I like more lumens pics of the treasure he found ...imagine finding a perfectly good garret metal detector . that's a good find .
Nothing new, the same old thing sort of day. 
I love walking the woods later in the day like this when it is overcast and there are no harsh shadows. Earlier there was some rain. Now it is quiet, just a hint of a breeze that comes and goes. Peaceful. Unlike what amounts to the so-called civilized sections of our world.
I dug out an old game camera today. Hopefully, I’ll have some elk images to share in a day or three.
Sometimes I do have to work at various things up here. A little manual labour on a fire access road
piece of road…
I completed a small wooden box, approx 5.25 x 3.125 x 2 inches (135mm x 80mm x 50mm). Five types of wood with purpleheart being the main wood. Not too fancy, not perfect but it was fun to make and will be a surprise gift.
Kewl, looks nice!
Whaddya do wittit?
“do” ??
Put stuff in it. 
Well, a shoebox could fill that function.
Medal? Diorama? Bronzed baby-shoes? Shrunken-head?
For me, it was an exercise in edge gluing up some 3/4” stock and then ripping it down the center to make 2 slabs about 1/4” thick. Each slab was cut it an end and a side. After a bit more work I had a box. Sorta pretty, but without any distinct purpose.
It did help me hit on an idea for a future project; something similar that would incorporate some low power LED’s…
I cut and hauled a pick-up load of firewood. Seems to be something instinctual about getting firewood in the fall—kinda like a squirrel gathering nuts or cones I guess. I have at least enough for the next 3 years piled up now but for a firewooder, there is no such thing as “enough”. Gotta keep hauling until the snow gets too deep. Just can’t help myself. 
Wellp, it shore is purty!
Thank you.
Shopping for a new sewing box (mine`s all in large tin cans at the moment) and finaly settled on a nice wooden cantilever case that`s just perfect! also spent some time getting a few new colors of embroidery thread
I have only done the following not very fun non-flashlight activities today:
1. drove into city to routine dentist appointment (first in a long time)
2. called Internal Revenue Service several times to try to find out why I have not received my tax refund (much time pressing numbers on phone and waiting for agent)
That’s a great looking box ! :+1:
A nice, happy puppy returned narrative:
Half an hour ago, I was on my first leg of my daily six mile walk, a nice elderly gentleman at 223 Chestnut approached me to ask me if I had seen his lost tan short hair puppy; he told me he is asking me because he knows I frequent this area daily. I said no, but I asked him for his phone number, because I walk this route frequently. I wrote his number on my hand, and I proceeded half a mile, and a group of people at Marios' house on Cederwood approached me from the other side of the street, with a small dog cradled in arm, and ask me if I know whose dog this is; they are asking me, because they know I frquent the area daily. I gave them the address and phone number, they get in their car to return the dog to its owners house.
Nice, happy feeling. :)
Went up mountain, spent a couple hours snowboarding, until my toes froze and my legs wore out… Note to self, use the toe warmer packs I have in the car, next time… no point saving them… LOL
its a beautiful sunny day

Me, I got sprung from the hospital after two days of infusions. Good for another 4 weeks.
A LOT depends on which nurse comes in to set the line. Last two days had the one who always has to fish for a vein.
And I have really easy to find and stick bigg’ens close to the surface. Can’t imaging what some of the little old ladies or gravitational(y) challenged people have to go through sometimes.
All the Best,
Jeff
I have a really nice Shrunken head.
Thanks for reminding me , I think it’s time to order another
