    Got 15 sheets of drywall hung this evening. Shorted myself 3 sheets because I forgot about the hall closet.

    Decided on a whim we have cabin fever and are headed out west next week. Black hills of SD for hiking and generally not being in this house.

    I had a flat tire on I25 in NoCo years ago, pulled off the highway waiting for help (no spare, took it out for more cargo room since I was delivering those years :emb: ). The Blue Angels were performing there. It was breathtaking!! The sound, sight, all of it. Glad you caught it :)

    They often practice above the white mountains here. They shoot flares, barrel rolls, even do that sonic boom thing that shakes EVERYTHING!

    The best is the A10 warthogs that fly literally over the treetops over by my cousins/ aunt's and uncles houses over in the western part of Wisconsin, they fly from Fort McCoy. That's crazy when they are that low scares the sh!t out of you if your just dinking around in the woods and they buzz you. We get flyovers from the Blackhawks in West Bend at the Air NG station there they do all sorts of training exercises. Usually a lot of hovering with rappelling and "rescue" drills. Where I used to work, we'd get F-16 flyovers from Madison, Wisconsin. Which is the same base, 115th that these jets flew from today.

    You're welcome. I usually post devotions in the "Thought for the day" thread, but decided to share a few elsewhere. Glad it reached the right person...HE is always on time.

    Funny this should be a topic, my cousin posted pictures on FB of the Blue Angles Covid-19 #americastrong campaign flyover that he took yesterday. He is a photography professional so has the equipment to take some really nice pictures

    I was sitting in a deer stand one evening when two dual rotor helicopters flew over close enough I could see the crew's faces. It was loud.

    Morning all. headed out for our walk before the rain hits - if it does. We were supposed to get pounded yesterday and only got spits. Everything needs rain around here.

    I think the burning season ends this evening. There's enough left in the boiler for one more run of DHW....supposed to flip a switch and go from highs in the 50's to highs in the 70's tomorrow.

    More drywall after work....can't wait. Got the windows jambs done this AM along with one sheet on the hall closet. Only 2 more pieces to go...have to leave one wall open so I can get the shower into the bathroom.
