    Thanks Carl, you would have gotten along with him real well. He was an avid hunter, but loved turkey more than deer hunting. He was always practicing his call for that big Tom.

    Thanks Rob.

    A little something every chance we get.
    :proposetoast::proposetoast: Congratulations to all parties involved!!

    It's kind of frustrating to find that people we know and like, who have passed, or simply move, leave behind these secrets of themselves that we wish we knew - when we knew them! Conversations never had. Condolences.

    I will certainly be posting pics of the stable on hand in the hangar. It's show season, so they come and go. Which means, I can probably polish a lot!

    Had a thought on my errands yesterday - needed to replace MORE drips already in the greenhouse; they seem to clog up so fast for no reason. Decided I'm going to double up, and cut the top runs in half, so I got the two fittings I needed at Lowe's. Simple enough, just couple hours of putz. One run becomes two, and a little more pressure in the line.

    When I use spray paints, it can be green! At least this summer, it doesn't look like veggie torture!
    I am contemplating changing out the 63% shade cloth again, since everything "supposedly" wants full sun!

    Good morning. Stayed busy yesterday. Received a favorable price for the holly bush trimming and told them to proceed. Smoked up a couple of stuffed peppers, for me, and some burgers for the wife and son. Tossed a couple of chicken sausages on the smoker because I could. Today is planting plants out front and in the garden.

    Go figger' Department...

    I needed that Curt bracket, right. It's $1.99 most places.
    Amazon has it, free shipping, but not Prime. Would come mid-June.
    Shows as stock at Tractor Supply, and I'll be next to 2 while erranding. Neither has any Curt product.
    So, Home Depot shows it for $1.99 too, but not at the closest one. But, for that price. I can have it delivered to the store, and get it in a week. OR, I can have it delivered. To home. FREE SHIP. And it's here, and installed.

    20230526_110330.jpg

    $1.99 plus tax. In a box, with all that packing, dropped off by FedEx.
    The other week I needed that $4.00 faucet part? Same thing. I bought 2 of those, because I'd at least need another sooner or later.
