Youngest daughter told us she wanted to go pick up trash on a lonesome shoreline that doesn't get much viewing, i didn't realize i was allowing her to take the big truck by herself and she thinks she's going to keep her new souvenir in her room

A recipe for disaster! I'd stir the pot and turn down the burner about 40°F, looks a little too warm in there. Isn't it time to clean the collection on the back deck. LOL

To be fair if she is willing to give up her weekends to go pick up trash on the beach.... I would probably let her keep that in the room.... just clean it up first.
 
Pictures of the lunar eclipse. I started this about 10:15 and stopped at 11:38. [flag]

@John McLaughlin, your eclipse photos are awesome. :winkingthumbsup"

I didn't bother checking last night as I'm usually disappointed in what I see. However, looks like we missed a great eclipse last night.

Finishing up my last yard project for the year till next winter. I reshaped the bank of the creek to level it out with thr backhoe on the tractor. Pulled the sloppy mud mess out yesterday and today raked it out and pulled out a majority of the roots. This area was a big dip down that always was muddy and my mower would slide around.
After a few days it will dry out and i will pack it down by driving over it with my 4wheeler. Next year it will be nice and green with grass.

It's birthing season for the neighborhood deer. Came across this doe and her very recent to this world fawns this morning near the fence line at the back of the property.

The new boat is an absolute beast. That said, I'd never sell my AR240!
Do you have isenglass/full vinyl windows to enclose the "cabin"? Looks amazing....we'll be up for a tour soon!

Well the dinghy cover my wife made last Fall, spent the first night out in the wild last night in a hard downpour. Not a drop to bail today. Woohoo!
Looks like she has a future in making covers!!!!
