    Thanks, it’s kinda funny, went all over the place with just a county map and a compass, never gave it a thought. Now there’s a “grid “ , you get a sense of how dependent on it I’ve become o_O

    NAP Town! There's an annual event where Eastport succeeds from the country and becomes the Maritime Republic of Eastport ( MRE). There's a tug of war across Spa Creek where the good people of Annapolis try to "pull" the MRE back into the country. Chesapeake Light makes an awesome tear drop camper kit that looks like an upside down wooden hull. It ain't cheap...

    That would look so good encased in a clear urethane for a counter top.

    There actually is such a thing. 5x10 slabs start at about $10k

    Fresh off the lake they won’t be that bright. Rough agates have a waxy sort of look to them and can be semi translucent. So look for stuff that looks like dirty reddish or honey/caramel brown candle wax. Lake Superior agates have crazy banding to them and are easy to spot once you get an eye for it. MT agates are a bit tougher as their banding isn’t as wild.

    I actually used this popular upper cylinder lube
    And it has a really nice grape smelling odor from the tail pipe

    We’re getting a little nervous, this campground is way off any paved road or improved dirt road. It’s all beach sand dirt trails, just barely wide enough for two vehicles.

    I need an opinion / advice from the group. As everyone knows I walk every morning for health reasons. Usually walk around 6:30 - 7:00 AM. My neighbor directly across the street is a cop , he gets dressed in the morning with no blinds and the lights on. You can see he’s completely naked and today I could see him put his underwear on. I’m not trying to look, but it’s dark outside and he sticks out like a billboard. I find it very odd, and the school bus goes by around the same time. I just don’t understand this

    When he’s at work, go hang a blind on the outside of his window…

    Good morning and happy Friday.

    There's a TEAMS notification about a mandatory dept meeting with HR at 3pm.

    Gee, that doesn't sound ominous.

    You'd think that a cop would realize this.. I hope that he isn't a voyer or anything weird like that. Is that the same idiot that set the telephone pole on fire last year?
