I like to back bar, less crap in the face. Especially dead oaks in the mountains. The bark feels like getting sand blasted.

There are two! Parents seem to be hanging around feeding them. We have no shortage of bugs. They work on trying to fly sometimes. Unfortunately found this guy on the front porch this morning…window. Work was so busy Friday (all week really) I was fried and also don’t remember drinking...

@stig sent me a brandy sampler from Switzerland last week. He suggested I try it in a wine flute with a teaspoon of sugar and coffee. That sounded good, but I wanted to use my good whole bean coffee and my French press. Since I use a handcranked mill to grind coffee, it wasn't a good idea with...

Good call getting her son involved. Glad you got a good payday!

Glad to hear you’re getting better! I think we’ll be doing a multi head white pine before the maple now.

Not every day you have to fight someone to keep them from giving you money :^D
