This one is a 6.5 grendel not a 5.56

This

 

Ahh I see . I thought the 6.5 was already completed and this was a new build.

 

So the girlfriend has her friends over tonight making 'cake pops' (whatever those are) so I was out hiding in the garage/workshop. I started out cleaning the workshop out and organizing my tools (I've been lazy lately and haven't been cleaning up after myself or putting tool back where they belong when I'm done). Spent a couple of hours getting everything squared away and was sanding down a paddle that I'm refinishing when my girlfriend yells from the house that she thinks she needs my help. So I unplug my radio and the tools that I was using, shut the lights off and close up the garage and go inside.
Turns out they needed me to build cooling racks for their cake pop things.

So back out to the workshop I go, haha!

 

Went last weekend... It's not too bad.. It's not one of their bigger stores, but has the typical stuff. Very limited handgun selection as of now.

 

Mornin' folks. Looks like a nice Saturday is on tap, at least in my neck of the woods. The truck just might get a bath. What's everyone have on plan for the day?

 

No snow?

 

Going to help a friend out and move his track bike for him and maybe clean out his garage some

 

For once, no

Morning everyone. Working till 1 today

 

Sad day.... Sold the tacoma.



Bought this to replace it.

 

Looks good, how'd you get 1/2 of a truck? Is that like buying 1/2 dozen eggs or 1/4 lb of butter?

 

Doesn't get the other half until he pays it off...

 

Dealer special.... Gave me half off.

It was a pain in the ass to register at the RMV/Inspections and emissions. Something about it being "unsafe".

 

It's true... Apparently that's how financing works in MA. Who knew!?

 

I cut up the tree that fell on my boat and fence now that the ins finally showed up. I also removed my hard top and installed my soft top and lastly I just did the first mow of the season. I am in the middle of my union break from raking dead spots to reseed.

 

I almost forgot I also dropped two trees to be safe. I didn't want them to fall on anything else

 

Truck is clean. Needs some wax and a better frame cleaning but I'll just enjoy not having grime. Have a long weekend next weekend so I think then is when I'll pull out the STi and start working through it's needs.

Have a wedding tonight (groan). Excited for my friend but I'm not a wedding guy. When you don't drink and don't really dance and dislike formal wear, there's little to enjoy.

What a beautiful day though. Started getting pricing for mulch.

 

Mmmm..ran to the recycle center to get rid of some leaves, threw the ladybug in the pool. Sat on the deck for a while eating and enjoying the sun. Getting cleaned up now for NE Metalfest tonight..Nuclear Assault, Testament, Exodus.

 

Billy, are you keeping that wood?
