47 going up to 54 and chilly, had to take in some plants.
Planted the tree, mowed some of the side lawns.

Then we took a trip up to Frenchtown after dropping the kid off in town for work.

Shadfest is going on, town was full.
May go today early to try and beat the crowds.

Feel better all, Drew sorry you had to cancel.

Be well,
Tree is in, had to remove old pine tree roots first, so took a little longer, but done.

Frenchtown main drag, steel bridge in the background

Frenchtown looks and sounds like a neat place. What the heck is Shadfest?

Shad is a type of fish we don't want to eat
Celebrates the return of the Shad to the river many years back, when the area was filled with artists.

We usually park on the PA side and walk the bridge to the NJ side as parking is a nightmare with all the tourists.

Drew hope you continue to feel better

Great pictures Ken I really enjoy them

a little better, this is going to take another day, most of it in bed

shad is the worst fish in the world to eat, competes with carp
oily, strong and just full of bones

Frenchtown NJ is a lovely small river town with some nice shops

Drew, I hope that whatever you are eating stays in you and doesn't leave violently. Been there, done that.

Hose reel installed; My back and knees said that is enough of that for today. Bored the 1/2" holes with a masonry bit and installed the threaded rod with nuts and washers.

Chilly today
Good worship, I led singing.
Good lunch, we had a visitor from MO here teaching a class at the Fire academy, so invited him to lunch with us.
I got out my turbocad last night to work on another cabin plan. Been awhile since I used it so forgot how to do things. Microstation is still my favorite CAD program. I used to teach it at local community college. Autocad is next favorite, but after they disabled my last version because they weren’t supporting it any longer, I refused to buy it again.

That's what threw me. It sounds like fun. And we have some unusual festivals in Texas too, I guess. The Art Car Parade in Houston is one.

On April 21st we celebrate San Jacinto Day and the victory of Texican forces at San Jacinto over Santa Anna and the resulting Independence of Texas from Mexico. It's not a festival but a celebration and one of my many favorites.
