Carpenters Without Borders helping to build the Blacksmith shop at the Mortise and Tenon Magazine head quarters.

"have traveled around the world to build, using the old ways. With axe, saw, plumb bob, and chisel, this diverse group of skilled craftspeople restored a medieval bridge at a castle in France, built a new hewn-truss roof system on a blacksmith shop in Romania, and even ventured as far afield as China – but they had never before done a project in the United States."

We took advantage of the nice weather and went for a ride in the car, yesterday. Found an isolated picnic table and sat out for a while. Nice to be away from the house for a little bit.

The weather is really nice, so it's mostly yard work for me...unless my wife wants to go fro a drive later.

Got drowned yesterday by an all day thunderstorm.  I think it circled the house all day.

 

Cut grass? Yeah when the floodwaters subside.

I know that feeling all too well!

Yesterday, we rearranged our sock drawers, deleted all the old messages on both our phones, inventoried our canned goods and, cereal boxes. Felt good to be productive.

Had a Interactive Remote Demo for Magnolia Woodturners Saturday. We went almost 4 hours and had 30 in online attendance. Been talking about this for a while and now realized with some bumps but still everyone happy. Gonna do a shorter version in two weeks.

 

Today working on getting some small projects done in the shop . Hey I may get those cleared by the endo of the week but what the heck gonna be here anyway.

Had an argument with the wife, went outside and glued up my first cross ornament (go down to see the one with the cross), worked on a cedar box for a neighbor before the rain and storms moved in.  We had possible hail and tornadoes, but thankfully, they didn't materialize.
