Dinner is late tonight. Got some burgers on the grill right now. Sam is making pasta salad.

I cooked a pizza on the grill at the hotel. Didn't come out too bad for a non-wood fire grill. I'm definitely ready to come home see my babies and Wife and have access to my own kitchen again.

Partner lost spark.[emoji21]

Ran and cut good last evening.

And, 'rocked' the pole saw chain on the garage floor dinking with it.[emoji20]

I don't mind filing the chains on the pole saw and th 201. They're short and don't need sharpened too often. The rest of the saws are why I want a grinder.

You old guys go down late and get up early!




Were building a greenhouse to do a straw bale garden. Works quite well and no weeds to deal with. The bale rots and the plants flourish.


I wear a 7 and 5/8" myself...

The only thing that concerns me about the straw bales is, as the cellulose fiber breaks down in the straw, it supposedly binds up nitrogen, only to release it later once decomposition is done.
Tomatoes are "heavy feeders", and is the fertilizer bump needed as the straw breaks down.. ???
Or is straw break down much different than wood break down?
And does a person add dirt to the bale to aid in transplant for the new plant?

Mmmmmm...

Burgers and pasta salad...

Teach Sam how to cook.. That way he's not impressed by any future female's culinary abilities..

It gives him the upper hand that way.

No, the break down process is very similar to wood so you don't need to add dirt. A shot of miracle grown never hurts, but it's not strictly necessary.

Morning midlanders!

Another great day on tap in the heartland!

Found some tiny ears of sweet corn last night.

I planted it in July.

Well, I was going to go fishing
This morning, but a mile from my house
On 69 a guy pulled out in front of me,
I hit the brakes hard but hit the back of his 1/4 panel hard enough to tear up the g6 good, probably totaled.
Thank God I didn't get him farther forward I was going 65
I am ok I wrecked at 4 and me and the wife had the car on my trailer and home a little after 530
The good Lord wants me around a while
Longer.

Off work today, getting the camper loaded and ready by the time the wife gets off at noon.
Normally at this time I'm at work. Trying to get some coffee in me. I keep hearing this noise. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah blah blah.
It's a strange noise. Something I've never heard this early. Blah blah blah blah blah blah. I turn to my wife to ask what this strange noise is, as lm not accustomed to it.
Slowly the noise is coming into focus.
Blah blah blah, this goes to the camper, that pile goes to the camper. Don't forget to get propane. Have you got your tools loaded ? She goes out of focus. Blah blah blah blah blah.
Right now all I'm thinking of is, COFFEE!!!!!

 

[Douglas Ostrander]

I am trying not to think about camper till after lunch. Trying to think about which 404 chain should I try next. Plus coffee.

 

[sunfish]

Cobey, glad you & wife are OK. Sorry about the fishing trip.

52 here this morning, thanks to the Canadian air...

 

[67L36Driver]

Cars come and go.

 

[cobey]

Bahaha ..... but did serve me well.


Being alive is a blessing
And you my friends
Are also

The [emoji35] Partner!
I don't get it. How can a saw run and cut one day and no spark less than fourteen hours later. Makes no sense.
