Good evening Ford Tinkerer's.
Got started on rebuilding a flower bed today and while doing that BBQ'ed a turkey.
Mini-excavator made moving the railraod ties a lot easier on my back.

We’ve been coming to Diamond Lake fishing and hunting for a great many years. Used to deer, bear and elk hunt Bailey, Rodley, Dog Prairie, Devils Canyon, Skookum, et al….We usually spend 4 to 6 weeks a year.

Our ‘Bravo’ Compound is just 50 miles away, half way between here and Bend in Klamath County, so we get down here a lot.

Where do you hang your hat at?

Good evening Oregon & everyone everywhere else.
Howdy Allen, it’s great to hear from you.

T Storms rolled through this evening. Got kind of interesting with the storms around. Made for some picture opportunities though.

Good morning Oregon truckers happy July! It's going to be a Hot one today. Started the day at 72° headed up to 100° plus.

I wish I was camping with Jim, it looks cooler there.

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else.
And so it has begun….You might want to reconsider Tim! We have a camp full of children. Somehow we’ve ended up with some 5 to 10 year olds that I have no idea which camp they are even out of.

Safe trip Allen. Made a trip over Hood the other day and I swear there were a bunch of out of staters as well as a few in staters that were hell bent on committing automotive suicide!
