BEF - glad you found some pictures. Make sure your family knows where they are and it's great you can scan them for everyone.

My Dad many years ago asked my brother to send our pictures to him so he could annotate them.
We have looked at his house multiple times and they are nowhere to be found.
Always wondered if his GF just threw them out.
So no pictures from when I was about 4, him 8, until late high school. No vacation pictures, nothing.

I told my family i took them to scan. I usually return them, but now, might just hold onto them. I asked the family who would want the very old pics from my Great Grandmother, taken late 1800's into early 1900's. I have scanned those, but would like someone interested in family history to take them, as I doubt my boys will be interested.
Most of the pics from the 70's were taken with very bad cameras, but in the 80s they got better.

The water line company at the farm brought in equipment today to put in another water line crossing for us. I took tractor down tuesday, saw it wasn't done yet. They bury a culvert and put the pipe through the culvert so we can get over it. This pipe is like a big garden hose, if they don't pump, it will lay flat and you can drive over it. In this pic the orange is the end of one of the crossings, the new crossing is further down this line.

on this day nine years ago I was seriously pissed at a big black bear in Washington NC.
wrecked front of my truck night before after dinner with friend, luckily able to drive home and did a little temporary
fender repair with the Kubota
hopefully never do that again.
that was most expensive dinner yet with a 1000 deductible
this gen Ram has frame rails all the way up to the front, just bunted that bear off with a loud metallic twang
of that metal bumper getting rung pretty well

69°F and .65 inches rain

Another good day mowing yesterday, just not as much as anticipated. Went out as soon as dry enough and made progress A couple hours. Took a break for lunch. Just as we were sat down to eat got a txt from LA friends asking to meet them for early dinner, and their treat. Would have been impolite to refuse. Do lunch turned into just a break as I figured I could get another couple hours mowing. Except I didn’t. Mowing back out by the road and one of my neighbors pulls up. Not a short visit. Dwayne is pretty excited he just pulled the switch on a new Silverado EV. Should get it next week.
Then I decided I need to leave earlier in order to refill diesel. Factor in time for a shower, mowing over for the day.

Strange day ahead as we pickup Canadian friends for airport later this morning. Maybe I’ll squeeze an hour this morning.


Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day
