Good morning!!!!

[Eric Salop]

Good morning. The promised week of good weather lasted all of 2 days. It has rained all night and is still coming. The last group of ewes that came yesterday are not happy that I have kept them in a small compound so the lambs can stay under cover. They are protesting at full volume, I think I will put ear plugs in when I top up their hay racks.

Had a couple of enjoyable hours of CV "self isolation", sat in a tractor cab, pulling a roller over a field that got rutted while bringing in cattle muck.

and this for dessert? Traditional Spotted Dick (English Steamed Currant Pudding with Vanilla Custard) - The Daring Gourmet

with a bucket of custard :licking:

I really enjoyed being busy at work today and not having time to be bombarded with all the CV news.

BEF, for those of us used to being bombarded with nothing but Brexit news, this almost makes a pleasant change

Good morning all.

Should be a nice day today. 43 heading to 59. I think I will try and get the wife familiar with the tractor today and see if she can move the burn pile. That and I need to take a walk into the back. We are thinking about getting with the state and county to protect our stream bed with a conservation buffer. We have a lot of soggy ground in spots along the creek and over these past two years it has not been maintained. Mother Nature looks like she wants it back, and the government will help keeping my animals out of the water.

Any one else have programs available in your area that does this sort of stuff?

Have a good day. Be safe and stay healthy.

49 going to 60. Rain probably tonight.

Rip, I've read a good bit about the program and farms that participate and hope you can do it.

Prayers said for your moms, Kyle and Don. I also worry about my mom and MIL, in 80s.

Jay, hope you are feeling better after your fall. Buppies, are you still sore in the ribs from yours?

The vultures finished off the dead possum I moved over near the woods. I got trail cam pix of up to 8 vultures at a time, some fights, and a few of the red tail, too. Skin and bones now.

Good morning, temp is 13°F and going to a high of 36. Wind NW 3 mph. Mix of sun and cloud.

We got an inch of snow yesterday, but with the frost coming out of the ground, the snow melted.

I've got my weekly dump run and town today.

I think on Monday I will go to Brampton (4 hour drive one way) and get my shelter covers. I was going to get them while I was down south attending the meetings, but corporate cancelled them until further notice. I got lucky and got all of my reservation money back from the motel room I booked. When you book a room online you pay upfront and get a better rate. Usually, the room is non-refundable, but they said they were refunding everything I paid to the CC.


Have a safe day all

Need to pour second cup of coffee. 29° with mostly clear skies this morning. Heading to 47° with pm rain. Got 2 item off my list and out of the shop yesterday. Got hydraulic top link hooked up and installed on tractor. Checked out lights on back of tractor. Got numbers off bulbs so I can order LED's. Today I need to clean up shop where I spilt hydraulic oil from old top link cylinder. Then I will probably attract next item on the pile.
Saw where Amazon is delaying orders.
Menards has been caught raising prices on cleaning supplies and mask. What they did was double price. Then give you a coupon for refund. This helped stop people from buying large quantities in their stores. :dance1:
Woodpecker colors are getting brighter.


Buckeye, getting out and doing stuff helped me a lot yesterday. I need to spend less time reading.

Looking, bucket of frozen custard would be good with me. Probably not the same as your custard.

Eric, seat time works.

Buppies, thanks for pictures. Looks very steep.

Jay, hope your fall did not create any long term pain.

Riptides, tractor projects for wife. :thumbsup:

Hawkeye, I have always been bothered by fragrances. Hope daughter gets this straighten out with employer.

Mostly, must be getting close to getting boat ready for some fishing.

Drew, looking forward to video of your place.

Good Morning All
