    Dang It! Never got promised rain, promised drizzle, and it was 10* warmer than the hourly, with 90% humidity! So how bored was I when I ran out of putz?

    Only putz involving effort - hydroponics lines were clear, and I forgot that grows algae real well, so they got cleaned, one got sleeved with black drip line, the other replaced with it.





    I started putz at 10, and it's only NOON! What the heck to do - it looks like rain, rain is forecast, but radar is empty. Guess I will have to start one of those "put off" in the garage projects.....there is no before, grasshopper, only progress so far.




    Thankfully, I have a Dr. appointment in the middle of the day tomorrow!

    Ken,
    Just tell your wife that the telephone poles look too close for comfort. Don't let her tear off the outside mirror. Somehow I made it through and we have been married 45 years. Having her drive was as tough as the PT. I felt as a 43 year semi driver I could teach a few things. She did ok. I am still alive to talk about it.

    Good morning everyone!!

    Pool got opened yesterday...37 F this morning. We'll start getting it ready and hopefully next week temps look like it might be time to start up the heater.

    Today I start the demo on the old greenhouse - stripping it down to the studs and then our contractor will rebuild it.

    Be safe out there!!

    I'm in Alaska and even I read "37°F" and "pool" in the same sentence and think brrrr! :laugh:

    Looking forward to seeing the greenhouse rebuild...IIRC sounded like an interesting structure.
    :popcorn:

    Slow shift tonight, everybody busy playing war instead of moving my channel cargo. The one commercial contracted site mission delayed 24 hours for tail availabilty due to a maintenance issue. So, easy money taking your tax dollars tonight. Thank you BTW. ;)

    Got Stitch back from truck shop with some new stuff...
    Respect :oldglory: GBA

    Finally had the chance to hand wash my truck yesterday. It was probably only around 50*...I couldn't take another spray car wash!

    @MQQSE - stitch is looking good, Rob!! And I think you work plenty hard for your salary - no gripes on my end when you get some relative down time.

    @Harry2015 - it was too chilly for me to venture out to wash Odie yesterday. Hoping for some warmer NEPA weather next week.

    Thank you Mark. We got ourselves a bit of overcast/wet and chilly going on too; I keep checking overnight temps for shift and picking flannel over cotton short sleeves. Fickle Witch will always fickle. Here's to hoping she gives us both a break soon.

    Yes it was chilly but the garage is heated. So it was wash and rinse a section...go in the garage for a few minutes and repeat.

    Good Morning Folks :hattip:.

    The Fickle Witch is teasing us again with rain and chilly weather:eek:. The pool in our community will be opening on Memorial Day weekend but because it's not heated (to expensive for a handful of people to be using) there won't be anyone in the water until Independence Day weekend and even then they still bitch it's too cold.
    Kermit went through the car wash, brought him home, wiped him down, applied some wax and two hours later he had a green coat of pollen on him. Rain washed a lot off, but it left green steaks. But at least the wax was done.
    Have a great day and be safe.

    So we started with this.

    And did this.

    Not bad for a days work.
    Transplant a few plants out to the others and then fill and level today if the
    weather dries out some.
    Didn’t want to go bigger but with root situation I had no choice.

    Next project is to seal the driveway in a few weeks

    TY for the complement.
    As my BBQ friends will say it is not the pitt. It is all about the pitt master. Vertical smokers rock. I do not believe you are having any problems with what you are cooking but if you are look on Youtube for persons doing cooks on the same pitt as you use.

    Stitch is a sharp looking Tacoma. Where did you pick up the front amber light bar?

    The irrigation company should be here early today to open up my irrigation system. Let the high water bills begin.
