Good morning folks...going to see if I can't get those new flood lights wired in this morning and maybe trim up the front yard some more.

 

Pardon me for saying but that just sounds like crap (on my phone ). I had to put the phone in a coffee cup to get any kind of bass sound out of the tinny speaker. I'm afraid you're just going to have to bring the car out here and let me listen (drive) it in person!

 

Nice when things go as planned....

 

So we bought the house new in 2013 and , since then, I've replaced the backyard flood light bulbs numerous times. They were these small cylindrical things that hardly anyone stocked, expensive and just a pain in the butt to change. So, during the swap over to conventional bulb light and pulling down the old fixtures, I discovered 2 things. The clowns that installed the original fixtures didn't ground the light boxes and they didn't knock the paint off the ground wires so, if they were grounded at all, it wasn't very good. Now I'm no electrician, but I do enough of this stuff at work to know if the circuit is not fully complete then things just aren't going to work as designed.

 

Good morning
Slamming parts.


Junk,,,, took a torch and 5 tons on the press.



Back together and down the road.

 

New project.
Generator box

 

sore throat SOB!!

 

It's funny how the most succulent looking plants have the worst hide ripping thorns and stickers in them. Everything in the desert either bites, sticks or stings but I wasn't expecting it from my domestic plants. Now I know every plant in my yard does too!

 

Do any 50+ or any man for that matter, listen to a woman???? Neighbor has NEVER trimmed a tree - tried to explain to him how to do it - did he listen - NO!!! Almost burned up another neighbors electric pole saw. and told him, the thing would fall his direction - did he believe me, no, and guess where it fell???

afternoon all

Glad you aren't my neighbor!!! No noise before 8:30!!!!

don't encourage him!!!!

Don't give 110% for that place... give what everyone else does!!! If it means not injuring your shoulder, then slow down!!!! From the sounds of it, they don't deserve the extra work or dedication!!!!

From the sound of it, you guys need a 24/7 baby sitter to keep you from doing things you shouldn't

nice

poor deer

 

Well I have been told by more than one lady that I am trainable Just can't seem to find the right one though....

Day 10 of hunting on the plains, have tightened the belt 2 notches and ready for the 3rd. Considering how well we eat doesn't make sense. Boned out 6 ruff grouse from Wi. for dinner last night and the Captain and Admiral worked their magic with apples and spices in the frying pan. Along with a wild rice dinner with rice from Mn. Desert was fresh baked chocolate chip cookies and ice cream. Followed by well aged blue cheese, smoked almonds and Port what a great combination.

This year need sunscreen taking a break again in the middle of the day because of the heat in the 70's again. Some days hurt a lot more than others and hard to shoot a bird with tears in your eyes but not crying, just getting the dust out. Was hunting on private land today and the neighbor came out to check us out. By the time he left we had permission to hunt his land. No one else has asked to hunt it and we are the only ones so far this year. Not sure why LOL...

 

How big was the cam in that beast?

 

What? Sorry, hard of hearing...



Actually, I always listen to my wife. She's a woman. Does that count?

 

I grew up in NoCal dealing with trees, firewood, logging, etc. If a person doesn't know how to "read" a tree and they start messing with it, it quite often ends in disaster. I have one oak tree and I want to keep it stunted so it doesn't get out of hand to deal with. I didn't need a pole saw this year, but I'm pretty sure I'll need one next year. I'd like to keep it no more than 12-15 ft tall so I keep topping it.

 

Afternoon yall.
