50+ thread

Good morning 6:30 it was 45* here no need for a jacket, well would be nice but will take it! Have to see if it really will hit 70* today hard to believe.

I still have 2 car wash passes from Kwik Trip, too late to use one today every Tom, Dick, Harry and Betty will be in line. Wisconsin's greatest contribution to the world as far as I'm concerned is Kwik Trip. They are expanding here and not fast enough as far as I'm concerned.

That just plain sucks Bob and hope that is the last time this year until December that you have to drive in that white chit!!

Opens next weekend here. I'll likely skip it because everyone else will be out and I don't like the crowds. After opening weekend seems like 3/4 of the people never go out again. That high muddy boiling water doesn't help either and is enough to keep me off the cricks too. Damn I'm getting picky as I get older.

 

Most of our Kwik Trips don't have car washes. Maybe 1 or 2 up by Madison.

 

Staining cabinets isn't very fun.

 

Good Morning everyone !!

Light rain /drizzle currently until noontime and cooler temps with 52 deg right now . hoping rain stops before the car show I can enjoy it !!

 

Finally I get to sit for awhile.
Top cabinets are stained.
Need to do lowers now.
Joy.

 

Morning all, sore from moving furniture around yesterday by myself. But the back held up!

Where did you see this requirement? You and Greg are the only 2 that do that weird, truck washing thing.

 

Yeah those fish have seen every presentation there is at one time or another. For what ever reason I seemed to have my best luck with small (size 18 or smaller) gold head bead hare's ear nymphs for the average trout there. My largest were usually caught on larger deer hair\bead head sculpins drifted on the bottom in the deeper pools or undercuts on the banks. For dries the CDC patterns fished in the film seemed to work best. Until that it warms up and those "tube hatch" starts and all those people start coming down in rubber inner tubes that will usually put the fish back down. Good luck even with the limestone creeks here I miss that river!

They started in LaCrosse which is still the epicenter, some around there and in the rural areas here have sitdown seating and small restaurants. They have started replacing a lot of the smaller older ones here with car washes and everything but the restaurants. The expansion seems to be to the North and Superior Wi. now has a HUGE one as do more and more places.

At work we call Eau Claire Hospital and Clinics NW Wi. and La Crosse Hospital and Clinics SW Wi. Sometimes I forget there is a lot more to Wi. South and to the East of La Crosse. Hope you get some more stores in your area soon. When I first moved here the closest one to me offered unleaded fuel in all calibers but they switched not long ago to only 92 octane as an unleaded option.

 

So no options.
Diesel and super.

 

Afternoon/mornin time zone appropriate. Where's the sun? I'm tired of grey to black skies.

 

I slept in.
Ive been ............. tired. Long couple weeks.
Today is suspension day.

 

..morning
Slept 10 hours (well not all at once at our age) I needed it.
Found shingles next to my house. Took about a min to investigate before I took a happy breath.
Came off the shithole next to me. So I picked up all the pieces and threw them back in her yard.
Wanting to do stuff around the house but still snow.
At least my time is mine.

 

Enjoy.
At least you're not roofing.

 

Time to stain base cabinets.
Oh
Joy.

 

Once it's done it's done and you can relax look at it and take the pride in knowing you could do it.

 

Cleaned brush.
Only 2 left.
I do most of everything myself. If I had the money I'd call THE GUY.

 

Ditto

 

Same here. Plumbing is my down fall so "The Guy" gets a call now and then. It is funny how "The Guy/Gal" can never seem to afford "The Guy/Gal" for their own stuff isn't it.

 

Go 20v best bang for buck and power weight balance

 

So this followed me home I am keeping it lol first guy that wants to bitch it is made in Taiwan can hand me 2 k to get a better quality one ! But it did come with all the goodies and more .
