Drove my beater to work today, thankfully the NAPA hub is just down the street and they deliver for free lol.

 

The fox living under my shed had kits.
Been watching four of these things playing.
I am a bit worried for my little dog.
So far, the vixen has ran away avoiding the dog.
And the rodent/squirrel/mouse population has gone way down.

Tierods?

 

Tierods?

Yeah, inner had the nut come loose, pushed the passenger tire just fine all kittywampus for like 6 miles in the rain lol.

I must have not bent the cotter key well enough to stay in, or neglected to put it in altogether, because the nut clearly loosened, then beat the threads right off the stud.

 

I'm clearing land to build an attached garage. I'm taking 27 trees out, 22 of them are scarlet red oak. Probably 20 of them are 60-80' tall, and 18-24" in diameter at chest height. I posted them for sale on marketplace, and a guy answered the ad who showed up with all his own equipment. He's cutting them down and taking what he wants for $100 a log, I'm pretty pleased with the price; regardless of the fact he's selling them at the mill for 3-4x what he's paying me. I don't have to cut shit and don't need to figure out how to transport 40 6,000lb logs.

 

They're worth about $800/tree down here and they take all the trash with them.

 

JFC. Not up here. I had one guy offer me $20 a tree, was showing me his mill rates where he'd be selling them for my $100 asking price. I had a second guy offer me my full asking price, and sold the first load for 3x that he paid me a log. Obviously I'd rather make more money, but he showed up with truck, trailer, loader, and his saw; tipping everything and cutting it himself. I come home from work to a pile of cash and I'm happy, lol.

 

This is why every derelict on the local Facebook thinks they can get a million dollars for their storm damaged scrub pines with a tree fort in them 😂

 

I got $700 for 3 black walnut trees at my house

 

Dug this out of Shea's Ram's right front foot He is my best friend now.

I found it in this little hole he was running around on 3 legs, he is back on all 4 now.

Got running water in my barn and finished digging a septic drain field. Still have to buy a water heater and install all of the plumbing. Picked up a full set of stainless steel countertops and sinks last night too. Barn kitchen will double as meat processing station during hunting season

 

Bought a new, to me, truck this weekend, continued painting on the house, down to just trim and shutters now.

 

Went to UofM to have cardiac surgery on 7/18. I just hope it worked. Not feeling the best at the moment.

I'm still trying to decide if the doctor saying to my wife "definitely not text book" was a good thing or a bad thing.

Depends on the context. You're alive, so it means he was skilled enough to navigate the problem, but the text book had to have taught him enough to do it.

 

Definitely not text book is how I live my whole life.

 

I'm on the search for a dump trailer if anyone is looking to get rid of theirs. Or just let me rent / borrow for 2 weeks.

I’ll be praying for you to begin feeling better.

What lake are they testing in?

 

These downstairs windows all open, but they've been painted shut by 117 years of paint lol.

So idk how I'm going to handle that, because I'd like to get it covered and all looking finished.
