Turkey day went along smoothly this year with the early start by Mrs T and the kids getting involved in pre-making the pies, horsdoerves, and prepping the taters and stuffing the day before. All Mrs T had was the prep of her famous roast turkey. Dinner as usual took place around 630 with all 3 kids and the cats/dog and birds hungrily feasting. Mrs T and headed off to tryptophan slumber while the 2 younger kids played monopoly til they tired and went off to bed.
Got up about 8 this morning for coffee and toast before retiring again til almost noon. And a day after brunch of turkey and dressing and coffee. Then out here to the studio. Almost 50 degrees this afternoon and sunny. A beautiful day indeed.
Hope yours went as well also.
update (afternoon walk find of 2 topsy turvy tomato planters for next spring with what appears to be good compost soil.) Will walk again later to the rest of the neighborhood for more "finds"

Tuesday morning on the way to Babylon

And i thoroughly enjoy the urban art we see on the way. The orange cap was found at a bus stop a few years ago and got pulled out this morning for the wind on my ears

Back to Bablyon

It was a very busy weekend around the stead preppin for the holiday season. I also had several outside projects for clieints that needed finishing. Mrs T had me running all kind of chores and stuff. Must have put about 15 miles or so on the bike this weekend. Anyhow I didnt get to do a video as I had planned. But alas we have a long weekend coming up so I will prob get around to doing at least one or 2.
THe turkey and all the trimmings are ready to go and Mrs T and the juniors arew gettin antsy for the bird.. As are the cats and parrots.

Saturday morning

Slept a tad better last night. Not as warm. Came out early this morning and upgraded the Netbook with some junk parts I scavenged. The RAM is now doubled and I have an extra hard drive for adding more junque (ie stuff). I also came across some carcasses and parts to build a Frankenlaptop for the wife. Wont she be surprised when its done.
ROFL. It will be better than the one she had before it bit the dust. Alas.
