We both know the answer to that lol

 

[Hedgerow]

When do we start?

There are some folks that have such small amounts of walnut that the bigger logging outfits aren't interested...
Enter..
Two dumbasses that are willing to do it...
We'll see if it's worth it...

Walnut prices are capped until the sap stops running.

That's what I told him.. Worst case scenario, we waste $100 worth of fuel and a weekend to get a load of walnut logs...
I've done way worse than that...

Don't worry, it'll be months before we get to it..

It is pouring down hard here now....again.

Just got home from another awards banquet for my daughter. It is her senior year. Tonight was the "Superintendent's Banquet". To get on the Superintendent's Honor Roll you have to have straight A's, I don't think you can even have an A-. Out of 250 seniors there were only 6-8 whom qualified. They honor students from 4th-12th grade. The banquet is huge, several hundred in attendance. They invite all the local dignitaries, parents, teachers, etc. They honor retiring teachers, present teacher of the year award, and present the kids with their certificates.

Congratulations.


Good Morning all its Friday.

You would not believe how hard it rained here last night. Here is an excerpt from an article I just read online:

Storms that spawned 51 tornadoes in several southern Plains states late Wednesday also brought torrential downpours in central Oklahoma so heavy that a 43-year-old Oklahoma City woman drowned after becoming trapped inside her underground storm cellar.
"It just flooded with her in it, and she couldn't get out because it was like a river coming down on top of her," said police Sgt. Gary Knight. "I don't recall it ever raining like that before."

We had 1.3" in 15 min last night... Morning all! Lurch, we misses you at the gtg!

 

[67L36Driver]

So, it cost me seventy five bux for a recoil housing for this MS 441 to find out it has 155 psi compression.

Ring Ding Ding! We have a winner!

Now to figure out which of the two carb throats to dribble fuel in to prime it. Yikes! WTH!

441 runs and oil pump pumps oil.

Running fat at low speed even with the idle speed screw way in.

I need a carb guru....

What's Black Walnut going for? A neighbor of my Mother has one She's talked abut having out. It has a nice canopy, is about 28-32"DBH and doesn't have branches for the first 16' or so. Should make some nice boards, but I have no clue on how to figure scale(s)...

$1 to $2 per BD foot.. 36" DBH x 10' long = ~600 BF I think.
