Morning/evening fellars
From 8 to 48 today
Get the cows taken care of while frozen then play with welder when its thawing and greasy out

I hate that greasy and thawing like it is doing now here in Maine. I have done a lot of welding with my Miller Legend in less than dry conditions. Going to be 9 Tonite so everything should get nice and dry and crunchy. I have a hose I wanted to get up from under the snow but even the 50 temps with rain and wind is not going to get rid of enough snow. Was out hammering up blocks of wood near driveway so I do not bust the plow truck frame hitting them while frozen. I can not stay inside even when it is crappy out because I get cabin fever big time and easily.

Life is precious, and you never know when it is time. My wife and I watched coworkers retire to die, so we decided we would do what we needed to live our dream of having a farm, before we retired. We did, and all I can say is I am glad we did. We used to get up and get on the treadmill of life, looking forward to a day when we could stop, and do what we wanted.

It took some sacrifices, like never buying a new car, or only paying with cash for anything. And saving like, slackers. Tomorrow isn't promised to any of us. You have some good memories of your friend. Cherish them.

Sorry, your comment reminded me of my mentor, I miss him. His lessons I pass on to this day.

Have a great day peeps.

I like this...doing something similar myself. Life is short and working any shift, any location, six days and nights around Boston for years got to me.

Got the call last night that a guy that i worked with passed away. Hell of a carpenter and one of the funniest guts out there. Sad thing is he had retired less than a year ago. RIP Steve "Batman" Mathieson.

Hate reading stuff like this. Retired less than a year ago....

Dammit.

Thank you Mark. Its funny how good of friends you can become in a years time. Lots of one liners from him rolling around in my head now.

Enjoy one of those extra special stogies on the Batman today John. Sorry for the loss and embrace the good work memories yinzers had together my man!
Morning to the rest of you fellars. It's a money weekend, working tomorrow up in the Allegheny National Forest.

Great idea Tim. The cigar shop is mile down the road from the job. Be safe up in the woods tomorrow

Similar situation here, lost a close friend/ business associate to cancer about 14 years ago. He had a specific one liner that I bring out whenever I can and I even taught Elliott.

After a trip to the barber you inevitably are asked “Did you get a haircut?” “Nope… I got them all cut…” groans and boos are a sure follow.

Miss you Bouts!!!!
