Hi Mom havent meant to be a stranger just workn too much - I accually had a hummingbird this mornn, must be lost

I saw a pair at one of the feeders last weekend but haven't seen any since. I haven't taken the feeders down yet though...I read to leave them up until it freezes for the stragglers so that's my plan. The other bird feeders are getting hit a lot more. Suet and seed seem to be going down faster again.

Wonder what Mayberry has for a special today?

I need to go out and move or adjust my trail cameras. I moved them a bit yesterday and today the cards were empty. The corn was all gone so something had to have been out there and I saw hoof prints but they may not have been from yesterday/last night. May need to check the batteries too. I haven't changed them for several months.

I paid for my enjoyment. When I got home the daughter had made her outstanding meat loaf with fried tatters....yup, I ate it all and my suger went to standard earth orbit.........

Hey mechanical types, are Champion air compressors decent? We were able to negotiate including everything in the garage with the house. In addition to several air tools and a full chest of Craftsman and Snap-On hand tools, there was this compressor. It's super quiet and seems to work very well, but I've never heard of the brand.

Change the oil.....good to go.

Yeah I know. I was a bad bad boy but damn it.

It's been a carb fest for the past two days in the ER. Donuts and candy all over the damn place. It's Halloween season now, which means there will be candy on the counter 2 feet away from me for the next month. Must have self-control.

Damn man! I still can't believe you ate 2 cheeseburgers, and fries to boot!

It happens. I'm glad you are aware of the problem now and can address it.

It was a with drawl thing. The fun police was in Florida and I was 126 miles from being watched.

She is near wheels down right now. She will be back in control when I get home from the range today.

So you've at least heard of them then. Seem to be high dollar new, but don't see much about older ones.

This guy was a diesel mechanic by trade.

When we were looking at compressors, Champion kept coming up as a good one in the comments from others and reviews. We had a Quincy ordered but they never actually shipped it and then we found an old one from a friend that worked for way less money so we ended up with it. If we have to buy one at some point, it will be Quincy or Eaton.

I went out to check the cameras and got about 20 steps out the door. A dozen turkeys were filing into the back yard with my guinea out of the orchard so I decided to wait rather than disturb them. They walked right in front of one of my cameras so I'll see if it picked them up. I may have it too high in the tree.

Going back out with my regular camera. The sassafras trees are really pretty right now so I figured a few fall pictures might be nice.

Ive got some sassafras sitting on one of my benches at home mom, I might have to make some this coming weekend.
