Don’t put holes in cabinets next to a field of rodents

I vote west coast GTG at @Burnham ‘s ;-)

I was just trimming a little tree for my FIL (now RIP :-( ) There just might be work for you in west Texas…lots of dead trees there I can’t do, need climber. Doc had to teach me the trick of using a swab to roll eyelid inside out. It was slivered in. Unfun. Finished the tree and got the...

75mph on a nice warm and dry sunny day is fine, though 10 hours of it is tough duty no matter which way you slice it. But now you won't have that, not for 5 or 6 months. The passes north of Redding all the way to Roseburg or so are just as likely to have snow as not, and some rain is just...

Got any links?

Been working in my creek. It just started flowing a couple weeks ago. My son lives about 1/2 mile downstream. It was still soaking in the creek bed between here and there. Might be flowing now.

I'm late, but I just want to point out that this endeavor turned into a shit show. David, I've put myself at your disposal countless times... I'm not a certified arborist but I wouldn't have had to go to the doctor after that little thang...

From someone who watches the defense industry side of things, anduril has made promises it can't seem to deliver on. Who woulda thought it, when the boss looks like a fat, untalented version of me? They had promise, but they're beginning to look like a flash in the pan and wasted taxpayer...

The creek we worked around today was a mess but pretty. Not flowing right now, but any rain at all, and it will.

That's the exact quote I use for all big projects that seem daunting at first, "How do you eat an elephant?" "SMALL BITES!" Burnham, it's 800 to go see my kids, and that's the whole reason for the bike... 750 miles is just ten hours at 75mph... I'm all reality I'll be far more available to...

That's nice of you to think about it...but I dunno :). A 750 mile (each way!) trip this time of year on a motorcycle is no joke. We will just take it a bite at a time, like the old story about "how do you eat an elephant" :).

TH seems to be enthralled with this info re Palmer Luckey (lol) but anyway I'll post this clip from another interview where he pinpoints how the industrial capability which allowed us to win WW2 has disappeared since then and how it could and should be reestablished to create war deterrence via...

Yes, and a massdam, and block and tackle, etc. Still not fun when the angles are off. The bike bottomed out while loading initially. Loading or unloading here at Rob's is a non issue, we have a dock for that, the ramp is all but flat. Everywhere else, problems can arise. Should probably invest...

Burnham, I know the feeling. This summer I had a huge maple leader drop in the heat from sudden limb drop. There was access for my pick up truck and I cleaned it all up by hand, grumbling to myself the whole time how freaking easy it would be if I still had my Kubota R520 to use on it :drink:

Do either of you have access to a portable winch?

Dadgumit! Wish I had the bike on the road, I'd come up later this week and lend a hand! Speaking of, it seems a single part is keeping me from firing the bike up. The dang fuel petcock is clogged. I thought I had it flowing properly before I started cleaning the tank, but I could be mistaken...

Well, old Mother Nature delivered a big-assed amount of cleanup work to me and M yesterday afternoon late. Forecast strong winds with gusts above 35mph and some heavy rain arrived, and we lost a large cottonwood in our riparian area about 75 feet north of the house. Good for the house that...
