Default Three Days in a Row at the Hammond Barn!

Wow! I owe my dear wife a debt of gratitude for letting me escape the drugery of domestic chores over the long weekend. Although today was a short day, any time at the barn is golden in my books.

Most of the time was spent in cleaning up and in organizing parts for the next phase of the "never-ending HUP adventure". Once I offloaded the back of the HUP, I went through a dozen coffee cans of miscellaneous parts - some of which had been hiding from me for a few months. Next was a good spring cleaning consisting of a brooming followed by a blast of the air hose. It is amazing how much crap gets tracked into the vehicle over a winter.

After a quick lunch in situ, I joined Bob and Joyce for their trek to the turkey nest to view the progress the Hen was making in the egg count. Not much to report on, but we did find a freshly killed skunk - actually, we smelled it before we saw it.

Back at the barn Bob and I discussed our upcoming adventure on Saturday - the Hammond Trio will be heading west to seek for that which was lost - elusive CMP parts. After a quick clean up, we parted company to prepare for the upcoming work week.
