Almost finished my mudroom renovation project just need to build a cover for the baseboard heat and add a short step for the kitchen door. I replaced the 4 doors, T & G on the walls and ceiling, 3 coats of poly, also relocated the light to the center of the room and added a switch when you walk in from outside for the new light fixture (only wanted to do this for 12 years, never understood why they did not put a light switch there, only having access from in the kitchen doesn't help at all when you are trying to unlock the door when you come home after dark and forgot to leave the light on). Also pulled the boat out of the bay for the winter

Took a road trip to Cayuga Lake in Ithaca, NY yesterday...Another huge college town and people come from all over the world to see the water falls and hike the amazing state parks there. We hiked into Taughannock Falls and it's so dry we walked in right in the creek bed, and there's just a trickle coming over the falls right now...Then had a outdoor meal at a restaurant on the lake. First meal out in 7 months, and probably the last for a while.

Has your upgraded security caught any trespassers?I saw these before after I got robbed of my outdoor crop, and I was thinking about buying some. Only problem is I also have a ton of wild life. But yeah, ones with a loud bang would be great...might wake my sleepy ass up!
But how dumb are these guys...If they are casing the place, to steal a plant that tipped me off? If that plant wasn't missing I would have never looked at the cameras and wouldn't be the wiser. Maybe I am over thinking things, but thieves are out in full force right now! Yeah they don't want to come in while I'm home...the 12 gauge pump is loaded with number 1 buckshot, just point and shoot...and I won't be shooting any warning shots.
But that would get messy since I have a few plants about 4-5 weeks into flower....I wonder if meth heads make good super soil? Prolly to acidic

No, and that's a good thing. I really think the guy(s) who stole the houseplant were just porch thieves. I'm glad I didn't have any tools laying out under the patio. And I didn't put any weed plants out this year, which was a mistake...It's been the driest summer we have had in years!
I am forced to do some serious house cleaning today...My youngest sister is coming to visit with her new baby, 7-8 months old. It's not terrible but I have been lax on mopping, and most everything, lol. And away we gooooo!!

Wasn't quite that bad, which i suppose is an accomplishment for the day already. I spare you all the details.

Just curious, why are they in pots instead of being in the ground?No problem @hillbill !
Love the fish story and smile!
Everybody is getting stuff done!
Looks like CO and AZ are on fire now too
Cleaned the pool in preparation for the heat spell. Trimmed back the plants that were impeding my access to the pool equipment.

I planted a red maple in a 1/2 whisky barrel. Kind of like this.
The Idea was that when I moved the tree would move too.
It filled the barrel with roots, the barrel decomposed, allowing for the roots to take hold as it was not on pavers.
30 years later the barrel disintegrated exposing the roots and had to be covered with dirt leaving the tree sticking out of a cone "ant hill".
Similar to this mound.
The whole tree looked much like this.
I was sad that it had to stay behind.

I thought about Bobby when he was preparing them... and you when we were eating them.
