Yup. The town has had many brands over the years, and I'm quite sure the crew would agree.

Back in the mid 50's the town bought a couple of FWD's ( made in Wisconsin, I think ). They were beasts. With 4wd, they could move snow several feet deep up and down these hollows better than the others. They ran them well into the 90's until parts were made of unobtainium.

I hope the guy that has my place leased likes scurs, leather and ears as he's fixin to get some hybrid vigor/new genetic heterosis whether he wants them or not.
Someone's bull is "cruisin the neighborhood lookin for 'chicks' and I let him in on my place to keep him off the highway and out of people's yards.




(If I hadn't opened a gate and let him in, he would have got in anyway, tearing a fence down in the process)

Consider them yours, Willie. Canada Geese may look majestic while flying in formation, but on the ground they're nothing more than super-pooper machines. City parks here are overrun by these damn things. Can't walk or sit anyplace where these birds reside without watching out for copious amounts of slimy goose shite.

yep. new sticks and fresh mud on an old lodge and their little 'this is my territory' mounds of mud grass and debris in 3 different locations. All point to at least one breeding age pair.
First sign I've seen of any since the spring of 2020.

break out the conibears..
never underestimate the power of the mighty conibear 330.

I spent a few hours at the Glendale Folk and Heritage Festival today. I listened to a guy playing a Weissenborn, a lady playing a hammered dulcimer and lots of banjos, mandolins, fiddles and guitars.

I didn't take any pictures or video today, but here is a video that I shot at the same event a few years ago:



The city used a screenshot from my video to promote the event: https://visitglendale.com/e...al-saturday-march-5/

Probably sounded a whole lot better than a hammered lady playing a dulcimer.

I know the feeling. Regular gas is now selling here for the equivalent of $6.18 (US) a gallon... ...and going up daily.

I just passed an area where the police had roped off a section of the canal, about a half mile from where I took the picture of the geese above. The news says they found a body. That is the second time in two years that I have passed a scene like that along the bicycle path. That's life in the big city.

Oh, when I do ride or drive, I still enjoy it, I just don't take unnecessary trips with the prices as high as they are.

Finally getting really started moving.
We loaded the 1st trailer load yesterday and Jane and my youngest son made a quick one day round trip out to Lampasas Tx to put it into storage.


I spent most of last week making wooden crates and boxes for my shop stuff and it's all boxed and labeled but that will go on the last truck.
Amazing what you accumulate over the years. I found that I have 137 screwdrivers.

The log splitter that my brother built over 40 years ago quit while my son and I were helping a neighbor clean up some beetle killed ash. It spends all it's life outside, but has very reliable. The fuel hose had deteriorated, so I cleaned the carb bowl on site and replaced the hose and filter. It ran for a spell and died so we fetched it home. I found that the brass float had a crack and was half full of gas. I thought the hose stuff had got in the needle and seat and caused the flooding, but the float was the real culprit. I repaired the float and all was well. We did a driveway test on tough crouch pieces before heading back over the hill. This this thing is a beast compared to the one you buy at The Home Cesspool, ect.
He built this from a lot of reclaimed, recycled parts, so I thought I'd show off his work a bit.

I was sitting over by the Glendale airport this morning and saw two interesting planes.

The first was a Pitts (or something like it). As soon as it got airborne, it started climbing at nearly 45o, then snapped into a hard turn and flew right over me.

The second was a Mooney painted like the AZ state flag. The vertical stabilizer was the sunset and the bottom half of the fuselage was dark blue.

My oldest son was at work when he was told that his house was on fire.
I 'm not going to to say much now as the investigation is ongoing, but a neighbor across the road saw his ( as of the day before) ex GF leave in a U-haul van in a hurry. He said 10 minutes later the place was fully involved.
The firemen found the remains of his dog, Which my son later gave a proper burial.
The area paper comes out once a week. Today I looked to see if there was anything in it about the fire.

There was this.



Stuff like this doesn't happen much around here.

The carny vendors on the midway were makin a killin on lemonade and 'large' (320z) bottles of water. $4 for the water and $15 for the lemonade, but over on the local vendor's area, a regular canned cola was just $1 and the VFW and 4H were giving away water.
I spent most of my time watching the softball game until Jane drug me over to the bandstand and insisted we dance 2 step at least once.

Sister back in East Texas texted me today to tell me she got 3 1/2" of rain last night, and power was out on my road most of yesterday and again today. I don't miss that part but do miss my family and friends there. Woke up this morning to 59deg and the high today didn't get over 80. My skin is drying out & chafing from the lack of humidity here. We're loving it but in 9 days or less, the work begins moving all our stuff out of storage and into the house. Not looking forward to that.

I first ate it in Puerto Rico decades ago. It was a little differentthan the texmex version, using pork instead of beef and a tomato base gravy but basically the same thing. Then out in San Angelo in the mid 90s, I discovered the Mexican version and it is absolutely the best of the Mexican type stews. Some places use a lot more potatoes than others, but it's all good. The trick, is browning the flour coated beef cubes good to get the Maillard Reaction but not so much it has a scorched taste. Made properly, it should be brown in color, (color of cumin and chili powder) not red or tan/white.

Every county has one in MN. Demo derbys, Tractor shows, Animal shows and events, concerts, etc. Classic stuff. I don't think cities do much like it. But the MN State fair is similar and held in St Paul.

A neighbor down in the valley has done the hay on our old place for the last several years. He partnered up with another farmer up in North Franklin. It used to take us a week or more to do 90+ acres of hay. Now they do it in two ( not counting drying time),

David got this mower last year and its the first time it's been here. 32' cut width. It's really to big for the smaller 20 acre meadows on these hill farms.
Looks like I'll be doing more bush hogging to clean up the hedgerows.

David got this mower last year and its the first time it's been here. 32' cut width. It's really to big for the smaller 20 acre meadows on these hill farms.
Looks like I'll be doing more bush hogging to clean up the hedgerows.






Hell no. I've seen way too many movies with a machine like this, and they're all rated R.

We also had a guy get sucked into a tree shredder about 100 meters from my house. There was nothing left, and there is now a park bench with his name on it where it happened. I want nothing to do with sharp spinny things.

I think I'm more excited / interested in the gravel and plants in the parking median. I love me some mid-engined sports cars... but I've always been fascinated by Arizona and New Mexico landscape (which I know are uniquely different from each other). I got a taste of it when I lived in San Antonio for 4 years, but I've always wanted to live in New Mexico or Arizona. I own some land in New Mexico... but the wife wants nothing to do with either state except to visit on vacation once in a while, even then... she said she was "tired of always taking road trips to New Mexico and Arizona." Hahah...

I am seeing the USA for the first time in 2.5 years. In Washington DC on my way to Knoxville, TN. Still good to be home.

Well, that is certainly good news! I had been wondering if you were still stuck. If it was me, I'd never leave the house again.
