Yesterday I made the trip<\/strong> to get my hearing aids cleaned and a new test to update the programs\u2026yep, new hearing aids have programs.  On the way out, the office<\/strong> is near Baptist Medical Center in OKC I saw these two looking for the Doctors office? <\/p>\n

\"1-SAM_0759\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I think they were at the wrong address?<\/p>\n

On my way home I took a little detour to check<\/strong> out some antennas\u2026you know being a Ham you have to check<\/strong> out all those antennas but near the antenna farm\u2026which I didn\u2019t get pictures of today but will go back for that\u2026 I did get this neat old homestead.<\/p>\n

\"1-IMG_8057\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The fence could use<\/strong> some fixing but the old rock well house or ? was interesting\u2026<\/p>\n

\"1-IMG_8059\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Later in the day<\/strong> I spotted this really mixed up family car?  now who do they root for?<\/p>\n

\"1-SAM_0751\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I would say it is OSU as they have double for that but ?  one<\/strong> never knows.<\/p>\n

Today I had to get out early and give blood\u2026 another Dr visit next week\u2026 got some breakfast and then hooked up the trailer<\/strong> to the jeep (first time) and made a trip<\/strong> to Lowes\u2026<\/p>\n

I had to get some DIRT for the moved raised bed I put together the other day\u2026 since I am retired I figured I should start getting on all those jobs I have put off , but I can say one<\/strong> thing.  I need<\/strong> to pace myself.  I got plumb wore out today.  I hefted 40 some bags into the trailer<\/strong> and out of the trailer<\/strong> and into that box..<\/p>\n

\"1-IMG_8062\"<\/a><\/p>\n

and still it wasn\u2019t enough so will have to make another trip<\/strong> but that will be later because when I ready to put the trailer<\/strong> up I spotted the driftwood on the damn.  I have the damn end of a pond and of course the end is the downwind damn end. (I know I am spelling it wrong\u2026 so says you\u2026 correct according to how I feel tonight).  Anyway I proceeded to back out on the dam, and then go up and down and up and down and up and down for several hours loading all that DRIFTWOOD!\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"1-IMG_8065\"<\/a><\/p>\n

All that and I only have a little over half the dam but of course the prevailing SW wind points it all to my end\u2026 I still have a few that wont be moved for a while..<\/p>\n

\"1-IMG_8067\"<\/a><\/p>\n

They are too big and I wasn\u2019t going<\/strong> to get the chain saw out to cut them up\u2026 would have meant I had to service the saw first??? and that would be another hour to 2 hours before I could get started sawing so\u2026 just push them up out of the way and maybe use<\/strong> them for setting on? anyway it now is pretty cleaned up\u2026and waiting for the next flood to fill the pond.<\/p>\n

\"1-IMG_8066\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Maybe I should do some grass and brush trimming near the blackberry bushes?  well maybe if it doesn\u2019t fill up first. ha!<\/p>\n

So I got clean ears, clean hearing aids, re-programmed , moved dirt and had a DamnSite cleaning afternoon\u2026 and I am wasted\u2026 I am sure going<\/strong> to need<\/strong> to taper my retirement activities or I will be looking for another job soon to rest.<\/p>\n
