Work Done 2025

Is that a Chinese Honda or are you restoring something?!

Chinese Honda Clone. When I bought it new in 2012 I bought an affordable generator on Amazon. I had no understanding then of what I was buying, except of the concept of power generation. In 13 years I've put in about $90 in parts, battery and oil changes. Not too shabby. Runs like it did when it was brand new. One pull it starts. I use the battery starter and it cranks right up.

Between Friday and today I split and stacked this pile of white pine. Cleaned the log landing and put the splitter behind the small wood shed.
I also chipped a bunch of brush on the woods road I have been working on.
I wanted to top cover the pile. Had some scraps of metal roofing. Bent it to form an over hang. See how it works. Only will work on a single row.

Pics?

I've gotten to aggravated, to many times, trying to link up my phone.
I use my laptop for online.

Still need to put away the lawnmower.

Ahhh yes... mower battery... Thanks for the reminder... And kids dirtbike battery, and UTV battery...

Played with the new UTV to push some snow off the pole shed slab today in case the crew shows up unannounced tomorrow morning. It was interesting, poor traction on non-textured sealed concrete. With deer season the last 9 days I couldn't get a schedule update last week. I'll do a full snow cleanup tomorrow and was promised a schedule update tomorrow. I got a nice big doe Wednesday afternoon. Quite pleased as we're out of venison fresh cuts after last seasons failure.

Been busy the past few days…

Finished winterizing my travel trailer

Reloaded the porch rack

Replaced a flooded expansion tank (surprise!) on the boiler. Test fired it today for first time since last February and was greeted very high boiler pressure. Tank was full of water. Not surprised, would have been 20 years old in 2026. About that time where it’s more efficient to heat with the boiler than the heat pump when I’m not home with temps getting as low as they are…

Bagged another 20 bags of leaves just in time for final pickup tomorrow.

I reloaded my rack next to the stove today. My '06 Tacoma decided to puke yesterday. Out of the clear blue, check engine and limp mode. Turns out that the Throttle Body went belly up. I pick it back up tomorrow. A month or so ago I installed de-icing cables in my most rear gutters. They don't get much sun in the winter. I use a remote control to turn them off and on. Pretty cool. They worked well. I will leave them on till the temps drop as at that point there won't be any water running to get clogged up in the gutters.
If this works out I will do the other two gutters and roof next summer.

I don't have any more leaves... That meager 1/2 inch of snow and ice is covering them. Problem solved. 😂

I didn't do much more today was more a keep the fire going and drink coffee kind of day!

My style when applicable.

I love dropping big stuff when it's safe to do so. Get out of the tree quicker.....then there's the rush. LOL

Split some small diameter white cedar and cherry rounds. Cherry went into a stack with some apple I just split, the cedar seems dry enough to burn now. Got to get my meter to confirm.

Split and stacked around 35 rounds of red and white oak today. Some of them were heffers

What in the world is a heffers in the way of wood. I cleaned out my gutters and racked the front yard and got my front tree trimmed. I need to clean my garage but its been too cold. You all need to sit by your stoves and drink a cup of coffee or hot choc and enjoy the season for winter has arrived. I is 20 degrees this morning and tonight will be cold again...I am sitting here with you all drinking some hot choc and marshmellows and thinking about Christmas and all the pretty lights going up..Have a nice Christmas Season and and eat good and rest especially that w person and a lot of you so relax and enjoy this cold cold weather--coming your way...clancey

Jealous!

 

[all night moe]

See post in "What's in your stove right now," and gathered a face cord in the truck and parked it at the entrance of the dragon's lair.

I also read through my summons again. I organized a written defense on legal paper, for my pitbull ....I mean lawyer to review. Answers to all the false claims. I'm looking forwards to charging ahead in the offense.

It'll be in the teens tomorrow. No work scheduled for those temps. I'll be in my woodyard, after morning's sun ''warmup,'' swinging the Fiskaris with vengeance.
