Stuff and July 8th

This Stuff is from today. Driving home from lunch I got this truck. It isn't a very good shot but I like the truck. The body wasn't on the chassis last week.


My load of scrap metal. I forgot to take pictures of the scrap yard, but they got a big claw on a trackhoe and picked it up. They didn't get all of it and they tried to get the rest but they couldn't. Yesterday I was talking to Richard, who used to work with us, and he knew a guy at a scrap metal yard who was so good at those that he could pick up a penny on a bed of a truck with those things. Course, the guy here sprayed hydraulic oil all over my truck. Then he picked up an older cadillac and through it in the pile then ripped off the trunk hood. There was an old van that I used as target practice for the left over metal pipes. Mostly the front windshield which was already cracked and anything that hit it just made it crack more. Then I tried aiming for the back windows and just missed them. But when I left I found a big motor that fit in my hand and tossed it at the back windows and it contacted and the glass shattered and all of the glass fell inside the van (btw the van was laying on its side).

Oh I forgot to tell you where this metal came from. We have a large green house which we call the Gutter Connect (because it is several houses all connected into one with gutters in between all of them). It is old and was falling apart. Last wind storm we had really tore down one side so we contracted somebody from Alabama I think to fix it. They did but they left all the old metal behind so we had to find way to get rid of it.
I drove by this house. I love the blue door and the blue shutters, that's about it.


The Memorial Park by Dignity on Memorial and Kelley. A lot of the Memorial Parks here in Oklahoma are really fancy.






Yesterday, July 8th.
I liked this little patio.



This side isn't as cool.


I liked the grand entry way with the covered "hall" to the front door with a similar idea on top.



St Elijah church.

Nice houses! I liked the patio from both angles. So that's what you do all day at work, bust out windows! A little tension relief?

I wish that's what I did all day. and it wasn't as swell as it sounded. I got dehydrated got back to work and drank way too much water, and felt crappy for a long time.
