I put the Halloween stuff away, the little that was out, and finished my cards for CCAYR, cleaned some, and started rounding up the snowmen that live at my house until about March!
I'm that ODD!
I change the coffee cups in the cupboard, the snowman glasses & plates come out, change the pictures on the walls, pillows, ....I know, it's sickening!
Oh well, gives people something to talk about!
And today.....I've done the laundry, burnt a bunch of dead brush from the north side of the house, cleaned the oven (ok, it cleaned itself, but I gotta scrub it out), made puffed wheat squares, and was gonna make muffins, until I had to clean the oven.
We also did this...........
See the yellow thing in the water ahead of the boat!?
That's the float to keep the water lines off the bottom of the dugout.
Can you say mud boys & girls!?
See the hoses up to the right of the boat?!
Water lines, shouldn't be there.
Will freeze asap!
Can you also see the ice Ray's had to chisel out of the way!?
This is an August job, not November!
I was the puller out of the boat!
Anyhoo, It's no wonder I'm the brains of the operation!
Ray was going to tie a rock to the hoses.
Why?! WTH!?
I have absolutely no idea!
I said; " We have a float to keep them off the bottom of the dugout, the problem must be somewhere else, cause tying a rock on the hoses, and having a float to keep them up just isn't working for me!"
The float is also tied to a stake on the north shore.
I went over there, and Ray chipped the ice away and I pulled on the rope.
Lo and Behold, it lowered the hoses!
So I tightened it up about 4 feet, and the hoses dropped.
Then Ray let the rope go on the float, and the hoses went to the bottom of the dugout!
Me; "You better go back out there and tie that rope up higher in the float! It's laying flat which means the hoses aren't being held up! I'm gonna get real cranky if I have muddy water tomorrow!"
Ray; "I'll be real cranky if the hoses plug up with mud a month from now!"
Hopefully we've taken care of that!
It also started snowing while we were out there...oh joy!
I'm now going to my room , got a few ideas for scrapbook pages, after I scrub the oven....still have muffins to make!
Did you remember to change your clocks back 1 hour?!
Ta ta for now!

Honestly I just love reading your posts, but you do really wear me out. I don't understand all the hose stuff, but it sounds like a pain. Can't believe you already have ice. It was 74 here today! Hope you rested some! Best, Curt
