Jr at work. Kid is making $15 per hour and gaining experience all at the same time. I have him creating equipment manuals for a project I just completed. He's doing a fine job so far.
Proud dad moment today. Lil Jr wants to become an engineer after high school (He will be a Jr in the fall). So, we hired him on as a summer intern to learn the ropes and today is his first day of a real job. He works under me learning the ropes.
I worked for the same company for 18 years even relocated twice. I loved my job except the drive. Then I found a job by accident close to home and making $20k per year more. The insurance sucked though and only 2 weeks vacation. I worked there a year and my previous boss called one day and...
My 2 hives now have condominiums. I took everyone's advice and went ahead and added the 2nd 10 frame brood box this afternoon. They weren't too pissy today, but I smoked the heck out of them. Brood frames are looking good filled solid and capped for most of them with capped honey on some in...
As most of you know, my 7 year old daughter wanted to start shooting archery a few months ago. She's been doing very well finishing in the top 3 at every tournament she has been to against girls 1 ft taller and 1 year older than her. She's at the top of the list for KY Jr Eagle Shooter of the...
My new bees could knock out Rocky Balboa. I opened the top and almost instantly about 50 bees hit me in the face net. My Weiner dog was 20 ft away and he took off yelping getting multiple stings. Few days later I pulled the SxS up about 15-20 ft away to observe them and they started instantly...
JD commercial Z960M here. 31 hp Kawasaki engine, 60" cut. I mow our 5 acre yard with it and around the pond. Takes me about 3 hours and 5 gallons of gas. I've never had a single issue with it. It has just over 200 hours on it now.
Last time we were through Richmond, my son and I stopped and bought some ghost pepper jerky. I think we drank 5-6 waters between us on the way home just over eating 3-4 pieces each.
Thanks for compliments. He is a pretty good kid for the most part. Straight A's in school, stays away from the drug crowd, and loves the outdoors. He actually bought the truck. He works at our wedding venue prepping for weddings and mowing. He also picked up a few yards to mow and will work...
Drove all the way to Jackson TN on Sunday to look at a truck for Jr. Then went back again yesterday to pick it up. He just turned 16 a few months ago. 12 hours total drive time and I am now ready to sit home for a while. This is the first time I have missed going the last weekend of turkey...
Short stack knocked it out of the park at Anderson County for the first 15 targets (started on #5). Then she started wearing down. She was 4 up going into her last 5 targets and they were in the hard wind except #4. She still managed to finish in 2nd place. I can't wait to see how good 1st...
We didn't get to go to London for the ASA qualifier. However, we made our way to Ft. Benning Alabama for the Black Eagle/Darton Pro-Am. I think short stack was nervous in the beginning not shooting like she normally does and it was kinda dark still, but about 4 targets in she settled in and...
