Breakfast $3.26

Two stepping stones $7.02.

Being able to access my mobile home without stepping in two inches of mud, priceless.

We have had a lot of rain over the past few of months. Damn hairy canes. Anyway, I decided I was tired of everyone stepping in mud and going into the house. I bought two steeping stones and fixed it. There used to be a nice gravel pad here. I think I dug out about 15 marble sizes pieces of gravel to level this up and make it look nice. The rest disappeared into the earth.



See all that green crap growing everywhere? How to get rid of it? I wash this place every spring. It grows back by winter.

An N? Cornfuzing.


We want a Nissian Rogue SV. We have rented two ('17 and '18) and both were wonderful vehicles. Good fuel mileage and very comfy. A lot of passenger room and storage.

That's the best example of portrait vs. landscape confusion I've seen yet.

Well, last night I bought Mexican food for one of our Sales Reps and myself. Should have skipped the Flan.

Spin on oil filter adapter for the Ural. Should be able to use a Fram ph3593a or a Mann w753 in lieu of the tissue paper cartridges.

Must be a Candian only model.




As far as purchasing, nothing yet but looking like a new battery for the truck. It was slow to start this morning. It was 25*F here. Ain't used to that around here. The battery is close to five years old now, a Duracell. Taking it to a friend at lunch to get his machine's opinion. I can only do so much with a multimeter.

Merry Christmas to me

I bought myself a new electric guitar! It's a Squier classic vibe 50's telecaster. I bought it because I love Telecasters and it gets rave reviews. Yes, it is made in China but this thing is really well crafted. It has a thick pine body just like the original Telecasters and the finish on it is flawless, and it sounds awesome!
