Good morning! Went to Oologah, OK yesterday to pick up a Homelite 20MCS that a fellow collector bought for me. Got back just in time for a planned trip for a friend to help pick up two hit and miss engines. He is a total rookie when it comes to hit and miss engines but just had to have a couple. He bought them just from looking at pictures of them. I guess he didn't think a 3-horse engine would be very big because his eyes popped out when he saw the size of the McCormick Deering. The previous owner used a bucket loader with forks in order to lift it and put it in my trailer. Now that I think about it I need to get a hold of him this morning to prevent him from getting a broken arm trying to start them.

Way across MO for me

Home to KU Medical is about 2.5 hours or so. We always have an early appointment so usually traffic is not too bad.

New calf, meter was installed yesterday and now I need to unload some wood. Decent day so far, taking a little break to eat something and then go light a brush pile. Friend is bringing his daughter out for some hotdogs and marshmallows.

Got a fairly good size load of garbage today......and, it rained.
One never knows what one might buy at an auction.......the gas pump was a first for me.

Meshuggah Bagels are Awesome!

Let me know when you come to town, maybe I can meet you guys there.

I’m partial to Rye toasted with Lots of butter.

Sometimes (rarely) they will have Pumpernickel, another variety I like toasted with butter, butter and a little more butter.

What does one do with a modern gas pump?

Hopefully sell it in parts or the whole for a profit.....hopefully.
Only paid $25 so not a terrible gamble.

Set it up outside the house and start making "corn squezzins" to sell. You should have enough stuff around to build a still by now. And those 3 point augers always seem to crack at that same spot.

I drove past and looked at it several times before I decided one day to stop in. Did the same thing with McBee's, now that is a definite stop. Picked up a bunch of varieties to try out that day at both places. I can't remember what the favorites are but I will check before we leave. I think her appointment is the 25th.

Lol.

That auger is Sam's next welding/repair project.

Your still remark reminds me of a local dude who stopped by the house one day (drunk as a skunk) and offered to supply us with 5 gallons of homebrew per week...."strictly for medicinal purposes".

It's chilly outside here, 31° for the start of the day. When do we get this extra hour of sleep "they" talk about, just means when I get up the clock says an hour earlier. May try for another load of wood after lunch today when it warms a bit. Pumpkins got dropped to $1 each the other day so pies just came out of the oven. Looks like steak, baked potatoes and pumpkin pie for lunch.
