This is my life . The misses refuses to put stuff on the countertop . I’ve made three cutting boards that she uses one of those nylon boards on top of them because they are to nice .

It could be worse -- she could be using the countertop as a cutting board!

Took my family to the wildlife refuge today. We saw a dozen different species of ducks, plus several hawks, and geese, turkeys, pheasants, vultures, sandhill cranes…

It’s only wood can be sanded and refinished , I’m waiting for the first scratch just like when you buy a new car . You know it’s going to happen.

Little wood scrounge today . 3 loads like this one wet oak is heavy had to use a hickory counterbalance.

Go put a scratch on the top near an edge. Go on, you know you'll feel better!

There is a wildlife refuge in Bend.
Turkeys, Red Crested Dealers, and Yellow Belly Users, Left Handed Panhandelers, and the Target Cart Creeper. All visable in their natural ellement, flourishing in Oregon's open public drug use laws. No hunting, no harassing, hand feeding encouraged. No Bears allowed.

Took both of these yesterday. The house made me think of the Chevy commercial "Like a Rock". I see happy dog a couple times a week.

I remember about 30 yrs ago
My father in law was in bend and his 16 ft trailer lost the axle out in that area. He decided to tear it apart and haul it off instead of towing. He got arrested for because they thought it was making a mess on the land. Times have changed.

I remember buying out of that catalog. I wish some of those prices were still good.

Is this the first end of the year file cabinet cleaning in a while?

I have a bunch of the old catalogs in my file cabinet that I'm hanging on to. Part of my 67-72 GM Truck literature collection. Someone else will cleaning my file cabinet some day

Rich84 · 01-02-2024, 11:51 AM

It is true. My wife had a little side business doing clean-outs for a realtor friend of ours. It really changed our perspective on saving stuff. We threw out people's hobbies, careers, collectables, etc. In 10 minutes we would figure out and try to guess what they did or were into. It was actually quite depressing. Especially now as I watch my Dad prepare for his departure.

**Steeveedee** · 01-02-2024, 04:47 PM

I can usually tell when someone around here has died or is moving. There will be one (or more) 30-yard dumpster(s) at the curb in front of their house. I keep telling my wife we shouldn't leave this for our sons, but she still has sweaters from when she was a teen. It's gonna be a real mess. Neighbor to my west fell and is in a nursing home- and ain't coming out. He has a friend come and get his mail and check on the house. Neighbor across the street and one east had a stroke. If his garage door hadn't been open, nobody would have seen him and he would have died right there. There are people I don't know in his house now, from Florida. Could be squatters, for all we know.

Didn’t feel good about it but I primed the Hemlock boards today . All that beautiful grain covered up

Guilty as charged. Should have said "really deep cleaning".

I do save these as reference material however.

Me too. That's exactly why I have saved the catalogs and magazines I have. It's why I bought the file cabinet.

I gather things that please me because that's how I like to live. I'm not living to die or living to make my death more convenient for others. There also won't be a dumpster. My things will be sold in an estate sale

Nice bike ! You riding it ?

No, I wish. Not my bike, either. this is my first time back here and I see I should've added text, not just the picture. I took that picture at the Chesapeake Chapter of AMCA meet in October. I have owned one Knucklehead in my life. Last year, '47.

Another one from the meet

**Boog** · 01-04-2024, 11:12 AM

When I was a teen my buddy bought a knucklehead partial chopper. He sort of finished it and we rode the wheels off that thing. I sat on the hard rear fender with a skinny little sissy bar to hold on to. It had shorty pipes that forever vibrated loose. It was loud and great!

**Palf70Step** · 01-04-2024, 11:18 AM

Wife and kids suplemented the shop. I have never used a battery ratchet before. I have alway been OK with manual stuff. Extra batteries that will wok in all my tools. Glad hey paid attention to what dad owns.
