Hi Tuck!
Back to working on wifie's plant hardening shelter, time to get that done, then the camp.
I have to replace an 8x12 exterior wall on the living room; ordered the material for that, plus starter parts for the deck, and some of the beam and flooring material for the bunkhouse I'm refurbing.
I think I'm going to like Lowe's home delivery service
I just have a standard SUV, no trailer. For $70 they'll deliver a bunch of 10, 12, and 16 foot boards, 14 bags of concrete, 10 4x8 sheets of plywood subfloor, sheathing, siding. Enough material to do the wall repair, couple of the new roof support beams and one room floor in the bunkhouse, piers and beam for the new deck.
Time for a new Bostich palm nailer, it was super when I did the deck and sunroom addition a couple years back, the swivel air inlet is worth the extra $20 compared to cheaper ones. I'm also looking at finally buying a small concrete mixer, $300 gets me out of hand mixing another ton of concrete, and wifie wants to play with some concrete lawn figures this year (she did some small ones last year that came out nice, hand mixed).
Looking like another busy spring and summer

Hay all you dear ones. I have been a bit busy and out of commission. But I still try to check in here daily. Great to know I know where to come to get a warm welcome.
Lox - Anything on the mixer that I should either add loctite to, or silicone caulk?
Not in stock locally, but truck comes in Wednesday.

Sounds good. 1-2 bags is enough per load, and lighter weight should make it more manageable for wifie.
Got a load of materials in, for multiple projects at the lake camp. Gorgeous today and tomorrow, around 70, unfortunately (not really) work is a bit busy, can't take time off. As could be expected, the weekend will be cold
Good morning everyone
It's Friday
According to the weatherman - It might rain today - or not. Might hit 70 or 50 or maybe higher or lower or somewhere in between. Thunderstorms possible maybe. Depends on if a warm front moves in - which might or possibly a cold front - or maybe not.
The only thing he knows for sure is .......

Cool, harbor freight has a 20% off coupon through next Sunday, limit 1 item/day, so I got the small mixer for $120
I went for ship to home -- the only one they had local had badly banged up packaging, one of the supports was rusted/scratched/dented, still in the box. $7 shipping is quite decent.

Drysuit instructor open water checkout dive this weekend. Water's a whopping 40F -- even I may break down and actually wear some thermal underwear
