Good morning!!!!

[wngsprd]

Been getting up earlier here, too.

72 going to 93.

PJ, sounds like you had a very Happy Birthday...day off and music making.

Ed and Randy, get well!

The only time I ever almost turned my tractor over was pulling a bush out of the ground while not driving straight away. Quite a scare putting one of the rear wheels so far in the air.

Got a couple more food plots tilled and planted yesterday. Didn't take long for the crows to find the seeds that hadn't been covered. Mowed for a few hours including along the road...no treasures found there, just a few plastic bottles and cups and one Bud Lite can. I did have a lady with DC plates stop and ask me how to get back to I-95. Boy, was she lost.

Good morning all, 68 going to 88 with a 20-50% chance of showers-heavy rain. Tired this morning, feel like this might be a good day for a nap. Hope to get some electric to the lathe today, will see how far I get.

Buppies, prayers sent, brown stone drive way? is that pavers or a pattern pressed in?

Kyle, thanks for the info, I guess, I like Don's better though. I always sleep on my right side and that is the shoulder that hurts and I hope it does not take that long. Will try to post some pics today.

Have a great day, prayers sent. Ed

Nice piece, Ron. I actually live in Cohoctah township, but we have a Howell Mailing address. Fowlerville schools. There are still a lot of old tools floating around, a lot of old tool and die guys also.

I sold some stuff a few weeks ago to a Howell resident. Added to old tools floating around in the area.

Ed the stone comes from quarry near Lexington three coats of tar and gravel or prime and double seal or some call it chip and seal. There are different colored stones you can obtain grey, green, black, red, light green. Depends on what the customer wants and how much they want to pay. And a blue tint which I almost forgot

Poured first cup of coffee. 70° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 80° with thunderstorms in afternoon. Got .89" of rain yesterday. Did get one of my projects completed. Need to change blades on flail mower today. Not sure if I am going to sharpen them or just turn them around. My back does not like sitting bent over for that long. Maybe do 1/2 today and the rest tomorrow.

RIP Aretha.

PJ, Happy belated Birthday !!!!

Ed, get well soon. Antibiotics affect me in another way.

Randy, get well soon.

Hawkeye, hope wife ankle is getting better.

Prayers for those in need.

Good Morning All.

stomach is grumbling from not enough food or coffee, getting epidural on my neck this morning, but thankfully I get up so early that I could have a little black coffee. They dose me with enough Versid that I fall asleep, which technically I shouldn't, but I am so uncomfortable lying on my stomach, which I never ever do, on those operating tables that I'm quite happy to fall asleep. And Miss Daisy to drive me home, for a switch.
So today is a rest day. I think this will be my tenth or eleventh epidural, just drugging the race horse to keep him going...
After all that gardening, I was long overdue.

Mostly, now the biker I'm thinking about already has that heavy leather gang vest on, with a gazillion badges all over it, and those heavy chains might just fit in for the post apocalyptic look. Perhaps with small ones hanging off the ape hangers.
You bicyclists worry about ounces, driving a Hawg, maybe not so much.

hmmm, must be a small, medium and large on those grubbers, looks like i only got the medium. Since I'm pulling this usually with the FEL
grab hooks, maybe limiting myself is good. The big one or anything with a cinch ring probably ought to get hooked to the drawbar.
I worry about bending the FEL cylinders pulling things like this, particularly at an angle.

Couple of hours to kill waiting for ride, can't get dirty. I guess I can't procrastinate any more about finishing the laundry.
Sorting socks, how can I lose so many socks? Clearly they are getting stuck inside something else, but I have a whole pile of ones.
these are life's little challenges I can deal with.

Drew, I pray your procedure goes as smooth as possible.

Up early today. Watched a bit of a documentary about an attempted raid on Gallipoli in WWI. Didn't end well for the Crown's forces.

I have caught up at work a bit, might try to go to a clinic to get some prednisone for this spreading poison ivy.

Topps, I hope whatever "not fun" you had to do last week is past.

Don, it will take some work to wear out those boots.

Hope all of you have a blessed day.

Hope the treatment helps with your neck pain.

I wear low ankle socks during warm weather. But somethings eats them up. Gave up sorting. As long as color is the same. I garb 2 and put them on.

80 degrees this morning, going for 98; hot and humid. Old age is overtaking me. I spent about 4 hours on yard work yesterday, got a shower and then could hardly get around, so tired and sore.
