9/3 - 5: The Island of Angel: Episode five.......
Lunch is over and it is time for trial, Ranger gets up for the oaths. "Hey everyone, you have got to see this!" says Board. Everyone knows that board is usually right so they go with him. Look at this.. An antique looking wagon pulled by two horses comes their way, filled with the most wondrous items anyone had ever seen. Some unnamed can't help it.
Everything on the wagon is a treasure of lore. "My name is Fuzzy and I have something to show you." Pulling out a 35mm projector, fuzzy beings to show the most wonderful places on earth that one can go adventures on. Count sits ,Blue is not paying much attention, there is a huge rock on the wagon "I so want that."

Fuzzy starts the last video "Oh I am sorry, this is on your island.." Wait shouts anjelvape!! In the distance there is something moving, as it becomes more clear Mac is riding his bike. "When did you take this video?" Yesterday states fuzzy. It could not be Mac it was on the other side of the island. More interesting to some was how Mac was riding the bike in the sand, he must be some kind of ninja. As the video ends, a camel goes into the bushes.

JPF wonders "That camel had one less hump?"

Will the Treefam ever find out what is behind the camel's missing hump? What is a camel doing on the island, anyway? What does it all have to do with a red balloon? And what about... Naomi?

@KattMamma Don't forget to add a date & number 1 to this post you can win some great juice...........I love that pic, and you are lucky to have the deer come so close........

Thanks guys - I said the first time I was here that I am not good with rules lol.

Hey, I have a question for you folks. It probably only applies to the older members, but we were kicking around some antique phrases last night and one of them, that I remember vividly from childhood (yes, back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth) was, "Ya buy 'em books and ya sends 'em to school and look; can't take 'em to a snake race." Lannie's father, on the other hand, used to say, "Ya buy 'em books and ya buy 'em books and they just chew the covers." Do any of you remember such a phrase? Or something similar? And if so, what was it? (Obviously depends on what part of the country you lived in, but Lannie and I grew up only 40-50 miles apart, even though I was nine years earlier.)

I don't remember those versions of the phrase, but I heard it often in Texas. There just didn't seem to be one version - everyone had their own. The most common one I heard was just "Buy 'em books and send 'em to school..." ending with a sad shaking of the head.

BTW Fuzzy, I've gotten to know Lannie a little in another thread and I have absolutely LOVED the pics and updates on little Chicklet!!! I love nearly all animals - even some snakes, bugs, and spiders (all but the scariest ones I guess lol)

I paid less than 3 dollars a pack for them. Vaping costs me waaayy more than smoking ever did.

How is this possible? Oh, are you including the cost of buying new shineys that "might not be necessary"? Once the initial investment on the hardware was over, which was less than one month of smoking, and we graduated from buying juice to DIY, the cost is down to about 25 cents per day per person. That is, two packs a day - South Dakota cigarettes run about $6 per pack at the grocery store, X2 per day = $12 x2 people = $24/day. After the hardware purchases, the retail juice cost about $1 per day per person = $2. Now on DIY, the cost is about 25 cents per person per day (x2 = 50 cents/day), or a savings of $23.50 per day for this household. Now that is cigarettes, but before starting vaping, we already found a way to go down from the expensive stinkies to cheaper stinkies: Golden Harvest filtered little cigars (don't taste like my Camels or Wifey's Winstons, but tolerable), bought at the .... store (not even sold at grocery stores or wally world), at $15.50/carton, or $1.55/pack x 4 (for two people) = $6.20/day for both of us. Subtract the 50 cents for DIY and we still save $5.70 every day. Doesn't seem like a lot, but that does come out to an average monthly savings of $171 per month for Golden Harvest or $705/month for Camel/Winston.

Yeah, Miss Kitty, we are spending a lot of time with Chicklet and she is adorable. Snakes, bugs, etc., have their place in the world too. I wouldn't have any for pets, but they are here for a reason and I don't question Mother Nature's motives. The only time I stomp the bugs is when they are in my space. Outside, I leave them alone. Even mosquitos typically don't bite me, so I don't hurt them either whenever possible.

I get along very well with each and every one of "My" immediate blood related family members . . . I have 6 Siblings (Opps - wait 1 is dead & 1 really should be ) . . . I only speak to 1 Sister every so often and a Brother even less than that . . . AND - Then there are the 30+ Nephews/Nieces/Great Nephew & Nieces/Great Great Nephew & Nieces and I get a X-mas card from 1 of them - A Niece who lives in WA . . . "My" Father died 33 years ago and "My" mother who I took care of until she died 8 years ago . . . Most Uncles/Aunts are gone . . . AND - That is not even considering all the Cousins that are left too . . . So - "We" all get along wonderfully, since most of "Us" do not see each other - nor talk . . .
A Definite WIN - WIN . . .

Where do you live that gas is that cheap?

Then I better not tell Ya' that the price of gas just went down today around here . . . $2.21.9 a gallon . . . AND - I just filled up 3 days ago for $2.27.9 . . . NOT NICE ! ! !


BTW: When I was much younger I lived on a Farm for awhile too . . Milking Cows 2 a day by hand, feeding the chickens and slopping the pig . . . AND - That is not everything . . . Not FUN . . . BUT - I can help a little when I come visit Ya's . . .

How is this possible? Oh, are you including the cost of buying new shineys that "might not be necessary"?

One, I don't DIY and the juice I vape is $20+ a bottle and I go through 15ml at a minimum a day, yesterday I blew through 30ml. Two, I have a ....-ton of tanks and have to buy coils for them all. Three, with smoking they didn't have something new and pretty to go with my pack of cigs every week. With smoking I spent around $30 a week or less total. Last but not least I like shopping I get a lot of my vape stuff free and still spend a LOT more vaping than I did smoking. I love vaping though and if I wasn't spending the $ on that it would be going to some other thing that caught my eye.

Never heard from the rental company, they shall be getting a call bright and early in the morning. Went to turn on the hot water in the shower and the knob just kept spinning and then the same thing happened to the shower nozzle. Took hubby forever to get it to turn all the way off and it's still dripping.

Have a great night everyone.

Been enjoying all the episodes of The Island of Angel. When does the movie come out?

I've tried several of my toppers on my new Tuglyfe and haven't had a decent vape yet.

My regulated set ups rock. From videos I've seen, the Tuglyfe mods look powerful. I was even nervous it might be too powerful for me. Quite the opposite seems true. I spent all night researching, but haven't been able to figure out the issue.

Good Night / G'Mornin' Tree Fam!

Do you have good fully charged batteries in it? And what resistance on the coil?
I probably can't provide much (if any) assistance on this as my mech experience is very limited but others here have quite a bit.

I installed a brand new, married, set of fully charged Efest IMR 18650 3.7 2100mAh 38A positive ends up and at .5 ohms it feels weak. I'm comfortable with building and my other set ups rock. Did I get the wrong batteries or what?

Do you have a meter you can check the batteries with? Fully charged should give 4.2V. At 3.7 you probably won't get much. I have ran a couple down to something like 3.3 before.

Where's Shawn when ya need him.
