The Meyer lemon tree survived the Summer and it looks like a decent crop.

Good afternoon!
We are at our high today at 83 as more clouds and possibly rain coming.

Strange night had to P every 30-60 minutes. Pain is subsiding so taking less pain pills. Trying to time dosage so max when PT comes here this afternoon.

Surgical site looks good.

They look like the flatbread they use in the area instead of utensils to pick up food off the shared plate.

The installer called yesterday and said my lift was finally there (ordered it in late July). They brought it down and installed it today. Took two guys about three hours. I still need to hard wire it. They were able to temporary wire it on 110, to adjust and bleed it. Would've taken me three days, probably. I'm happy!

Hey old buddy, old pal my friend! Wish you lived nearer! :) Just a fair warning, my buddy has one and everyone else's projects get stuck up on it awaiting parts and labor. LOL.

m7040, your daughter could be a National Geographic photographer. Some of the shots are very timely, some are touristy, some of the back street shots show everyday life. Is she still getting offers of courtship? :)

I believe I have the clutch job done, slave cylinder is working properly it looks like I hope. Now I have the front clip off of the car. It is going to be a beast to get back on, because the original owner must have bumped into something and many of the tabs are bent/broken. I will have to fabricate some and rivet them in place to fix.

Not much to show, but a dirty condenser coil that is being replaced, (this is why I had to pull the front clip).

Not sure if anyone is interested, but Haas machine tool is having a flash 1 day sale on drills/taps/tooling. You will have to make an account, and only online orders are given the sale price. The stuff is decent quality. Cobalt drills, coated taps. If you needed some here is the link. I have no idea how much shipping is. Located in California.

Good Afternoon gstrom99,
Beautiful lift, I can’t tell you how many times that I wished I had one !
Is that a 12 ft ceiling in your shop ?
I’m thinking you need that height for the lift to be effective !Enjoy it !

On the first PT, the day after surgery, Wednesday, I got to 103˚ knee bend. Second PT, today, I got to 108˚ knee bend. I did not loose any flexion during the peak swelling - 72 hours after surgery.

The "easy" at home PT has only 4 more sessions, (Only 6 in home allowed by Medicare) then I'm scheduled With The Doctor - Lopez, DPT that's when knee bending gets very serious and improvement each session is mandatory. THE BEND will have to be reach 130˚ and perfectly straight the other direction. The Doctor will also make sure my gait is young again.

A lot of hard work ahead.

Good (Saturday) morning. Overnight Low of 3.9C and it's presently 19.2C, somewhat overcast with a breeze.

Gave myself a haircut yesterday. I've used one of those round bladed head shavers to give me a #2 all over, followed by a beard trim and an ear hair clean out.

Next was to take a 'tour' around the property... sure enough there was a few wattle tree branches to take care of. So much so that I reckon I'll need to take that whole tree down once and for all. It's threatening a fence in Paddock #2 so it's more of a priority.

The fire in the woodheater is being allowed to extinguish. Hopefully that'll be the last one 'til Autumn.

That's about it, take care all.

Looking4new, Bill are you anywhere near Hornepayne in Northern Ontario ? Had a friend up there !

All have a great day ! 🙏
I am 8 hrs and 19 minutes from Hornepayne IF I go via highway 11.
I would probably take highway 17 and run north at White River.
