    Better that way! When I buy a new or newer truck, I'll still have an old truck for firewood and pushing snow around. Don't wanna put a new truck in some ofthe places I've been to get wood! Hell, a new crew cab wouldn't even make it some places I've brought my Bronco!

    Snow falling on Vail Pass, about 42 outside, raining all day, and yes, I have a fire going.

    It was hot today. We were on the lake all day so it was just fine. Going to the Packers game tomorrow.

    Installed an exterior door today. The job took a lot longer than I expected, but went real well.
    Repaired my skid steer and it went much better then I anticipated. Fourth try and I hit the sweet spot when installing the pin. Probably should of attacked more projects the way things went.
    I plan to make the final picking of the garden in the morning and put up the harvest.

    Supposed to be 90 here and humidity rising. very unusual for this time of year. Nights have mostly still been warm, in the 50's & 60's. Although the north country has seen much cooler morning lately. Far cry from a couple of weeks ago when I had the P43 running.

    Can anyone give me some better google search words? No luck on this shower part, its the round ummm (coupler?) in the nuts on the very top of the shower head in the diagram.

    Are you just trying to replace the large shower head portion? Or are you looking for the swiveling ball? It's not called out the exploded drawing, so that makes me think it's not available separately....

    Yep, just the swiveling ball, all I can come up with on google is the entire showerhead.

    EDIT, showerhead ball joint! Thank you concretegrazer :)

    Very cool to help out....those places can make a big impact with kids. Animals can really help heal the soul.

    Been pecking away at the wood shed. Its my first attempt at wood shingles. Maddie, my obviously pudgy little puppy came out to check on the progress.

    20170924_132616-1017x1593.jpg

    Ran the top shingles wild and cut them to length after setting a form up.

    Got them installed before my bride asked me why the dryer wouldn't run.

    Pulled the front and back covers off and cleaned and blew compressed air over the motor. Got it to do two loads before she finally quit for good. Time for a new motor. Doh! :)
