-2F right now...warming up to a decent 35-36 degrees.
Dump run sometime this morning, then some work I brought home. That'll pretty much sum up today's activities

Don, that looks like a maths question from schooldays - If a farmer has a 14 bar cattle grid laid on 5 cross pieces and his son has a 4" trenching shovel that takes 15 seconds per scoop, how many glasses of lemonade will it take to empty the whole grid ?

No matter how you figure it the answer is always the same - a day.

Good morning! 64˚ heading to 80˚ cloudy.

Drew that disc field sure looks nice, what is going to be planted there and will you have to plant it and cultivate it also?

Sadamo is that the one you can program to follow you around while you jog or bike?

Buppies sorry to hear you have to endure more cuttings.

No, I hope not. He said my rear wheels were too close together, not spaced right for his equipment. good....I want to put the mower back on my tractor and keep it there. I'm hoping this was a one time entertainment for me, but if he wants me to do it again next year, if I can, for sure. It was time for this tractor to get a little mud on its tires.

my front tires on the Massey are adjustable, easy to do. The rears aren't. He needed them almost a foot wider. I guess one can do that to a JD 1010

40 out this AM. Sloppy day, grey, wet, but warm.

My peaches are history. Not sure about the apples. I think I told you all that. Surveying the daffodil plants, ugh, sorry looking lots. Even the tiger lilies are wilted. Azaleas are an unknown at this point. Man, it's not going to be that bursting of colors this year. Can only imaging the damage to my local farming communities.

Hope all have a great weekend. Our favorite ice cream eatery opens today for the season. Road trip is in order.

Poured first cup of coffee. 68° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 94° with mostly sunny skies. Another patio day on the schedule.
Buppies, sorry to hear about more surgery.
Good Morning All.

Oh no.
This is just a thought, no verification what so ever but
I got this in email today, I already knew it but this time if applied to our missing Ed . . . .
the last time he posted was a short post the morning after Christmas.
There is this thing called the "Holiday Effect" for people with heart disease.

"4. The Holiday Effect

For some susceptible individuals, a meal high in saturated fat can also cause angina (chest pain). This indicates a lack of blood flow to the heart. For people who have more progressed heart disease, one fatty meal can be fatal. In fact, there’s a connection between this and what’s known as the “holiday or Christmas effect, ” where more people suffer from heart attacks and strokes during the holiday season, a time when people consume more high fat foods as well as experience more stress."

How Your Body Responds to Just One High Fat Meal

I sure wish he would let us know everything is OK, if it is.

I check the local obits where Ed lives, never seen one that I thought would be him. I was down his way that week, and was going to message him about meeting somewhere. Before he moved to waynesboro, he lived near my in-laws. Still hoping the best.
