What did you accomplish today?

One more step I haven't seen mentioned (and I learned it the hard way).
Once the old filter is down, make positively sure that the rubber seal is still with the filter.

I changed the oil on a freshly rebuilt H/P 351 with out performing that step & within a few days that motor was gushing Texas Tea.
Fortunately Momma (being suitably mechanically inclined) shut it down & saved lots of my hard work.
Closer inspection showed the previous seal stuck solidly to the (freshly painted) block.
I had a IHC Scout way back when that had a cartridge type insert that the seal ring was always a bitch to get on right.

The problem with most of the ones in the store is they pick them green so they don't get damaged in shipment, but it is what it is.
We have a shifted meal schedule all the time. Brunch, then linner (that should be a word if brunch is, or lupper depending on your location.) Then night meal. I usually only eat twice with a snack in the afternoon.
We're getting them and nectarines from CA now I think, earlier from GA. They've been ripening pretty good for me in a paper bag so far. and only $.77 lb! About to the end of getting 'em cheap.

I like the fresh red plums and ranier cherries , those are out now

Rolled a bunch of joints for sitting out the second covid wave, 130, plus 5 more smoked.
A few in every container are cut with kief, so that has been fun playing roulette

tacos are serious business, I don't share. :D
I had that nightmare this year after the food truck closed for the season.
Woke up because I couldn't taste my taco in the dream and panicked....what hell was this, I wondered?
It's pitch black, cold and my taco was missing, really thought I was dead for about 2 seconds.

I had 2 International Scouts back in the day...must have been about early 80's and of course they weren't new...Probably early 70's, late 60's models. Man they were workhorses. I got one stuck in the woods on an old logging trail, and blew out reverse trying to rock it out. Left it a month til I could "borrow" a tractor. It's interesting driving a car with no reverse.... Takes a bit of thinking/planning ahead!

Maybe one was a '67

I had one - 1980 Scout with a 392. Primitive beast at best.
Blew out the rear driveline & came home on the front. What an idiot, but a Bad Ass Truck.

THE TIME RIGHT NOW IS GET STONED O'CLOCK!
Too Late. :grin:

I Didn't Die !!

Taking down the old 10' tall Banya, she was too far gone to save.
Stripped interior & exterior & while prepping the far wall it started to creak.

FUCK !!!!!!!

Took off running for the big opening (while throwing sledge hammer) ~ the wall hit the heels of my boots as I dove out sicut Superman.

Double FUCK !!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW, this grass don't taste that good.

And is that dog shit over there?

Edit:
Roof is on the left - rafters visible - North wall laying flat (where I just was) on the floor.
Teeth marks may be visible in the grass depending on your Pixel count.
