Talking NY's Santa is coming to town 2025 BS Thread

Hard to believe that we are starting the last month of the year. I hope that everyone's Thanksgiving was good. So let's get things started and let the BS flow.

Time flies by when we are having fun.
Coffee consumed, recycling out for pickup, pup was good, waited until almost 6 to have to go out.
Have to go up to Waterloo to apply for a building permit for a new storage shed. Only trouble with that is that it "will take 5 to10 business days" to get the permit.
Then stop in Seneca Falls and get the 93 GM inspected.

$75 later the bldg permit application is started. Turns out that now you need to have 6 mil plastic as a vapor barrier before installing a gravel base and all 4 corners of the building have to be
anchored to the ground.
After that pain, stopped where son works and got the 93 GM inspected. A whopping 604 miles since last inspection.
Was fun (not) using the back hoe to take gravel from the driveway to the storage shed location. Got kind of chilly at 20 degrees out
Still trying to warm up.

Snow plow has already been by twice. Not that much snow on the side walk. Want to do some more leveling on the shed prep site but.......
Coffee comes first.
