When pheasant season is over I will turn my attention to ice fishing. Work until dark cleaning farms of scrap or hauling to scrap yard. Go home with pickup of non-ferrous to sort. Open SirScrapalots twin cooler and sort metal. Two beer shower (it is cold here) followed by dinner and hour of T.V. Crash with book on face (it hurts and wakes me up when it falls). Wake up and repeat successful retirement. On weekends two trailers are loaded with scrap and hauled in first thing Monday. Goal five loads a week in good weather, three in the trying times. Hope to refine the process next year for more free time. I only allow myself eight hours a day of free time and then it is time to go to work. Otherwise I might get lazy.
    i spend alot of time on the ice...i love hard water season.

    for me my daughter wakes me up around 730-8 we do the normal morning crap till my wife gets home from work, get *****ed at till i leave, i normal spend the next few hours ether unloading the truck or re packing the truck from picking up or curb shopping the night before. clean up, go to scrap yard, have a bowl of soup. and i leave to curb shop every night around 630. i drive around until my diesel light comes on then i head home. usually stay up until all hours of the night getting stuff done, and drinking to much coffee. normaly spend some time on the laptop working on ads and flyers, thinking about the web site and not being able to stay awake long enough to get anything done about it.
