A grand daughter willfully destroys property belonging to her grandmother. She never pays a dime rent, never cleans up her damage to property outside, never pays a penny for utilities, disrespects her grandmother constantly. She works at Zetella Express Store and a contractor at Walmart, both in Griffin, Georgia. She is a pitiful grandparent/elder abuser. A squatter and trespasser.

This video explains how a simple custom built solar system in an RV works without all the crazy high tech lingo. Just a down to earth explanation that's easy to understand. It is also a very inexpensive system. This system will power a regular dorm size fridge and all the 12 volt accessories in most recreation vehicles today.

This is the final video in my efforts to restore the muscadine vineyard at Moms place in Griffin, Ga.

Visited my Mom's place in Griffin, Georgia. As usual at Mom's there was lots of work to do around her place. The Muscadine vineyard was top of the list in needing work. This is actually Part One of the effort as I went to Colorado for a while and came back again to actually do the final prune and cleanup.

I found this turquoise while prospecting for gold in Mohave County, Arizona about 50 miles south of Kingman. While its not identifiable by any specific mine I can only describe it as a cross between a Morenci Turquoise and a Bisbee Turquoise. It has a dark pyrite matrix and is beautiful blue to a deep blue in color. It has very shinny silver specks and I believe it would polish out to have a silver or gold webbing. I am offering it up for sale and I am taking offers. To make me an offer just contact me on my website at http://butchpettyoutdoors.com and likewise if you have any questions.

Purchased this welder for small jobs on the road during my travels. The welder worked great out of the box and came with everything you need including a welding mask. I repaired the rack on my little ATV for the first job. I plugged into a regular 15 amp home outlet and it didn't trip the breaker. Also it paid for itself on the very first job. $120.00 at Harbor Freight. Chicago Electric Flux 125 Welder

Leaving the west to summer back in the southeast, Georgia. Made a long two week layover at Holly Beach, Louisiana, my most favorite beach. Then Moved on to Mom's for a visit.

A visit to the Lake Meredith National Recreation Area lead me to the Lower Plum Creek Campground. The location is about 50 miles north of Amarillo, Texas

I've been adding to my solar battery capacity a little each month to achieve maximum performance. I finally completed the project
