There’s a sky diving place nearby...wife gets to see a few of the survivors at the hospital a few times a year.

Figured I would throw a picture up to test the glitch since the last photo was uploaded to this thread yesterday afternoon. Here is my crazy ass 19 year old skydiving last Friday! I thought I was going to have an anxiety attack watching her do this crap!

Did this with my wife for my 25th b day. Dad watched and had the same feelings!! Craziest part was watching my wife fall out first! Pretty surreal.

The Captain should have weighed the passengers before he let them board. They may exceed the capacity plate rating.

Bounced over to Paris for the week. For some reason I’ve never really had an urge to go to Paris, even though I’ve lived in Europe for several years combined, my son really wanted to see the Eiffel Tower so we came up here for the week....I’ve really enjoyed seeing the sites, the Louvre blows my mind on how massive it is!View attachment 108443View attachment 108444View attachment 108443View attachment 108444

@Wayloncle Nice! We are going to Paris in May when school gets out. The middle boy is graduating HS and this is where he wanted to go. We are also going to bounce around Italy for a week after checking out Paris for a few days.

Those two would be great for wake surfing ballast. Move them side to side, too, lol.

This is what I see every day. Although it changes thru the 5 or 6 Seasons we have here. This was taken this morning after I fed the cows, as the sun was coming up. This is my driveway, please excuse the non landscape hand held video, ungloved, in a truck displaying -6°f on the mirror. Believe it or not...there are days I miss my old house's short little 75' paved driveway.

I dream of having a place like that! Has to be quiet back there and no one bothering you & wildlife probably everywhere is what I would like about it.

It is quiet, although at about 1200', on the hilltop where we built, at certain times, air/wind conditions you can hear the airport, especially the new f35's, big motored boats running WOT out on the Lake and the occasional truck on the interstate 10 miles away. We get no trick or treaters or people trying to sell me something especially this time of year when AWD/4WD AND snow tires are required to get there. Yes, a lot of wildlife here on the 478 ac. and thousands around us. Whitetail, black bear, lynx, coyote, fischer cat, mink, ermine, beaver, turkey etc. It was all because of the views out the window of the Lake and the Adirondacks of NY.

3 barns. Horse barn, the old dairy barn cows down stairs and hay and stickered hardwoods upstairs, not in video. and the big one where the boats are, sawmill and more stickered hardwoods and equipment. The 3 bay garage was stuffed full of 30 years of clutter. Needed a dump run.

You have your own sawmill? That's fun stuff!

Yes. A Woodmizer Lt40hd-d42 with a 21' bed. All hydraulic 42hp Kubota turbo diesel. Used it for 20 years. Built a timber framed house with Red Oak and Black Cherry trees from our property in 2001. Just took this pic. It is at the other end of the arena. It is a blast.

You must have a few ranch hands or just you and the wife?
BTW -- I love seeing your life through pictures. You have a very unique life! Love it!

Thank You. We used to employ 5 between the cheese making for 20 years and blueberries. Three in the plant and two in the field. Now, I do pay a good friend and his sons to help me tap the 5600 maples, but now it is just the two of us in the Blueberry field which does cut into boating time.

None yet, but I am considering rebuilding this waverunner over the winter.

Been building more swings for the city parks.

 

[Scottintexas]

Been building more swings for the city parks.

I'm very intrigued/confused by this ? I like it but it's very unusual,

Is this a city designed swing? is there some style significance to justify it or did somebody just have a bunch of left over steel ?

Is the city hiring you to build this or are you donating it?
