Good morning!!!!

[dmccarty]

Warm this morning and the high temp is supposed to be in the 60s. Supposed to be some nasty weather hitting this evening and tonight.

I had day old coffee, scrambled eggs, and apple bread toast for breakfast. :licking:

Dehydrated about 10 pounds of apples yesterday and made almond crackers which are still drying. Got a bunch of indoor chores to do but I have to put the tarps over the wood pile before the storm hits. It has been dry and windy so I left the tarps off the wood pile to help the wood dry.

Later,
Dan

we are getting some serious snow,all the different forecast tell different stories to me we could be looking at 10-12 inch with strong winds with drifting.we have 26 now going up to 32 today,looks like i will be taking the wife to work.

 

[Mousefield]

Had 2 more inches of snow yesterday and later had some rain showers. Just a bit above freezing so not a lot of melt although it is supposed to warm up a couple of degrees over the next few days. So it may be a green Christmas here.
Got some rain showers this morning and a temp of +0.2C, should warm up to 3-4C later.

Roy, glad you are getting settled in and at work.
Sounds like the move went reasonably well.

Well, it's NOT postcard Hawaii, but we love it. and then there's the TBN special

David,

Careful what you say there!

My wife would like to go back to Hawaii, and the girls are begging to go. We were married on Kuai back in 93 just after they reopened the island after Iniki. We also took our very first vacation in Waikiki way way back in 1989 or 90...

The Big Island looks very pretty...

66 degrees and overcast, but sun trying to break though. .17 inches since midnight on top the 1.21 we got yesterday. My genset is humming.

Suppose to go with a neighbor and look at a Deere 25A flail he wants to buy - $1600.

Good morning all. Temps were around upper 40's this morning temps have dropped to 34F and intermittent snow and WINDY. Have had two power surges just now so will post quick

 

[mostly_gas]

Roy good to see you back on line, glad to hear all is going forward if not well. :thumbsup:

David (Sodamo) have always liked the Big Island, like the idea of banana nut bread toast. :licking:

TxDon forward, mush, keep going ... you get the drift. (as if this will get you to do more :laughing

39 and windy here. Terrible weather. My dogs are achieving zen - they are becoming one with the couch.

Well, we're in Vermont!
I've been working at my new job...seems to be a good fit and a lot of work to do!

Oh good! Now you can ship out all those Vermont Castings stoves you promised all of us for Christmas.:thumbsup:

Glad you made it and everything is coming together. I figure I'm too old to ever move again. They'll just have to drag my carcass out into a ditch and bury me here some day.:laughing:

 

[sodamo]

or at least the Vermont Casting arts to repair my grill

was 17 degrees when I got up this morning, having a problem with the IPAD app so I am back on the regular computer. Seem to happen yesterday and when I reset it I could not get to the write portion of the application. Gee life is tough for older folk. Dave when does that deer season end for you guys? We are on the last of it and it is only bow hunting now. Another good year for the deer as far as my hunting goes LOL. Oh and take it easy on that money issue??guess you need to do what you have to do just know it will look great!

I think they did n upgrade of the app (ver 1.6) now part of screen is dead. Sorry for being so late with this post just started catching up on my reading.

You must be a sadist talking about banana pancakes and big bunch of banana ripening in Hawaii. :laughing:
We have sustained 60 mph wind, it is cold, snow is blowing horizontal, my PV panels are totally encased in ice. I will have to use my tractor to dig us out out of snow tomorrow morning. We can just dream about nice and balmy Hawaii.
Happy holidays.

 

[sodamo]

So much for sunshine, almost another half inch since I posted this morning and still coming down.

Checked out the Deere 25a flail with my friend. Bait frozen, unable to turn gearbox by hand (has been sitting in barn for 3 years). Offered $500 for it and guy accepted after thinking about it.

Well, it's either the end of the world today....or the end of the week at least.
32 degrees and snowing right now. Got about an inch or so on the porch. Should be turning to rain in a bit.

Biggest drag about the place we're renting is there's no place to park the Deere inside...bummer, and it's one reason we won't be buying this place.
I do have the block heater plugged in at the tractor. The cable will probably stay rigged until warmer weather.

The prediction for the weekend is cold!!! As in low single digits!! I LOVE it!!!

 

[toppop52]

Power just came back on, no Matans in sight, must be the 50 mph winds causing it!

Well said Roy!

My suspicion is it is just another Friday...

49 headed to a high of 48 (thats what the weather says) it poured rain last night. I wonder what the hunting will be like this morning...

I'm almost completely done Christmas shopping, now the wrapping needs to begin ...

Be well all,
David

Drinking second cup of coffee. 32 degrees with light snow falling. Heading to 36 with winds and snow throughout the day. Off to my mothers today.
I read somewhere here on TBN that laying paver bricks can be a problem with high winds. :confused3: Looks like there will be some bricks left to be set when we get to TX later this next. That's OK, need to get a picture of the last brick being set in place.
Good Morning All.

 

[johnk]

36 degrees and the weather is to start getting worse as the day goes on. Winter weather warning here fron 4 pm today to 6 pm tomorrow with a foot and a half of snow possible................

 

[txdon]

Good Morning! 32˚now going to 63˚ with sunny skies and winds less than 5mph from the North.
You're right Ron, the wind with gust up to 40 mph was causing all sorts of problems laying pavers. Later in the day it calmed down to about 20 mph and I was able to work but took a beating. At the end of the day one knee was swollen and holes had wore through my glove and fingers bleeding. A couple bandaids and Advil and I'm anxiously awaiting sunrise to battle it again. I'm still on schedule to wrap this project up before next year.

There will be many cuts today as the driveway flares and connects to the circle.
