Yeah = “MT” should be “my”.

Flag is out - first chore of the morning.

I am going to TRY to do a bike ride of 50 miles today (for the # of States). If I can, I’ll try to stretch it to 76 but that would be pushing it. I’m no where near, and never was, the Tour de France shape. They are doing Granville to Angiers (Stage 4), 138.4 miles and they have a brave soul, Frenchman Armindo Fonseca, making a solo ride at 23.8mph! WOW!

Just make sure to extend the headers if the door is wider....also side 2 bys......good to screw solidly into for deadbolts, door bars, etc.....

I always start on the jamb hinge side and level out from there.

Pre-hung going into an all electric mobile home framed in 2X6 ... will have to do a little re-engineering, but it's the stuff I love to do

It'll more than likely be an all day event whereas in my yute (sic), prolly could'a whipped it out in a couple of hours

Headers in a mobile then don’t make much sense unless it’s a two-story (haha)....

Appreciate the advice ....

it's how we communicate, "Hey, I know that stuff, too !"

Happy Independence Day, Gaff

I’d hang a flag but the only one I have is my father’s from his military funeral in the display case. Way to big to fly, but I think I’ll put it out on the front porch railing, though.

We are waiting for the rain/storms to stop so we can go to the outdoor range to go shooting. Thought that is a fitting way to celebrate Independence Day!

I agree. My BIL is going to bush hog some acreage now that his daughter and husband are in between chicken batches and I plan to let him fire my Garands, Carbines, 03’s and some other goodies.

Happy Independence Day to all my Stateside (and elsewhere) FReeper friends. I’ll go down to the river for some bottle rocket fights to add a little color to the night.
