When you’ve got ribeye but the Egg hasn’t been unpacked from the move, yet. 

A gift from SWMBO to keep sustain me until the patio pointing is done and ‘my girlfriend’ can emerge to her new home.

Learned this hack to improve water leak detector response time, two teaspoonful on the right, followed by one teaspoonful on the left:

The first batch is currently boiling. Might be that much again still in the garden.

Thanks @Ozzie_Isaac
@ColbyLang we’ve dove in rougher seas but this trip had a lot of green divers / first time - check out dives and rough seas with new divers not a good combination and admittedly my gimp ankle and bad seas would have been rough time getting on the boat.

so I’ve been taking it easy. Me and GF did Father’s Day stuff with my dad yesterday. Today her and Redheaded step child wanted to surprise me. 

So we played with DuckDog and DuckChessie. 

I’ve been yammering about the sheep hunt nonsense and planning a rifle build. She and my gunsmith buddy surprised me with 100 pieces of brass for the new build. He ordered the barrel Friday. 

Now enjoying the cauliflower pizza my gf cooked me.
Bad weather again and chihuahua and Duckcat snuggled up.

DuckChessie said he was helping pick the garden today

@DuckDogDr, what caliber boom stick?

fishlessman

slowest start to my raised beds ever. hard frost end of may, then a few days of sun, then rain, rain, rain. slugs eating the hot peppers, made some traps. right side of the first pic you can see the spring running from under the bed, not the best thing with all this rain

potatoes just starting, will add another tire next weekend when the rest break thru

strawberries been good for three weeks despite the rain

I’m recovering from ankle surgery that was done today. They fused the joint to fix the pain from the bone on bone contact.

I know you’ve heard it from many others on here. You and your wife and family are amazing people for doing what you do. Fostering. Adopting. All
of it. I can’t imagine the stories you could tell from the **** you’ve experienced and heard about what those kids have been through.

Sitting in the dark. A storm took down the power. The pup took advantage to try to rob the treat bag.

A quick learner right there.  Hope it's not protracted although the weather guessers love the high drama. 

Stay healthy and safe out there-

Sorry to hear you're having issues, probably with the state. Hopefully the kid is the focus sooner rather than later.
We're suffering the first round of blowback due to my daughter's short career of petty crime and drug abuse. Now that she is trying to turn her life around, my oh so xtian SIL is excluding her from an important family event. P*sses you off when the drawbridges go up just when you need in. Commencing tit for tat.

Best wish to your daughter with making positive changes in her life. I hope your SIL comes around to be more supportive. Good luck.

Don’t know if anyone has already broached the subject here, but the unfolding OceanGate story is looking grim. Hopeful for the safety of the crew, but it is sounding like rescue is improbable. Can’t imagine what their families are going through. 

Not to put @lousubcap on the spot, but I’d bet he has good perspective. 

lousubcap

As with every submarine lost event that plays out in real time, in the end game there are only two possibilities, on the surface or on the ocean floor.  With rare exceptions in history the ocean floor is the final destination, and if located the depth of water and strength of the hull will determine if a rescue is even possible. 

From what I have read, this is not the first time this submersible has made a trip to the Titanic.  Those on scene are using all available options in an attempt to locate the submersible.  The location seems to fairly well defined around the Titanic but nothing has been heard acoustically that I am aware of.

2.5 miles down in a tiny toy sub....what could go wrong.  do they not have backup toy subs to go look for them, calling for help should not be plan A

nealmgb

 The capsule is not technically a sub.  It has no self propulsion capabilities which separates it from a submarine.  It is a submersible capsule that relies on another vessel for propulsion.  Limited number of submarines capable of that depth.  The news yesterday was that the US has no subs capable of reaching that depth.

havent watched it much but it has 6 electric thrusters that moves it around on the ocean floor using a video game controller...

Never heard of that kind of tart before.

96 hrs of air.

2.5 miles down.

I suspect the AC isn't working either.  Not sure if that means they will be extremely hot or extremely cold.

This is a bad situation.

I don't think we can count on "Builders of Memory" to save this submersible. (James Cameron's name for the aliens in his 1989 seminal movie "The Abyss")
