THE Random Chat Thread - AKA "The RCT" - No shirt or shoes required - Open 24 / 7

That's great to hear.
My chiropractor has a sign-keep active.
One thing I have always believed in-get hurt-keep at it no matter what.
Yesterday the Mrs caught a little sight-say what are you doing Pepper?
I'm going to hold that ladder...
Thanks but no thanks dear-I'm good...I actually tied the ladder to the tractor and put my safety in the hands of the 50 yr old gal.

Fixing the chicken's fencing after the tree crashed over it.

Gravity vs angle of the dangle . Times( X) kilo's per sq. foot = try to miss the winch when I fall.

No winch needed for this crawl. Actually it would be great to have a hydraulic winch instead of a 10ton 12 volt.
Went log skidding up the laneway this morning.
Couple of trees maxed out the old tractor
( was pulling them backwards)
Dragging them solved the issues.
Hot today, breeze died off even at the dock.
Looks we're going to be canning for the rest of the afternoon. Peaches are on the menu.

A warm one here too. Turned the A/C on in the truck after about the first twenty miles.
Left a window down partway for the two airs to argue and blend. L.o.l..
Should be around 70 for a low tonight. Which too is warm for this time of year.
Short lived though. It'll cool down after Wed..

I need to put another cabin filter in the truck.
Tore it out a few months ago as the mice pee was well not the most pleasant odor.
Have to figure out why they seem to like the filter to make a home.
I like the smell of Eucalyptus oil, wondering if they don't care for it.
A few drops pre/post filter might help.
I don't care for mothballs, read they used them for executions at one time.🤣

I heard that cinnamon or peppermint might work. They don't like strong smells.

Outside, I've used common Comet cleanser. Can you imagine getting a snootful of that up your nose! No wonder they never came back!! :angel12:

Cut a piece of quarter inch hardware cloth and fit over the air channel openings. That will keep them out of it.

1st & the 2nd suggestion is good.
3rd you struck out.
Vinegar and baking soda is probably the only cleaners we own.

Gee I would have to find that inlet first. :dontknow:
That would involve looking at the owners manual and I'm totally male when it comes to those things.
Detectors not included.
 

Went over to the grass/weed patch after the sun died down.
Dug some spuds and picked the tomatoes

The Midnight Romas are ripening nicely.
Finally got some canning done.
6 peaches 1 tomato

Tomorrow afternoon when the heat is high, I will be doing the tomato canning.
