Tuesday, Sept. 13, 2022 – Busy Day of Post Installing

Hey Babe,
Another good night sleep and another productive day. Was out on the tractor by 9:30, worked on the Teal and the Red trails today, got a lot of the arrow posts and plain trail posts out. Moved some of the existing posts from the left side to the right side so that it will be correct with the new system. Made a lot of notes about what other spots need a post, and it seems there are still a lot that need to be created and placed! Every time it seems like I’m turning a corner on completion, I find another bunch of places that need posts. Oh, well, what else have I got to do? I’m going to try to put out as many of the posts that I’ve already made, keep making a comprehensive list of where else I need posts, and hopefully, I’ll just have one more batch to paint and install and I’ll finally be done, maybe! The mornings have been slightly cooler, so it starts out pretty pleasant, and by the time the heat really builds up, it starts to get cloudy, so it’s really not too bad out there. After I got back, I did some online ordering. I needed a bunch of little stuff and a couple of big items, including a big tire for the back of the tractor. It’s starting to crack in places, and I certainly don’t want to be out in the middle of nowhere when it finally goes. It actually looks like the original tire from when it was built back in the 70’s, or maybe they put new tires on when they imported it from Japan, but even that means it’s over 20 years old. I replaced the other one about five years ago, so I’m perfectly okay with replacing the other one now. I also ordered an air compressor, my last one pretty much died, even though I didn’t use it very much. They’re so sensitive, they heat up so easily, then crap out. I ordered a heavy duty one, since the tires on the trailer require a psi of 123, but I’m not holding my breath that it will work much better. Just have to be careful about letting it cool down, even though I was sure I did that with my last one. Finally settled down for the evening, watched a good movie that Karl had recommended, The Gray Man, action-packed to say the least. Ready for shower and bed now! Good night, my darlin’! Love you!
