While cleaning out email, I find this from Foxhat in New Hampshire. Proud grandmother posts her grandson's shop project he built for her. A very special basket for her kitchen (wipes). My bet is that this basket has a special spot in her kitchen forever. She will also share this with friends who visit, boasting "look at what my grandson built me."
What I love about this project is the solid look and solid build. Simplicity in design and function.
I can see that proud smile on your face "K." Get some cookies on the bake for his next trip to the farm. Like I even had to suggest that?
My wife says this is "birth of a family heirloom." Agreed!!

MIDNIGHT SAIL (SV Airspeed) sailing the midnight watch and to myself I sing; "I realized why twice you ran away."
The mood bright enough to sail at night nearing Puerto Rico,

WARM WINDS blow in east Texas,
and chainsaws sing in the early mornings and after lunch and a nap. Large burn piles rise from the empty fields around us. When weather permits, these vestiges, once picturesque and long friends of the lands, will be burnt and returned. They will enrich the soil and a new circle of things growing will begin again. The recent "baby tornado" is still a ways from being cleaned up and other property damage repaired.
Our backyard and neighbor's back yard are very good examples, although small scale, of some of the tornado damage.
The wife and I picked up limbs and small debris yesterday afternoon. Lots of work for seemingly little visual improvement. Then we sat down to take a break and "who knew" how cleaning up a few small limbs and some debris contributes to to the big picture?

Officially Spring, frost chances are over I am told, daylight savings time and body time still at some odds. Baby flowers sprouting, onions growing and yard work progressing.
REACHER SEASON 3 movie night review.
I am not sure that sharing movie/TV series reviews requires anything more other than an opinion on what we like or what we do not like.
We are fans of the REACHER series. Action-filled, bad guys, good guys and so forth. But season 3 lacks on every scale of measurement and opinion. The actors do not fit, interact or reflect who they are trying to be. No chemistry and the kissing and brief sex encounter could not be more fabricated. Wet mops would have been more interesting.
The acting is force fed on all accounts. Simply said, nope, we do not like it "bigly." A gigantic let down over seasons one and two.
The final episode, and I concur with some of what others hint at, that this last episode needs a gigantic finish just to save the season. I have zero hopes.
Last night her and I opted to start season 1 over again and instantly fell back to enjoying REACHER. Alan Ritchson was more believable as an actor and kick ass character. All other actors in that season brought an "A" game to their characters. The only things saving Season 3 this year are Season one and Season two.
Appreciate the visit this week.
