You be careful with that thing.

Ha, i just came in. Spent 8.5 hours in the shop. Straight. Table wing was a booger to get level. I got to kinda level, but it became a quest. I eventually won. What i didn't do today was trim hedges, bushes, or trees.

Got a real good start on the fence. It's completed up to the point that i need to get some hardware. Next time i go out there it will be completed. I was going to epoxy it together but i decided to leave it where i could take it apart if i ever had the need.

Evening ya bunch a brainiacs, maniacs and reprobates.

I just about hate driving anymore Don, thanks to people like that. I love the ones that drive in the passing lane but are going slower than the ones in the right lane.

That would be me taking exit 9w.

 

[FutureCityCats]

Fixed a hole at the end of my driveway today. Put a piece of 020 sheet metal in the hole with a 1 ft radius curve on it to patch the rusted out drain pipe. Filled with river gravel and a bag of asphalt. Run over it with the car a couple of times and looking good. Been wanting to do that for a month. FCC.

Back from the Karate tournament, did not go to the grill out, it is about 110° out there right now. Just sitting back in the cool 75° in the house. Ate dinner and am just settling in for the couple of drinks that will follow before watching whatever the the wife and daughter want to watch tonight. If it is a foo foo film, I will take a nap until it is over and watch something scary afterwards.

Don be careful out there, the road is full of the me generation who think everything is only for them including the road.

She has a lot of ignorance in her. She and the leftists are over the top. They will not win an election very soon unless it's in a district where the leftists hold a population majority.

She has a home near one of my employees. Ithaca, New York. That area makes Berkely look conservative

 

[55wildcat]

70.2° F here at 7:10 am and cloudy.

Caulked the shower corners in the master bedroom. Ended up using the hair dryer to get it dry enough to calk.

You all have a good Sunday.

 

[_Rooster]

86°➫ 108°F Our monsoon high is shifting westward and be centered directly over the state. This will limit thunderstorm development with clear skies and light winds. I can see the drying this morning. Mountain visibility approaching 80 - 90 mi. Excessive heat forecast at least thru hump but the Tuesday afternoon peak also has been lowered to only 115°F.

Good morning D

 

[AustinTXCat]

Good morning from ATX. We're at 79°F. Anticipating 104°F or higher today. We may catch a break come Tuesday. I hope so. Actually, unlike Florida, local air temps are fairly bearable in the shade.

Mowed front yard yesterday. Rode bicycle to credit union and cashed in some change from the other stash not found on streets, car washes or near bars. Hit up Chick-Fil-A and grabbed take-out for wife and I.

Working more stuff later today.

I've got nothing else. Y'all behave.

Morning D. Greetings from the shanty.


More coffee.............................

Florida has the worst climate of all the places that I have lived (Maryland, Kentucky, Indiana, Texas, North Carolina and Florida).

 

[ymmot31]

Good morning. Woke up to coffee brewing. Good start.

Gotta make an early morning run to the hardware store. Looks like it will be Lowes.

I'm going to finish my rip fence today and I'm thinking i should go ahead and build a speaker too before i get started on the table. I have all the makings for a center channel speaker to go along with the other two I built. It should only take an hour or so to cut it out and glue it together.

@UK82 I replaced my old Pioneer VSX3300 with a Kenwood KR V5550. Wow, what a difference. The kenwood is rated at 100w/channel and the pioneer was 80. If I turn this one up a quarter of the way it's blasting. Also, this one has A/B switches that allow you to play two sets of speakers. One, or the other, or both at the same time and all get the full 100. $25 well spent.

I'll see you fine folks this afternoon, have a good day.

I hear ya.

Last October when mom got sick, I visited central Florida. Around 10:30 pm on the final night of the trip, I stood on the porch outside my brother's house in Orlando and sweat and sweat and sweat. Crazy. Humidity was not so bad while visiting last month, but still sticky and just generally miserable. Mosquitoes were out in force.

November-March is bearable down there. Once April arrives, game over until November.

 

[catfaninsc]

Florida is nice Nov-mid May on the gulf coast. Visit down there a lot during that time frame.

I like Peter Pan crunchy. Strawberry preserves. That combo has saved my life many times.

Yes, both of those are my favorite too. Only problem is, once I make a sandwich and eat it, I always want another one or two. What brand of preserves have you found to be your favorite?

 

[warrior-cat]

Morning D. Greetings from the shanty.


More coffee.............................

How much more? I have always wanted to ask that question.

2 cups a day for me. On occasion 3 but, my coffee is generally European strong.

• Good Morning, D-Leagueanites.
• 81º in Johns Creek. Toonder Storms last night. The Hooch is very stained. You might say muddy.
• 2 biscuits. 2 OM eggs. Cream sausage gravy. 3 mugs of DM. I overate, but it sure was tasty. QB does a superb job on the eggs. Just right.
• If you have wondered about a little harness and a short leash that fits the seatbelt. QB picked it up and it worked fine. I recommend. Ymmot, I think it would work for your pet raccoon. Don't get bitten.
  
• Bev, I hope your Mom is recovering.
• I feel a nap coming.
• Be safe out there.
• Carry on with vigor.

That’s what I call a good start.

6-8 cups for me.

Good afternoon D-League! Smoking some chickens on this rainy nasty day, brined them last night and starred smoking them earlier this morning. Hope everyone is having a great day!

That’s my favorite as well Don. Hard to beat a good Pb&J and a glass of milk.

My little grizzly showed me this Osprey & Peregrine @ Kentucky Dam . . .

. . . thought I should share.​

I lived in Hidden Hills Country Club in Jacksonville, FL and played golf year round. I kept the first tee time in the summer because it was torture to play later. Even playing early resulted in being hotter than hell by the 18th hole.

July, August and September can be brutal down there. Get everything ya need done in the am and then hide out in the ac in the pm.

Smuckers is real good.
So's this in a hot biscuit.

Knott's is the other brand I buy probably as much as Smuckers

 

[warrior-cat]

Wife likes Welch's but, if I am with her we get Smucker's along with her's. This is in my cabinet right now. Haven't tried the jam so....

 

[_Rooster]

Jalapeño jellies have allies. Easy to make, festive, mixes well with Pineapples, Raspberries, Citrus & Mint. Linky.

Nice! The A/B switch is important for me because I daisy chain receivers for my whole house system. A good receiver for that price is a steal!

 

[UK82]

Rough few days with the storm. The power was out for about 24 hours. Lost a lot of food in the fridge but the freezer stuff is AOK.

 

[wildcatdonf]

Lots of piggybacks on that train.
