Wishing I was a black bear and asleep in my den, waiting for the warmth of spring to wake me up, getting tougher each winter to get through this. Football is about all I can say I have to look forward to this weekend, might be busting out an IPA early.

it's the heart of the ice fishing season, been at it for a little over a month, finally ice on the bigger lakes safe enough for vehicle travel..
heading North for the weekend..

A good run is better than a bad stand!

Horrible this year. I worked outside all day Saturday. Just brutal.

I have really had it with this winter and will not be here next year. Jeanne wouldn't travel due to Covid but come hell or high water I will be South starting December 1, 2022.

No boat, back in the suds.

No one is handy enough to convince me that a dip strip service isn't money well spent....

Watch football, golf and tennis and read more history books. Bourbon and Scotch. Clean basement, never ends. Avoid frustration with current state of being a human.

I have to strip a door that was probably built in the 1830’s and it’s loaded with lead paint. you think I should get that dipped? Or for just a door, should I just throw on a respirator and heat gun it?

How old a table
The old ones were shellacked, steel wool and denatured alcohol will strip that way better than paint remover

Been a while since I actually did it myself
Maybe my own stench covered it up😊
