@TnRiver46 & @T-Billy What the heck is a paw paw?

I wouldn’t have known what they were if it weren’t for the TV show Moonshiners. 😂

I knew what it was right off the bat - my grand-uncle lived in SC and my cousin lives in NC...both areas where Paw Paws are abundant.

 

They can't ship them though...they're only good for 2-3 days after picking unlike things like apples that are good for a week or two.

One of these days I'll get back to catching the other kind of bass

Hope you're  not towing anything with that

No way, It can't go even 100 miles, Plus the hitch is not still and not strong, Ill stick to my 3500 diesel for towing, This one is free charging for life and we are using it for around the town and use it as "church Truck".

Hitch is part of the frame and a weak spot in the design.

This is a thunderstorm approaching this afternoon looking west down my street. Within minutes it was pouring rain.

We got that too - and a short power outage...just long enough to reboot my desktop.

We had winds up to 70mph tuesday, lost power for 19 hours. Cool lightning though...lots of rain.

Boys and girls be sure to eat your carrots, they’re good for your eyes.

Pets never cease to amaze me. I have a cat that begs for meat cooked on the pellet grill. Won't touch meat cooked any other way. The smokey/woody smell gets him all riled up.

Hank would be a garbage gut if we gave him the opportunity! If we did he’d turn into a reverse garbage disposal in no time! Trust me we know from experience! Carrots are the extent of food besides the one dog food he can have….otherwise it’s a giant mess in our house! We can’t even give him pills to help his stiff hips.

One of Sara's nicknames was 'Garbage Hound' for a reason.

Our little home in the woods will be mostly white soon,

but I like this look much better.

@A-Jay this cold front was very nice and very welcomed! The next week albeit temporary not so much.

Gotta love a restaurant with this view

Fall will be here soon enough. Leaves are changing and salmon are entering the harbors, and bow season is 2-1/2 short weeks away

Since it is fire 40miles away and we cover in ashes, I just got to work and made one grade space to fishing section. Still need work, But you get the idea. I also like what I did for rods.

Looks great @ATA! Hope the fires get under control ASAP, there is no loss of life and property loss is minimal.

DIY Connection knot assist, Look pretty cool with some wood and shrink tube and end caps.

I've never seen maples turning this early before, but we are in the midst of a drought with much of the state ranked in severe to exceptional drought status. Many of our farmers are having a rough time of it this year, particularly in the SE part of the state.
