For years I had the habit of rarely carrying change, usually putting on dresser at night, eventually moved to container. We were living in Atlanta at time. Sophie’s nephew was about to graduate from ASU and invited us. Times were a bit tight so didn’t expect we could attend. Sophie disagreed and hauled out the change stash and began rolling. I don’t think coin mchines were popular yet. I helped of course. Had enough for 2 plane tickets to Phoenix plus. We went.

good afternoon, getting colder currently 36 and sunny
Picked up a new Stihl 261 CM this afternoon with 18 inch light bar. The older 261 CM has a 20 inch bar. The new saw is significantly lighter than the old one.
Repairing the Stihl 026 to use for lighter stuff.
The Makita 16 inch chainsaw is handy to use for smaller occasional use.
That should get me ready for cutting some serious firewood for next year
D left this morning for meetings in NY
Other daughter is having packages delivered to our house for her Christmas presents to avoid the porch pirates. There is a mountain of them so far.
Brushing Cody daily has helped with tangles and reduced the fur balls rolling around the house. Shelties sure have a lot of fur. Teeth brushing has cleaned up his teeth except a couple of small patches on his corner teeth. The vet was not too concerned about it at the recent visit.
Cleaned up the shop area yesterday which is a never ending job it seems. I have a lot of flat surfaces attracting stuff it seems. Hope to have some more time to devote to some rearranging of the space

Good (Friday) morning. Overnight Low of 12.5C and it's presently 25.8C, clear & fairly calm.
Nothing really accomplished yesterday as I tried to stay close to my phone for any 'updates' on my Sister.
It's warm out there but I think that I will do a mowing, at least around the house & driveway.
That's about it, take care all.
Thanks Mate AND to all who've expressed their prayers & concerns. I received an email from my Aunt that the surgery went well and my Sister is recovering... possibility of her returning home tomorrow morning! Surgeries, these days, are truly miraculous... minimally invasive and a 'quick' recovery. Yay!

Sorta, kinda similar.
Last spring I went to the bank and withdrew 1k.
I don't like to carry more than I need so I put $800 in the sunglass holder in my everyday vehicle.
This and that and I forgot about it.
This fall I was going to do the same thing again.
Abracadabra I suddenly had an extra $800.

You've got a great memory. Yes I'm into E-biking. Up to 30Ks on a Wednesday and around 40 every Sunday.
I have never been into hiking although we do have some great trails and scenery. The 3 presumably dead (2 Americans and 1 Canadian) were experienced climbers. some of their equipment has been sighted and it is assumed they have falen and not survived. The TV programme "NZ Hunter Adventures" has some great scenery.
While I visit this site each day I dont say much because, like Wagtail my seasons ar opposite yours. right now I'm visiting Sydney, it's 30C degrees,and im waiting to go on a Christmas/New Year cruise.
Someones got to do it.

23 outside this AM, heading to lower 40's. No precipitation expected.
Maybe a good day to hang the Christmas lights. Since, you know, the holiday is right upon us. Wow, time flies.
Managed to get out with the wife yesterday and find a nice piece of cherry for the shelf. Local lumber yard that does high quality work on lumber. I don't like going there because his selection and workmanship is flipping unreal. Just beautiful wood. So many ideas and you want to come home with it all. We spent more time looking, just because. It was nice to get out too, away from this grind.
Morning chores are calling. So are some owls who woke me up by the bedroom window. Hooting softly back and forth. Just enough low frequency sounds to get me moving.
Hope all have a great start to the day, and a good weekend. Be safe.
