Brought a few more bales home for the cattle.
hauling loads like this makes me miss the diesel

The Birmingham boat show was canceled earlier this year at the convention center which is always inside due to COVID. Nice of Mr. Barber to have the boat show at the Barber Motorsports Park outside this weekend. I did not expect racing to be going on while we looked at boat in the beautiful clear blue warm skies! I never ge tired of visiting this facility.

Installed some new led rope lights on my deck today. Set up with a solar sensor to go on dusk till dawn. 132 feet total to make it from start of the railing at the kitchen to the other side

That is the "shrivel factor". lol. My father South of you has been complaining about the negative tides down there messing with his accessibility to areas with his skinny water Maverick flats boat.

A few things I saw while on a trip Snohomish, WA this past weekend. It’s a suburb of Seattle and except for the cold and rain (and sometimes hail) I would move there immediately.

I just put a couple of miles behind me on snowshoes looking for leaks in the sap tubing. A beautiful day in the 50's.



I walk the mainlines, 1" tubing, looking for sap in each saddle. If I don't see any sap I will walk up the 5/16" lateral tubing that goes to each maple tree looking for air leaks. Well I found a bunch today and need to find more tomorrow. You need to have a good eye to spot some of the leaks. At each leak I will cut the tubing and install a coupling.

A typical leak, that little blemish in the middle of the pic.



The fix



These are all leaks







After these leaks were fixed I found an area on a different mainline where the squirrels had chewed the top off of 15 saddles, big leak. It is tiring work in snowshoes, but the good thing, if you need a snack, there are a lot of chocolate covered almonds scattered around the ground by someone.



I can't wait to trade in my snowshoes for my boat shoes.

Quite a bit of snow still. Our disappeared mostly the last 7 days with it being in the 50’s - high 60’s

Saw this decal today, think it’s interesting enough to share here. Too bad about the poor picture quality.

Ya, we still have a foot to 18" depending on where you are. Still in the snowshoes as I don't like potholing my way thru the woods. I am going to have to aquire a taste for squirrel, and start thinning their gene pool. It is bad this year.

I grew up in that area and although beautiful the traffic and cost of living pushed many (like myself) out.

My Mother celebrated her 30th anniversary with her employer today. She and three other employees got new cars (three 2021 Toyota RAV4s and one Highlander). It was cool.

My wife sent me the first pic below after she got home. Her car on top of my basketball.

I reversed out of the garage to clear the ball and couldn’t find it until I took a closer look.
