Tweet

Well, it's already getting chilly here, and quite windy for today and tomorrow.... Must be gettin' old, probably just sit home and watch the tube tonight....... Is Gunsmoke still on at 8:00 and Carol Burnett at 9:00???? I haven't watched a lot of TV lately.....

They say we could get a little of the white stuff by Sunday night. Cold front headed this way.

We had some of that crap on Wednesday, gone now but it sure was ugly....

We get Gunsmoke thru Retro Television network.. not sure when it is on now, havn't seen it in a while, but when it was on and I knew it was, Marshal dillion and Gunsmoke were played back to back..

it's windy here too, didn't get much done ither

Retro TV???? You mean they don't have new shows for the new fall season this year????? Geez, what's Chester gonna do??? Tough for a guy like that to find work!!!!!

PS--Kitty is HOT!!!!!

Retro TV runs programs for a certin time on weekdays, then they get kicked to weekends for a time longer, and then there replaced with diffrent shows.. gunsmoke is on weekends now I think.... as Far as Chester, guess he couldn't do anything, being he got replaced by Festus.

I know what you mean Dave, when I was back in Illinois last week about Wed the weather cooled off and got chilly (even saw frost on the windshield last Sat when I was in Des Moines). Since then the arthritis in my knees has been killing me even back here in AZ.

I guess I haven't helped it much the last couple of days, I've been up and down on the shop roof clearing overhanging branches and installing 4 sky lights (should really help the next time I paint something in there).

God have we really turned into the old guys compailing about aches and pains??????

By the way Andy Griffith on at 7, Gunsmoke's on at 5 and Bonanza at 6

Do the skylights help a lot Mike???

It's brighter in there now with the lights off than it was with them on before. I should have done it 15 years ago when we re-roofed the place.

I've also got some hi intensity lighting I'm going to get mounted one of these days along with a pretty good size exhaust fan and louver set up I've had laying around.

Basically the old shop will be getting turned into the paint booth when the new shop is up.

Oh yeah, it IS almost NOVEMBER, isn't it???? Down here we tend to forget what time of year it is. Our seasons are:

Nice (November to March)

Nicer (April and May)

Too hot to move (June through October)

So we should be getting into the months where we can actually get out and do things in a week or so.

Good plan Mike... My little garage is almost beyond hope... But when I get to Texas and build my new one, I was wondering how much a couple skylights would help...... Real light seems to be so much less directional dependant then artificial lights....

Oh yeah, that's right.... forgot about the new guy Festus on the show....

7:30 pm and it's 79 degrees.................just thought you should know.

Just had to hear that Uncle Bob.........

It's shaping into a nice Autumn here. Still warm days, which makes it nice to work outside and cool nights in the high 30's and low 40's.
Snow is fun to visit, but hard to live through for a whole winter. Sun is nice too, but hard to work in when really hot!
Dave we put skylights in the garage when we rebuilt it, and insulated it as well. It keeps it cool and bright in the summer, and somewhat warm and bright in the winter. They are the opening variety of skylight, but to be honest I've never felt the need to open them! Like you I wish I had more space to move around in, but am just happy to have a place that is dry and out of the elements!
