Thanks for the link, Steve. Good to see Bill G. get a black eye on this one. Too bad more folks don’t fight back.

Now if the other 49 states would follow suit. But I suspect the insurance companies and their pet politicians will soon get this overturned.

Thanks for the link Steve. Don’t really know what to say about this one. Course Cat was at JSU for 17 years but didn’t take near the load this guy does and part of that was taking masters courses.

ABC News: Smoking Outlawed in ‘Marlboro Country’

Line up here for the showers folks. Not that I am necessarily for smoking, but I AM against the government taking more and more of our supposed freedom away in the name of what’s “best” for us.

Not doing much today. Overdid it the past few days I think. That and the pollen have made it hard to do anything today. I suspect the pollen is the reason I haven’t been able to think lately. No thinkie no writie. or something like that. Have been able to do physical things somewhat just not thinking things.

Got the walking bridge started. Using landscape timbers. Took the old pallets off and cut 4 foot sections and spaced them about an inch apart. Moved one of the power poles over about 10 inches to better fit the 4 foot decking. putting 8 foot sections along each side and will attach the hand rails to uprights braced on 8 foot cross pieces located at each end and at about 7 feet apart. Total of 4 sets. Putting a pair of benches out over the creek, one along each side of the walkway and about 8 feet long and 2 feet wide. Hard to explain. And to build. Still working it out in my head so I don’t have to back up and punt too many times.

Got the bush hog blades sharpened and the gearbox filled. Cut below the dam, most of the roads, the east side of the hill powerline clearing and about half of the west side. Then the rain started again. Spent a couple of days cutting. Still got more to do but tis far too wet to try any more today. Plus the rain that keeps hitting today isn’t making it any easier to get anything outside done.

Think I am going to walk a bit before the next bout of rain hits.
