Ok, to catch up a few things… It was rainy and wet Friday so …. I smoked some butt…
on the grill of course…
Reasonably tastier… a bit dry this time, got to get some roasts with more fat…! and less time before I stick them in the tinfoil pan… ? but was good, tasty, and I vacuum seal froze a bunch so we now have packets of 1lb each to pull out when ever… getting ready to put some in a pot and simmer as green chili too… the pulled pork makes pretty good green chili.
Saturday it was cold, cloudy and windy so not many turned out for the local Ron Shirley car show but some of the same attendees as last year were there…
I stopped for a short walk around and grabbed a few pictures… big year for white cars?
Didn’t do much else for the day other than some Ham Radio and watched a few games on TV… bunch of close calls for some winners that were supposed to win by more?
While playing radio I visited my toilet in the shop… and I had a visitor in there…
one of these guys decided the toilet was a good place to hibernate?
Maybe he figured it was his very own swimming pool? not sure but I helped him to find the “outside”. I am trying to figure out how he got in there ? the room is pretty well sealed but he maybe have been in there all summer or most of it? just now found him near the water?
Yesterday (Sunday) I didn’t do a lot either… I did go out and get a pet door for the garage so the cat can come and go and I don’t have to leave the door up… didn’t take long to install…
and right away all the pets used it… but I have the flap taped up till they get used to this being the portal… till I put the cover on to close it up ha!…
I got up this morning and the cat wanted out… figured it wouldn’t last long as it had been raining and would rain some more… but she took off to the woods? when I let the dogs out later I noticed she was headed to the other side of the yard from North to south… she does go to the wooded areas out away from the house a lot now… I went for breakfast and when I got back, guess I didn’t get the door closed tight as I was cleaning some things, the door popped open and the cat came in… ok, her usual hunger break to grab some food then sleep for a few hours… but when I went to close the door there was something in the garage, just inside the pet door…
The cat has found her purpose but I don’t need trophies in the garage… so I hauled it out to the trash… guess she finally caught and killed a varmint… I had seen her catch a mouse but she just wanted to play with it, not end’s it’s intrusion in the shop… this time , this one was deceased… and sure glad she didn’t need to bring it in the house to show off…
It is another rainy day here, and windy as well… seems I remember fall weather like this back in ???? 1972??? maybe… I remember having to go buy a surplus military poncho to wear since it would drizzle and rain nearly every week at some point… still have the poncho… wish I still had the 69 El Camino from back then? maybe someday I will buy another one to just drive around in?
