Good Morning CGs!

Still dealing with a lot of personal stuff on the family front. Dad is supposed to be moved from the hospital to a rehab facility today. As long as the hospital doesn't screw that up, like everything else they've done. He was already supposed to be there Saturday, but that's a whole different story.

Brad - belated congratulations on the anniversary.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Matthew

Morning guys...First off, a belated 40th anniversary Brad. Sounds like you had a great time.

I was busy in the shop most of the day yesterday. I got a few things going for the week. Rosie is off to Wichita in a bit for three days of meetings, so I'll be batching.

Looks to be another nice day here, temps in the upper 70's and a little breeze. Supposed to get bumpy tomorrow, possibly. Bring on the rain, is what I say.

Have a great day gurus.

Rain all went east of us so its peddle to the metal around here.......hope things get better up there for you Matt......dealing with institutions can be frustrating to say the least.......

Onward and upward Guru's........have a safe day.....

Greetings! The alarm clock was a most unwelcome sound this morning, could've used more shut-eye after all that chow. But the grindstone calleth.

Thanks again, yawlz - we had a fun weekend.

Have a great day, all!

CLOUDY AND COOL IN THE NATIONS THIS MORNING. NOTHING MUCH ON THE AGENDA TODAY, OTHER THAN THE MONDAY AUTO ROTATION. IF I COULD WORK UP SOME MOTIVATION I'D MOW THE OBSTACLE COURSE. OR I COULD GO TO THE RIFLE RANGE, IT'S A LITTLE WINDY FOR ZEROING THOUGH.

MATT, HOPE ALL GOES WELL WITH YOUR DAD.

What is your “fair share” of what someone else has worked for?

On a positive note, you've been at the wheel for many moons. One day your turning will be over. Someone just entering the workforce has a lifetime of achievement to look forward to. Glad it's not me ..........

Took a few shots from around the yard yesterday. Quality of the photos is questionable but you'll get the idea.

4 of the 9 holes of the putt putt course I built in the front yard a year and a half ago. Some areas to sit and watch the birds, butterflies and occasional passers-by. And last, a shot from my driveway looking east. That's just the front yard. I'll take and post some backyard pics sometime soon.

There are 9 holes. You play 9 one way, then 9 the other gives you a full 18. Well, off to shower and get to work. Time waits for no one .......

Looks pretty delightful there, Tommy!

GOT THE OBSTACLE COURSE MOWED.
MY YARD DOES NOT LOOK MUCH LIKE TOMMY'S. HIS LOOKS LIKE A LOT OF WORK; MINE IS AU NATURAL. EXTREME LOW MAINTENANCE, TOTALLY ORGANIC :-)

Well, worked in the shop most of the day. Screwed up making a jig, tried to fix it, screwed it up worse. So back off and regroup on it. Finished a wedding present for nephew getting married in July. Rosie is invited to a shower for the bride in a couple weeks and Rosie and I did our signature present. She crochets the family name and I make a hanger for it. This one had a little special meaning as I used some wood from a wall divider taken out of Rosie's Dad's house to make the hanger. Nephew has always adored his grandparents and I think/hope that this gift will mean quite a bit more than just a hanger made by me. The wedding gift, again a tradition we have done for nearly all the nieces and nephews (close to 15), is a quilt rack I designed.

I worked in the yard, too, today. I trimmed the edging of the driveway and did "tree-IV" on two of the trees giving it an iron booster. We have very iron deficient soil and these two trees always turn yellow if we don't give them the boost.
