I made a new bird feeder stand today and started working on my new water feature. Once again you will see that I have incorporated another tiller wheel into the design. More to come with tiller wheels. I have about 30 of them of all different types. I spent most of the morning working on the bird feeder stand. It was pretty quick to knock out. It was just a matter of screwing all the pipe together. I took another tiller wheel and cleaned it up and painted it copper.
I am pretty excited about my pump project. I picked it up in KS at the scrap yard. It's broke in a couple of places, but as a yard art piece I don't think anyone will notice as they drive by. This morning I picked up a whiskey barrel, pump and hose. I cleaned up the pump today, took the faucet off and ran the pump hose through to see that it would work. I might get the base tomorrow and then it should go pretty quick. I have a place for it all ready in the front garden. It will replace an old ice cream bucket water feature that I had made.
I also watered the yard and cut down some starter trees. I still need to weed eat and mow in front of the shop doors. I might get to that tomorrow.
I cleaned out the smoker this evening. Emptied the ash from last time and cleaned the grates. We have a brisket marinating that I will be cooking up tomorrow. Candy is going to cook up a couple of side dishes. We will see who shows up.
