Good morning all

26 now high in the mid 40’s and sunny today.

Yesterday turned into a do nothing day other than getting gas for the wife’s car
1.89 gal.
Will put the plow on the tractor today, on the BX it’s not a huge task. I usually spend more time cleaning the shed than putting the plow on.

Thank you all for the condolences and prayers, it means a great deal to me.

Stay safe and healthy
Enjoy your day everyone

Was just thinking of a vacation up to the white mts when the kids were young.

I’m buying the BX23 my FIL had, right now keeping it at MILs house to do projects with. It has a snow blade for the front. I should put it on for winter, but she won’t even try to drive the tractor.

28 going to 53 and sunny. Heavy frost, looks like snow, but not like the big one Thomas is getting :).

Pop, that's mighty cold air...how warm can you keep the plane inside and what altitude were you?

Alien, had to look up the tawny frogmouth...we don't have them here. Interesting looking bird. We have chuck will's widow and whippoorwill birds that are a bit similar.

Something shook our house pretty hard yesterday...my wife and I were in different ends of the house and both felt it...but nothing on the earthquake map.

I remember running studded snow tires when I lived in Maine. Don’t miss them. Or the icy roads.

When I was a teenager I worked at the local service station which also sold tires. I was the lucky one who would have to stud the tires with a pneumatic insert gun. There are a lot of studs in a set of snows. Man did i hate that task LOL. Thanks for the memories

Being new here, I’m still sorting out the names, locations and projects, but it seems like a great community, thanks for not running me out of town.

The more the merrier. It just takes Mostly longer to give his nightly recap.

My FIL took flying lessons years ago, and even bought a small plane or some sort of ultralight which he never flew but kept in his barn. Fortunately he got rid of that before he passed away.

Had another friend years ago, originally from Australia who used to fly float planes in Fiji. He had moved to my area and was teaching flying gliders. He took me up once and let me fly a glider.

Coffee is done brewing. 30° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 42° with partly cloudy skies. Got tool table assembled and moved to shop. Hard part was moving Dewalt planer from cabinet to table. Manual says it weighs 80 lbs. Felt like 180 lbs. No plans for today yet.
This little guy like to pose for pictures.

Randy, special prayers for your mother.

Gadget, thought you were flying in a car. :shocked: Then looked at picture at 30k feet. Airplane. :thumbsup:

Drew, outrageous price for any lumber now.

Everyone stay healthy and safe.

Good Morning All.

No problem making it as warm as you want. Heat comes from the bleed air used for pressurizing the cabin. It’s about 400 degrees leaving the engines. That was at 30,000 feet.

Good morning! 34˚F heading to 54˚F. No freeze predicted for the next 10 days.

The broom pic was a nail picker-up-er that I made by combining the broom handle to my magnetic metal parts tray by drilling a hole in the tray handle and screwing the broom handle in the hole. I used it at the park to locate my missing chainsaw bar nut, found it in about 15 seconds.

Heading to Kyle's county to deliver groceries, the only county around here the still has no grocery delivery or phone in and pick-up. I'll stop by the garden and pick Mom some fresh kale also.

Remarkable lady...I see where "you got it." How'd she come to move to Maryland?

By way of Alabama, NC, VA, NC again, California, Alabama, VA then Maryland for the last 45 years. If my dad hadn’t died young she probably would still be in NC, and we would have missed a lot of adventures.
