It's bottled in liters, not quarts.

 

I wanna believe that......   but that's in a 946 ml bottle.

Right. Or a liter of engine.

LOTS done today. 

Started out going to pick up our new Horse Tugger. 

 

 

7 x 16 Triple Crown brand. 5500 lb GVW. Payload is around 3800 lbs. 

 

Later we worked on the upstairs area of the barn. 

Trina and her momma got three more storage pockets built into the roof trusses.  

 

 

While they did that I finished up the exercise rack.

This was my day, from about 11AM until 5:30 ish.

I have been moving soil, grading, seeding, adding straw, mulching, mulching, and, did I mention... mulching?

More mulching to go.  I think we need more delivered.

I know right where your house is, and not because of the street number. I recognize that bin corral.

Yeah, I built that a few months ago because the trash guys always left the cans in the middle of the driveway!

I worked a steadily busy day at good old Hannaford. Gotta pay bills and for parts somehow. 😁

I've found with either loam or mulch it's best to order twice what you think you need.

Fileted about 200 trout for the Kids.

I did!  I'm not very good at estimating, obviously.

I wonder if he's cash only or if he takes PayPal, Venmo, zelle, bitcoin etc...

$5000 for the 400 fish we stocked and $1500 in prizes minus the $200 I made cleaning fish.   We're still out $6300.

It comes out to around $100 per Kid.   Well worth it for those $100 smiles.

I started the process of slowly draining the unintentional frog pond today. It'll take weeks to finish which is good. If/when we find tadpoles we will catch and release to a different pond.

This was mostly yesterday, but I'm about to go work on it some more and obviously have a ways to go.  After evaluating the available "pre-fab" picket fence panels, I decided to build this fence from scratch.  We want it to be 5-1/2 feet tall and nobody makes one that size, or with the 1-1/2" gap between the pickets.  Got a new air nailer to make it easier, probably saving $1000 over what it would cost otherwise (doing around 100' of fence - at least for now....)

Finished up this morning- mostly yesterday spread 5 yards of #57 riverstone. Going to build a pergola onto side of shed with a bar & fireplace. Spread stone for pergola area, walkway to her she shed, & stone up at her prayer garden. Open area between garage & where pergola will be Im going to build a stand for one of my hit/miss engines. Ill have a custom canvas made to protect it.

 

Sore today.....Im getting too old for all that hard work. My 22yr old son helped & 9yr old kid next door really worked hard too so I paid him.

Drove 4 hours home from Bangor this morning after burying my brother yesterday. Great to see my Sister who lives south of Chicago.

Sad that this is what brings us together.

Wonderful ceremony performed by a minister who was my brother's friend that drove down from Canada for the service.

Had a great meal in Bangor at 11 Central St. restaurant. If you like duck,  . Best I've had in a very long time!

Another steadily busy workday at Hannaford…..It’s Sunday so it’s usually busy anyway. Today was the Summer season starting and Graduation party added in. That C141 is going to look and work great if I ever get time to work on it.😁

[adsm08 2,921]

Walked the dogs this morning, set the church up for VBS after service, then just kind of chilled after. Between Canada being on fire again, and the Sahara trying to migrate west my chest is getting pretty tight, so I'm trying to stay inside while I can. Plus it's been raining most of the day.

Flew to Cancun on the way to Playa del Carmen.

Waiting for family to get done at the baggage carousel.

 

Btw, That's a 940 mL beer!

Yesterday I got attic window #2 out of three replaced.  This one had the additional EF of needing the old window sill to be dug out and replaced.  This generated some table saw work.  The table saw is in the basement, with the window in the attic, I got my stair induced cardio workout.
