It was rotate day at my place. Moved all the boats and MC to their winter locations, fired up the snomo's, and couldn't resist running my Skandic around the field a couple times. Wife was standing in the picture window when I parked it, I motioned to her to come a nd take a ride, but she just shook her head and went back in the kitchen. She's processing our apples into pie filling today and peeled about 1.5 bushel, and made me an apple pie. Brought me Grilled cheese and soup down to the woodshed while I was cutting firewood. I got about a chord of wife wood (short stuff)cut and split and I'm kinda getting a handle on that log splitter. Had a couple 20" diameter logs, one Oak one Ash, cut in 20" lengths, I could barely pick up, so split some off with the maul so I could get them on the splitter. Cut a real nice burl off the Ash trunk for my brother, who makes turtles out of them. He kinda took over alot of my Dad's hobbies and shop, after his death.
When I went to move the riding mower, of course it had a flat tire, fixed that, and the snowblower wouldn't start, next project day I'll deal with that.
I'm gonna change tires on my truck first thing in the morning then check traps. Hoping to get the last of my beaver contracts done, so I can put my dog box on the truck, and the water isn't getting any warmer.
I've got a pet Red Squirrel that's taken up residency in my wood shed and log pile. Cash has been terrorizing it all summer. Today while I was eating my lunch, it jumped off the lumber pile onto my plastic chainsaw bar guard, which was balancing on a length of 2x2. Bar guard flip out from under him, and that crazy squirrel did two complete body twists in the 3' before he hit the ground. He immediately ran under the lumber pile and didn't come back out for a couple minutes. He must have been embarrassed, because when he came back out he was all red faced!
