60+ year old thread.

Almost 4pm and it is 96° outside.

 

I got the damaged area of my mobile home foundation fixed, I have to cover the area now with some painted CDX plywood and notch one end where it meets the water heater pressure release drain pipe. I have to cut the old plywood back a little to get a straight edge. Less than 8' of rot and ant damage. Only $135 to have a guy fix with materials. Very lucky.

That is great news Duane!

Really happy that it was not extensive damage.

You and Repo can take a hike and celebrate or take the money you saved and buy another stove.

 

A friend of mine sent this picture and I thought of Mike @Tacoma Mike.

I'm sure he gets all kinds of dumb s#!t about customers cars

 

Afternoon all:
That's what the truck had on also, they didn't look too bad Gary, just not a good job of putting them on. My buddy could either put them on in vinyl or paint them on, this guy can do the intricate detailed hand painted pinstriping that you see on custom cars and motorcycles, not many around anymore that can do that by hand.

Just saw the above post, THAT IS FUNNY!

 

Thank you Gary.
Saw these day hiking on a backpacking trip with some friends.

And the sad part about that Carl is it isn't just women that do stuff like that. I have a neighbor who didn't know what the bright blue headlight on the dash was for. He thought it just meant his lights were on. Gotta love people and he is a college gradgeate.

 

Here's one for us youngsters...

 

Beautiful flowers.

I can tell you understand about taking time to smell the roses ( and wild flowers).

 

Thank you. Only pic I took over the weekend, even had a couple stoves I left out. I think there was only one or two fish at the lake we stayed at. Watched two guys circle the lake, didn't see them land anything. Yahoo's yelling part of the day when they were on the ridge above the lake. The lake was a little under 7500'.

Evening all:
Getting there but !
Ordered coverking seat covers for the front seats, had them on the "09" and they seemed to hold up pretty well, got them on sale and free shipping. Just ordered vent shades also, what a project trying to figure out which ones fit the way they have them listed. I ordered ones from advance auto that the site said don't fit my Tacoma, two other sites say they do, will see! Also added some car wash to the order to get me above $50 and eligible for a 20% off code, pretty well ended up with the car wash for free, and the order also qualified for free shipping.

 

Happy Independence Day to y'all - 'specially our veterans - we wouldn't be celebrating if it weren't for their sacrifices. And, lets not forget their spouses they served and made significant sacrifices too. Be safe and enjoy the day, just remember (especially those sittin' on the front porch) that if you drink a fifth on the fourth, you won't go forth on the fifth. For us that should probably read the fifth, sixth, seventh - you get the picture. Life just isn't the same as it was when I enlisted. . .

 

Hoping everyone has a Happy and safe Independence Day.
Thank You all who served.

 

Haven't been over here for awhile - "retirement" is exhausting, must not have the hang of it yet.... We once camped up on the banks of Whitefish Bay and watched while our part seal kid played in L. Superior (with others like him, burrr). He brought back a Canadian kid who said they always came to the American side "to celebrate America Day!". Apparently we had better fireworks. I live too far away to plant flag on my dads resting spot - but he knew first hand what "America Day" was about.

 

Happy 4th. Thank you Vets. Let's keep America, America, unlike most other countries.
Duane

 

LOL Good one

 

Happy Birthday America!

Land that I love!

 

Morning all:
Was just watching a news clip where an adult male grabbed a "MAGA" hat off of a kid and then threw a drink on the kid.
Keep hearing "unhinged" and "derangement syndrome" talked about, we all have our opinions but some of the stuff that is going on is way out of line!
I wonder if that same guy would have done the same to a Warlock or a Pagan wearing their colors, that may not have ended up too well for him!

 

FYI, Giant Food, has whole brisket on sale for $1.99 a pound.
