Good morning gang.

Cool here this morning temps in the teens. We should reach the upper 20's with mostly sunny skies here. I'm sure hoping old man winter is finaly loosening his grip and letting some warmer temps creep in.


Lets get going.

Good Morning CGs!

Supposed to hit 32* today...almost non-freezing temperatures. Tomorrow is supposed to be in the low 40s. Can't wait.

I saw two pictures yesterday from the NCM for the cars they pulled out. The pace car and the millionth. Man those were beat up pretty good. I know they can/will be repaired, but it's a lot of work.

I finally had a chance last night to paint a few spots of drywall touch up and put a coat on the new trim on the mudroom coat rack. Turned out nice. Always something to do.

Hope everyone has a great day!

No luckly all I wrote was a plea for back mojo from the Guru since my back went out on me yesterday. Went to the bone cruncher once and will go back today but it hurts. I will deal with that first and then see what the day brings.

Let's be careful out there Guru Nation.....

Back mojo, Marcus!

Looks like my post also got lost in the ether - let's see, what scintillating tidbit had I offered up? Oh yeah, today is the first day in a long time where I didn't have to use my steering wheel heater. Perhaps I'll celebrate later with a tasty beverage.

Have a good day, yawlz!

How come all the great things you can do with stuff today create so much more work, like that I-phone photo stuff. That's why I like the simpler times. A little Brownie box camera and an AM transistor radio and you were good to go ...... Who needs to be connected by phone all the dayum time?




......... Ring ........... Ring .......... Gotta go!......

Its Thursday, nothing but the best time to FO, besides all that sanding you've been doing is raising hell with the environment, you must stop and just FO. Besides 102 years ago today - the Oreo sandwich cookie was introduced by the National Biscuit Co.



Have a glass of milk and a cookie and celebrate the wonder of it all .

Have you seen his yard? It would take a couple of centuries of sanding to make a minor environmental impact. Sand and dust comprise 94% of Bill's yard.

While my "yard" does not come up to some people's tastes, the rest of the property has been done with tremendous effort and careful planning in.......sagebrush and tumble weeds.

It's all zero maintenance.

Think about dat when you're sweatin' and pushin' dat mower.

Yea, they really are.

Purchase price for one like this would be $30,000+ .

This is the last one Steve built. The only parts purchased were the rough wheel castings and the couplers. He made/machined everything else.

Evening....it has been so crazy today. Got home from school and left for my appointment to give blood. an hour and a half later I got home. Rosie wants to go out to eat, so we run up to one of the local places and have Mexican food. Get home and GS's girlfriends car won't start. So I pull the PU out there to jump the car. This has been an on-going problem, so I tell her she needs to take it up to the parts store and have the battery checked.

I go into the house and start swapping the parts from the old computer and put the new parts in. Take the parts I took out and installed them into another case while I transferred the stuff to the new computer. It's just about done...it took two hours.

I guess it really is time to go to bed.
