As always your garden (y)

Thanks Thomas.

Do the deer visit your garden for snack?

Funny you should ask.

I was just back there closing up the fence … and there 5 of them back there - 3 does and 2 fawns - grazing on the lawn. Probably looking for grubs.

I was on the Cub … probably got within 30’ of the closest one.

From what I can tell the monofilament fence is keeping them out of the garden (knock on wood)

Just hoping that continues …

67°F and cloudy this morning, and only got up to 78° here today. Rains rolled in mid-morning, about four hours earlier than predicted. Just rain, though for us. All of the severe stuff stayed well south. Still raining off and on at 21:40 as I type this.

Hope David and his crew are OK. I have a couple of friends on the big island and Maui. Not heard from them either yet.

I have one of those DeWalt right angle adapters that I use to get holes and fasteners into unwieldy places. Been a very handy tool over the years. I do admire that hand crank version, though.

Good evening, gents

Missed a couple days and had to skip ahead to make an announcement....

Many fluorescent tube light bulbs like T5's etc, about to be discontinued in 2 weeks. If you have fixtures you might want to buy a couple of spares.

Now I'm trying to figure out the best available barn lighting, and if someone has had their lights for over 3 years to attest for longevity?

Good Late Morning Guys,
Sorry to hear that some of you had that bad storm come through and had either property damage or lost power or both ! Hope you get your power back soon !

It was a rough start here this morning ! On the way to my dentist I was waiting in a line of cars at a stop light and young girl and boy friend drove into the back of my truck ! Was a few minutes late for the dentist appointment but not too bad. Then the dentist while attempting to get the temporary crown off, his hand slipped and smashed my lower lip ! Blood all over ! This was all before 9 am ! :oops:

So 60's to start and going to 76 with on and off rain !

Hope you all have a blessed and safe day !
Glad you didn't get banged up worse. Hope your dentist gave you a card for a free ice cream cone.

Don, the trailers will sell lightning fast. Keep them until last so you can use them to disperse all the other items. They bring money! Smart buyers will look at the condition of the wood, and the tires.
If you had to put a reasonable value on these trailers what would it be?
#1 16'x6'4" trailer with spare
#2 8'X5' trailer with spare
#3. 10'x5' trailer with spare

Poured Frist cup of coffee. 59° with partly cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 78° with scattered thunder showers. Got last of the chicken coop trim up yesterday. DTE (power company) came to finish trimming Maple away from power line. Took awhile to convince them that saw dust from chainsaw was not going to hurt fish in pond. It floats and filter system will collect it. I was beat when I completed the days work outside. Drank plenty of water. Grocery shopping today. Then mostly conserve energy rest of the day.

Prayers for David (sodamo), Sophie and dogs.

Everyone stay well and safe.

Good Morning All.

71 outside this AM, may touch 80 today. Rain expected this afternoon.

Got another tick off last night. Wonder if the uptick (no pun there) is due to the grass not being lower or the dog coming into the house more. Usually I get one or two a year. This is averaging one a day.

Roofer coming by at 9AM. Bringing donuts too. He feels bad for putting us off the last few times. All we need is a decent estimate. I need to get the man lift operating again. Dead batteries. Darn things are expensive.

ZTR is still on schedule for pickup tomorrow. I should have rented a trailer and hauled it back myself. That's one thing I don't have is a trailer for hauling the equipment. Cannot see spending money on something that will be not be used frequently. And it will sit in the weather with no garage yet. Maybe one day on the garage. That might be the next project. LOL.

Hope all are having a good day. Be safe. The morning news from Hawaii is shockingly bad. Seems the whole planet is on fire.

good morning all
cooler day today, cloudy, high around 80 with thunderstorms this afternoon.

My estranged second wife lives in Lahaina. Not good at all....
SIL in Oahu says the destruction is awful on nearby island.
Hope David is ok. He's way up top...

finished building the e bike, installed the larger front light after having to splice and solder the wires; too thin to
use connectors. Ran the security cable through both wheels and wrapped it so bike can't be lifted out of carrier.
There's a built in lock on the carrier also.

Buppies, glad new mower is working out well
if it keeps raining, we will never stop mowing...
