Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I guess that's one of the advantages of being a city boy. I'm pretty hard to shock. I just roll my eyes. I've seen it all before.
What I didn't do on my truck today? Was to hang my Pabst Blue Ribbon light. Ignore the 10 foot Marlin. He's just hamming it up for the camera. He's a show off. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/gallery/...Pabst_Lamp.jpg |

The second time was when I had to go down into Baltimore by the Inner Harbor to a lawyer's office. Same thing, needed to let a little tension off. I was single by then and don't you know I got well acquainted with my waitress, a fine young belle from Knoxville, TN. My second visit to Hooters was the best ;) |

So I decided to put up the 10x13 gazebo we bought last fall. In the first paragraph of the instructions it stated that 6-8 people were required for assembly! It didn't take that many to build my house.
Attachment 2097564 I did it by myself in 3.5 hours. I wish things went that smooth when I work on my truck. Naturally the next day we had 60MPH winds with rain and some snow. It did survive. |

I've got several "Marlins" but I don't have them on racks on the wall. One of them hangs muzzle down on a peg by the door. |

Went to the bank to get funds for another toy to add to my panoply. This will be my third CZ rifle and my first two are fantastic shooters. I really need to get down to just one hobby and try to be good at that instead of mediocre at 3 or 4.

I'll have to find a friend one day who has a CZ to see how much better it shoots than my k10/22t Ruger. I shoot 196+/200 (benchrest) but I see people with smaller groups using CZ and high-dollar ammo. Maybe CCI Mini Mags aren't good enough? Idunno.

around '97 i built our patio, after all these yrs it was getting ratty and some boards were getting punky and soft.
put in new soffit, some vinyl lattice, then some fresh paint, then re-decked it. wit the crazy price of lumber, i re-hashed some of the good old deck boards to replace a couple of soft stringers around the edge. also replaced the rotting plywood skirting wit some new PT plywood.

I’d like to do that shooting again as it was really fun. |

I watched a fine UK Wildcats team win the national championship over Texas in Women's Volleyball.
Championship is in Omaha, I was able to make 2 games. My wife and neighbors went to at least 6. I'm starting to become a bigger VB fan than football, these ladies are pure athletes! Greg |

I cut a little bit more juniper and one little pine on our new adjoining property. I'm trying to get the turn-around wide enough that somebody could get a big pickup camper or a ~25' trailer or motorhome around the circle. There's a fairly big pine right in the middle that I'm planning to leave standing. |

I own several .22's and .22 Mags but this Savage Model 93 BTVS is the most accurate out of the box rifle I've ever shot. Consistent 100 yards on squirrel's as long as there is no operator error.:no:

I hate cutting logs for firewood less than about 8-10 inches diameter but of course I need to use the whole thing as much as possible. I go down to about 2" before I give up, mostly to reduce the amount of brush left over as much as possible. Cutting small green trees just to clear space is the worst. Seems like you cut and stack brush all morning and end up with a couple wheelbarrows worth of firewood. The pines will take over the whole place if you don't keep after them. And I need to attack the juniper regrowth around the house with the brush saw. The stumps never seem to die :( |

Not wishing any bad mojo on you but I had 3 buyers back out on me on the sale of my last place.
I got the impression that the buyers would put in a offer on my house and I would accept it. Then they would keep looking for another place and dump me if they found one. It didn't cost them anything. It just cost me time. I finally got disgusted and took it off the market. Then sold it 2 years later for more money.:) I doubt that will happen now with the housing market being what it is today. It wasn't like that when I was selling. |
