When we travel and I’ve never stayed in a place before I grind enough coffee for the duration, I take 3 kinds of coffee filters, my own cream, flavoring for the boss’s coffee (🤢) and my thermal mug

I forgot my mug this time around (👴) but discovered that my water bottle makes a dandy coffee cup

Keeps it nice and hot while I have a mornin chat with you scallywags

My Yeti 30oz tumbler is my coffee mug by morning and water cup for the rest of the day. Rinse and repeat.

The kids got me probably the very same cup but I haven’t even washed it out yet

I’m a creature of habit but I’ll give it a go when we get back home

I just found out that IRA 410 sprint cars are racing tomorrow in Beaver Dam, WI. Gonna have to take some kids down to watch.

I've made the decision to head out that way tonight. Looks like it will be a good time, and more exciting for my boys than the roundy-round racing we get to watch in Slinger.

Let me know if you'd like to meet up. Would be nice to have a face to put with a username

We have started tearing down my dilapidated barn today, pictures of the misery.
One thing is certain, I will never be unemployed! (even though I am disabled)
And, thank the gods that I have a skilled neighbor with an excavator, one of the district's best.

One of my neightbor’s excavator’s (he have 3 if not 4, all of them are Hitachi)

This part is my father's construction, built to be, solid work, 3 strong masonry columns inside to support the center of the roof supports. (

We leave this part as long as possible, when one is close to a road you can forget to build up if you remove the building, you need to build up walls quite quickly to avoid problems.
(but I will continue the wall, however,)

I have to manually shovel quite a bit here to get down into the foundation wall, we are going to remove the top layer of stone and build up a more solid wall

That is quite the project, Tor! Hope it goes as well as it can. I don't think I'd have it in me to undo my father's work... A neighbor with several excavators is a good person to be friendly with.

Very well equipped excavator@Tor. I wish everyone used shovel and pic brackets. Most everyone over here throws them in the center of machine. And then they wonder why the inner swing circle seal fails! LOL. That's also some cool old gutter on that barn. Stainless or Aluminum? I assume stainless because it is not oxidized.

Im looking at all the rocks that were laid in there probably by hand. We have it easy nowadays.

I am not redoing my father's work, what he has done is rock solid, his barn ceiling could of course be higher, but he was very generous with the construction. He built his part in the 90s.
What I am going to tear down and build up is from 1924, and that part mostly contained hay bales that did not need as strong a structure as my father's.
That said, I'm going to build with oversized foundations just like he thought lol.

Yep, my neighbor is extremely skilled with the excavator, it's been his profession for well over 20 years now. He is the one who has the cultivation of my fields.
My father who is gone was also very skilled in the excavator, that was his profession from the age of 24 until he retired at the age of 65.
