Grizlee howled today.
Grizlee threw up all over the kitchen.

Tandem closeness

New garage setup

And a couple night photos of the CB360

I hate Black Friday

But the car needed new feet...
So I don't have much choice.

Imperialism day!

My favorite part isn't what's in the envelope.

Free fence!

found an old fence on craigs list

went to get the panels for a temp setup at my house

free is way cheaper than new

so that'll have to get me by until i can afford something else

teardown begins

 

is this too much weight?

yes

sorry

Progress

dug a ditch

ran all the conduit (and ground rod)

pulled the giant wires

dads hands know what they are doing better than mine

and BAM!

100 amps of sub panel greatness!

time for garage wiring, then the wall paneling and lights. just in time for winter building of the roach. 

Garage power soon

This used to be 200$.
Now it's wires.

vegan donuts

this was the best, worst-idea-ever.

Apparently I'm supposed to be driving a Benz

Backyard fire season Is on.

It's been a heavy week

I'm done.

Tonight's chalkboard thought

Halloween

I'm not sure what to think about this photo.


We put out candy at 6pm and it disappeared FAST. so I ran to the store to get some more. The shelves were bare but we managed to find a couple things. On the way out I spotted a bunch of bananas. After brief discussion and reflection I decided to get them. Why not give a kid the choice between tiny compressed shapes of artificially colored corn syrup, or an amazing looking, rather large banana. And what could it hurt? Worst case scenario (besides bananas flying through my windows) was that I would eat them myself...

Timing ended up that we had to leave the house with about 45 minutes of official trick or treat time left. Shawna put out a sign and we left the bowl, candy and fruit, on a chair on the porch. What would the state of things look like when we got back?

Well this is what we found.


Much to our surprise (even though I was overly optimistic) 3/4 bananas had been claimed. I can only assume by children.

So, is this good or bad?

Here are the two possible explanations.

1 some kids actually can make good decisions and three of the kids poses brains that might take them somewhere and have a chance to become decent people. There IS hope for this world...

But maybe

2 all the candy was gone and although they didn't actually want a banana, something in their greedy little souls told them they HAD to take SOMETHING. and even if I had put a lit campfire in that bowl, three kids would have burnt fingers right now. And somehow that would be my fault.



I'm not sure that there is any way to know, unless we try the campfire experiment next year...
