Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
^ That's some pretty stupid stuff to do. I worked on a space program years ago where we had bullet-resistant shielding surrounding some REALLY high dollar hardware, and discovered a bullet hole through-and-through in the shipping truck. It obviously happened after delivery, on the return trip. It wouldn't surprise me that some dumb bass would shoot at something, though. With the new tech that locates gun shot sources, hopefully those yahoos get busted, and have to work for the rest of their lives paying for the damage.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Several years back they had a train derailment with some of those. I believe they ended up scrapping six fuselages. Can you imagine the insurance settlement for that!

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
You ever look back on a job you did at home and think " Man that was a lot of work "
Looking through some old pictures and that is what came into mind first and then you say " but it payed off " with years of enjoyment. The pool area needed a face lift with new liner , added a step at the one end and added a bigger step at the other this was done by contractors and added more seating area at both ends The BBQ area I guess I could say was the fun part to build The wife and I put up the fence without a divorce and my youngest son and I did the prep work around the pool .jacked the change house up to level , it sagged over the years |

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
That was a lot of work that I'm sure has paid off. I have looked and thought the same before.
What I realized one day here is there isn't an inch of this place I haven't laid my hands on. Ok, except my bedroom. I have done very minimal there. I hope to start in on that this winter, finally

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
It's funny my bedroom is untouched and everything else has been gone over with a fine tooth comb. Same wallpaper, same carpet, and even has the wiring run along the floor with receptacles mounted on the baseboard. And same low saggy brown coat plaster ceiling. It was the lowest priority since it's private and all I do is sleep there. I have a nice bed!
![]() I ran a new power feed, phone line (remember when that was the thing?), and speaker wires up to the bedroom when I did the rest of the house long long ago. Now all that is needed is the power feed. I need to complete my barn move project to get the storage back I'll need to move into another bedroom while I gut the bedroom. I plan to raise the ceiling, so attic over the room must be emptied. It will be pretty involved, but can't wait. It's never bothered me being the way it is, but it will be really nice once done. Mainly it's something a potential buyer would want Here's my random picture of "Convenience Store". That's right, not "the convenience store" or "a convenience store" like all those other places. This is Convenience Store in Glenville, PA. You probably heard of it ![]()

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Every ball game I've ever been at (admittedly, not many, not much of a sports fan) People were generally bombed before going in, and buying $7 "glasses" of beer like it was going out of style. $7 was the price in about y2k, which is the last time I went to a Dodgers game. I generally drove, and can't imagine snarfing all the boozores out of those binoculars and driving.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
I know this isn’t too interesting to a bunch of mostly fellas … I am making some more stickers for my grand niece. She asked me to design some for her soccer team. I got a laminator that presses hot or cold depending on the laminate used. First batch of 3 inch came out ok using my Silouette cutting machine. These are my first attempt at hot press.
I’ve been a 20 plus year user of Adobe products but I just can’t justify the cost $$$ of yearly subscription since they went totally cloud based. I’m trying to learn the Affinity product line. I have a folder on my desktop labeled Paul, I’m keeping ideas in there to make some Paul based stickers haha!

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
I've been noticing some monster sized produce lately. We like to see healthy produce but this stuff is getting freaky. Turns me off, to be honest. I see brussels sprouts that if bigger you might call it cabbage. They're just not supposed to be that big! I've seen carrots so big I wouldn't buy them.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Maybe it’s GMO’s. Maybe she’s born with it.
Reminds me of those 1800’s black and white photos of giant zucchini’s and watermelons. Not sure how that worked way back then. Probably using things worse for us than we use today.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
My MiL planted zucchini one time and didn't see one for all the leaves. That thing grew to 3 feet long! not worth eating, though. It was like wood.
