Good morning!!!!

most rv furniture is made by the same two or three companies and it's pretty dreadful.
meant to withstand dogs and kids, think Jeep vs Audi car interior, until you spend well into the multiple hundred thousands.
I replaced that couch, was originally a jackknife couch. This is a real folding sofa.

unfortunately Ford has a proprietary mounting plate for front van seats so the aftermarket selections of seats that fit
easily is slim. So I get by with an asst of back pillows. 2019 E450
find a massaging seat for that please...

When my D-I-L was alive I had to suffer with eating mushrooms at least 3 times a week. I DO NOT like them. Any of them, magic or not and avoid them like the plague.
Guess I am not going to cut the grass today. Don't feel like it. I know I am just being lazy, but at 77 years old I can and will be as lazy as I want. I still cover about 500+ feet per day.

69°F and .64 inches rain. Not nearly as much as Mostly.

Very nice HH yesterday, awesome food. My shrimp a big hit.

Need to make both a PO and dump run this morning.

Have some project pieces ready to paint, but will have to dry out from the rain.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

79F and mostly cloudy @ 12:15, calling for a high of 83F today. Increasing clouds with periods of showers this afternoon.

Have spent the last two days mostly working on bucket/grapple project for friend.

End plates for the mounting bar/bracket required a good bit of rework due to the difference between the old vs. new bucket shape/dimensions and orientation.

Those are done and welded on as of last night, along with a pair of chain hooks.

Still have to weld the back side of the toothbar and cut and weld some straps onto the front side of the mounting bar to secure it to the top of the bucket.

Unfortunately, I'm almost out of 75/25 shielding gas ... so a trip to the local welding place is probably on the menu for later today. They closed the store I normally used, so will have to see exactly where the other location is down in Canton, as I've never been there.

Did get all the lawn mowed a couple of days ago and the bird feeders refilled.

Also put 24 mealworms out for the bluebirds as Mom and Dad seemed to be very busy keeping the hatchlings fed.

Mixed up 6 more gallons of glyphosate, got 4 gallons applied in various places.

Had set live trap out back but not baited a couple of days ago, this morning there's a small(er ?) groundhog in it. Glad they are being so cooperative.

Hope everyone is having a decent Tuesday ... (y)

edged the flower gardens, this was the before shot out front.
need to spray some roundup on the driveway weeds.
the little round green plants are Irish ivy.

taking a break before heading back out to clean the rv.
I sent the slide out this morning so I could lube the tracks.

Then will turn on fridge and start prepping for short trip on Thursday.

Warming up but last nights rain was good for the plants.
Went to town and paid the property taxes for the year and also paid the farm insurance.

The old scam with left over material showed up again. Used to have ratty looking people showing up with "we are working the neighborhood and we have this or that left over"
This one was slick with a formally looking truck and too well dressed young man saying we are working up the street and the paving material had failed the compression test ......Truck did not have a DOT number. Said so it is free? Oh no. Sent him on his way. I guess some people fall for it

Determined TXV valve needs replaced on the geo unit. Not easy to get to, might have to pull the unit out.

Took one cat (Tiger) in to get nails trimmed. He did ok going in, but he suddenly threw up on the ride home. We were almost home.

Got to get ready to teach a class tomorrow night.

Stress cause the ralph episode.

I found a way for me to get to town AND get fuel for the mower without a license. E-trike. $1900.oo + tax + $30.oo motorcycle helmet = $2200.oo and I gotta assemble it myself. (Which means that Junior will assemble it).
That also means I can go to the dump.

Evening all!
72 with off and on showers all day and forecast for tomorrow and Thursday.
Thanks for all the anniversary wishes!
I finally got in the part I was missing for the gift I was making for my wife. She gave me so many wows when I gave to her today I couldn't keep track of them. Lol!
Hope everyone stays safe and healthy!
