Very nice pairing Harry. Now's your chance to show that you still have the Mojo ........ a little at a time though, cause that looks like a lot of concrete to clean.
Maybe you could put the pressure washer in the Gator and drive along and hang the wand over the side.

Oh I do not use a Wand !!!! I have a stainless steel circular housing that is on wheels and has rotating nozzles underneath it . Best thing since sliced bread . I could never hope to do it with just a nozzle anymore .

My usual summertime going-to-shoot pool Cadet. The Rally is usually along for the ride also, but doesn't always make the photo op
Nice morning. Got the windows off and the AC open...that's not right ...windows open and AC off
Everybody have a fun filled Friday

I have most of my garden areas fenced, including a lot of this type. I was recently dismayed to see a juvenile rabbit slip right through that without even slowing down.
So now I’m in the process of lining the bottom with chicken wire. It’s war.

Funny you mention A/C. Got the guys coming out today because ours is out. I have a bad feeling, because it’s got some years on it.

Locking Knife of the Week is a Victorinox folding paring knife with liner lock. One of my favorite knives: long, lean, light, stainless and easy to clean, cuts like the dickens. (Photos from postimage)



International Knife of the Week is a Pallares Solsona (thanks, Tom). (X-ray photo a BF attachment, just because I can do that again with the migration & software upgrades)

I found the same thing happening. That is just to keep the deer out of the garden area, I have chicken wire around my raised beds to keep the bunnies and my dog out of them. Now, if I could keep the horn worms away I'd be in business! Last year my little garden was decimated by them so bad I didn't even plant this year. Luckily, I had some tomatoes plants pop up next to my porch where my wife threw old tomatoes out last year.

Hadn't planned on it but gotta go to town to see the insurance man about the "California Fair Plan" fire insurance plan. We'll have breakfast at the Wagon Wheel Cafe. I'll be carrying this Lambfoot gifted to me by Dan sf fanatic .

Not a single horn worm this year
Beans are so far free of japanese beetles, even the cabbage moths are hardly a bother.
I have plants growing all over like that, too. From tossing scraps, to stuff getting overripe and falling in the mulch. They make good plants to save seeds from since they’re proven survivors.
Back to What Traditional Knife I’m Totin Today, this one’s hand sized ~ perfectly so for me ~ but slim, being only two layers.
And check this out

~ it used to bug me that the halfstop was off a bit. Then I figured out it’s because the liner lock is the opposite of my Schrades and TL-29s. You push from the pile side instead of the mark side. The half stop being more like a 45 degree stop keeps the blade from nicking your index finger that’s pushing the liner lock. Genius.
