  1. Hot peppers 🌶 anyone? Red cayennes are coming in strong, at least 6 per day. Green ones are siricha (sp?), similar to jalapeños. This batch I'm slicing up, vacuum sealed and into the freezer. I pickled a couple of jars of them too. Plants are still producing like mad.
  2. This was daylight and I have no cats around outside. Owls, I have yet to see one. Since the feathers had a 80' spread I'm saying hawk.
  3. Just a few shots of my columbines in full bloom. The bees are all over them.
  4. 72 F and off the chart humidity. The pool was 82 yesterday. I can't even consider doing any paint work right now. It looks like it might rain later on.
  5. I do have hawks around, the bluejays usually make quite the racket when they appear. If so, it likely took off with the bird after a brief battle. This may explain the trail of feathers across my yard and pool. Nothing showed up on my Bird Buddy which was about 8 feet away.
  6. And to think that ships have used massive chains for at least 100 years. I'd like to see how they were done back then.
  7. I was out on my deck in the late afternoon and came across a huge amount of bird feathers. I don't see any hurt bird or blood. I tried to ID the feathers online with no luck. I think this may be molting. I'll see who shows up at the Bird Buddy with a bad haircut.
  8. He was also a master-shredder for his time. Listen to some of his recordings with Mary Ford. He was in a bad car accident at some point and shattered his right arm. He had the surgeons set it in a way that he could play guitar.
  9. That takes up some serious electric power 🔌. Looks like all was done by induction welding.
  10. Ivan from last night. The first 2, he is nesting in a box that Chinese food came in. Right on top of the bag of noodles and fortune cookies. The last, he is under the ottoman. A thunder storm rolled through and he went to his safe space.
  11. It rained last evening from 7 to at least 9. Probably after that too since my deck and patio were still wet this morning. 71 right now with 97% humidity. A little cloudy.
  12. I may have that exact kit around. They always built up nicely.
  13. I got 2 new 26" bike tires and tubes for my garbage picked Schwinn. I installed them yesterday... rides like a new bike.
  14. 74 at 6 this morning, 93% humidity. Inside i already have sweat running down my back. It may rain later on. If anyone wants me, I'll be in the pool.
  15. I did have a dead cicada yesterday in my pool. Took it out, put it on my deck table. Went inside to get my phone... came out and it was GONE... some bird had a nice breakfast....
  16. Brie was curled up with me yesterday. She's a very sweet little cat.
  17. I had some of those issues. NL got into trouble a couple of times. One was a spoof VW bug ad that said if Ted Kennedy had one, he'd be president today, since they float.
  18. A few more shots. Got it painted and most of the assembly is done. Paint is Extreme Lacquer, I will be using their clear.
  19. It was pretty funny. I'm not sure if it is still in print.
  20. Ivan from last night, he showed up early for a change.
  21. 65 F and cloudy. It did rain after 8 pm, although the weather app on my phone said 0% of rain. I drove both old cars around. Glad I put them away to beat the rain.
  22. When I was flush, car magazines were the ticket. Hot Rod, Car Craft, Popular Hot Rodding were my favorites. Of course MAD magazine and National Lampoon as well.
  23. I had the '59 out yesterday. It started right up after sitting for a while. Still too hot for longer rides.
  24. 68 and 88% humidity. Overcast with possible rain later on.
  25. I always save up unused ones or find them at model shows. They come in handy.
