Don't do what I did ...forgot the plumbers putty for sealing the faucet base to the sink... Pita got done and looked at the container and sighed took it all back apart and put the putty in. A good plumber had told me this but the bad home owner forgot lol

Yeah I'm no plumber. But I get by. Haven't forgotten about our messages, life gave me a good roundhouse this week. Been trying to help my buddy's family these last couple of days. Will get back to you.

Good morning..

I can smell my breakfast cooking BACON & eggs

Coffee was already brewed when I made it to this side of the house...

I might have lucked out when I found "My Girl" BUT do not tell her....

She might be spoiled

Good Morning
My haircut place opens back up this morning. Check in on-line, wait in car until texted instructions to come in. Looking forward to getting rid of the mop my hair has become. Thinking about shaving off the rest of my beard for the Summer; shaved it to a goatee for mask wear a few weeks ago.
Hmmm...first step of whatever this new "normal" will be for me.

Good Morning Folks

Wildlife is making all sorts of noise. Sandhill cranes, ducks, geese and turkeys.

Sandhill cranes flew over here yesterday when I was cleaning up the backyard.

Ex MIL lived all over NC. And when I was stationed in the Tidewater area lived down in NC. Moved here from Asheville where I retied from the Navy a long time ago. After whats her name left I gave the kitchen table to the Admiral at his house in SD where we pheasant hunt. Her mother gave it to her but she sold my sons and I out for a price. Apparently everyone has their price. After a decade now I can chuckle over it. But nothing funny over the death of a family. But at least the table made in High Point, NC made it to a good home in SD, neither of my sons wanted it. Move it down the road...

Don't judge the red curtains the locals laugh about them Not a lot of entertainment in Eureka, SD until we show up anyhow though LOL.

Send a lot of Christmas cards and presents to land owners. Took us most of a dozen years to gain access to all the private land that we have access to chase birds on. Being retied military helps a lot there. And some great people, like much of the US.

Woodcock from Mn. and Wi. on garlic toast. With entails, anchovies, onions and a few other things that take it over the top. From a more than 150 year old French recipe.

No. Just no. Don't recall Gibbs rule #49 but I will keep them oak. Not going to to there. Walls and ceiling will remain white. And after the last lady that talked me into painting a wall in the dinning room a different color "accent wall" going back and do everything white.

She grew up in Madison, Wi. and my friends called her the hippie. Duh, danger Will Robinson Many are painting their 70's oak cabinets white, milk washed etc. Maybe. Struggle with that right now.

Might be able to get into Navy machinery grey though! Navy haze grey not so much. But turns out is a favorite for many as a neutral color. Nah, seen to much of it over the years.

Been around the breed for ~30 years now. Should say been owned by them. Tried going back to English Setter but just couldn't do it, long story but in wolf country not a good idea on a 1K yard plus runner.

Current Toller is 5 at the National Specialty when he was 9 months was the only one to earn his BRT in 2015.

Like I said been around the breed for almost 30 years back when the Toller Apple L-Server and usernet was around. So many of the breeders knew me although I am a hunter and not a breeder. At the bar the first night quite a few of the breeders were around me asking questions about hunting. One of them asked me why I picked the Toller over all the other breeds for hunting. Caught me off guard, kind of.

I thought about it a minute or 2 and finally said because I like my dogs like my women. Just a little bit naughty. Everyone of them laughed, all females, they got it. No explanation needed.

LIKE X infinity! Looked it up even though the Toller in my avatar has long since passed over the rainbow bridge. Young guy has long since torn it up. But was Snipers pacifier in close quarters he would mouth it and go to sleep. Was amazing.

One of the worst days of my life. Cried like a baby and make no apologies.

We had a lot of special memories.

Making new ones now. No regrets.

The day of real hardwood furniture is past. unafordable now days and cant compete with China. High Point was the hub of real hardwood furniture. Stanley would make samples of their stuff for the big furniture show every year. then higher ups got them for pennys on the dollar. ive got 3 hardwood bed room suits from them. as in a 9 piece solid cherry bedroom suit for a couple hundred bucks.

It’s windy as hell right now. Whitecaps. It’s just a shakedown run for the boat and my equipment. Not staying out long

PyritePirateBill · May 2, 2020

Good morning guys & gals! Slept in a little because I must've strained a muscle in my back yesterday loading the push mower in & out of my truck to go mow my daughter's lawn.
Gotta mow our lawn today and a few other chores outside. Suppose to be beautiful outside today. Stay safe and make the best of it!!!

Yup! Actually took the pic from the roof of the hospital on S Park St. One of the advantages of working nights.
You from around here?

I am, I lived in Madtown for 20 years - too long to admit to in graduating from UW. I lived on Jennifer street back in the late 80's. I grew up in New Richmond up in the NW corner of the state. Still come back to visit friends in the Waupaca and Weyauwega area. Miss the people not the winters.

MtnAltitude · May 2, 2020

Good morning all, beautiful morning here. Going to be a great day to continue the property work, more trees to cut down and canopy to raise. Then it will be time to clean the garage and get that back in order after a long snowy winter. Have a great day everyone. robssol, I forgot to tell you that I also lived in Deforest for a few years in the mid 70's when I moved back to WI from OH - my dad was a defense contractor, we moved a lot as a kid.

CVYota · May 2, 2020
