Good morning!!!!

[Ed of all trades]

Good morning all, 46 this morning going to 66 and sunny. Did almost nothing other than the needed in house things yesterday. Fixed the fence around the pool. Took about 1/2 hr and easy work. Need to mow one last time to trim the grass a little and chop up some leaves so they don't kill the grass in places. Want to get started on wife's warp rack today, we will see.

Buckeye, Hoping and praying all went well and that you recover quickly.

Drew, Good luck on the super A, hope it does well. Tell your neighbor you want the 140 and you would have something else to fiddle with.

Have a great day Ed

I hope Buckeye is waking up to a nice breakfast and in much improved health.
Probably quite sore...
We're rooting for you.

L4N, now that food run is a good example of making a list and checking it twice.
At least your ice cream won't melt on the way home...

PJ, watched a program on TV the other day. Cahokia Mounds. In my many years of travel around St Louis and southern Il. I never heard of it.

Good morning! 56˚ heading to only 72˚ sunny and a light north wind.
Drew I'm sure you will enjoy your "A". I always like the fact that I could hand crank mine if the battery was dead. Parts were never a problem. I did get some 12 ton Jack stands from Harbor Freight for mine they fit perfect for holding the front end up while I worked on the tires, hubs or steering linkage. When you don't use it for a while (months) make sure you depress the clutch with a stick so the clutch does not freeze up.

Buckeye wake up you only get one day off.

MB is super comfortable and a steal, you pay pennies on a dollar for a used one and if they have been maintained,
all good. And you get to put the top down. You need to go back 30 years for a good SS....

39F break of dawn might reach 50F.
Sure felt good compare to yesterday morning temp, dirt roads should get slimy.

Enjoy the day all.

45°F and cloudy this morning, going up to 54° today.

Good to hear from you, BEF. Hope things worked out for you.

Ron, that's a fascinating place. I grew up just a few miles from there in Granite City IL. The main mound there, called Monk's Mound, is quite a climb to the top, from which you can see not only downtown St. Louis, but also on a clear day as far as downtown Clayton MO 15 miles away. Incredible to think that all that dirt was moved by hand. Most of the mounds are much smaller, and some are quite scattered. I know of one near Mitchell IL just off of I-270 that is about 7 miles from the main site. Quite a spectacular civilization ... that just disappeared.
