Ate a bag of caramel creames while I was at the ER.

Actually, there's more to it. lol. I had to call the wambuhlance early this morning while I was posting in the do you know what I'm in the mood for thread. My heart rate started skyrocketing and I didn't feel like driving, didn't feel like waking the boy up, so just called the wambuhlance. Er is just around the corner anyway. So I was in there for like six hours. If I didn't have the two heart attacks late last fall I wouldn't have been so worried about it.

I didn't even miss a beat, was posting six hours later and nobody even knew. Ha. Well, except for buttercup.

I'm kinda wired. lol.
 
I rode an electric bicycle down to the Seahawks Training Center today and i took this picture. I just got home from that ride.

Its that time of year isn't it... My driveway was always layered with Black Walnut's to de-hull... We had two healthy patches of Walnut trees that produced really well... I can't say I did this as much as my parents, but every year they gave shelled bags of walnuts as Christmas Presents... We had a 20 by 20 room in the metal barn and every year we would spread out 15 to 20 bushel of nuts to dry out over the winter and crack and pick the nuts that were on top of the room... My hands have been blacker that coaly's ass after picking up the nuts that have been driven over on the limestone driveway... I have sold a couple of Black Walnut Saw logs... Easier then pickin ginseng... :coffee:

Damn. Wish I room for that many. Hulls came off easy this year...maybe have 5 pounds of nut meat after drying.

Chicken coop...two days so far.

Built the base out of odds and ends I had left over from other projects... some 4x4s and well build pallets.
