Now you know what we go through! And why we sometimes wonder if it was worth it to make our legs smooth.

Worth it to whom? Lol because ......

Just beautiful weather here today and for the week. Mother nature is trying to lull us into a false sense of security before hurricane season. I got a new battery for the generator and took out the gas from last year. Getting ready. Today I will check the boards for the garage door reinforcement and put new SS anchors in the floor.

Are you familiar with EMD 2-Stroke 645 series engines... these are 16 cylinder versions.
We blew a head/liner kit (not an uncommon thing).

 

[Boat1]

P.S. the "645" designation is the C.I. of each cylinder...

Good morning all. I’ll be up early for the next two months, I have to be in the office by 6:00 AM so while nobody else is here I figure that gives me about 30 minutes to pop in and say hello. Hope you all have a good day and may your ️ be strong.

The power pack is no biggie... where the morning REALLY gets good, is the 10 man crew that we were supposed to haul to the platform arrived. Turns out, they're supposed to stay on the boat for the duration of the job (estimated 2 weeks)... no groceries were ordered, no cook was contracted...
Max capacity of my vessel is 16 people, it's maxed. Thus far, my Monday has been a full blown shitshow before the sun even came up....
But at least I didn't get struck by lightning!

Has anyone here been to Berlin? Heading over soon; been all over Western Germany, not the East. I am sure there is lots to see and do. I think also Magdeburg, very historical.

Same here! When I went to the beach regularly, my feet were so smooth!

Whe you get out of the ocean the dead skin peels of knees and elbows too

Poor, cold babies!

Been snowing since the picture was taken. Had to clean 9" of the crap out of the driveway this morning.

It's still snowing, btw...

One main on a 240 ft supply boat... note the 16 Oz coffee tumbler at the bottom of the wheel.

 

[Missk_2022]

Not the look you were going for?

Not quite... but in 3 weeks it will change

Thinking this but in shades of grey

 

[Missk_2022]

Oh, dear! Did she damage your cuticle area? If that was her, don't go back to her.

No that was me picking at a hang nail

 

[Boat1]

Any of you gearheads like Roots blowers?
1 of 2 on each engine...

Your pictures are waaaaay better than mine!

 

[Missk_2022]

Oh, girl! I'll be taking you to the nail store! They're amazing!

Nail.store ??!!!!

 

[Missk_2022]

That's got a pair of steerable pods. That thing must be pretty maneuverable, despite the size. What's the rated HP?

 

[Missk_2022]

Me, too! I might be on grands minding duty tomorrow. I said I would take them for ice cream!

Fill em with sugar and send em home...grandma pay back

If you have a Costco membership, look there for adjustable beds. I got mine from there. It's very comfy!

Good idea and cash back!!
