35F now low 40's for high w/rain snow mix.

Students at college starting to head home for Thanksgiving today which will make things ALOT easier plus.
Still not use to losing an hour of day light.

Enjoy the day all.

48/60 today then colder, then warmer, then colder.
Got a letter from SS yesterday, unrelated to my wife’s passing, telling me they’d been paying me too much and were basically cutting my benefit in half! Gotta make an appointment to see what that’s about. When it rains it pours!

Drinking first cup of coffee. 36° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 39 with mostly cloudy skies. Got all the parts for speed reducer made. Now I need time to put it together. La Crosse weather station for some reason has stated to work. Need to mount wind and rain sensor today. Need to shut garden pond pump down and remove all the filters today. Then pickup last of yard ornaments that cannot stay out the winter. That should keep me busy most of the day.
Drew, I really like my F series JD. 2 things I wish I had gotten. 4wd and rear discharge mower. I would have to look at JD again since my Kubota dealer is now almost 40 miles away. I have 3 Commercial JD dealers less than 15 miles away.
Randy, still sending good thoughts your way. SS screw up? Hope that gets straightened out.
Good Morning All.

Good morning!
34 going down to 30 and 'periods of rain or snow'. Wind ESE 2mph.

I gotta go to the butchers today, so I will have to bite the bullet and pay out $1.239/Litre of gas. That works out not including exchange to $4.68/US gallon. YUK! I am going to need about 20 gallons to fill it. I don't normally let my tank get this low, but I had an extra run to North Bay last week and no extra money for gas, then. The good thing is that I have a $0.07/L coupon so in actuality I will be paying $1.169/L.

Have a good day all.

Eric that last photo reminds me of my Grandpas out house. (bathroom) he had one smaller hole and one larger hole. Yours could seat an entire family.

or

A stockade for a two headed person.

or

A stockade for two people that were arrested for fighting and you lock them up side by side and each has one hand to continue to beat each other.

Don, step 1 is to recognize the problem ...

Yea, I have completed step one by posting the problem. There is only one step, right.

There is this toaster over that can do everything my air frier does and has a proof setting for my homemade bread . . . .

Oh by the way, my wife says that she would not have bought any of the appliances except the Instant Pot (which we have 3 of) - as she eats air fried french fries and dehydrated kale chips. Hypocrite.

L4N, that sure is expensive living so far away from "civilization", the price you pay... I filled up for $2.33 a gallon yesterday, almost exactly half that price.
Of course David/Sodamo has us all beat likely. And not a race you want to win for sure...
But if it gets you to Paradise....well. And we all have our own paradise, the North Woods, the seacoast of Maine, living on stilts in Key West.
I'll pass on the igloo in Alaska though...

Drew, I really like my F series JD. 2 things I wish I had gotten. 4wd and rear discharge mower.
Thanks. Local JD is only big Ag, I feel lost in there. Definitely Rear Discharge, but I'm so flat here I don't need 4wd at all.
It adds thousands in cost too. The question is whether I sell my JD diesel garden tractor. Always like having backup...plus I use it for lots of things other than
mowing. Last time I sold something I didn't think I'd need any more I almost immediately regretted it. A bush hog. Just had to buy a new one, though much smaller.
But the JD is worth a lot of money still, only 450 hours and three years old. Assuming I do get the new mower, I'll make sure it does what I want it to and then will probably put the JD
in CraigsList in the Spring. With the new small Massey, I have enough pulling devices and might be time to simplify a bit. Plus these F mowers are seriously expensive tools which the JD was and I'd like to apply the value of the old mower to the new. Maybe my way of justifying it. Paying five figures annually for help, payback here is in less than four years if I cut current help
in half. That's good ROI for me. I just need to pace myself better than I did before. Not try to do it all at one time.

Good morning! 64˚cloudy heading to 75˚.
With heavy clouds yesterday I did not do tractor work and it looks like it could rain any minute today also, so more caulking under the porch areas.

Drew, good news your tooth is finally healing.
Randy, hope SS is making another mistake.

Good morning! I have a sick boy with fever. Waiting for 8AM to call and get a dr appt.

Eric, nice little town. Wonder what the population of Teslas is there? Also, the does the item in the last photo keep the scalawags away?

Drew and Ron, years ago, there was an F series diesel at our shop getting an engine rebuild. I asked why, and was told the rear discharge can cause an extreme amount of dust to get to the engine, and that the owner or filtration had failed to do their part. They said side chute is much better for dusty conditions. To each their own. I would love to have one. Ron has had his for years. Drew, just remember that heat in July and August when making your final decision.

Ed, hope back gets better. When we were younger and sick, you could at least watch old episodes of Perry Mason during the day.

Wngsprd, you have the energy of a young boy.

Randy, still praying for you. We all know there will be tough moments. And that is OK. Grief is tough, but I believe that it is directly proportional to the amount of love there was. Make plans with friends and family to share love. Reminisce about funny moments.

L4N, how far north in Northern Ontario? Can you see Santa's place? Is he keeping the elves busy?

Hope all of you have a blessed day.
