Stop a tree ultility company from the power company, gave them some beer money to come by with the bucket truck and string my flag pole.

I installed the hooks and hung up my Army flag, gonna order a 'don't tread on me', POW•MIA, and 'come and take it' flag

Not much sun left, got some rain in the area, stop the tree guys again today and asked for the grind up trees (8yds), gonna put this stuff out around some of the big oaks that are far from the house for moisture control.

Great to see some good flags flying.

Received the last big stainless order today. This is just a mock up. Hopefully I will have some time this weekend to put it all together.

Nice score on the bark mulch. Just check it for termites. Those fuckers live through everything...

Hell of a deal on the box!
I got a lot of yard work done today. Sprayed some weed killer on a very large bed of ivy in the front yard to prepare for sod in a few weeks. Planted some pepper plants, and cleaned out a narrow flower bed next to the fence and planted some black berry vines. Really hoping those do well since I love black berries.

Hung upper cabinets in a really old house that Christa and I are redoing. It's so old that the interior has dimensional lumber behind the plaster. It made cabinet hanging stupid easy since we didn't have to find studs.

Also hung a new front door and discovered what looks like black loose fill fiberglass insulation in the walls. Y'all ever seen that stuff before? Was concerned about asbestos, but I don't think it is that.

Initially 10 gallon batches; but I will be able to do double batch brew days real easy thanks to the tankless water heater.
