    Smoking turkey. Mowing grass. Might even be persuaded to drink some beer.

    I break them down and bone them out...then brine them. Different parts take 2 to 5 hours. This will be for sammies for a party tomorrow.

    I'm trying to decide if I want to get a smoker. I spend most of my weekends around the house so it would probably work out good for me.

    All my plans for the daytime were cancelled when they called at 7:15 to see if I wanted a day of O.T.:picard:

    Yes please.:D

    That will help pay for that grapple.:thumbs:

    Now it's time to take my wife out to dinner. There may be a tall, cold draft in my near future.:whistle:

    Surprisingly there wasn't any mold/mildew in the insulation or joist space - don't know where it was going, maybe enough space to make it out the soffit vent

    I tried 4-5 different cleaners, found ZEP tub & tile(5$ for a gallon) breaks down the soap scum bestest of the tested products, still required a nylon brush.
    The hardwater scaling doesn't appear anything will fully remove it from the glass door.
    Tried a spritz of Muriatic acid, strongest acid on hand, and it made no noticeable difference to justify the fumes going forward.
    Lysol toilet bowl cleaner(~10% hydrochloric acid) didn't really do anything either.

    Tried some CLR that I found upstairs from previous owners circa 2000, it was the best at exfoliating my hands didn't do much for the scaling
