60+ year old thread.

So after the two beers you had to sleep in I see.

 

Travir, we have seen those events from different perspectives. I had been released from active since the early days of the war, and was sensitive to events and public comment. Please re-read my previous post about red paint splashed on returning Vets, then consider whether the narrative has actually changed. Different perspectives, no fowl.

 

And I readily admitted that some vets had bad experiences at the hands of bad actors... but late in the war I traveled extensively in uniform and was never disrespected. Bad things happened, but they are being made to look like common practice now... and they weren't.

 

Good morning fellow Porchatonians!! Another day begins.

 

Good morning, all. Thunderstorms and a high in the low 70's today in the DC area.

Another lazy day. One load of towels, already in the dryer. Lots of guitar practice today. I am really trying to move from a beginner to intermediate level playing the guitar.

 

Good Morning Porch Peoples! Going to do a quick wiring side job for one of Carol's friends, then back to yard & garden stuff. Now that the wind has died down, might be a good day to light up a couple umbrellas!

Are we there yet, @ImpulseRed008 ?

Top of the morning Porchatonians…

Decided to splurge and went to Harbor Freight.
Doing a lot of small engine stuff and spark plugs are always a issue so,
I went and got a spark plug cleaner.
Had one 30 years ago but became obsolete with the newer vehicles.
Works like it did back then too.
The worse spark plug I could find




So, I built a winch setup for my garden tractor/ snowblower. Don’t know if I posted pics. And my angle grinder has a broken slide switch lock. So I had to hold that switch on throughout every cutting step.
It’s been broken for years. Well, I had enough of that shit and got my self another one with a trigger switch. It’s also longer and lighter. Spent 10 min last night trying to find a piece of metal to test it out.
Seem to work pretty good and much more comfortable.
Think this weekend I’m going to unwrap the boat and see if I can wake the sleeping summer fun..
Always a crap shoot after sitting 6 months…
Raining and cool again.
It’s gotta break soon.
Be safe all

 

Kurt, I have a roll up awning being delivered on Monday and would be interested in your lighting set up. The manufacture wanted $350 for a dimmable white LED add on. Not going to happen. For a lot less than that I can add a Phillips HUE RGB outdoor light strip set up.

CONGRATULATIONS!! Could not happen to a nicer person. Do you have a retirement trip planned?

So cute. Another one to spoil.


Heading over to HD this morning to buy some vinyl siding blocks, couple pieces of rebar, a 4X4, some hanging planter brackets, and some pellets for the Smoke Fire. Wash day for bedding today and lunch with my cousin and her husband. I have a few projects to do around the Ponderosa this weekend. LOL Everyone have a great Friday.
