Good (Friday) evening. Overnight Low of 4C and it got up to 18C during the day. Partly cloudy with the odd breeze.

Great day at the 'booth' and more help has arrived for tomorrow. My side of the referendum is 'on track' to resoundingly win, but, of course, we won't get 'cocky'. Even though the Voting Centre will close at 1800, we've still got a hand-shake agreement with the opposition to pack up @ 1600. (Honestly, the last two hours won't make any real difference and is 'dead slow' anyway)

So, an early start tomorrow as the Centre opens early @ 0800 and I'll be 'set up' LOOOONG before that, getting the best spots for my signage and 'booth'.

That's about it, take care all.

Drinking first cup of coffee. 46° with rain this morning. Heading to 54° with cloudy skies. Grocery shopping was good. Normally buy gas at Sams Club while shopping. They lowered price to $2.99. Cars were backed up at 10 deep. So went to Cider mill and got donuts and apple cider. Place was crowded. Got our stuff and drove around the area enjoying the nice fall weather and colors. Trip to Menards and gas this morning.

Everyone stay safe and well.

Good Morning All.

46 going to 73...plenty of sunshine headin' my way...Mr Bluebird's on my shoulder...

Buppies, sorry to hear about the wreck. Hope your calf gets better soon.

PJ, great trip and great neighbor story...makes you feel good.

Kyle, sorry protests at work...many folks are very misinformed about the world but feel compelled to just do something.

Roasted more coffee to give away, and worked on the chimney one last time.

good morning all
sorry you took a hit Buppies, I'm sure your truck was in nice shape too. More importantly, you are ok.

Paul, wonderful story. I bet you were mighty full after eating that steak. Sounds like a good business trip.

PT this morning, last for awhile. Need to see primary doc end of month and get new PT scrips.

another beautiful Fall day here, then heavy rain comes in tomorrow

pleased to report that new shocks made a significant difference in rv ride, enjoyed my ride home. Long day yesterday, came home
totally wore out. Treated myself with ice cream and went to bed.

Don, fingers crossed for your knee. That's next week?

Good Morning
48 with a high in the upper 60’s under a clear sky. Rain starts tonight, continues through Saturday.

Yesterday’s trip to Palm Beach was interesting, lots of thunderstorms from the Carolinas south, some in large lines. We passed over them with some slight diversions.
As to cabin altitude vs airplane altitude, here is a 7000’ cabin when the plane is at 43,000.

IMG_2859.jpg


You can see that the cabin has a 8.6 psi differential to the ambient pressure at that altitude.

I didn’t get home in time accomplish anything else than to get the trash and recycling to the street.
I’m very happy with the new Prius, it’s averaging 216 mpg. In just over 500 miles, it’s used less than 1/4 tank of gas.

Today will start shortly in the shop, finishing up the speakers and getting them out the door. Then lots of clean up, maybe some RC with my son, and music this evening.

Drew, Two weeks
Good Morning, A warm 71˚F before sunrise heading to the mid 80s with the winds shifting from the North at 2PM. Tomorrow morning the morning temps will be more Fall like - in the 50s.

Kilroy, I can mail your drills this morning PM me the info. I think I can get the shipping down to under $20 now that I reduced the size and know what to ask for - USPS flat rate box.

Popgadget the prime vehicles seem to be the most practical and versatile. An all Electric vehicle is OK if you can always charge at home and have a full charge when ever an emergency arises, and can stay in their limited range, but that would be impossible until your world gets smaller.

Good morning, the low temperature is 42 and going to a high of 54°F. 30% chance of showers. Wind NNW 6 mph.

The first tarp went on okay, and now the zero turn is under cover again. Z-turn, lawn sweeper, power washer and juniors' tricycle are all under cover along with some 16' lumber.

Going to attack tarp two today.

Tuesday the 17th looks like it might be a good day for tarp three, but that is a long way out.

mostly;
the plumber did come on Tuesday and determined that the quickest way to solve this problem would be to run a new 3" line from the sink with zero 90° elbows in it and a couple of clean out 'T's. He comes back next week to finish the job. Considering that he worked me in with everything else he has on his plate, I think he is O.K. This is also the same plumber that did the pipe work on my bathroom renovation. He only charges $80.oo/hr. He is also retired.

Have a safe day all

good morning, 49 going to 67 today

Stacked a couple of more loads of firewood yesterday and went to pick up from the orchard market.

The recent news from the Middle East brings up this amazing story of how the old country saved almost 15000 lives from certain death during WWII. I shared this with a couple of people.

Good Morning Guys,
Ct,43 to start going to 60 and sunny now !
Worked all day yesterday, am not used to doing that, came home tired but you get to see a lot while out on the road !Drews form of driving the roads would probably be much easier ! 😉

Kilroy, nice foliage shots, thank you! Good luck with the shipping on the hand drill ! My father had some of those, although I have no idea where they went !

Paul, great story about your trip, but the best was the story on the bull ! Thanks !

sticks are. Spent about 20 minutes with the chainsaw cutting some of the junk trees
BEF,be careful, I was pulling trees on the hedgerow and this happened ! 😂

One more quick favor — if you could put a drop or two of penetrant on the stuck drill where the shaft goes through the frame, the apes at the USPS bouncing it across the country should have it all freed up by time it arrives 🤣😂🤣😂
