If I hadn't been a soldier I'd have been a tradesman

Good at making/fixing things

Taking up woodworking as a hobby

FYI Conrad, I have always idolized farmers and ranchers, good at everything!

I have a moose in my back yard that hasn't stomped me yet. All I could ask for...

Jim, we've not met and I'm an abrasive a$$hole, but if I can ever do anything to help you out, let me know and I'll make it happen.

probably kind of tough living where you do. i don't know the area at all but it sounds kind of rural. sometimes friends can be found through your kids friends. my kids inadvertently introduced me to several people who i would call friends. not close friends, but close enough for me. theres only one guy who i would call a close friend and we only see each other once a month or so.

Bingo!

Me and the China Doll are pretty tight. Together all day, every day, and it never gets old. We both have offspring, but mine are busy living, and hers is on the other side of the world. No matter. We are having a blast right here at home. Hunkered down is our natural state, not at all something we dread.

The difference in being a "machinist" and a "Tool maker" is like comparing Hillary to a woman !

Two posts from opposite prospectives proving the same point,

To have a true friend one must first be a true friend.

Yrs ago a great bud died.
Also got divorced.
Figured out I was going to be alone.
Have friends I guess, still work, have kids......but really am actually alone.

First week of covid quarantine was an adjustnent. 2nd was fine. Me and my orange cat just chilled.

Alone aint a problem. Not having stuff to do is.
Best have hobbies and or good weather.
