Put up a horizontal End-Fed-Half-Wave (EFHW) HAM radio antenna up about 70 feet running between two large red oaks in my yard. Good for working 10-80m HF without the need of a tuner.

Surprisingly, all of the bands had an SWR between 1.3 and 2.1. - damn good for an antenna without a tuner.

I'm in the middle of a refresh of my library, music, front room.  The wallpaper under the chair rail moulding has been removed, the walls holes filled and sanded and all cleaned with the ammonia/vinegar/baking soda solution by my wife.

We have generally used the local Sherwin-Williams store near my house for most paint and have an "account" with them.  When my wife purchased the near-best wall paint it was $70/gal   And that was after our discount.

Although I'm sure there are less expensive paints available we have always been satisfied with the SW product.

Like many things these days that you don't purchase regularly, prices have increased substantially.

Went to the Dixie oil and gas sign show and came home with a couple of old therms.

Big day today! 

Neat prop photo, liked the idea of repairs to aircraft done right before it leaves the hanger, on a car, the foreman says ya got 15 minutes, do it right, I dont care if it is muddy now get going.
