Joyous Sunday morning Montana, Roy, Bud, Tim, George and all the TT restoration Cowboys! Looks really good and I am betting far more sound than when it was made!
Beautiful day in WV in the 70's, full sun, RH about 40% a 2-5 mph breeze and it doesn't get much better.

Roy did you get any of the sever weather in Great Falls the hammered Yellowstone and Red Lodge? My thoughts and prayers to everyone in that area!

We did not get the severe weather That area got.

Yesterday a severe thunderstorm went flying through the region. Went north of us in Great Falls. West of here about 70 miles at Willow Creek Reservoir near Augusta, a lady was struck by lighting... Mercy Flight Helo flew in and took her to Benefis Hospital here in Great Falls. Don't know any other news about her.

That is perfect weather....

I just don't see the need for the huge and expensive weddings.... But, each to their own......

Bud... When is the baby due..... ........

When Theresa gets married..... $1,000 and that is it !

Howdy Gents and Daddies.......

Nice church service..... then had to find some more adhesive for the fiberglass. HD was out of stock. couldn't find it elsewhere. So, I had to switch to a Gorilla product.
Then we went to breakfast. By the time we got home it was almost 1400. Sat to rest before getting to work. then it started to rain. No work on the TT today.....

Tomorrow (Monday) I work at HD 1330 - 2100 hrs....... I will have to get some work done on the TT in the morning...... The owner has asked if it is possible to be done by Thursday.....
If I didn't have HD duties, it would be easy.

Have a good night's rest ......

Morning Sailor, all MT and friends. When one (or 2) have a wedding such as the one we just attended, it wasn't JUST a wedding. It was also a musical event as the majority of those attending were people in the entertainment business in and around Washing ton DC ! There were 3 other bands playing as well as the one they are in. No, they are not famous or big recording stars but popular in the area. They played at no charge. And I'm sure the venue were it was held gave them a heck of a deal to have it there. The alcohol business must have been quite brisk ~! The bride and groom aren't KIDS either, both in low 30's with real good jobs in/around DC other than being in weekend entertainment. PS - They also just bought a house in DC !

Hope the weather and HD job allow you to complete the TT to comply with the owners wishes !

Good morning to all the great Cowboys and Patriots....
The cowboy coffee is yummy this morning...... Break out your raincoats......
We have been getting rain since yesterday afternoon. Supposed to continue through today. We could use a week of this !

The TT owners texted me last night that they are making plans to leave town on Friday. The are moving to Arkansas. The last word was "The end of June"
With HD work this is going to be difficult. I do not want to rush and be sloppy or skip little things.
Outside work on the TT is not going to happen today due to rain. I am going to get some inside work done before my HD shift at 1330 - 2100
I can prime and paint the new interior plywood paneling and trim. Plus cleanup some.

Long day at the Orange Store...... with the rain, it might be quiet.
Lynn and Theresa are abandoning me, the doggies and cats...... They are going to Texas to visit Lynn's daughter and family and see the new great grandbaby.
They leave 0600 Wednesday morning. Return the 4th of July.
I hate cleaning litter boxes for the cats....

Have fun today and stay out of trouble....
