What a Week!
This week seemed very long indeed, and by comparison the weekend hardly began before it was nearly over.
I am learning to use an computerized electric metal brake for the first time. It requires a different approach than the old style hand brakes, but if you have alot of pieces to bend up it really is a good thing to have.
I massacred a finger Friday right before quitting time… really made my day let me tell you. Smashed the tip between a metal coil and the spool it goes on while loading it up on the machine for Monday morning. It peeled the tip back and bled all over, yay! Then when it was time to bring in all the trailers for the night it started pouring rain. A great finish to a crappy day.
I finally wrote a new article that was published on AC today. It was on the visitors I had in the backyard this morning, a momma and child Dolphin pair, swimming around in the bayou in our backyard! I even managed pictures….

The yard is nearly mowed since last I wrote, the repair shop finally finished the carb rebuild and I got it put together last weekend. Now if only I could get Robert to volunteer to finish the job….
It has been cooler here, cooler as in the mid 90’s… funny how that doesn’t sound cooler, but it is.
