Little koala has moved to another tree close to where they are building the barn. The builders are very amused because everytime they use a rattle gun the koala complains loudly.

Had too look up what a Rattle Gun is. Battery Operated Impact Gun. What kind of noise does a Koala make?

A day to remember and reflect on what others have done to make our country great.

Managed to wash the mower, tractor and trucks yesterday. Put mower away for the season. Yippie!

Of course this AM it is 46 outside and heading towards 70. A cold front will bring an end to that later this evening.

Met one of the girls for sushi last night. Managed 2 rounds. Been going there for years, still as good as always.



Hope all have a good day today, be safe.

Very much like a pig gunting Ron. A group of them can be very scary if you are out in the dark and don't know what they are. You may be able to find a youtube video of it.
There is a description and video here. https://wildambience.com/wildlife-sounds/koala/

Happy Veterans Day! Our neighborhood is having a big celebration at the veterans plaza in the middle of the neighborhood. The place will be packed. Here is a pic where you can see it without people, there are thousands of pavers with names engraved in memory of the honored veterans. There will be a military band and the command sergeant from Fort Hood will be the guest speaker.

Good morning! 56˚F heading to the mid 70s, clear skies after a cold front changed the wind direction. I did not hear any rain last nigh so I'll have to cycle through the irrigation zones today to water the lawn and shrubs.

Insulation truck arrived yesterday and blew in a nice extra pink layer of insulation in the attic and insulated the garage doors. The animals sleep in the garage so this will make it comfortable for them in their old age.

Sadamo, what appliances do you have on the now scorned fossil fuels, my mom has just her water heaters and house furnace and can make $400 worth of propane (at todays prices) last a month to 6 weeks during the winter depending on the cold.

Morning all, cloudy today.
Got the lawn tractor out and ground up some leaves, then the little wonder to clear the driveway. Wish that machine had headlights as it was very dark by the time I was done.

Drew- When I see bark that looks like someone was trying to strip the tree, it's a dead Ash. I have a few dozen more large ones to go on the felling. A few more fell on their own.
Do not walk under these trees, I regularly see 20-30 foot branches sticking up like poles, dug deep into the ground.

Propane is over $3 here, don;t use much , just pool heater and for apartment.

Most of the leaves are down, fire bushes are almost at peak, will have to get pictures later.
Still need to get leaves off the front porch/walkway and back deck. May need to grind up some more of them.

Stay safe and be well,
