Friday.....

The snow scene from the village shows a girl at the top of the hill yelling down to others.  I had never notice that before until I took a photo of it. It is an interesting kind of piece to put with the village.

Signs that I am at work on something. I like having a portable, battery powered circle saw but I don’t get very good straight cuts with it.  I need to clamp a piece of wood or metal to help keep it guided as I cut.  I make do with it but sometimes have to cut a third piece when I am trying to get two identical lengths of something.

The beginnings of a made-from-scrap bird feeder is shown here. I am not completely done with it or I would show it.  I did get it done and placed it out in the yard but decided I wanted a roof over the tray.  When we get four or more inches of snow tonight ,  the feeder will be buried. I had a two tired feeder at the old place and I decided to let it go to the landfill. I am going to make a top piece that will set on top of the tray and will decide if I need to attach it or let it just be held by gravity.

My challenge for this is  "the nails that I don’t have."  The old place has every size of nail available but none are at the new place.  I have been digging through different jars and tool trays to pick up used ones and now I am down to using screws.

Another view of the collection of four. I should have shared it when I shared the two smaller ones but pictures get buried in the file.

As we wait for the storm to hit we seem to be comfortably stocked with food. I finally succeeded in getting my new, used snowblower started.  My son had picked it up from a neighboring curb where he lives. It was among lots of stuff headed for the landfill.  I didn’t know much about the machine, and probably flooded it.  I went to my Ace Hardware and bought a new spark plug. I replaced the old one and it started off right away. I thank you all for stopping by today.
