Bud's just opened a new range just a couple of exits east of you.

Does anyone know if Smokey Mountain Knife Works carries any good quality auto knives in stock?

My wife and I saw him with his Christmas show at the Ryman a few years back. It was a great performance. It's too bad the audience was filled with rude and inconsiderate people that took some of the shine off the experience.

I might be in for the invisibility. That could be pretty handy.

A great movie from a time when they still made great movies. And they did it without CGI. A feat that, apparently, can not be accomplished in movies today.

Good points TDR and I could elaborate. It's not on the market, yet. The land is leftover from a subdivision that never really happened and it's not really build able, I would need to cut a steep drive to the top of the mountain, it'd be narrow and steep. No way to get concrete up there except helo or bags.
The land had already been select cut so the only harvesting I would do would be for firewood. I have searched similar properties in the area and came up with my thought of 1500 on that.
The main reason I'm considering it is it borders my property and I don't want some wing nut to get it and do who knows what. The property line boarders my home and someone could actually look in my windows from there. Granted it's 4wd access only but you never know what people will do.
If I had the cash it wouldn't be much of a problem but I don't, so I'd rather not pay more than needed.
I will draw up an offer with taking all of the factors into consideration, put it in writing and mail it to him. He's in a different state. I appreciate the input folks! Truly helpful!
There's your bottom line. What is that worth to you? I would pay more for property adjacent to my property than I would for other property just to keep some wing nut out of my hair.

I bought a property similar to what you describe in neighboring Grainger county for about $1600 per acre. I was after wooded, rural land where I could shoot, camp, ride 4 wheelers, or generally just play in the woods. Recreational property. I made a spreadsheet tracking the 23 properties that I looked at before buying. The average cost per acre based on all of those properties came out to $2457.70. The lowest price was $1222 per acre and the highest was $5210 per acre. This was in late 2011 to early 2012.

I have spent a fair amount of time working in France. It's a country of many fragrances. Not all of them are good. This man is working to make France a better smelling place.

The collective knowledge here is probably greater than the rest of the interwebs combined. In fact, Oh Shoot probably holds more knowledge than 98% of the internet on his own.

That doesn't sound like the heat pump or thermostat is operating correctly - you might want to have it checked. You could turn off the breaker to the heat strip. My 60 amp (!) breaker is off until the gas logs quit.
I can set the delta with the programmable thermostat. Unlike most things in today's world, this operates just like I tell it to.
-
In my system, if the delta between the room's actual temperature and the thermostat's heat setting exceeds two degrees, my emergency heat kicks in. I turn my heat down to 64 degrees at night and kick it up to 70 in the morning. The emergency heat will be on until room temperature reaches 68 degrees. That happens pretty quickly. The heat pump carries on alone once the delta is less than two degrees.

Very good! I really enjoyed that. Kind of got my metabolism fired up for the day. Like audio coffee.

Publix sells a "French Market" branded chicory coffee in a red can. I'm kind of a coffee snob, but this is a go to coffee for me when I want an honest-to-goodness strong cup off coffee with some legs to it. It's great stuff and definitely worth checking out.
Café du Monde is great when you're in the Quarter, and honestly, I could start every morning sitting there reading my paper, eating beignets and drinking a nice cup of chicory infused café au lait. Community Coffee is right around the corner from there as well. Both have good chicory blends that are available locally, but the French Market brand is hands down the best.
I've been to Cafe du Monde a few times. Great place. Too bad it's in N.O. Although I'll pass through N.O., I'll be working a bit further south. Fresh seafood with chicory coffee for desert, mmmmmmmm.
There's no Publix near where I live but I'll keep my eye open for the French Market brand.

I have to go to Louisiana in a couple of weeks. I'm sure I'll have a little chicory coffee while there. I don't think I could drink it everyday but it's nice for something different. That seems to be the only place I run into it.

I love a good cup myself. I picked up the habit in Europe. Unfortunately, they're right about our coffee and beer tasting watered down. I have a Gaggia espresso machine that will use the coffee pods with the right attachment but I've never tried one. I kind of enjoy the process of grinding the coffee, getting a proper tamp, and extracting the delicious brew. Yes, this machine has provided me the "incredible and abundant joy" of which you speak.
If all you're used to is regular drip coffee, I'm certain the Keurig coffee maker is a vast improvement. It's a slippery slope though. I think the Keurig is like a gateway coffee machine. It can get you hooked. Soon you'll be wanting a more expensive machine so you can experiment with blends of beans, the proper grind with different beans, achieving a proper tamp for the particular grind, and getting the extraction just right with the perfect creama.
Congratulations on finding the difference between coffee and really good coffee. There's no turning back.

One of my kids got me a Kindle. I use it to run Pandora into my stereo system. I've never read a book on it. I'm a constant reader and I like paper.

Very good. I hope nobody from her school sees this. They'd probably feel an intervention is in order.

I made the final cut today. Then I cleaned up my mower and put it away for the winter. It seems like it was a little later this year than in recent years.

Congratulations on the new family member! A nice looking fella there.
