I made it through a bit more. Haven't finished yet. Got busy--but I will.

Saturday I bought around 150 pounds of English walnuts and Monday 11 plus pounds of hazelnuts to plant. I sold enough of the English walnuts at a flea market on Sunday to pay for them and the hazelnuts, about 50 pounds at $6.00 a pound.

I got some free Shagbark hickory nuts, at one of the two places I got the English walnuts, to plant too. Indeed to find some more.

I've picked up a little over 200 pounds of black walnuts to plant and eat. I have more to harvest still. One of my most productive trees still has most of the nuts hanging in it.

I would buy a 375 R.U.M. if I could find one. Have no use for one but don't own a big rifle. If the global warmers are right dinosaurs will come back. Could be handy.

Even if Harris wins, I'm not too worried about shotguns, bolt guns or revolvers--yet.


Yes, I am making certain that all vehicles are full of fuel, all extra tanks are full, all propane tanks are full, and plenty of extra fuel in case for all UTVs, vehicles, and tractors.
I'll probably buy several 100 more pounds of salt and sugar as well tomorrow and Friday. Also, probably gonna go buy alot of batteries and maybe an extra generator.

Powder is dry here, things are prepared.

I would wait remember the last Trump slump. Prices should come down and availability up.

Before the election, we revised our retirement investments to reflect the impending result. Then we bought a good bottle of champagne - it came in handy for the celebration.

The election has come and gone. No more need for anything on my wishlist. Deleted post.

I helped buy some advertising for the Donald campaign. Sent him a hundred $. I know can’t possibly offset the likes of DeNerro or Madona, with their hundreds of millions and the rest of the Hollywood wack-os. But it turns out there are enough (Me’s),
that believe that a modest contribution is better than not doing anything.If what I heard is true Trumps average donations was $61. Takes a lot of (Me’s) ha ha. I watched the whole darn thing until 12:51 when Fox projected he would win. Some of the best money I’ve ever spent.

I'd say anything one needs at Harbor Freight, and a zillion other places, one needs to buy it. Everything from China and maybe Mexico will have to go up. Or just wait until after the U.S. gets tooled up to make stuff with $30 an hour labor and then buy it. No doubt if that happens there will be hard times, how long it will last will be any ones guess.
