Those are neat!

Anyone know Riley Rupp and Blake Bell? I got to meet them a few weekends ago at the Sedalia, MO show. Blake sold me some nice white Indian Runners. I brought Riley a pair of Pekins and one of Andalusian Chickens (I think that's what they, but I'm not a chicken person LOL) I picked them up when I went to the Lebanon, IN show the weekend before.

I picked up a pair of show Pekins and 2 pair of Cayugas, and a pair of White Indian Runners from Alexandra Wisniewski, in Lebanon, IN. Having a hard time finding any Pomeranian Geese, though

Been real busy keeping the industrial park manufacturers happy. This is part of an assembly machine to put the hinge on the air cleaner cover on a Kawasaki 726cc engine. The Delrin (white) part made the inside of my Vertical Machining Center look like it snowed lol.

Machining the aluminum part on that angle took a bit of thought. I had to make some plates for the end to position the part just right in the VMC.

The ones on top could be young puffballs. Maybe?

The bottom one looks like young Jack O Lantern or Ompalotus ilundens which are not good eats at all. I have a spot that usually grows a huge Jack O Lantern each year.

The top on could be a puffball if it's perfectly white on the inside. But I'm no mushroom expert, I would take a photo and send it to my business partner who was a mushroom nut and he would either tell me don't touch it or where is it.

my sister also thought Jack O Lanterns. These are in the park, so I can’t look at them today. The puffball looking ones are here on the farm.

30°F here as well this morning!

Made me reconsider yesterdays plan to wash out the coolant tank on the VMC.

Looks like @karenerwin finally found someone in Poplar Bluff that could install vinyl siding. I passed by on the way to UPS and the outside of the house looks real good now.

Now if I could get caught up with work and drag Ricky and the Kubota over there I'd move some more of that tree out.

I’m relaxing in Jamaica. I have the same guy who fixed the siding, soffit and facia, hanging the rest of the drywall and doing the taping and mudding. Hopefully the house will be ready to put on the market ( or at least close to it) by the end of the year!
