    How was your son and future daughter-in-law? Did you get them all set up in their new place?

    Not too manly ... work on formulating and perfecting my Florida Frost AS. Five parts Florida Water and three parts Osage Rub ... has a great scent and feel.

    A little more manly ... restoring and antique mill with stain and teak oil.

    Today I did my 200th ride (39 mi in just under 3 hours) since getting back on the bike. I have since pedaled 2523 miles (4036 km) in 221 hours. Feeling pretty good considering I thought my chest was going to explode in under 2 miles on my first ride.

    RyX DoH!

    Can't answer that. He is my fathers cat, and dad got him slightly used. He was full grown when the Craig's List ad brought him to our attention.

    I've splashed on Osage, then FL Water but haven't tried blending. Thanks for the recipe! Got a small bottle to put it in right here.

    I was guessing Andy's age by his copious freckles on his nose and mouth. Think of them as we get age spots. My unscientific guess would put him at 15 to 18 years. He looks very happy. :D

    It's been about a month since I've polished my work boots, so....

    Nice and shiny, but you need a pair of Danners.

    I like my Bates. I've owned Rocky's mostly. Pretty much all I wore during my career.

    I owned a pair of Danners work boots and loved them. You can get them resoled, and they are Gore-Tex lined. The issue is they don't manufacture the boots I really want in my size. The Super Rainforest. 200 Grams Thinsulate, Gore-Tex liner, Double leather toebox. I'm not trying force you though. You gotta buy what you like.

    I looked at Danner way back when, before I bought my Eliminators. They looked like a good boot too.

    I've enjoyed Rockys in the past, but currently have Carolinas; my favorites are Chippewas. I aways buy loggers.

    My neighbor and I cut down a tree, with his chainsaw, loaded up the logs in his cummins diesel powered Dodge Ram, and hauled it off to the dump. One of the few manly things I do these days, and it was all with his toys.:(

    Not sure how manly it was but I did this today. Cleaned, sanded and polished an Ever Ready 100T to I can prep it for a knot and get it ready for a new home!
