PSA:

Iffn you haven't cleaned out your dryer vent in a long time it may need it. My wife asked me to check it after she heard a friend had a fire due to a clogged vent. We have lived in this house for almost 20 years and I have never done this but I do keep an eye on the 4" vent to the outside which has a screen to keep bugs/animals from getting in and I know it flowed freely.

Went on-line and bought a vent brush with extensions up to 15 feet which attaches to a drill for about $18. Started from the back of the dryer and went 8 feet. Went outside and did 8 feet from that side. Total ball of lint that came out was about the size of a soccer ball.

Layabout time. 😇

We've been making ours with boneless pork shoulder. Did it once with bone-in but that was a slight disaster. Gotta try the PB next time.

Going to an analog to digital conversion service place this morning. Have an old reel to reel tape of our / my last h.s. football game where the announcer reads off every Senior's name. I was also ejected towards the very end so will be able to re-live that moment. After I found the tape and told some of my teammates, they were excited to get it converted and even offered to help pay for the conversion.

Haha, no. Me and the other guy wouldn’t stop hitting each other after the whistle blew…well after the whistle.

After the game and back at the school, with the team gathered around, our head coach said he was proud of me ‘cause for years he had at least one player get ejected and he had to squeeze till the 4th quarter of the last game for it to happen. We all had a good laugh.

Years later I found out that the other guy had to WALK BACK to his school, in full gear! He was a junior but didn’t go out for the team the next year.

I could have warned you it was coming. Big winds here yesterday but calm now.

Morning folks. How's the foot Drafter?

Foot feels ok.. some pain the evenings but not too bad. One bad side effect tho. I went into this with a torn rotator cuff that's been woken up by the crutches.. losing strength in my left arm fast.. getting old sucks... 😟

Looks can be deceiving.

The sun is currently out. The clouds roll in over the next hour, then the rain, followed by snow and high winds over the next 48 hours.

Got to take the good with the not so good.
