One of my nephews had some trees removed from his yard Wednesday, so yesterday evening I picked up a few chunks of nice ash and choke cherry. Today I'll be getting those cut into turning blanks. This is the first green wood I've been able to get my hands on since I set up my shop here in ABQ. Looking forward to making some wet wood ribbons this weekend. But before I do that I want come up with a way to hang some shower curtains around my turning area to somewhat keep the curlies from going all over the shop.
I'd also like to at least get started on a utility table/storage cart to put on our back patio. I've had a Keeter folding workbench out there since we moved in that's being used for storing various yard tools and bird feeding stuff. I have an old enameled steel tabletop that was in my grandma's laundry room for years, and then stored outside for decades. The wooden apron and legs are pretty much rotten, but the top's still in good shape. Should be a pretty simple project, but I'm sure I can turn it into a long drawn-out affair, lol. Once it's done, I can re-claim my Keeter bench and use it in the shop.
I also need to rig up a place to mount a game camera in our front yard. We've got a variety of wildlife that shows up at night to eat mealworms that LOML puts out for the roadrunners, so we recently picked up a camera so LOML can get pics and video of them. I've got the camera temporarily mounted, but I want to set up something a bit more permanent that's not visible from the street, and thus less likely to be stolen.
No big plans for Memorial Day other than a get-together with some friends on Sunday afternoon for a socially distant cookout that'll also include some yard games and acoustic guitar playing.
