had a nice thanksgiving break full of eating, drinking an relaxing.

Woke up well rested on Friday morning and got dressed for a good, calm day:

Was able to get out on the dock and fish a little bit.

Afterwards I made a Sirloin Sandwich with my favorite tortilla chips and organic salsa. Paired it with Sierra Nevada Pale Ale

After dinner, we sat around and watched movies, and had coffee drinks.

Espresso+Brandy+homemade whip cream=

great pics, catch any fish?

[appfaff]

Thanks dude!

Naw, nothing was bitting, but a bad day of fishing beats a good day working right? haha

[givemefive]

takin it easy on the fashion today, hard on the tools

cut all the panels for a 15" sealed cabinet subwoofer that will eventually have some rustic trimmings

this shop smith has more torque than a honda civic

15 year old craftsman router wouldn't start after I spent half an hour crafting a circle jig out of plastic

new 2hp plunge router is pretty badass plus it kind of comes with its own jig only needed a couple modifications. I should have picked up another carbide bit though cause MDF is nasty shit

here i'm done with the first part of the routing work. 30minutes to cut through that sucker after spending an hour trying to get a true circle out of it on scrap

jeans are gonna need a wash and the panel a 1/2" rabbit to finish off that for a flush mounting woofer

Day 5 went to a vintage toy store in Camberwell

[LC_Miey]

^^ never been to the toys shop but it looks interesting. hah i wanted to go to the camberwell market this morning but it was raining..

[You Ren]

Went to this water town Zhu Jia Jiao on the outskirts of Shanghai

Business was slow for the local hairy crab saleswoman

And the pork knuckles trade...

Snapped some great additions to my typology of chinese bikes such as this QJiang ... check the handwarmers!

Drank some fresh sugarcane juice

Came across this old bird selling chickens

Tagged & bagged

Did some target shooting

Set some fish free

[You Ren]

Came across this rabid crowd of tourists fighting over the local speciality "zhong zi" (sticky rice wrapped in leaves). This shop had been on TV so the trading was fast & furious

Tried to get in on the action myself

Who knew so many animals could be made from woven grass reeds... great profit margin in that!

Had a chat with the local maker of wooden brushes and swords (for when the pen is just not mighty enough)

Enjoyed the local snacks like toffied shrimp on a stick

Thought seriously about buying another tortoise to replace the ones my dogs ate

It was freezing...

But I took my jacket off so y'all could appreciate my chambray

Yes, it was a good day...

[lance]

Shanghai great post You Ren!

[beatle]

crazy pics....do they really bag the chicken while it is alive ? how cruel....

[ninetynine]

Chicken part bummed me out, hand warmer part confused me.

[ThisSunday]

Went bowling for the first time in years

Shoes are still ugly

Hands on with Swatch

I still suck

I hate cabs and yellow Hummers

Listening to...

That's a fun place to visit. The shop owner has been running this business for years. And he knows a lot about toys

I ordered one to try it , the man at the donuts shop saw me taking photos and was very kind to give me three I am not a fan of fried food, but this one is nice

oil-tined garments

Nick is like a history of Australian posters. I recommend anyone doing graphic design pay him a visit.

bought these from him

[-Z-]

lazy sunday in a new pair of jeans! The wife came home from black friday with a pair of (cheeeeeeeep) Levi's 501 STF. finally found a 32x38 in MPLS!

Took the old Canon A-1 out to shoot some B&W film today...think i got some really solid shots.

Put up the X-mas tree with the little one and the wife today...

and enjoyed a nice Trader Joe's Vintage Ale.

and the Vikings-Bears game...oh Favre

[Vinneus]

"must spread" nice Z!

This was the first time I've seen them selling live chickens that you take home and kill yourself. And yes it went into the bag alive, with it's feet trussed up. I guess when you buy live it's cheaper and fresher, and usually free range.

In China the road side chicken sellers normally kill, bleed and pluck the chicken for you. But you only see this in the smaller cities or old quarters of the big cities. In the tier 1 cities like Shanghai, people buy chicken from the supermarket or wet market butcher just like westerners.

I do think there's something honest in killing your own meat though. It's very confrontational and makes you realise how desensitised & pampered we are these days.

[beatle]

you are probably right....I just couldn't do it...I'd end up with a bunch of chickens running around in the backyard..lol

[farmer]

Up with the sun leaving my girlfriends place to head for mine and go to work.

Open up the retail greenhouse.

Say good morning to the cat and print yesterdays settlement. Wait for employees to arrive....

Water the cyclamen. Poinsettias don't need it today. Besides it's not good to water them on cloudy/rainy days.

Build a quick partition and door frame to save on heating costs. Used left over green house poly. Keep it on the cheap.

To the workshop...

Sharpen my chainsaw an head out to the woods.

always enjoy ur pictures, Mr. Farmer
