Finally tackled the bugs on the front of the truck yesterday. Goof off is the magic spray let sit half hour and pressure wash off. Nothing better in my opinion 
Had clot cut some limbs from a pine to install the steps at the day care. Got to add to the free firewood pile again 
Now that you ask I assumed I was going Tim go key turn but I can see the benefit of always on as well
Got a good start on the new back steps at the daycare today 
First ever prime rib cooked at home. Butter salt and Pepper. Cook 5 min per pound at 500° then turn off heat let sit undisturbed 2 hrs. It was delicious. I think I’ll cut the sitting time by 15 mins or so next go round. Would like it a bit more rare 
Spent yesterday putting together a bunch of upcoming reviews. This one is another #harborfreight goodie. A foldable 15 watt solar panel. I was rather surprised 
Last evening we came together as The Workshop Community for our monthly Post-Apoc Book Club. We had a great time chatting about The Final Year, history, encryption and a ton of other incredible topics. Check it out in your feed today.

Recently had the pleasure of being a guest on the Tell Us How To Make It Better Podcast with Documentary Film Maker George Siegal. We chatted about what it means to be prepared especially how important planning and preparation are to disaster response.
Picked this kit up off amazon. Going to add some more ISB and 12 volt outlets to the RAM. 
Really enjoying Silo so far only two episodes in though Mrs Toolman and myself will have something to say about on Friday nights stream. 
It is strange to see them it gets incrdibly cold in this entire province but the southern section of Alberta is still very desert like
The largest Albertan cactus I have seen before Hard to believe they grow up here 
Had a rental without hot water turned out it was just a pilot light out. 
Not a perfect repair by any means but it will extend the life of the stairs by a few years so that’s a win in my book 
Thank you Keith Welcome to the Workshop Brother
Had a great conversation with Lettie Loo of Backwoods consulting on the very tough subject of death and preparing for dying last night. Like always I learned a bunch
