Went to visit some neighbors yesterday and on the way, found tire tracks north of our home where someone parked and looks as they walked back towards to our property to watch us. Wasn't the crazy lady and by the width of the tracks I have good idea who. Apparently they know where the cameras are...

September and we are hitting 100°F today. No reason or rhythm, farmers almanac predictions or old wives tales as to what the weather is doing, just going with it and preparing for the worst while hoping for the best is the best you can do. Despite lack of rain and such the well is still...

Oh you can learn all you want and know all you want from high school, but you need a piece of paper to prove it is the problem. That's where college comes in, if you can prove you remembered how they wanted you to answer the test you win. Online college is worse and I speak from experience.

Seems all professions that work in the elements are going this way. Even mechanics are hard to find and it's getting harder. Over regulation is killing things too. You need to go to college now to drive a semi, no driving on your parents farm/ranch and going to get a CDL when you turn of age to...

Going to be 95°F today with 100°F tomorrow, yep still clinging onto summer. Still haven't found an injection pump for the excavator, they are obsolete not made anymore so we got a 26k lb hunk of iron going to waste till used one pops up for sale. Looks like it's best when I do find one it's best...

Welcome from SE Montana. Anywhere near Clarksville TN? Lived out there a bit for Uncle Sam sort of, spent more time in the sand box than being home.

Can't buy processed deer, antelope or elk and we got all three running around.

Either go into work today or go into work Monday on Labor Day, I'm going into work today since I know boss man is off with family and won't be around, neither will his dad who is on a fishing trip and the kid "mechanic" is off being a kid which makes it quiet and peaceful there. Dead line is...

I'm technically retired with pension, could sell or keep all my stuff in my current line of expertise and never do anymore. Just some have drive to more than just that. We don't have vehicle inspections here, just DOT ones and they don't bother me, sure pull me over I'm going to sit here laugh...

It's get worse out here, there is times where the carcass is where ATV , tractor or human isn't pulling it home so it must hang in the nearest tree. Average mule deer buck weighs 150 to 300 lbs here some up to 405 lbs. Had the wife haul home each quarter as I quarter it up miles away in a ravine.

Out here I mounted a hoist inside the pole barn at the peak cause when deer season rolls around, it's not nice skinning a deer 25°F with 60 mph winds over a trench I dug doing it at night as it's always the evening when I get them. Use to use a backhoe like this, but this is better with a fired...

We are going to have to swap pork one day, I'm curious as to how that tastes on wild boar.

They don't pay enough for me to be full time for what I'm capable is the problem, as with any "employer". So I will keep it at part time as I need things done around here for myself. Their $30 an hour is a gap filler to my $150 to $200 an hour when I run my machinery or run a service truck out...

Turned in my paperwork for my business to do work for the place and just like a symphony as I expected it all played out. Secretary (his wife) says he wants to talk to you about "maybe" having some work for you soon, I get out to the shop and it pours out. "I have a lot more work needing done...

I see the problem, all the water drains to the road with no ditches to get rid of the water, especially with the road lower than everything.

I'm a hoot to be around, lets go do this, nope we first analyze it, measure it, test it, analyze it again, compare test results, get a control subject first then lets proceed. Wait it's off a millimeter/gram start over. No that's hypothetically impossible based on Newtons laws or Coriolis force...

Technically you can. First pull a vacuum on a sealing container, as they breathe out use a vacuum to suck it up into the container. If we can pull refrigerant out of appliances and they sell canned air at high altitude places with other various welding gases, we can do that.

High of 73°F with winds over 40 mph for next two days, yep here comes Fall. Don't worry summer will show back up on Monday with highs of 96°F. Lets see I'm for once waiting on other people to get things done, injection pump being rebuilt and the differential getting looked at to be possibly...

More like a glitch in the Matrix

Any port in the storm as the saying goes. Got the job, well not a job more of a contract on call part time as diesel mechanic back where I last worked at. This time I'm not on their payroll, this time it's going through my LLC/DBA which helps with taxation since this state taxes income. I'm...
