Fall Colors in Northern Michigan – Deb and I rode to Traverse City on Sunday and to Petosky on Sat. and in that whole area we saw the fall colors of the trees was done . Very few bright colors were left. But it felt like summer so we didn’t really mind.
Austin Western – Todays picture is another one Deb took of me at a nearby gravel pit in Northern Michigan . I like all types of old machinery and always consider building a model of these old machines.
Detroit Lions Win – Were excited for the Lions and still in shock too , ha,ha. These are just not the Lions we have come to know and depend on playing good but always losing the last few minutes of every game. The Lions broke several records for being the worst team so we do have reason to doubt what is happening. I am very happy for them but still not convinced this is the real deal, ha,ha.
To-Do list is shrinking as i got the oil changed in the Fusion and the Cadillac yesterday, got the welding repairs done on the snowblower, got it greased and worked on the pto shaft. Also got the big door sealed in the shop and welded the cracked fender bracket.
Today I will work more on the list because it sounds like the cold air is coming tomorrow along with rain.
Have a great Tues.
