What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

Some places will need a touch up, but except for needing to finish the back door frame, it's all blue now.

 

Unfortunately none of that is making it here. I've had about 1/8" in the last two weeks. my area has been in abnormally dry (and at times moderate drought) for a year now. Been dry enough that the town was able to sell the land next door to a developer and he filled in with sand and rock. The stream going thru the middle of it dried up so they could claim that it wasn't wetlands. Regardless of the fact they brought in 20+ loads of sand to keep the equipment from sinking, plus a whole lot of riprap for the drainage ditches they put up all around the property. I am so sad thinking that the giant snapper that lived over there probably didn't survive the project.

 

Have a very happy Birthday Canadian border VT !

 

That sounds like a shady deal was made.

 

Thanks bogieb; it rained here yesterday at least 1.5”. It went north of you?

 

Happy birthday to you. Enjoy the day.

 

It’s been a weekender here as I am soon to be officially old. And predict OFG in future

all that I can live with and still smile my official favorite gift so far

 

Yeah, sounds really shady. Wetlands are wetlands. Even in a drought. There will probably be a lawsuit over that.

 

Yes, happy birthday Lyle!!!

 

Lots of work done. Looks good. Bet it will be nice to be working with your feet on the ground soon.

 

Thanks Tom

I got my birthday wish an MRI scheduled next week

 

If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck . . .

Amazing that the town held onto until the drought, hu?

Even more amazing, the realtor wanted 22k for it, but the guy told the neighbor he paid 36k for it at an auction no one heard about - and he was the first bidder at that huge bid. Other people were there who were only prepared to offer a couple grand (less than I offered for the property). And the town is down to 1 selectman because 2 quit.

 

It might have hit northern NH, but remember, I'm in the southern 3rd. It was heavily overcast all day, and wicked humid, but that was it for me. Not expected to get any rain until, at earliest, Wednesday.

 

And the owner of the home that is built there will suffer the consequences, when there is an abnormally wet season.

 

Sounds like the ducks are out of their wetland as well. We know where they went at least...

 

Always something or other needing a ladder

Thanks, it's almost complete looking now.

 

Stayed inside today. Refinished a tired pine bench for the kitchen. That's about it. Hot week ahead.



Looks so much nicer. Not bad for being saved from going in a dumpster.
