Well the big day is approaching fast.....I think Wednesday Thursday we will be back in the fishing boat. 6 months of repairs and endless battles with insurance agents, surveyors, and lawyers, and were finally ready to get back to fishing. I can't wait to blow this popsicle stand and get out of here. Hey ARC....guess who I'm gonna get to see....remember sads669...Kevin in long Island. Hopefully that will be our first trip.....I have the jasper knabb treasure map to share with him. 49 treasure sites and wrecks from Freeport to memory rock!! Woooo hoooo !! Including another bounce spot for the lucaya wreck. ARC says I havnt been sharing enough treasure stories so there ya go one of my bahama projects !! Look up jasper knabb....you'll be surprised by this guy. When he went to jail, I rifled his yacht when it was for sale. Working under the dash of the bridge i found all the documents and hidden treasure charts from a massive illegal treasure hunting operation. Ive got the mag surveys and everything. I think he has recovered treasure hidden as well in Freeport !!

Good morning ARC, Bart, Dave, Jim & Rook.
To do or not to do?
Hard one in figuring out this am.
Need to string another 200' of fencing up to complete the berry patch.
But the forecast/radar says rain starting this morning.
The radar says it's raining now-yet it's dry.
The boots were heavy with mud yesterday even having no rain-but if it rains-oh the clay will stick like a wet Tootsie Roll to the boots.

Jim,
Well you get to live dangerously and go for it or just take it easy and then kick yourself if it doesn't rain.....

Working on a large cuban mahogany right now. Just got set up on it this weekend. Since I got on Instagram log sales have picked up. Have 2 logs im working on selling......if all goes right I should clear 8,100$ and thats selling at 30$ a board foot. Some are double that price. We are so lucky to have the cuban mahogany niche market almost to ourselves. In ongoing negotiations with shell lumber too. Would be nice to ink a contract for 3-5 logs a year with them. Cool weather and a reorganization of our shop has us fired up to cut more wood !!

Very interesting video Jim.
I can just imagine struggling to get that cut slab into your house to make a kitchen island out of it.

Good morning Bill.
Well Jim, it looks like indoor jobs for you for the next few days.
Let me grab my paintbrush and I'll be right over to help... just kidding, I don't remember where I hid it!
Dave if I was to wait for you to show up with the paint brush-the odds in winning the "Powerball Lottery" would be higher.
Jim,
Well you get to live dangerously and go for it or just take it easy and then kick yourself if it doesn't rain.....
Ya I hear you-but-but....
Bill I'll share this little tune that becomes an ear worm for me every time I'm doing the task in a bad weather event. I just hum the tune to myself it over and over, as I'm getting it done.
Though there are times when the snow/wind/rain is hammering me out in the fields and I'm getting a hunt in-just swinging the coil to the beat-still beats most things in life.

Jim, you do realize that you keep quoting lyrics from country songs right?
Chris Janson Lyrics - ‘Buy Me A Boat’
“Yeah, and I know what they say,
Money can't buy everything
Well, maybe so,
But it could buy me a boat
To float down on the water with a beer…
I hear the Powerball Lotto is a-sitting on a hundred mill…
Well, that would buy me a brand new rod and reel…
And it could buy me a boat, it could buy me a truck to pull it”
Buddy you just need to admit it... you love country music and you secretly sing it in the shower like I do.

I think I am part lizard...
Anything below 70 and I start to move slower...
Below 60 and the slowness gets even progressively slower...
Below 50 and I completely shut down... hibernation automatically kicks in.
Below that and I feel like Han Solo in that scene where he is frozen solid in Carbonite.... errr or whatever than cold space stuff is called.
Hmmmmm
Wait a minute................. hm,mmm,
Errrrr......
Ahhhh ! ! !
Yes,,, that's it... I CAN REVERSE that process ! ! ! Lets see.... One case of those cans should do it.
***ARC searches internet for best case price of expanding "great stuff" spray foam.
Yes... found one... One case of spray foam on the way !
Instant hibernation blanket... Han Solo style ! ! !
Errr... wait...
I see they make a "fire resistant one".... err maybe change order to that...
Don't wanna catch fire while applying it to myself... OR whilst in hibernation.
