What Manly Things Did You Do Today?

And I thought the bathroom sink was messy after trimming my beard.

 

Every women should now how to properly use a firearm. Good on you.

 

Nice looking "Grill" shots gents


Lets see this weekend Sat and Sun were spent on the boat enjoying the sunshine

Me and Elmo doing the selfie thing



Today was spent watching the rain, watching American Sniper, and then finally getting enough clear skies to get the Plow on the tractor and break ground for the new section of garden..
Then hooking up the Choker chains and tearing out a few dead trees from the stand directly behind the house ..

Did you eat them Korean style with Kimchi, sliced raw garlic and gochujang? For the uninitiated gochujang is red pepper paste for dipping the raw garlic in.

Last night I ate samkyapsal and drank countless bottles of soju with my friends from my gym. Samkyapsal is thick sliced unsmoked bacon grilled on an open fire in the middle of the table. Yes that right bacon as a main course. I have no idea how to describe the mystery alcohol soju, it supposed to be distilled from rice like sake but I think it is really a petroleum byproduct.

 

bacon for dinner!

What little soju I've had, I think you're right. It's bascially Korean/Asian Cachaca (Brazilian Rum)... which is to say, gasoline which happens to be drinkable. But, they both mellow when mixed.

And I find with sake' (not sure if this applies to soju), but I don't feel the effects at all until I try to stand up.

 

I bought four bags of pine bark mini nuggets mulch for my wife today. She was very happy.

 

Second section of the Garden is going in as planned but a couple of days late, it rained for the last week or so

Ripped through the Sod last week with the Kubota and the plow just like last year, got the tiller in there today.. Unlike last year when I didn't have enough power to really rip through the ground, this year the Craftsman tore it all up, pretty happy with the results..

New posts for the extension will go up later today and hopefully I can get it all buttoned up by tomorrow..

Going to try an idea I read about in the FB Homesteading group I am in for the new section, putting down Cardboard, then a layer of Straw then putting in the raised beds and new Soil and Peat Moss.. This is supposed to near eliminate the weeds for the first year, then the cardboard basically disintegrates over the winter I hope







Even remembered the leather gloves so I didn't screw up my hands like last time hehehehe

 

Wrestled on the floor with my grandson. He'll be 5 tomorrow; only a year or two more that I can guarantee I can take 'im.

 

haha but sorry Steve I read that wrong. I thought you said in a year or two you would e able to take him. Oops

 

Only if penguins have discovered how to reverse the aging process!

 

All at the same time?

 

I fixed a loose shower curtain rod.

 

Shaved with my Muhle R41.

 

Oh my aching back

Finally after 13 years here we are tearing down the old Wellhouse and rebuilding the entire system and shed from the ground up













Yes the wasps and hornets were quite pissed off at me










Finished breaking it all down, and hauling it all to the dump today...

Now the fun starts,,, I want to take it all out to the bare dirt around the Well casing then build it all back up again, but I have until Oct 1st to have it all done the way I see it

 

Looks like a good day for working.

 

Hung a shower wall. Band practice with the guys. Took care of SWMBO

 

Made shaving brush/razor stand

 

Made dinner for wife and kids. Tilapia, roasted reds, canned corn and green beans. Pretty simple fare but we're grateful to have it.

 

Mow and weed eat the yard in 93 degree f. heat......
