Summer in Duluth GA

Angie and I took the sports car to one of the many parks in Gwinnett county to walk. We saw signs for "free food / Comida". Being that I am always up for a snack, I decided to see if I could get some. Sure enough, they are handing out Breakfast and Lunch kits. We got a "lunch" and ate it in the park. I was pleased that there was no political literature in the bag only the normal commercial stuff for the products and the company that assesmbled the kits. It was a weird expereince. I have no idea of who these meals were intended for. I entered the Humvee in the Duluth car show. That was fun. It actually won second place in the "pickup" category. Car shows are like that.. somewhat self-congratulating. We signed up for drone home delivery. Although it is very unlikely we will ever use it. This squirrel was particularly tenacious on the feeder. I am sure the birds saw it as a spectacle. The bobcat came in quite handy this week, both for some str...

MetalWorld -- Scrap Metal Recycling Section I went to the scrap yard today. I got about 60 bucks for the crap that would normally be thrown away. It is a new scrap yard. I have never been to it before. They were pleasant (for a scrap yard) and fair (for a scrap yard). I did a few other things. I am making a auto waterer for the pigs, I boiled down more birch sap, lubed the tractor...22 grease fittings, all in impossible spots. I think I relaxed a little too. Marv and his wife Donna came over to meet the professor and his freinds. I took them for a drive around the property and showed them our world. It was nice. Fauna is not better, only worse. She did not come out of her house today. We are waiting to hear back from Cornell on whether they want her for research. The chicks are happy. The weather was great. It was a day off.

Shebeen Cookie: Birthday From Hell Well it is almost over. It really wasn't as bad as it could have been. But, I can tell you certainly, I have had to really work at getting over the emotions of some scenes. Some of the things I am witnessning are unbelievable. I am thinking that they are making be better and smarter. I hope I can use these lessons for greater good. That must be the focus. You will never know for sure. That is why there is faith. I am 43 today.

Alpaca Forum at AlpacaNation Work has been tough on me lately. I am jam packed with meetings all day tommorrow. I have something going on in the evening from 6:00 to 9:30 and I have to get to work early to take care of some projects. It is going to be a long day... on top of that it is my birthday. This does not sound like the way you would want to spend your birthday. I will get up at 5:30 get to work before 7:00 work to at least 5:00, drive to Owego and get home at close to 10:00 pm. Is there something in this for me? "I don't know. I really don't know." Then he asks, "Why are you doing it?" The answer is, "I don't know. I really don't know." We have talked to the vet about putting Fauna down. If my birthday wasn't jam packed with hostile meetings and other crap we would probably do it then. Life sucks right now. What we do with the body is a significant issue. It appears she should be put down with the other animals so they c...
