ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOES

Oh yeah that was a Movie that S1 loved as a youngin.

It's hitting home this year.

The Mrs is overwhelmed with everything coming out of the Gardens this year!




We netted the grapes as last year the birds got every concord the minute it started to change colors.
They never touched the green grapes, Birds must not see the color Green as being food.

Anyway the first batch of juice came out so SWEET and without adding any sugar, WE're not sharing with anyone !

BULLWINKLE

This week while doing some work on a cabin for a client Bullwinkle came by for a visit.

The radio was blareing a station of Pop music and he didn't seem to be bothered by the noise I was making, he probably couldn't even hear me because of it.





He sat down just a few feet away under a tree and chewed his cud all morning.

After lunch I was tired of the station and tuned in a Country one for the afternoon.
This didn't set well with Bullwinkle as he got up and left, but before he did, he gave this face to show me what he thinks of Country Music.

MITT do you really need My help?

So last evening I got a call, it was from a Republican Party fund raiser.  He said that Mit needed My Money to help in 3 Swing States, all they wanted from me was $3 a day for the 90 days till the election.  That would guarantee his success in these Swing States, What the What!  They ought to do their homework first; We’re the 99%ers just barely keeping things together since Wall Street stole all our money and mortgages.  Why don’t they just hit up the 1%ers, they’ve most of the money anyway.  Just think how much time they would save making calls!

"SOILED DOVES"

So the Mrs went to Idaho to visit her sister this weekend.
They get along pretty well, can really tear up the garage sale and thrift store scene !
The SIL did "Rendezvous" for many years and has carried it to the point of yard decor.

There is an Outside bedroom and bath.

The Pioneers would be Proud !

GOOD SAINTS THEY AINT !

SCREAMING LIKE A LITTLE GIRL

Well the other evening I was layin on the bed watching Leno while the Mrs was getting ready for bed, AND out of nowhere there is a BAT circling the room, COOL.

Only it didn't  fly back out, it just kept going in a circle and after a few minutes it must have been getting tired as the circles started spiraling lower.  Well it was  diving low enough that I had to roll out of bed to get out of it's way. About then I was screaming like a little girl. There are 3 things I don't like closeup Bats, Rats, and Snakes.

Anyways it finally went back out into the kitchen so we closed all the doors and propped open the front and back doors. It finally landed on top of a bookcase in the living room to take a nap, so we just went to bed and haven't seen it since. It was a lot like this clip I found on U-tube, cept with more screaming !

Our house is over a century old so it does have a few holes, strange it doesn't happen more often. We have been here for almost 40 years and I can only remember it happening one other time long ago.

Bambi's Dad

We've had to chase this guy out of our garden the last two days, peas seem to be his favorite.

We may need to borrow a dog to keep him away, or does anyone like venison, I don't.

BONDED BY GREASE

Well Fathers Day came and went.

S3 and I bonded over repairing the Mrs' car.  Her throw out bearing was bad and she wouldn't drive it till it was fixed. Pulled the engine on Sunday and put it all back together on Monday.  He called in with car problems to get the day off, didn't tell them it was his Mom's car.
Anyway it's an OLD car but gets 40MPG, would have cost more to hire it done than car is worth.
Was only a 100 deadpres to do it ourselves and put in a new clutch and rear main while we had it apart. 

Like this but with more clothes !

Any way the Mrs is back in business, watch out DI she's on her way.


Oh yeah Fathers Day, S1/DIL stopped by with some special cupcakes.
S2 took us to the White Owl for lunch on the rooftop patio.
And we checked out the booths at SummerFest.
