What did you do today....other than work on your car!?

Using a rainy gusty day to clean up the shop. Got my 45 grand wall hanger up!

The wife is about to subject me to working in the yard! I cut back a lot of brush and small trees coming up behind the garage,and along the fenceline! Also worked with the Mrs. in her garden.
 
Went to a parking lot get together yesterday evening and again, didn't take any pics.
Don't feel bad about that...I have been to car gatherings, and as soon as you start yapping with someone, the notion of taking pictures eludes the brain until it's usually too late.
 
My Dewalt pressure washer was a victim of ethanol fuel and sitting for too long last summer. I went to Amazon and for $20.97 I got a new carb, coil, spark plug, air filter, fuel filter and fuel line. Back in business for twenty bucks!
I bought a petrol water blaster about 12 years ago now, and probably only use it once a year at the most now. That thing starts first pull every time, even with gas that's old and probably stale. I just top it up, check the oil and away it goes.
 
Finished up my gutters.

I bought mine lightly used at least 15 years ago and it was the same. One start pull after sitting all winter. Until it didn't. It might have sat closer to two years than one. I was just glad to get it going for cheap.
 
After work yesterday came home to see my youngest bought $3,000 worth of new tires and wheels for his truck so I helped him put them on last evening. Not my style but it’s his truck and what he wanted. Nice and ride nice..

Picked blueberries for the wife's birthday yesterday.
It's what she wanted.
Had the boy, his wife and the grandboys along for the hunt.
Everyone had a great time.
I got several as big around as quarters.
 
Got back last night from spending the day at the cabin. Started construction on a storage/shower house building (12' by 8'). Cut some grass. Did some target shooting.

Cut the grass and then sat in the garage. After 3 Corona's, I may have solved some of the worlds problems.:drinks::lol:

I'll have to see if she used all the big-uns.
