SShhhh Keef....not supposed to tell them how we really act here...do not want to scare off tourist trade. FFA ...I was there for 4 years as well ...elected Sentinel 3 years...we had trips to the State Fair and LSU Rodeo every year...took a brave soul to haul 40 boys fresh off the farm to the City lol.

I dropped my rolling ac unit! It made a huge crash and plastic went flying. I guess it's best to leave it in the floor....

 

[hollowpoint]

That does not sound good...hope it was just a removable part popping off

 

[novitius]

As days go by I sway the wife's opinion more and more on moving away from the city. That sounds like good hunting to me guys. When I get the urge, I get the urge. I go take a walk, see what I come across. I usually bring something home. I never was good at sitting still for to long. Blinds and ice shacks are not my style lol.

Keef it's all transferable skills! You know, the new economy!

Y'all do your civic duty down in the Hot Part and share your favorite recipes for feral pig? Let me know when the roast is, I'll bring a keg of some good Yankee IPA

Thanks Rose! This kitchen was built from restaurant furniture I scored at auction, contents from thrift shops, and I plumbed it to disappear below the level of the floor if the town assessor got too nosey about how many units are in the building lol. He's a pain. Its totally not to code except for gas work, but I love working in it and so far the sink has never backed up haha I still suck at plumbing.

This is why I love technology older than I am... this thing sits up on its butt better than Dog ever so subtly begging at the table! Die cast zinc, weighs about as much as a standard brick, and just won't give up. I think its a 50s sunbeam. Tank!

Ok back to the meatloaf project

 

[novitius]

I guess it was just a filter cover lol. I was trying to put it up on a platform about 18" high. I set it down, it turned on as I turned around and it slid away! Holy sheep! It's ok tho! I'm so stoned most of the time I didn't even realize there were 8" socks at the floor. I almost bought a bunch of ducting...

Dam Nov !-- Don't be doing chit like that !
HP- I was only in the FFA for 2 years but I too was the one by the door one year !-- Last 2 years of high school I was in the work release program or whatever they called it -- Half day of school then off to the tool and die shop to run a milling machine !-- Making aluminium extrusion dies !-- Then on Fridays I had to take a load to Dallas for heat treating -- Closest place U could get Coors beer in those days -- Load of parts go to Dallas for heat treating and load of Coors come back !--

 

[Keef]

I'm glad I backed everything up in water -- This generic dirt killing the plants -- After the 1st of the year there won't be no more excuses -- Find me the dam Bat Cave !-- I got chit to grow !--

 

[hollowpoint]

Through this door passes many friends of the FFA...It is my duty to see that the door is open at all times and to welcome them.I all so assist the President in maintaining order and strive to keep the meeting room comfortable

Had to go food shopping, lol. We ate all the cookies and other holiday stuff my sister sent me. Drank all the milk, too. Dogs have fresh bones and are in heaven. I have jars of weed that have been sitting around for awhile. Finished off Jack Herer and working on blue cookies

HP that is a noble pursuit if everyone had the patience, work ethic, and plain ol tribal knowledge of a farmer, the world would be a better place.

 

[hollowpoint]

Absolutely SA...humble beginnings are the best...I love that 40 horse power mixer you have....I have not seen one in years...let alone in use...those things can till the garden or bash a burglar and never hick-up!....Pine-Apple upside down cake fresh out of the oven...coffee.......dinner menu is in order....smoked pig chops ...green mixture...spinach...red and green Swiss chard ,tat soi, arugula....sweet potato wedges baked.

 

[stinkyattic]

Heck your dinners always sound so wholesome and delicious, I'll bet you are the star of potlucks too. How long til mustard greens come back into season in the Hot Part?

 

[umbra]

Darn, new coffee maker, DEAD.

 

[hollowpoint]

Mustard is in season now...a winter favorite that is high in C...Solstice is past so next month is time to start transplants for the veggie garden.

I got a rig in mind to produce micro greens and baby greens -- It would produce a lot more than I would need --
I might build it anyway -- just something like a rack for trays in a cafeteria with room for maybe 20 trays one on top the other spaced by the rack - put one those RE light strips above each tray --put a tray of watered greens seed in a slot -- Shouldn't take but a few days for micro greens and a little longer for baby greens -- I know how to do it but I don't know how to find a market for them --

I guess U could do bean sprouts that way without a light ?-- I think they got bean sprouts all wrong - instead of munk beans --I think pinto beans !-- Same with that tofu -- Using the wrong bean -- U make some tofu with some good southern red beans and maybe a little pork -- The whole south would be eating tofu !-- except not that stinky kind !---That's nasty !

 

[2RedEyes]

Found this rack in a little pud in Tahoe City, I needed a new pipe...

 

[Keef]

Nice "rack" RE - does it control humity too ? -- Cedar ?--
OK so I'm high !- I was flipping thru the channels and saw them sprinkling some water on a baby's head to baptize it --
I think that is cool and maybe the way they should do in the southern churches -- Ole preacher down here will hold U under water while he talk awhile all the while U almost drowning !-- U know ?-- That ain't right !
Maybe just a quick sprinkle and a little Latin and call it done ?
