Good morning!!!!

I used those LED fixtures in both my shops, and I知 putting them in Ellen痴 she shed. They are bright, clear and fill space like corners, etc..., very nicely.

These are the ones I'm using Randy.

My tubes are clear, but otherwise appear the same. Those might be clearer than the picture shows. I bought the ones for my bigger building from Home Depot, the smaller shop units came from Sams club, but were the same number on the stickers and were identical. I just paid about $10 apiece less for them.

The tubes are opaque.

The ones I bought are 5000K color temperature but HD has same ones in 4000K and 3500K, all same price.

I got clear simply because in recent years the plain bright light just lets me see better, I like the soft light from the opaque units when I walk in, but I can just see better with the clear. My daughter was commercial lighting manager of a local lighting company until she left for a similar job with an alarm company. She told me to check a bunch of different lighting situations before I decided what to replace my old fluorescent daylight fixtures with. The clear worked for my tired old eyes. I don’t recall the color temp on these, but I can look at the paperwork.

Good evening all. 31F for the start, overcast, calm wind. Freezing rain most of the day, still have ice on the cars, 33F for the high and .9 in the rain gauge. More ran/snow for tomorrow. No chance for a ride today, so wood stove duties and nap and catching up on you guys.
Roy and Bird, belated Happy Birthdays.
Don congrats on your promotion.
RNG glad trip went well in spite of bad battery and oak tree down on your driveway.
FORTRAN IV, several flavors of basic, TMS 9900 assembly.
Prayers for all.

Day not as productive as hoped. Supplier still hasn’t received the order so no staining today or tomorrow.

Did have a good day out at other project. 1” main poly propane line (Home-flex) installed. Has held pressure test for 45 minutes, will leave over night. Hopefully can cover with sand tomorrow.

Thanks Mostly and Sadamo. Today I was also first to respond for a request from the Horticulture club. That's the club that has a sub group that has the keys to the JD. They were wanting to have a tree cut down and I volunteered but I told them My chain saw wasn't big enough for anything over a 4' diameter tree. They came back and said out was a 4" diameter tree. I asked them if they wanted me to leave 4' sticking out of the ground so we could push it over and pop it out with the FEL. They had not thought about that and thought it was a good idea. Now I just have to pass their Tractor operating training and get in that sub group and I can start FEL ing mulch piles and grading roads.

Next if the hiking club can intermingle with the horticulture club and get a grapple for the tractor for the trail development it will be a win win win deal. (The third win was for me.)

If that doesn't work out when Drew comes down in two years he can bring his tractor and we will be the charter members in the "Tractor Club"! I'll have a shed ready and the club application filled out.

24 and snowing right now. The prediction is for an inch or two. High in the mid-30's. I'll hit the walks before I leave for work this morning.

29 here. We are right on the very edge of the storm. Not even enough snow to kick with your foot. I bet a mile north is getting some according to the radar. Should be partly sunny the rest of the day. Hope everyone has a great day.
