Watched them from a friends sailboat in the marina
 
Let’s hope so. I’m doing the best I can with what I got.

Our sons are 24 and 22 now and we're happy with the paths they have taken. As little ones, we taught them to work with their hands and their backs and we took them out into the wilderness so they could see how natural processes work.

That said, I feel like I don't belong in this world anymore, if I ever did. That's probably just the old man in me talking while seeing so much lowest common denominator behavior in today's society. But this is the world we have and we've got to make the best of what we have to work with. It's great to see others here like you and Gino that are giving your kids a chance to develop spiritually and philosophically while learning how to get physical work and play done right. That stuff is the love that makes a difference.
 
Burn on brother.

So hot in Texas I cant make sausages for the next 3 months, cant get the smoker cool enough to keep from ruining them.

Small government entities suck at reality and like big brother you can't do shit and they know it, liberals in action.

Put a fan by the smoker and turn it on. It helps a little.
 
The Human Honey Badger is at it again !!!! Let's wish him well today as he tackles another monumental task, single handedly this time. (y)

Careful man, don't let that humidity smack ya down.

Since IMGUR has been screwing up I'm posting up the URL 'and' the direct pic to see what happens.

Whats rainbow I see behind the wood pile?.....

thats a sunoco gas station, but i do have a story about a rainbow behind the woodpile...

a steamy hot day last summer, rain showers in and out.

i look up and i see a rainbow behind my woodpile, real live, i look around the woodpile from where i was sitting and i could see cars being painted w the rainbow, like looking at them through stained glass...the north bound traffic

when south bound passed, no rainbow...the colors came vertical to ground...

i saw the end of a rainbow, when i first visibly seen it it was directly behind my woodpile, when i looked around the pile, i suggest the center of the rainbow was 25 feet away....

no bullshit

Oneshot is a fricken stud processing wood in that jungle heat down there!
 
MY view for a few days was taking care of the neighbors' goats, chickens, cows, ducks, and cat while they ventured off to Ohio to make Riley's dream come true.
Riley is a massive fan of Youtube stars Doug & Stacy, and he expressed a desire to meet them one day.
Catching up some of you newer members, Riley and his twin sister Caroline have cerebral palsy. Riley is less affected than Caroline and can do things for himself to a degree.
He loves to watch Youtube videos of people doing things, especially if they are operating any kind of machinery.

So my neighbors packed up the whole gang and took off on the adventure.
They seem to always pick extreme weather periods to do these things and to recruit me to help out with the animals. Glad to do it, but a nice Spring or Fall trip would be OK too. Heat indices around 107, but I didn't mind.

Here's their spotlight moment with Dough and Stacy. It looks like they had a great time!

Your Hooterville corn report. As a kid, “Knee high by the 4th of July” was the goal. That has changed. This field is just across the fence from our little slice of Hell. Planted the last week of April and has had ideal conditions (ample moisture, heat units, etc...). For reference, I’m 6’1” and much uglier in person.

Every year for the fourth, my wife and I along with some good friends get together watch the Rumble Ponies, a class A farm club for the Mets and catch a good fireworks show after the game. This year, Tim Tebow plays for the Rumble Ponies. The game started a few minutes late because he made sure he signed autographs and took photos with all the kids. He seems like a solid and genuine person. And we always get foot long hot dogs, didn't get any photos of the dogs, had more mustard on me than the dogs! :)

He always has been. He just got fucked over by the media because, dare I say it, he took a knee after each touchdown.
