Well my few days turned into almost 2 weeks. Bad logic board, they had to order one, managed to wipe my drive then they installed an old operating system. So I finally have everything restored and almost back to normal. So now that I have my photos back online I will start again.

Taking a few days off (hopfullly only) My primary laptop currently will not start up and all my photos are on it. I have everything backed up but hope I don’t have to move it to a different computer. Currently trying to make an iPad work for my needs till I can get lap top fixed.

Not a friend and not even from this state, he is the Father In-law of a friend. I imagine he lacks compassion after they have tore up a few of his hives.

Three local friends have it, not serious so far but have symptoms, all vaccinated, We are vaccinated but though that we may have been exposed and wife has been a little under the weather so we went and were tested, both came back negative. First time to have the nose root rooter, not to bad but could do with out a repeat. If a booster is offered we will get it. Old and over weight, need all the protection we can get.

When we were up North we kept a metal coffee can in each car with some long burning candles, hand warmers, granola bars space blanket and a lighter to get us through a night in a snow bank if we ran off the road. Don't do any prep now that we are retired for getting out but keep lots to stay put for a month or so if need be.

A fellow that raises honey bees uses live traps and the blank approach. He then loads them in the back of the pickup and goes to town for coffee. He stops at a bridge over a creek on the way and lowers the cage into the river to see if the skunk can hold its breath till he gets back. On the way home he pulls the trap up and dumps the ones that can't hold their breath out and goes on home.

Looks like a hand full. Interesting engineering.

A few years back I heard of a fellow that found out he could order sheets of $2 bills. He would buy a stack of sheets and have them bound on the edge like a note pad. He would then take out a pair of scissors and cut a bill off or rip a whole page off to see what reaction he got. Could probably glue the edges on any stack of bills and just rip off a few to pay and get a similar reaction.

I am with the hire it done crowd now. But in my younger/dumber/poorer/cheaper days I would start at the end on the ground and start trimming limbs to lighten up the load at the hinged parts. If I got enough off to where it was hanging free and the hinge still didn't break loose at least you have less hanging out there that could cause a strange twist when it let loose. I would tie off with my tractor and put a little tension on it to be sure it went in the right direction when cut loose. The hope is it would continue to fold to the ground till you had little left to cut off at the hinge. As for the poison ivy no suggestion. I am lucky not to be very allergic but try not to push my luck.
