Good morning!!!!

filled up the truck today for 2.33 for regular; nice gas has come back down.

Not feeling real well. Toppop's misadventures are contagious.
There was mud on bottom of the three point carryall I bought from TSC this morning, so I squirted it off.
Should have let it dry. Picked this 100 pound awkward piece of welded steel up, actually dragging it off the tailgate, when my hands slipped on
the wet steel, the thing dropped to the ground, and one of the two pieces shaped like pallet forks smacked me right in the side of the face going down. Knocked my glasses off, and I stood there stunned with my hand on my head wondering how bad it was. Made quite a bang bouncing off my head but only a red spot there now and no blood. I got lucky, though considering that I already had a molar gone bad, dentist tomorrow, likely root canal, so my jaw already felt swollen, already on tramadol for a lot of pain, so nothing like a little love tap thankfully with the flat end of that steel. I should have waited and gotten help. Or simply pushed it off; have to repaint it anyway. Took a licking and kept on ticking.
Toppop and I are tough. It's our coordination we need to work on...;)

Watered again today for several hours. .7 rain wasn't enough.

Good evening all, 65 degrees and light rain falling.
Drew I hope you and toppop are not starting a trend I need to climb a ladder tomorrow!!,
Toppop glad to hear your healing and Drew be thankful for a hard head. lol
Thank you all for the well wishes for Bella yes she was a good girl, had 2 litters and each of my daughters Begged to keep one male from each litter, junior with the floppy ear then Bentley the runt of the litter. Needless to say they were spoiled and babied during the impressionable first years so In order not to get myself into the doghouse I never was able to do much obedience training with them because everything I did went south as soon as the girls (and my wife) were around. I just have 2 of the most lovable knuckle Shepard's ever, I call them dumb and dumber. I then imported Wido male who sits when told, comes when called and never goes any further than 10 feet away unless he is told it's ok. I studded Wido and took the pick of the litter male instead of a fee I had a home for him and would have made out better than a stud fee, but my son was hired for a police Dept and was heading out for the academy and planed on taking "Jeter" with him so we kept the puppy. Well I should have known better my daughter gets married and Bentley is still here, my son couldn't find an apartment in the city he is working that would take a dog so now I am the proud owner of 4 male Shepard's.

You need to get what they call a "tractor" with "pallet forks" :)

The temp when I got up at 6 this morning in Moonbeam, ON was a hearty 30F. Google earth Moonbeam and you will find out where I was. Not much of a town, about 1,000 people live there. The Trans Canada Highway (Hwy 11) goes right through on the southern edge.

I bought a 3 point hitch pallet forks and dirt scoop today, $100 for both! Both are average condition and function perfectly.

Not sure how it broke. For mower to do it. A rock would have to ricochet off another rock. It was just small hole. I put Gorilla tape on it when I first saw it. When I cleaned windows last month. It started cracking in all directions.
Got 1.35” of rain today. How did much did you get?

Probably about the same. It rained pretty much all day in Howell, let up about 3. I changed the oil, and filters on the bota tonight, need to get ready for winter.

OUCH Drew...Sounds like you got a left hook from that iron.

Took daughter and her friend to a Faith on the Field Christian fellowship at our local stadium tonight. It was all good.

It's gong to be just me and the 3 kids starting tomorrow through Sunday. Wifey is going on business trip with 2 others.

Next week, it's my turn. I'm going fishing (hopefully) in Port O'Connor Texas the 19th through the 21st. Probably just bay fishing and some night time floundering (in a boat). And I may just have to take the rest of my bottle of Black Seal Rum for a few pirate drinks. :)

Finished the last two miles of the trail clearing and mowing. I even had time to clean the pool, take a nap, and weed the garden. It's amazing how much more work can be done when the temperature is 30˚ cooler (70˚ instead of 100˚).
