Good Morning everyone

 

Thursday farm pond fishing update:

Nothing!

 

Welcome to rhe thread.

No. These are salmon, lake trout, steelhead, and walleye. All are great tasting.

Oh to be your age again and to be able to do "not much" in the yard.

Good morning from the thumb in Michigan where the weather yesterday was in the mid 70's. Back home it was around 100. Off to the farmers market today.

 

morning gang. Yup my pill box says S

What lock did you get?

You spend all your time cooking Or going out to help someone, so just no time to work in your yard

Make it a good day

 

Thought I would remove the mirrors and try for a more streamlined look.

 

Ummmmm... is that smart? To say nothing of whether it's legal...

 

Still had fun, didn’t ya

 

Yeah, no it’s not smart or legal. This is the result of a fight I had with a car wash. It ripped it off. I just thought I would try some humor. Car wash paid for damages and I have an appointment at the dealer to get a new one put on. Cheers.

 

Ya got me, but I’m old, honey where’s my glasses

 

You don’t realize how much you count on those mirrors until one is gone.

 

I need 3 mirrors, and a backup camera, and I still turn around

 

Morning all:

That stinks, I think all the car washes around here state "not responsible for damage".
Somewhere, way back in this thread, I had posted about hearing a scraping noise while going through a car wash with the rotating side brushes, got out after going through and noticed a long scratch along the passenger side of my 78 Ford truck. The owner of the carwash happened to be there and I told him about it, his reply was----"that didn't happen here"!
Kind of PMO, but the truck was no longer pristine and had higher milage, chalked it up to S*** happens, would have been a different story had the truck been almost new.
This happened out near Carlisle while either going to or from the Carlisle flea market, not local, note to self, NEVER stop at that particular car wash again!

 

Just got back from a morning walk…hot! Another 100* day! I really feel sorry for the firefighters! They are doing great in this heat though. Just saw we have 8 fires now in Colorado. Yep we are in prime fire season. Sadly at least 1 was arson.

I think it’s another man cave day. Just too hot and a bit smoky outside.

Have a beautiful day everybody! If you get the chance, get out and get some vitamin D!

 

Good Morning Porch Pals & Sue! Well, little project putzes got me almost to 5K steps yesterday, which I am going to try to make everyday if it kills me! Ran out of putz time. Try again today. Maybe if I get everything moving, it'll start to work again!

 

Park Fire has gained quite a bit of containment, over 400,000 acres now.

Afternoon all:

Decided to wax the Tacoma today, why I don't know, it's hot and humid ! Got everything waxed except the bed sides, they can wait till tomorrow.
A storm went through and had a torrential downpour at the house, left to go downtown and about 1/2 mi down the road, the road was completely dry.
Then the power went out well after the storm, got a call from PPL that it should be restored by 11pm , must have been something simple and only lost power for about 20 min.
Just another day in paradise!

That's a lot of acreage burnt Duane, says only 27% contained, stay safe.
