Hot hot hot. Drink lots of cold water while working on your swap piece. Funny I would remind you of all people. That curtain holds in the dust and to swamp cooler cold air. Smart. Looking forward to seeing your piece. |

Todays golf ball finds (I think I’m up to about 1000 now) lol Went to a couple of of estate sales, Found a couple of cool vintage white leather round chairs for the tiki bar that can swivel in a 360 circle Went to a local watering hole, where a friend built a giant tree table Had a bourbon and a rye Then my brother sent me a photo of an old snapshot of us in Hawaii, climbing on a Chinese lantern, I was on top, not sure what the hell I’m doing, maybe trying to pull the top off 🤷🏼♂️ [ Edited by hang10tiki on 2024-07-29 10:36:56 ] |

Oh my I was so far behind. Just caught up. What a lot of fun days. I love the golf ball collection, funny saying on that one ball. Beautiful area you live in. The walking stick will be another fun project. That's a cool skull wall with a beautiful woman hanging out. Nice chairs and that table is really cool. PS Are the spine bones human or animal? I better go to home tiki bars and see if I've missed anything there. [ Edited by danlovestikis on 2024-07-27 11:53:24 ] |

OK, the swamp cooler was nice but didn’t cool off the carving area very much and made it pretty darn humid. Broke down and picked up a portable air conditioner. Attached it to one of the vents in the garage.
Wow Works great Ahhhhhhhhhhh [ Edited by hang10tiki on 2024-07-29 10:50:37 ] [ Edited by hang10tiki on 2024-08-12 08:34:36 ] |

lol Started a quick project for my Blanton’s cork collection The horse and jockey on the bottle stoppers are now a recognized trademark of Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon. The rich heritage and tradition of horses in Kentucky parallel that of bourbon. Beginning in 1999 a collector's edition set of eight different stoppers was produced. The set features a horse and jockey in different strides and poses resembling the stages of a horse race. Each stopper is marked with a single letter that spells Blanton's when the set has been completed.
Everything fits OK, just need to clean it up, get it sanded, figure out the finish, and of course, find the rest of the missing letter corks |

You need a finish line at the end. It's fun to see something I would never know existed. The hunt is the best part of the fun in collecting. Good luck. |

Hi Wendy I hear ya I told a friend my plan, he gave me a few I was missing. Now I just need the “T” I like the distressed look of the wood, had a few splits so I filled the cracks with superglue. Sanded it and put a few coats of Howard’s on it! Made a second one for my sister-in-law |

Wow, so many fun photos. You are an all-time champ at finding golf balls. I LOVE the ears on the walking stick. This is going to be darling. Talking about darling how fun to have a gorgeous wife who does fun poses for you. I have a fun husband who does the same. Good food and drink to top off all the fun. The skull collection is very interesting. I hope you keep that going for years, the golf balls too. Love the photos, Wendy |

Thanks, Wendy. I think I’ll keep her. Not sure what I’ll end up doing with the skulls, kind of interesting, they might look neat in epoxy. Found 48 more today after work. |

This morning‘s finds, I did get surprised by a couple of giant coyotes on my hunt Lil coffee in the backyard after hunting, looks like they’re getting a little backed up, keep hitting balls in the bushes guys Funny photo, didn’t notice until later that it now looks like we have one 4 foot long dog Here’s the stash! And I have given away about 500 so far |

Love the Simon and Garfunkel song, the sign looks great so far. 4-foot-long dog photo is priceless. I love that you find so many balls. You've gotten so many it must be that no one was looking before you started. What a treasure trove. Today we looked at coyote skulls in a Natural History Museum. I love your skull collection. I'm looking forward to seeing more on your walking stick. Those ears are in my mind, they are darling. |

That's a MadDogMike mosaic table, isn't it? Beautiful. Cute tiny moai. Skulls are looking so good. Another golf balls high score day!!! I hope you walk every day. |
