Good one Bagger! I woke up with Buster laying on me looking down at me grinning and my bed covered with all his favorite toys to pull on and wrassle with. His favorite way to start the day. Yup he missed me..need to go for a ride fer breakfast.

 

Makes me glad once again that I was an Army guy with regular office hours, with no decks to swab.

Good to see you made it back safe and sound. Well, safe anyway! I don't like those monster tires when they roar paste me on the highway. The monster mudders around here, and there are a lot of them, all think their trucks are sportsmobiles, also.

 

Gonna be another perfect day today, so I guess I better enjoy it while I may.

 

Moldie hittin them green stumps with a good sharp ax head will work just take smaller bites. This stuff will keep'em from growing back...

 

Aniah at the game last night...





The boys won 12 - 10.

 

Dark and wet this morning, glad I covered the mower at 3:30am. It's the old one with a locked up blade bearing, probably wouldn't hurt it to get wet anyway. Been abusing it to move tree parts.

Coastie, wish I could've taken that trip with you, 3 years ago did a round trip from Atlanta to Oklahoma City with my brother, kinda enjoyed the drive. Had a trailer behind his Aviator on the to trip, that wasn't so great, but at least it had a motor that handled the load fine. Solo drives tire me out fast.

 

Get them leveled and I'll be mowing over them. The one's I've done a few years back tried growing for two or three years, then gave up. Taking a break today - rain. Looks like a lot of rain in the week ahead. I'll be glad when it's tomorrow; gotta drive into downtown M-apolis this evening, ain't looking forward to it.

 

That's enough outside w#rk for a little while. Finally unloaded and placed the load of stones in places in need of stones, ala erosion prevention. This could be my big project for the summer, and one I kinda enjoy. It's always a good time going out in the boonies and getting the rocks, and I don't mind the effort needed to move them.

 

T'ain't never any fun driving downtown in any city in my book. Chris does it daily, and it doesn't bother her. I only do it when I must. I had never been into the central part of Downtown St. Louis until I was in my 20's and driving a company box truck, and I haven't been back since I left that company in the 90's, either!
