Good Morning Everyone,
First off I'd like to say......Peter A.....I hope you are recovering well from your kickback accident. Prayers go out to you for a quick and smooth recovery.
Woke up to a WONDERFUL 67º F this morning!!! What an AWESOME temp to wake up to after those 104º + temp days. We even got some much needed rain last week that broke our local drought. Everything looks much better when it's all pretty and green.
Been working with my boys in taking their old tree house down. They are too old and much too big to "play" in a tree house. We are going to recycle the good lumber from it and make a picnic table for the back yard. This will be the boys first official woodworking project and even though they say they don't want to do this? I'm making them do it. Teenagers are typically on the lazy side at various points in life and my 2 boys are no different. I told them that they need to learn how to use tools and how to take something from idea to finished product. I promised them that I'd leave the calipers in the drawer.
My boys and I did some 'wrenching' on my motorcycle on Saturday. The valves needed adjusting and the coolant needed changing. That took us most all day to do as it was "our" first time doing all that.....and yes, it was a learning experience for all of us.
Well, that's it for me, so what did YOU do this past weekend?
Best of weeks to you all.!!!!
