Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

Went trap shooting with a daughter and grandson this afternoon. Was the 1st time for my 14 year old grandson, and he shot a 18 (of 25)!!!

We all had a good time, weather (and the other club members) were all great. There were even 3 other females there, which helped my daughter feel more comfortable.

Thats dang good. I know guys that have been doing it for years and get that same score.

A friend wanted me to get rid of her dads hydraulic pole saws and clips. Came off one of his bucket trucks. I thought about it and was told there were issues trying to run them off the tractor, But looks like Jim has it working. I think I was told my Massey 135 didn’t have the volume to spin up the power pruner head. After I picked one up I never wanted to use something that heavy all day on a commercial basis. If you want I’ll see if they still have. Her husband is going Tuna fishing with us this weekend. I’m sure they will let them go cheap.

They have to be open loop to run on a tractor. Mine says it right on the handle section. The newer ones run on both open and closed loop by turning the top of the actuator valve.

I thought I’d see a list of Fathers Day gifts? What did you get? My daughter and Son in law gave me two little girls. Chloe 4 pounds 9.4 ounces, and Gracie, 3 pounds 10.6 ounces. Daughter and girls doing great.

I got twin lobsters and some Teriyaki steak tips. I bought $50 worth of lottery tickets and won $130. It was a great day.

I've been trying real hard to pound into my kids head that I don't want them to buy (read spend my money) me things for holidays/my birthday. I don't like knick knacks. So I got a painted rock from my daughter and my son drew a picture of me for me. Which was nice of them..... then I had ro go to work. Lol.

Same here but it is their money. Instead they got me a gift certificate to go to the local Woo Sox minor league baseball games.
