Checked my Megamillion numbers.....no good.  But I did get the Bublette vacuumed, washed, clay barred, and dried by 8:15.  At almost 70 years old....still "the man"😏

I hope you hit it big Chuck, because you're a generous guy that likes to share 😀

 

I learned years ago to not discount the older guys, from being around my Dad. I have a 67 year old brother than can still hit it pretty hard for work. He's retired but helps me occasionally, and I have to be on my game to keep up.

I'm surrounded....

the cows are in town.  Open range. If you don't want them on your property ... simple. Fence them out. In return, we don't need permits to fence.

Cows, coyotes and now these bloody woodpeckers. They have teched up. We don't hammer on poles/trees for territorial purposes. We have discovered sat tv dishes are better[?].  More irritating. Barn swallows are nesting in the porch - again. Interesting how they ended up there.

  it all started with sparrows getting a nest hung on a run of romex ...  Somewhere along the way, the nest was "abandoned" and the swallows plastered it over. Frank, my other "kitten", has moved on to more challenging prey. He spent last season working on how to get the swallows off the ceiling of the porch.  Studied long and hard...

I am quick.....but spent after a short time.  Would love to have more endurance.  Now LF is different.....she can go all day.  Plays tennis in the morning, then rides her bike, then chores.  A real work horse.

Yea I think women are just stronger than men...(didI just say that, don't let my wife see this)

 

Even back in the work camps of WWll, they just worked longer than men. 

 

Around here we would call your LF a "Go Getter"....I take her to work, then I go get her 😀

The K 43 was used for high power, I used a copy of the K 33, I got 4 from Bob Crites, it's a cast frame driver and a tiny bit of the outside edge on 2 sides need to be ground or sanded off for it to fit, just the outside frame.  The K 43's can sometimes hard to find and usually a good bit more expensive than a K 33. 

 

A member here  ClaudeJ1  tested both the K 43 and the K 33 and the 33 went a tiny bit lower but was slightly less able to take the higher power of the 43. I think they were originally designed with the 33 but changed to the 43 for less chance of a problem if someone really pushed them. Coytee might have some experience with drivers ?

 

For high power maby just a inline fuse may be a good idea, others can help with this better than me.

I think the people at the National Weather Service may be having a party, at least one of them. They are predicting a low of 69 degrees Tuesday night  with a 20% chance of snow, and Wednesday a high of 92 with a 60% chance of more snow, probably not.

 

Wednesday should be nice the projected snow should cool of the 92 degrees a little.

Good Sunday morning.

 

Looks like the weather in Indy for the 500 will be hot and sunny, same as here in Motown.  I’ll record the race while listening on the radio outside performing experiments on my HIPs.  See:
