Morning everyone! Hope everyone is having a great weekend. Worked long and hard. Was going to bed early but left the teevee on and magically found the Texas A&M v/s Auburn game. Well…got so wrapped up in that 4th overtime battle, got to bed a wee bit late. Then, realized that the Las Vegas Gran Prix was happn’n and further realized that I was on the right channel for that! It didn’t start till midnight!…bridge too far. Looked like a good race but I was riding with the sandman by then!

Everyone have a great Sunday. Get your rest in mind, body, and spirit. Your MZ:

Yesterday, I was splitting firewood. There’s something very relaxing about the productive nature work like this. I try to find beauty in everything around me, esp in nature. Sometimes I’m amazed at the wood grains I see. Here are a few examples.

This was from a maple tree we had taken down that was dying. I’ve never seen maple with so much beautiful wood grain. It looks more like black, walnut, but black walnut is usually much more solid brown color. Who knows??

That's why we eventually stopped doing grocery orders. The substitutions were ridiculous

My idea of a perfect date...

I love grapefruit and will eat..... but I needed the oranges and missing strawberries for a fruit tray. Me and my merry band of la sertomans (service organization) is feeding the teachers at the elementary school down the street Monday during parent teacher conferences.... so now I have to go to the grocery store anyway.... ugh

Sounds about right!

“Come here cat! Get in the carrier for visiting the vet. Jump up on my lap cuz I’ve had a bad day.”

It works all the time. Ya gotta train em.

Yeah, that was not a very thoughtful swap of 2 oranges for 737729366 grapefruit.

Here some more. Pretty sure it’s maple. The woodgrain ripples at the top and the bottom, give it away. But what kind of maple??

A friend of mine on the plants and gardening thread thought it was a diseased maple.

Anyway, thought I’d share some of nature’s beauty with you all.

It's Maple. I've seen older trees turn color like that. Sugar maple can have pretty thin layers of sap wood, you're looking at the colored heart wood. The yellow areas are probably pretty soft (rotting), the brown areas are probably still solid. Probably near it's end of life.

I like colored and highly figured wood. Better than boring straight grain.

And she charged me 12 dollars... I didn't ask for that.....

You can always take them to the local firing range and shoot them!

We just brought our first batch of pumpkins up to our range. May still be too dry to shoot tho….
