What did you do today?

While building the model landrover I decided I needed an air brush stand as I keep putting the thing down on the bench and spilling the paint.

 

So I had a pop, using the brass base of an old lab instrument and some scraps of alloy and wood.

One side holds the gun i use with a small colour cup, has to be stored like that as the cup juts out of the left side.

The other side holds my gun with the standard paint jar on it.

@oliver2-44 Thanks, Yes, exactly 😁. Now that you pointed it out it seems rather appropriate.

I wanted a calorie burn and figured starting to move the rock pile was a great way. 

Took 3 cart loads from the front yard to the path here. This is a bridge that we'll be rebuilding soon.  

Stone on both sides. PT span.

Fried up some taters, onions,  deer scrapple, and eggs for breakfast.

Then  checked on the Kids Fishing Derby.   We stocked 1500 trout last evening.     It was 39 degrees and drizzling  rain this morning.  The trout bite was slow, but a few were caught.

I put a cart load of stone in front of the new workshop space to make a small ramp.

Betsy and I took advantage of a (rare) nice day and drove out to the Plumb Island reservation in Newbury, Ma. 7 miles of shoreline and salt marsh @ 25mph. Beautiful area.

She is an amateur photographer and scored some great pics. She does a calendar every year, so has to stock up on subjects.

Plumb island is a fantastic bird watching place!

 

You may know Trina's been compiling the annual Redsquare Calendar for a couple year. 

She also does a complete calendar for our friends and family every year. 

All her own pics. 

All her own seasons done per month to month display.

And when I was a kid you could catch some big a$$ strippers off the beach there!

I wish it was today - whopper of a toothache since Thursday, but antibiotics have to do their work first.

Going out to the shop tomorrow to forget about it!

I've had five teeth pulled.

All four wisdom teeth plus one of the molars beside them.

I can't chew very much on my right hand side anyway so if I had a rotted or bad tooth on that side I probably would just have it removed. Not repaired.

No root canals.... yet.

I have a mouth full of metal.  Implants, crowns, & bridges.

My dad was a dentist.  I'll bet he's rolling in his grave. 😥

I mowed today.

 

I did the first 3/4 of a lap with the 855, then the cotter pin for the PTO spring broke, so I had to finish with the push mower, since the tractor seems to be in cahoots with my cotter pin assortment, as it has chosen today to hide.
