Trailer Deconstruction

While working on the deconstruction of the rotted wood portion of my camping trailer ... I hit a 2" x 4" board with my Thor hammer, it split in half, and the left side flipped up and smacked me in the forehead.  Dang!  Apply immediate pressure to stop the bleeding.  Go up to the shop and wash it off at the faucet.  Don't want my wife to see me walk in with a bloody forehead ... it would scare her ... she'd give me heck about it.  As in what kind of dangerous things are you doing now?  Why aren't you being more careful?  You shouldn't be doing that ... that's what saws are for.  You aren't a spry young man anymore.  ETC.  So there was just a red-mark and a scratch when I went inside.  I told her that I just bumped it.  I got away with it much better than if it was bleeding all over the place.

See!  Nothing to it!

Talkin' about that little spot on the forehead ...

We are down to the metal frame ... and 4 piles of junk in the yard.  2 of those go to the landfill, the other 2 are sold to the scrap yard.  Definitely making progress.

Foggy Night

The rain from last night and this morning is gone.

In it's place, this evening we have LOTS of fog.

Enjoy the eerie photos.  (most of them weren't usable)

looking south on the main road.

a house all lit up.

a pecan grove.

Laptop Tinkerer

My neighbor, Daniel, decided he was going to fix his laptop.

He is now at the "Do you think I can epoxy it back together?" stage.

Something Wild in the Bushes

A "Wild Thing" kitty in the bushes this after noon.

Tonight it all turned into a solid rain shower.

iPod Touch 4th Gen.

I'd love to have one of these ...

maybe next pay year.

A Buzzard Kind of Day

These are not crows ...

they are turkey buzzards 

sitting out the rainy drizzle.

I thought they would look kinda cool as sepia silhouettes. 

That was at camp this morning.  Then I dropped the kids off and visited Lowe's for a new door knob set ... one bedroom had the old porcelain knobs ... except one knob was missing on the inside of the room (and no replacements that I found would work), and it wouldn't latch.  Had to do some adjusting, but got it installed and working.  Took some fotos inside a small house.  And shared some smoked "Boston Butt" with with Bill Murry ... He was home alone eating left-overs (while his wife worked a 12-hr shift at H&R Block).  Still drizzling tonight.
