Did you put velvet covers on the pallet forks lest you scratch that high dollar plywood???

It was only and I say only with a frown $29 per........ :D

[Sedgehammer]

Got some taters in. Trying indeterminate taters that's why the raised sides. Also with good early and late blight resistance. 

 

 

[Sedgehammer]

Got the starlink dish installed finally. Speeds are amazing except for our vizio TV and our Samsung blu-ray player. Laptops and my phone in same room run fast. TV can't play a movie without continuously stopping to buffer...... customer support. Not so much

 

It was cool though to see the dish move around looking for the satellite

I did make my own pipe connection. They wanted like $100 bucks for one

Maybe it's the satellite part but that speed is very quick, faster than I usually get on cable (that is supposed to run at 100mbsp) but we have no buffering issues on anything. When the kids are around we often stream something to each of their phones or tablets and the big tv in the living room with essentially zero buffering...

customer service sent a message about checking what band the TV was on. They want it on the 2g one. i'll see what that is and if it can be done tonight perhaps. got ballgames though, so we'll see

3 of these just went over head. Kinda cool sounding

CH-53.  i used to repair the radar altimeters on them. 

sorry to see the hospital bill!  nice work on the trailer and stuff. 

[aigheadish]

Always in 3's for those helicopters... I don't know why. There was a while when they were flying those all over Dayton for several days. Pretty cool but I also assume they are looking for something. Maybe not...

[mike_belben]

military has lots of mandatory flight hours and training and stuff. i didnt know any pilots being in a repair squadron but its pretty well understood when you live on a base.  they fly them just to fly them.  touch and go's all day long.. just land, take off, circle, land, take off.  that sorta thing. 

[Sedgehammer]

Footins are dug..... ;D



 

 

 

[Sedgehammer]

Beer thirty.....



 

[Sedgehammer]

Another evening. Another beer 30

[Sedgehammer]

[Sedgehammer]

Evening after my shoulder surgery at the  bon_fire

[Walnut Beast]

You gotta behave sometime 😂

[Sedgehammer]

You gotta behave sometime 😂

Yeah, there's that and there's happy wife = happy life..... ;D

[Sedgehammer]

Them's me cuts n pokes. Surprisingly, virtually no pain



 

 

[Old Greenhorn]

Man, it's bad enough that they poked holes all over, but then they added the insult of drawing cartoon figures on you too. (Very poor cartoons I might add.)
 Hope you are feeling a lot better after this (and the cartoons wash off).

[Nebraska]

Well  behave yourself, listen to the wife and get well  soon.

[mike_belben]

Whatd they do in there? AC joint or in the shoulder?  

[Sedgehammer]

@Nebraska yeah, hard to do..... Wife is all over me to do nothing..... That's a first..... ;D

@mike_belben shoulder. 3 torn tendons and the collarbone was rubbing on the shoulder something or another. apparently wasn't suppose to be.... :D
