Amazing how many people do not maintain their automobile !
Weather swings , hot or cold , show many ill maintained vehicles on a hook.
Have Fun , Be Safe !


Good morning John, glad there are guys like you to come to the rescue

The little ones are the ones I like Gerry, the big ones can become over whelming as there is too much to see through the crowd of people.

Happy Tuesday mornin'all. Woke up to rain again this am. That wasn't supposed to happen. Does anyone know how to get rid of barn swallows other than shooting them? They 're trying to nest in my front entrance. I shot one on the weekend, but there's 2 back again. Kalan doesn't want me to shoot anymore. He was a little upset when he found out I shot one. Every day I'm cleaning the nest off and cleaning the S**t of the porch. Have a great day guy's.

The Orkin girl was just here. She said with pigeon's, they use a spike strip. I'm going to try some nail's thru Gorilla tape. If that don't work, I'll try your idea. I've got an old badminton net in the shed. Thanks Gerry.

Morning Fellas. I second the request for rain. It's wrong to say I'm tired of this sunshine and hot weather

Grant, I'll take your barn swallows. We have a few families of them in our barn. I don't mind them there. Worst part is trying to learn their flight pattern. Its pretty neat to watch them catching bugs and flying insects. Get your boy a butterfly net to catch them and relocate them if he don't like the shooting

Still enjoying retirement John? Has it set in yet or are you still thinking that you're on a holiday?

Have a great day everyone!!!

I'm running a mini hoe doing some excavation for a couple days. Pretty much living the dream. I love running equipment. Worst part is a mess of overhead lines and a buried natural gas line that I'm dancing around.

Hope you're getting some scenic bus routes in

Happy Hump Day mornin'all. I hung a Scoobie Doo CD in the front entranceway. We had a bit of a breeze yesterday, and it kept the swallow's at bay till the wind died down at 9pm. I may have time tonight to do the tape/nail thing. Won our game last night 18-1. Only 2 losses this season and only by one and three runs respectively to the same team. We'll get 'em in playoffs. Have a great day guy's. Those who are retired; Try to get something accomplished today.
