Mornin all.

Rain and hail just after running the dogs in and out first go around this morning.
Up to about 1/2 inch hail. Had a couple of them barking it was so loud.

It rocked pretty good a couple times yesterday too.
My rye should be all happy. It's been doing good with just enough rain and is established well.

A city run today to pick up our gals ashes.
Posts about crashing vehicles makes me want to dodge major stampede times.
Which means I'll probably end up in the worst traffic. l.o.l..
hey rc-thanks for the info-where are you

I was able to get behind the scenes for brave wilderness, and coyote Peterson is a really genuine good dude....Cristina and I met on instagram when she worked for the mosquito control. One day after meeting her there was a knock at the door and it was her checking my yard for standing water. So we met in person in my back yard, and agreed to collaborate one day and hit the mangroves for an adventure. During covid we met and I gave her a list of cool stuff us locals do that not many people know about....island activities.....it was gonna be for some discover Florida Channel shows. All these ideas were transferred over for a collaboration with her and coyote.....then I got invited to do a treasure hunting video, and wow.....some incredible offers and ideas are in the works, and I have a great opportunity. This tarpon episode was one of the ideas I put forth for them......my video will come out soon or later, and im scared and excited at the same time !!......we all had a blast and I learned alot about how things are done on these video shoots !!......and they paid me !! This is some kind of crazy ride im on right now !!

Excited big time, for you!

Into the red metal sorting today.
Found a container of draw pulls.
Turns out the pile on the top right is mixed.
Brass handle, flashed tin backers.:BangHead:
Oh well a few pounds only.
Will see if it's an easy to seperate.
Steel bin is just about done.
Just one skid of mixed to sort, irony aluminum to process.
Hopefully Friday, ✋️
Tomorrow is Thursday.
Not going to happen in a day, silly man.

I drive past this place a few times a year.
Once I stopped in and was totally gobsmacked on how much stuff there was squirrelled away. Yard, house, barn across the road, another farm that the owner said there was even more stuff than this one that was open for the public.
I asked him what would he wanted-$1,000,000.00 for the 3 farms and all the contents.
I got home and told the mrs-showed her the pictures

Lots of stuff I don't want to do therapy which was recommended to do. To socialize with people that deal with what I do and similar things a program they have they also recommended I do, meds recommended but I'll ignore that one.

Ya , I don't know your condition.
Only of some types that may or may not relate.

I'd still put you to work... Not to keep you and your mind busy , as much as to see more getting done here! L.o.l..

Work is good and staying busy. I've had not much to do so I go find places to metal detect even if I think I'll find nothing as it keeps my mind calm

Gas powered trimmer sat about 15 years. Maybe more!
The bag with the brushcutting sawblade and the original string spool and misc. parts had a hole in it.
The shiny nuts and parts showed up in the dirt and weeds enough to pick them out . But of course the one nut I needed was missing after I wheeled the trimmer and bag around the house from shed to driveway to work on it.

No problem ,I'll grab my pinpointer and find it.
Pinpointer light worked but no pinpointer buzzing near metal. Hmmm.
Grab my "good" spare battery from my detecting pack/bag and same thing....
Grab my new back up pinpointer and same thing.
Tear the house apart except for smoke detectors and no more 9 volt batteries...

Cram on wrong threaded nut to hold saw blade on. Naughty naughty.
My mind was getting less calm by then apparently.
Added fuel/oil mix and it ran. Beast!
Tossed it in the truck and continued Easter egg hunting for tools.

Halfway out to worksite I realized I forgot my tape measure.
Today I'm still looking for my tape measure I was wearing and using the day before I forgot it....
Had about four at one time around here . I'll look in the other truck again next. Calmly? Maybe. Maybe not!
