    Drive in Movie on the Water

    Just ran across this today and at first thought what a novel idea. Then the cynic in me starting thinking of all the things that could go wrong. Are these boats anchored and are the patrons ferried out to them? Where are the restrooms when the boats are only six feet apart? Having experience...

Since I was on the...

    So, what did you do today?

    95 degrees out today and I finally decided to dig up a 550 gallon diesel tank on one of my properties that I haven’t used since the late 1970’s. I dug a little ramp on one side but since it was tight against the foundation of one of the outbuildings a lot of hand shoveling was involved. It...
