how about a Oklahoma,AR,MO,KS,TX,+IA GTG thread?

My brother is very good at it as well, and he tells me the same thing.......guess it proves I don't know what the heck I'm doing.

I did have a revelation this morning though.....Tom's taken over most of the mud smearing, therefore I need to let (make) him do the sanding so he can connect more dots on the muddery process.
I'm trying to protect my ignorance & lack of sheetrock skill here.....lol.

The people who do drywall for a living hardly sand at all, they sponge the mud when it's just setting up.

With quick set mud and the sponge method they can do all the required coats in a day.

Further evidence of my ineptitude......

I’d still rather take a beating than be awesome at drywall..

Drywall can suck it…

Good morning folks.
Emptied 1.45" from the gauges this morning, from the latest 24 hrs.

It’s getting after it now, lots of sideways rain. Looks like we missed the big one so far today it went just to the north but this system is just getting started.

Looks like around .40” or so in about 15 minutes or so.

I guess I will see what the rain fast time is on the pastures I sprayed.

Is Catalpa any good for anything other than brush pile fodder ???

I may keep a small amount for some shoulder season wood but most will likely get moved to the pile & torched.

Apparently it does have some uses. My 85 yo father in law and his brother had some guys buy maybe a half dozen of them on the stump and paid good money, back in the '70s. I think they said they used them for lathe turning bowls.

Didn't know they're rot resistant....

I'd try to make lumber outta it if it was at my house.

All I have is a chainsaw mill, I may cut some slabs for a friend who does some woodworking.

My Dad has put large hay bales in one spot for near of 50 years & my brother wants me to use my pole saw to prune things back as it has gotten pretty hairy & closed in.

I stopped at looked & it will be much easier & efficient to just cut everything thing at about fence height 4’ or so, then let them cleanup with the skid loader.

Several catalpas, some hackberries, osage, mulberries & a couple cherries.

I can take the gravy & leave the rest. It will have to be done in July or August so I don’t want to spend any more time than necessary.

Can't sleep. At least it is Friday

Are the catalpas as much of a nuecence as I think the bradford pear that is turning in to a noxious weed around here?

Went to the recliner at quarter to 1 because of leg cramps. Welcome to summer. Hoping to miss the rain since hay is down in the field.

A very wise man once told me it burns better than snow.

Happy Friday!
