First pic... Yesterday I posted i bought cilantro plants. Today i went down the road for lunch, came home, got out of my truck, took one step and looked down. I have cilantro growing where i park my truck!!! 🤣 Came up volunteer... Bottom pic... last year the county did work on this gravel road...

I found a bin of these alarms at a dollar store dirt cheap, got a bag full of these things. They are for cabinets, doors, windows. Simple magnet operation and they are loud!!!!! I thought... what about some fishing line across a trail at night or as a picket line while camped overnight. A buddy...

Stopped in town for an oil change in my old truck. Not a reassuring sight… an oil slick. It’s not from a few drops of oil. This slick is from either the oil filter or drain plug not being tightened properly. :eyeballs: I watched my oil pressure for the first few miles, everything was ok.

Trip town, got lunch, went by the nursery for plants. Bought some pea and okra seed. Oh, stopped at a friends on the way home and got a pound of maggie butter. Maggie is her daughters Jersey cow. Found out she's selling the Jersey and buying some odd breed. I think she called it an 'AG' cow. No...

Trip to town, went by the nursery. I got all the pepper plants i wanted except bell peppers, they were out. But i got tabasco, cayenne and jalapeno. Got some Basil and cilantro plants too. Got dad some roma tomatoes and some kind of purple heirloom tomato plants. Something different, worth a...

Me too... But most of us didn't get past the first word of the op. 🤣 The second made me think about these. The trappers bible might be something i got at a gun show. To the point but not in depth, 60 pages or so. The second one by hawbarker is a real trapping book, 380 pages. Lost of good idea's...

Over the last decade large farm equipment has become more and more modular. Saw a show on combines, the power plant was a modular plug an play unit. Service guy came out to a combine broken in the field. Ran diagnostics then replaced the power plant with a lift, only took a couple hours. Soon...

Sorry you're having to go through that. Most vehicles have similar. Even my 02 silverado, easiest way to swap the rear spark plug on the passenger side it to loosen the motor mount on that side and jack it up. For a spark plug!!!!!! 🤬

Fried some catfish tonight, made a salad and opened a can of corn.

Glad he's getting help! Hope he does well. There was a sad story here though. A little town up the road had one homeless guy for several years. Lived under a bridge, refused any real help, many tried, churches, individuals. It took years to get him into a group home setting for mentally...

Indeed an honor, I'm proud for her. Don't worry though, it takes years of living to understand that kind of sacrifice. :)

Made it up to 87 today. 71 on my porch now, 10pm.

Being sick while traveling is the worst!!!! Happened to me several times over the years. Once in uhaul moving 1000miles, spent 3 days in a crappy hotel with only the strength to get vending machine food. Even had emergency surgery while working in france… I didn’t even speak the language! 🤣 I...

Sadly you’re right. Seems I was always hearing of a sailor or marine that got taken while I was in the service. The whole base was talking about how twisted that situation got. It was brilliant on her part. As the only legal guardian of the child she got to stay in the US for another year at...

I know of 3 people to made that leap, knew one really well. Sort of common knowledge even to the guys that these marriages of convenience expire when it's no longer convenient (or necessary). Basically, as soon as the green card turns into citizenship. There are also other pitfalls... I knew a...

For me, the funniest part was the thought of when those japanese tourists got home and looked through their pictures... And tried to figure out who i was!!! 🤣

Camera's have never been my thing. Had a decent pentax when i was in the Med and middle east but didn't know how to use it. If i had a regret... The sky was just amazing at sunset and dawn while at sea. There's too much dust in the air near egypt/coast of africa. The Sahara throws tons of dust...

For me it's commercial jingles, always the weird ones too! Like the Spongmonkeys in Quiznos sandwich jingle. I was so glad they finally dropped that ad campaign. Miss the little guys though! 🤣

@Senedra Here’s that pic I mentioned days ago. Taken at sea somewhere between Sardina and Monico, it was winter and cold. Not a great pic but the thing i remember most was that the sunsets/sky looked so different there. The sky is just different in the Med, different shades of red. Even blue sky...

I was surprised by the size of Mona, saw it while working in france. Spent a day wondering around the Louvre. Most of the art i didn't care for. I found that the people there were more interesting. Even saw a group of japanese tourists walking in a straight line and the person in the front had a...
