Welcome back Mostly.

A couple pounds of xxx bl@ck p0wder works on stumps, too (if it isn’t too close to any windows).

Mrs frowns upon such activities, which is why we now have our own mini-excavator

If that's all it takes to get a mini excavator in the barn I'm in

Rain is finally here. Long overdue. Picked up Cody at thee groomer and he is now ready for the mud from the rain.

Got the tires changed on the side-by-side, but had no luck getting the beads to seat. Both cans of starter fluid on the shelf were empty, and even wrapping two ratchet straps around the circumference of the tire didn't work. I'll either find a tire shop in town that can do it, or go in and pick up more starting fluid.

Last time I tried starting fluid, it didn’t work, the formulation was changed so it burned slower. The air tank always works.

Spent part of today taking apart a damaged bass speaker cabinet I bought used. Seems it took a tumble during delivery (failed "The UPS Test") and broke the driver off the high frequency horn. Easy fix to replace it, but aggravated that I have to in the first place.

Out of curiosity was the driver an Eminence APT series?
I had several damaged like that before I stopped using them. It’s a shame because they performed well for the price point.

We got our first rain in over a month. It didn't last long and now it feels humid. I was going to wash the truck this morning to guarantee rain but the car wash was broken. The grass crunches when you walk on it except where it is in the shade.

We are eating red raspberries and sugar peas from the garden. The spinach and lettuce are about done. The lady at the farm stand says strawberries are almost done. We could have eaten more. They did have home grown sweet cherries.

Drew, I thought of several responses to your very contentious post but I decided to keep my mouth shut instead.

Just say NO to politics!

I have not read any of it. If it's contentious, I'll stay away.
be there, done that, that was no fun
we don't come here to get depressed or ticked off...

Tesla is producing as fast as they can in their Austin Giga Plant just 30 minutes away.

I thought Kyle's Daughter might be interested in taking the training at ACC.

Tesla START Manufacturing at ACC | Austin Community College District

Austin Community College District and Tesla launched the new Tesla START Manufacturing Program at ACC. This 14-week intensive training program is the first of its kind in the nation and will provide students hands-on learning and essential skills for a career in the dynamic manufacturing sector...

I do not consider it contentious. I considerate it informative since several members have had a Tesla for a long time and some have just bought recently and all the questions asked are answered honestly.
