@Unca Walt we have this displayed in the survey area of our office.

Look familiar?
You betcha, @Sun&Soil. Standard. I note that one is the basic; no vertical plate. I used them all.

AHA! Here's a Buff & Buff: Started making them in 1871. It was my fave...

Hey!! I just thought of sumpin' -- a highlight, if you will. I once "bucked in" a transit in just two steps. I admit I was stone lucky, but nevertheless -- my crew was impressed.

Bucked in --> You set up your transit on the imaginary line between two distant points. You set up the transit, take a flip view of each distant point, and move the transit so that when you turn it 180 or flip it, the crosshairs hit the points both ways.

The plumb bob hanging from the transit will be exactly on that invisible imaginary line... so you can then take off from any angle, knowing your baseline.

Now that you got me started, I still have my loupe somewhere... It was worn around your neck like a lavalier... a badge of office.

I hear you Subbie but I have this little fear in the back of my mind that she would hurt me… I just can’t wrap my head around the fact that she’s attracted to me. My sister thinks she’s looking for my Social Security check. I would be happy to die up with a heart attack if she decided to give me one…😱
Just for the record boo, there is no reason to wonder why someone would be attracted to you. You are a handsome guy with a great personality. Your sister may be onto something but prolly just looking out for you.

Sounds to me like you live in the Land of Eternal Summer. It is now a steamy 58F and the wind chimes are chiming. Wood stove is doing a slow burn so MamaD stays toasty. I get to haul the wood into the house. She thanks me for that.
(*sigh*) I gotta do it. Herself just turned on the...

AIR CONDITIONING :eek:

It is 80F 86F outside right now at 3PM. TINS, Pilgrims. Check it out on Ventusky.com

@BubbasPlace -- The standard treatment is not a one-off. It goes: HEAT it up, COOL it off.

In that order. When you apply heat, it increases blood flow, removing the stuff*** that gets in muscles that are hurting. Then you cool it off to slow down the metabolism of the colder cells.

*** Lactic acid <-- HEAT assists removing lactic acid buildup better than cold.

Heat it up, cool it down.

NOTE:
"Halfies" work, but only half as good as the whole procedure. <-- This from Dr. Scooter
Does not work for me. I've had docs tell me to do it with bad ankle sprain. That was helpful. For me, this pain comes from muscles clenching up and not letting go. Hate muscle relaxers. Hot does fine. If I try to cool, it just clenches back up!

The hot,cold in succession is excellent for taking the swelling down on a blown out ankle when done correctly.

Yes, for that injury, it worked well. When my back clenches up bad, one hip is slightly higher on one side. Wait a minute ..or was I slightly higher? Sometimes you can feel a knot until it goes away, but that hadn't happened in years.

Losing weight was key.

As I accelerate in my galaxy this morning whilst during a constitutional, I thought of Lord of the Rings and Metamucil.
Before Metamucil it was like Gandalf fighting the Balrog.
'I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the flame of Anor. You cannot pass. The dark fire will not avail you, flame of Udûn. Go back to the Shadow!
Then came Metamucil and from "You can not pass..." to "Nothing to see here,leave as quick as you got here and dont let the door hit you on the way out"
Cant imagine me on dabs....
Oh, you'd just roll over and poop yourself! 😆

@bigsur51 sounds like you suffer from a potassium deficiency with that cramping. Maybe have the infamous Lady Swede give you a foiler feeding. She can rub you down with some smashed bananas or throw Fruit Loops at you...

Should work for a temperary fix, but I would try and diagnose what's causing the nutrient lock out.
Didn't Elvis do that with ann Margaret?

Oh, just call her up, do your business, buy her a house, make her leave. Saved the wedding expenses! Win-win.
