Good morning!!!!

[daugen]

chilly morning, thermometer said 47 in shade in back yard, going up to low 70's today.
Had to turn some heat on in bedroom last night but holding off on house heat as long as I can.
Sunny days heat up the house anyway.

headed off to Garden Club this morning with full bag of birdhouse gourds, which should last about three minutes after
I put them on the giveaway table. Then home to mow some lawn. Powerwashers did great job as usual, house looks an entire shade whiter now.

RNG, my sister got a good laugh about your Mill Valley statement, she just said yes....and she still has no power, still staying at friend's apt in downtown SF until power comes back on.

And to think I sold my Generac stock last year since it hadn't accomplished much....now they are probably working three shifts to keep up.
Read in another thread there were generator thieves, out looking to steal unwatched gens. Nothing like a little adversity to bring out the best and worst...


Eric, that octagon roof looks very cool, have fun with it.

45 degrees this morning, light rain (sure hope we get enough to amount to something) with 22 to 29 mph northerly breeze; just heard the first thunder of the day.

To me the great pleasure of getting older is being able to take hours, days, weeks, or months over something. What would once have been a reckless waste of time is now just slightly foolish.

Eric, you left out years.

Good morning! Colder than Ron this morning at 48˚F and slow roll rain. 50˚F cooler than yesterday afternoon, amazing. Today feels like the first day of Fall staying in the 50s all day.

After only finding one refrigerator to fit all the requirements, and no one had that one on the floor, we decided to move the goalpost and expand our list by requiring only the absolute necessities.
Counter Depth (has to be or pantry door will not open), fingerprint-resistant stainless steel ( to match the rest of the appliances) 20-23 cuFT. 3 bins min for produce, and french door, and on sale during Black Friday event ( which usually starts Nov1.)

RNG how do the LG refrigerators fair in the Consumer Reports, the counter depth ones without the "family hub"?

We cleared the hiking trail to two water crossing and will let the CA pick out which one they want to fund construction and maintain. The rough cut for the main trail is finished and we will wait a week while some of our group travels to Pennsylvania for a Hiking group hiking vacation before we start again on the loop trails and side connecting trails.

I was going to wash the vehicles and mow today but it has to stop raining first.

BEF the best therapy is a project that only you can do and it has to get done.

50 early, going to 70 later, no real rain in the forecast. Prayers for all.

The overnight low was 8° kind of cold for this time of year. Yesterday was cold and windy, today is supposed to be in the mid 50's with less wind and sunny.

I did get a few things done yesterday. Working on getting the trailer ready for a elk hunt the first of next month. And need to finish a table I'm making for one of the neighbors.

Hope everyone has a good start to the weekend.
CWB.

Good morning!
The temp is 50°F and headed for a high of 64. 10% chance of precipitation.

I don't know what I am going to do today, but to be sure I probably wont do anything until about noon.


Have a good day all

Now I’ve struck fear internationally. At least Don’s on board. Looking has good advice, don’t start till at least noon. These projects I’m doing have been put off for years.

Wife left for an all day boondoggle to PA with a couple friends. Thinking of maybe doing something safe, like removing the rest of this fence. This snowball shrub has grown through the wire.
2 of 3 posts rotted off on this side of the gate. If I butcher the bush, this will actually be more dangerous than climbing a ladder.

My BH has been off twice.

60°F and rain this morning, dropping through the day to 36° overnight. It had already dropped to 50° by the time I got to work at 07:00.

We got quite a bit of rain last night. Started just after I got home around 5pm, and is supposed to continue until just before noon today. There were a few brief downpours, but mostly it's been a nice, steady rainfall. It's been awhile since we've gotten any appreciable rain here, so it's a welcome event.

No outside stuff yesterday due to the rain, so I spent the evening working on the guitar. Mounted the neck to the body, then started mounting hardware and electronics. Will probably get the electronics all soldered up this weekend, which should make it playable.



Truck loads of fill dirt were being dumped behind the barn yesterday evening. Guess I need to get back there this weekend and sort through my pile of railroad ties for the new shooting berm. Going to pick the good ones and let The Wife's cousin come over and get any he might want, then the rest are going in the big hole as fill.

~20F this morning, expected mid 40s today.

I like to get 7hrs of sleep, and as others noted, have to get up to P at least once. In the last few months, I have gone to bed much earlier and been getting 8hrs+, no naps since I am still working.. but sometimes I fall asleep in my easy chair in the evening.. and then wake up and go to bed at bedtime.

My back decided to give me grief for several hours during the night.. even tried stretching, much better this morning..

Stay safe, prayers for those in need.

Drew, I missed it probably, how did the front end alignment turn out? did it fix your shimmy issues?

David, I was wondering if it made sense to lift your backhoe with tractor loader and reposition it on pallet or dolly so you can hook it up easier?
