Good Tuesday morning Washington, Tim, Wayne and all the crew. It was a splendid 4 day weekend for me but now I must get back to the Sammich Factory a 3 day work week.
Today will be about 72° and much needed rain moving in this morning and lasting all day according to the Soothsayers crystal ball!

P.S. The Rib Eye was wonderful, sorry it was all gone when you got here!

Good morning Ken, Rod, Wayne and anyone else stopping by.

Started the day 38° we currently have bright sunshine.

Lot's of things to do today, one of them is doing some wees whacking on the hill side across from the shop, it's needed it for a while. I'm going to try and get some shop time in as well.

I need to run downtown and pick up a new tank of Argon for my tig welder, I ran out yesterday. I thought I would try the gas that is on my MIG welder Argon/CO2.... It doesn't work, but it sure makes a spacey looking arc. It looked like something out of an early Startrack show.

Evening Tim and crew. Warm here but got some stuff done. Not too pleased to have the little bugs in the air already! One thing I discovered about MIG mix gas is that it last longer if you turn the tank off when finished! Duh! Makes you feel so smart when you find things like that!

I have left the Oxygen and Acetylene on before and lost a bunch.

Well, today didn't turn out as planned. I didn't even look at the weed eater, Maria handled that end of the duties. I while back I over inflated the rear tires mainly the right one, they are both filled with Rim Guard or should I say over filled. So today I decided I would drain some of the Rim Guard and lower the pressure.in the tires. Boy, that took a while. On the second tire it wasn't bad, but the first one didn't work as planned. I finely got them drained enough that I could let air out, 10 gallons of Rim Guard later. It took up most of the day. I did manage to do a few other things in the shop while the Rin Guard was draining.

Here are a few photos.

I'm sure you have seen those endless commercials about supplemental coverage.

I certainly have. I have got what seems like pretty good insurance through the company I retired from. And as far as I can tell it is at a great price.

Good morning Washington, Tim, Wayne and all the crew. It will be a ThongTastic Thursday with mostly sunny skies and near 90°. I should stay home, don the thong and work on y tan!

Tim, An early Happy Birthday and Anniversary!

I was fortunate to be able to keep my State insurance and it automatically converted to Medicare Primary and it secondary! It was a no hassle switch for me!
