Best part of the day.



New starter almost fixed the grinder. Needs a new key switch, too.

Shouldn't have to worry about the clutch or ring gear on this chip truck ever again... $2200 later.

Fan clutch will be in at Napa for the chip truck... Should help it run cooler, for $200.

Bought tickets for Dahlia and I to go to the 14th (ish) Annual Northwest String Summit music festival camping weekend for my birthday present to myself...44 on Monday.

Dahlia wants to bake me a birthday cake with yard picked berries. Adorable. Apron time this weekend, maybe even a Salon day in the back yard.
 
How's Darin doing? I still have my Tanager Tree Service t shirt.

Matter of fact, quite a few names I'm not seeing from before. I would look at my 'friends' list on my old profile but it seems that has been edited recently. My memory is terrible.
 
Not the most flattering expression, but...


First use for that block in forever. My tandem zip pulley will improve the system, when I can find it.

I'd like to put in a steel system. Maybe Amsteel???
 
Amsteel will work good for that Sean. I'm not sure how it holds up to the sun though. The problem with a steel cable is the splinters. I set up a brand new out of the box zip line kit last week end while camping and was bit a few times.

Had a good day working. Did a silver maple reduction this morning. Not my favorite thing to do but it was either I did it or the local ladder high guy would've made it a hat rack. 15'-20' out of a 80' silver maple weed isn't terrible. Looked dang good and the home owner was thrilled with the results. Then went and removed about 60 alianthis (tree of heaven) this afternoon. Vile weeds! All small. Around 30 ' tall and only counted 7growth rings on them. Going back next week for 7 large dead ash at the same house. Came home and fell asleep trying to get the baby to nap. Woke up just in time to walk up for the fireworks at our yearly street party. Cops showed up cause someone complained. The guy hosting the party have them each a big to go container of food and one for the caller. Funny thing is, the police chief lives next door and was present at the party. We all have our guesses to who complained but we will leave it alone.
It was a beautiful day.
 
Jim, I would have a cover to lessen evaporation.

Only in the outer perimeter (where the cows drink) would the water not be covered.

The rest of the inner part would be covered.

Water would evaporate to the cover, then drip back in.

IF I'm sciencing right...
