Good morning HB, Fred and anyone else who shows up... My it's a beautiful day out this am and it's bringing thoughts of a pleasant coal fire to sit by, I'd like to do a little painting on the inside of my bin before I put the coal in and then get a second load but that's not all gonna happen today cause there are other things to do too. Enjoy the day all!

Mornin'
Good coffee, HB, Thank you. Mowed the grass yesterday before the rain came. Grass is still green and growing. Flowers have just about had it. 'Golden-rod' & 'Dan-D-Lions' are all that's left. It's time to get ready for 'Old Man Winter'. Have a good week-end, everyone.
Cheers

No frost here or rain for that matter. Finishing up the roof on my screened in porch, or soon to be screened in.....90+ all thru next week. Need some rain as we are in drought conditions according to the weather man. Still trying to make the M&G this year, fingers crossed.

*yawwwwn* Ahhhh, I'm enjoying the heights of laziness. I got bock from north camp last night, but only now getting my rear in gear. It's a gentle slightly breezy rain outside now. This is Dorian? Coal prices going up Sept 16th..... get it now or pay $10 a ton more. I got my bin full, but 3 neighbors need bagged coal. Still looking for a truck driver that eats peanut butter & jelly. The ones I talked to last week all want meat!

Good morning, I drove up to Direnzo’s for nut this morning. 2.69 tons. I should have put more air in the tires. Here’s a picture from last weekend in Lawrenceville PA. 50th year reunion for the ‘69 AMC sc/rambler. They had 37 of them there.

I'm with you Fred! After winning last night's Porsche transaxle wrestling match I'm not in much of a mood to mow.

Afternoon all. Was helping a friend split fire wood this morning. At least he had a crew of folks there to help. Getting ready to walk across the tracks into work. Just hoping the layoffs miss our shop this week. Have a great weekend folks and stay safe.
