Good Afternoon Cowboys, Sailors, Rustlers and Patriots......

Beautiful morning....... Feet hit the deck at 0530 hrs..... The little doggies an I napped on the recliner until 0730.....
Coffee and practice reading the lessons for this Sunday..... No amount of practice was enough.... Acts 2:1-21 I should of said as I came to the part with all the names of the tribes, " You read then because I can't pronounce them".......
Lynn & I helped serve communion and then had goodies after service. We remembered to wear red clothing

Stopped at Home Depot and purchased flowers to plant today and Deer repellant to try and keep the Deer from eating the flowers......

Cooked a yummy breakfast once we got home..... Now, 15 mins of play time, which is over.

I will resume work on the TT..... until it rains.... The guess is about 1600 hrs today.

Have a bunch of fun my friends and thank God for this wonderful day that he gave us......

Merry Monday morning Montana, Roy, Bud, George and all the crew. Glad you had a great weekend and some TT time.

A Cessna! You have very high expectations for her Suiter!
OH and remember anyone can drive forward but only the great drivers can back! Dad had me backing more than driving forward in the first year of driving around the Lions Club park!

Howdy and good morning to all the great Cowboys, Rustlers and Patriots....

The morning is starting off with gray clouds, light sprinkle and light winds.... 55°F and headed to 64°F.
So far the day isn't what I want to work on the TT..... I really want to get this done and the weather is being a jerk
I didn't get anything done on the TT yesterday.... uncover and it would rain..... cover back up. work on the yard in the light rain. got fertilizer and iron spread on the back yard. turned on the sprinkler system and discovered water bubbling up from underground. I can work on that in the light rain..... I do need to pull the wheels off of the TT and take them to BigO to have new tires mounted. Going to jack the TT up and put 4 jack stands under the frame.

Lynn and Theresa jumped ship..... going to the fabric store. Theresa is going to make new curtains for her room. This will be a good learning experience for her.

We had a nice baked ham dinner last night..... I earned a few points for that

Enjoy your day Gents..... Good to see ya'll stop by.....

Howdy Neil....
All is well with us. Back to the normal aches and pains. No excitement on the health front....

Lynn is going to teach some summer school in another week.
I have more than enough to keep me busy around the house. Right now, getting this Travel Trailer ready to hit the road for the owner is high priority.
Have some fun......

Good morning Montana Cowboys!

It has rained off and on for the last few days but today the sun is shinning and not a cloud to be seen, 61° at 0845 local time.

Roy, I have made a few things, mainly brackets for the mill and I few small repairs. I just started making a little tapping hammer to use on the mill, I'm waiting now on a piece of Delrin plastic for the other head. I forgot to get a photo of the copper head setup but since I didn't have any copper, so I used a copper pipe cap and pressed it onto the aluminum piece that I made and faced it so looks a little better. I need to talk to the metal guy, see if he wants my metal chips.

Nice , Tim. I remember one place that I worked at , that they designed the cutters to chip the metal instead of "curly-ques" ,that way more could go into the scrap bin.
