The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

Honestly, if I go out without a hat, my head suffers. I wear a boonie hat to cut the grass, and I think it helps a lot, too.


In other news, I finally got the clip release latch pin out of that damned rifle. The area inside the latch was full of oily/greasy funky crap. Toothbrush and Hoppe #9 to clear that, and bit of carb cleaner on the pin holes. Had my glasses on and still managed to get a bit in my eye. I also got the gas system off of the front end of the barrel. It's cleaner now, too. I may have to make a wee trough just longer than the length of a barrelled action to put these things in (I guess I'll buy another one of these cheapies and rebuild it) and let it soak. I probably should soak this in EvapoRust, too. I don't know - we'll see. Anyway, I put another coat on the front handguard because it just doesn't have the lustre of the other two pieces, so a touch more finish might do the trick. All the wee pieces are in the bowl with more Hoppe's to keep soaking - along with the bolt. I was toying with not disassembling that, but as bad as those other places were and as much shit as was in them, and with the empty bit in the bolt and the fact that Important Stuff lives there. Like the firing pin. Yeah, clear-n-clean.


I am learning a lot.
 
How's everyone's <insert day part here> going?
Loving the cool weather today myself, but know a heat wave is just around the corner. Whoo, boy!
Let me know if you don’t find it, I printed and laminated it.
FOUND IT!!! Took some digging, but I did find it.
For anyone else who still needs it: @Lilianna23 Bread Recipe post
Training the dogs last night.
:love: Love the pic - such good puppers!!!
The landlady would screw that all up for you by bending and putting her hands on her knees and yelling, "PUPPIES!!!!!"


They are very handsome critters.


A black cat just raced through here too fast not to bounce into things, but he didn't. I could hear his claws scritching for traction. The best part? It was my black cat. At least strange cats aren't racing around my house.


Kitten finished killing her bug. I know where Kitten is. I don't know where the bug is . . . .
Puppies and Kitties! Puppies and Kitties! Puppies and Kitties! (because incantations must be uttered thrice)

Really, Wat? I think we all know where that bug is now. 😏
Get. the. camera. OUT. of. my. bedroom. Please!
;)
There’s a lot to tackle this weekend, but I think I’m gonna take it easy too. Feel really burned out.
Be good to yourself! Burnout is no joke and no fun!

Mid 90s this week... lotion everything...😳😲
Sunscreen is a must for me. I do hate feeling like I've been slimed though!
Thank God my GF understands.
🤗 Hope the visit went well!
It is yummy in a tummy......
:ROFLMAO: MissK knows where to find the bug!!
I'll make some special pumpkin muffins for the next time you're in the diner.
Better get a large pumpkin - sounds like these will be popular!

No chicken...what about ...drink squirrel
I love English comedy.....Mrs bucket and the 9ne that was set in a dept store.
I was raised on them, too. So much fun!
And that concludes the infomercial portion of our program.
Goodness - it was a bit infomercial, wasn't it? :LOL:
Grey I should have known...it's always the posh dude in polished shoes and a BOWLER HAT that's hiding the kinkiest secrets under the what ..news paper...
The quiet ones and the overly polite. ✔️
Totally a white girl problem... a dumb white girl how sat talking with her legs in the sun with no SPF 10000.... I am a burner
Hoping that won't be me next month. I'm buying new sunscreen now and digging out all my sun hats. Southwest US in mid-July. With my glow-in-the-dark skin. :ROFLMAO: ♨️
 
As am I, Dear. I thought I was gonna cook the day we worked on the fence last week, and I'm damned glad I didn't. It's like dodging a bullet.
I used to wonder when 8 would see people working in fields, doing roadwork or landscaping why every body surface was covered..... I know why and it is funny how a long sleeve shirt or a towel that blocks the sun cools you off

Hello, @Missk_2022
Keep cool in the coming days. I think a lot about my Ohio sisters & brothers. Be safe! 🥰 🥰🥰:rose:
 
Thanks goes to @Lilianna23 for sharing!!
I was happy to find it, too!
A fool-proof bread recipe? 🥇


I know!!! I'm good at following recipes, so I'll be kind of anal with it the first time or three, until I get the hang of it.


I was looking online (Google is my BFF) to see about Parkerizing, a metal finish that the military used on these-here 80 year old rifles. It seems that I have everything I need to do this process at home. That's pretty cool.

A long-sleeve cotton shirt and a large brim hat work wonders. I used to work in the sun as close to nekkid as was legal and my feet got wet with perspiration, which was pretty disgusting. (I'm eating a late supper as I type this.) Over the years, I added back more clothes to the mixture and realized that I burnt less flesh and that my skin was better off inside the damp fabric.
