Our daughter in Vilnius loving the place:

: I’m loving it here. The art. The quiet streets. The colors. The entire vibe.
: I wish I could stay longer but I’ll definitely be back.

Morning all, rain is on the way.
Movie night went really well, food is all gone. Family and dog still in sleep mode.

Alien-our thoughts for your wife to get a good eval.

BEF - we have a crazy neighbor, lots of trees between us and he's not a bother as long as we stay away.
Hope they back off and respect the actual property lines and mellow out.

Scaredy - sorry to hear about the the issues, hopefully it will work out, know the feeling and empathize.

PopG - so glad everything went well, a lot to coordinate and prepare. Big day with great results always makes the effort worthwhile.

Night shot of the AtmosFX stuff, screen on the right, blow up 3d ghost projection on the left.
The Ghost blow up has a leak, so will need to fix that. Gotta go get the rest of the stuff in before the rain starts.

Change in plans (what's new?)
Taking wifey out for a while...no idea where we'll go or end up...but I'm sure it'll cost me money (i.e. Walmart)

Well, no snow in the forecast and temperatures should be in the upper 50's for the next week or so.
While we're out, I need to get winterized windshield washer fluid (for the tractor and the truck) and one or two tubes of grease

Ken has the most well entertained squirrels and deer in Eastern PA.
would be fun to turn around at end of movie and see a whole line of deer sitting watching the movie
Almost like Thomas does every night.
Now to design the one button put away model

if you teach electronics to drink, they will soon learn to smoke.

71° and .01 inches rain.

In 2007 I installed 11 outside rated fluorescent fixtures. They all hang from the 4x10 roof beams. The hangars are a galvanized metal, 2 piece affair that hasn’t weathered well. Some failing

A couple weeks ago, I determined a method to fix, replacing the hangar with a U shaped bracket made from 1x1/8 flat aluminum.
Yesterday we replaced 3. Takes about 1 1/2 hours to take down light, remove old hangar, clean light, fab & install new bracket, and reinstall fixture. My above grown work is slower these days

Finished day with run to brewery for resupply.

Football today.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

59F and gray. It's gray because we are under an air quality alert.

My neighbor is decorating for Halloween. He strings fishing line between the trees then hangs ghosts and bats and such from the fishing line. We always enjoy it although we never get any trick or treaters. Some people are really into Halloween.

If you're interested in what Florida looks like after the storm.

SC I don't have any advice but I am thinking of you.

69F and sunny @ 12:30, heading up to a high of around 77F.

Absolutely beautiful day yesterday, high hit 70.9F.

Ten Day predicting reasonably nice weather (although rain on some days) and warm temps (60's/70's for high temps) through the entire period.

Collected up a bunch of compostable stuff in the bucket of the Kubota and took it to the compost pile first thing. Then did the same with the dump cart which The Woman had filled.

Ran out of gas up at the compost pile, had to walk back down to the house. Dispatched Woman to go pick up gas and diesel, but before She left I put what little gas there was in the can into the Cub and got it moved back down to the house.

While She was gone I loaded some 5 gallon buckets in the dump cart.

Refueled Cub and Kubota after She got back.

Woman worked most of the afternoon on cleaning out better than a dozen buckets and a bunch PVC pipe and fittings from over in the barn. PVC fittings will need boxed up today and moved back over.

I then spent the rest afternoon and evening organizing tools and supplies and materials onto two of the work tables.

Plus I also pulled the rest of the ballasts in the 8' fluorescent fixtures and got some of the knockouts punched out and romex clamps installed. Those all got put on a pallet of OSB and plywood and tarped.

Also worked on cutting the bad parts out of a long braided rope and melting the ends. Some that will be used to replace the polypropylene pull ropes on the overhead doors which have deteriorated due to UV damage. Managed to slice my hand with the razor knife somehow while doing that.

Floor in the barn is so dry that driving over it turns it into a fine dust about like confectioners sugar ... which is several inches deep in spots. My dark brown work boots now appear to a light tan. Drives me nuts.

Another large bowl of chili with shredded cheddar cheese for dinner.

Then some more of "The Rings of Power" on Amazon Prime.

Agenda today is back to working on the gutters.

Hope everyone is having a great Sunday ...
