    Evening all:
    Found this post that pretty well sums up why we respected Jim, wish he had kept his original Avatar.
    For the non Navy, snipes and bow hooks are part of a small boat crew.

    Well... I found an electrician that had access to a 200 amp breaker box he could get. So he came over on Saturday and I helped him get ready to install it tomorrow, Tuesday. We will be without electricity for at least four hours I suspect.
    My original electrician has been notified that we will no longer require her services. As far as I can tell she made no effort to find a box after the one she ordered was unavailable.
    In any case, fingers crossed, we will have electricity to the pole barn tomorrow.
    I've already been spending quite a bit of time out there, so having lights. etc, will only make it better.
    I'm just a little bit excited...

    Jim and I traded some Tacoma items back and forth. He sent me an old school Toyota Truck T-shirt, that I still have, it is a two sizes too small at the present time but if I can stay on track I will be that size by this time next year. I know our political views would be different, but I have realized, that if you let your political views be a basis for friendship you are missing out on the company of a lot of nice people. Our love of country and freedom views were closely aligned. I tried to meet with him when I was in Orlando back in 2015. We tentatively set something up but that was in the period when he decided to go dark.

    :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::thumbsup: And she replied.

    Rain is supposed to let up around 11am today. Going to take care of some alga mildew on the two north faces of the house. Also going to take my sons guitar to a Luthier to have a pickup installed.

    Jim brought a lot to the thread with his wit, wisdom and thoughts on hunting, dog training and raising them and keeping the kids off the lawn. Would be nice if he dropped in for a visit.
    Have a good day folks.

    Good morning. I have 800 hours of sick time that will go away in January when I retire. I got “sick” today (of work). My neighbor threw these metal table and chairs out to the trash. I pull them out and spray painted them this morning before the wind picked up.

    My son and his wife just moved into a house and have a bun in the oven. Money is a little tight for them. They wanted a patio set for the new house but really couldnt afford it. Wait until I deliver it today. My wife is going to buy cushions.

    I have a great memory except for the stuff I can’t remember. The problem is I don’t remember what I can’t remember. But I’m working on that. As soon as I remember what I can’t remember I’ll let everyone know if I remember. Happy Saturday everyone. And remember to…………?
