I have quite the feeling of accomplishment. Years ago I bought a quilting frame & machine from an elderly friend who was downsizing. It's been laying disassembled all around my house, garage, and barn ever since.
I FINALLY cleared out some space and set the thing up. The friend whom I bought...
Nothing like putting stuff off until the last minute: I finally cleared the leaves off the driveway. Also edged, which was the hard part. Darn creeping charlie & virginia creeper trying to take over my driveway like a jungle engulfing an ancient temple.

More fun today. House guest and I went out for breakfast buffet, then a bit of hiking at Devil's Lake, then pottered up past the hells I mean Dells to do some hiking around the river.

This morning gotta drop off the car to...
Long day yesterday taking in the Rock River Thresheree. A long drive but I'm addicted to old machinery.
If I'd known there was a calliope I'd have skipped it. I'd rather hear a steam engine than a calliope any day.
Oh for crying out loud . . . this is the THIRD time this month that a possum has wandered into an unbaited live trap. I mean, I KNOW that possums are stoooopid, but is there no limit?!
