    The track doc and his family are good friends of ours. I give him :censored: about his orange suit when I see him, he tells me to look at the back, where it reads, "DOCTOR", we laugh, and go on about our day...

    Find someone to install a chemical ground.

    Installed them on some lightning protection grids for salt water disposal sites out in the Permian basin

    Since we're so busy today, here's something for you to laugh at me for.....

    So, how was branch removal here at Heck's Half Acre? Well, remember, around here, it's a matter of scale compared to a lot of you!

    Since I can't elevate properly, here's a before and after to see what went. ONE branch over the shed and encroaching on the greenhouse. If it was afternoon, you would see the solar and vent well shaded.

    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    Same tools, just at a reduced scale!

    [​IMG]

    OK, it's down....

    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    Got to make that mess fit in the wagon! Two loads...

    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    And dump it all on the sidewalk.

    [​IMG]

    :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:Just kidding! That's my neighbor across the street - lost that branch in one of the storms this week. This is REALLY my pile!

    [​IMG]

    You can't see the branch, but this shot makes it easier to see the NOT branch.

    [​IMG]

    All good, nothing broken, and the sun shines on the solar. Then I tripped on the garage door rope, hit the shelf and concrete, bruised my ribs, and mowed the yard.

    I’ve had my truck for about 2500 miles now and the service light came on. So, like I usually do, I had the tires rotated and then I changed the oil in my driveway. I checked all the fluids and everything looked good. I decided to check the air filter before I buttoned everything up….then I found this in the air box. It feels synthetic, almost like acrylic yarn. Has anybody seen anything like this before?

    I didn’t find any evidence of droppings, or a urine smell. But that doesn’t mean it wasn’t at one point. It had about 34k miles when I bought it a few weeks ago and I guess that’s the one place I didn’t open up and look at.

    Shoutout to all the “must get ahead at all cost” drivers out there. The way you brazenly hammer the gas just to cut me off at the last possible moment provides a wonderful opportunity for me to train evasion maneuvers and driver awareness during my commute. :turtleride:

    If you're taking up the left lane, then you're the problem. If you're driving the speed limit or under, then you're the problem. I had cheesesteaks in the truck on the way home, I was super hungry, so every second counted. If you were one of the many in my way, including Cedar Park PD, I'm not sorry.


    Not saying you're the problem.

    In this instance I was merging onto the highway off a frontage road. I know left lane etiquette. Alright alright alright!
