Good morning, the low temp is 20 and the high going to 34°F. Wind ENE 2 mph. Mix of sun and cloud.

I scraped the three inches of snow off everybody else yesterday and then myself. Got some of the big pile in front of the house moved. I put it in front of the house to make a sort of windbreak, knowing full well that in spring it will need to be moved, before the melt overwhelms the culvert at the bend.

I'm not sure hat I will get up to today, maybe watch the snow melt.

Good shot of the BlueJay, Ron.

Have a safe day all

46 going to 68. Maybe a shower.

Hope Harry will do better on the medicine.

Kyle, congrats to your son! Great achievement.

Seems like I spent all afternoon lubing anything that moves yesterday, but actually only got the tractor, tiller, and bush hog done. I had to move a couple of implements to get to the bush hog, but got it attached and ready to tackle the fields...although I'm planning on sharpening the blades...it's an old Woods Brush Bull 72, and the blades need 450 ft lbs of torque, so not being equipped to tackle that, will crawl underneath.

Really slow day yesterday wife did not want tree cut up so stayed with her inside

We are 1.25 inch’s of rain below normal for March but grass is very green and thick. The rain for today went poof

Prayers for all our Country Ukrainian people

good morning all
76 going to 85 today in Delray Beach, another nice day
taking host to PT this morning for his bad leg, not sure what afternoon will bring.

coming out of Jacksonville gas station nice lady beeped at me and told me my rear tire cover was about to come off. And it sure was. So I stopped as soon as I could, tightened it up, and went on my way feeling very happy about that. Wrong. It blew off and was lost I guess an hour or two later. Since Amazon delivers in one day here, I just ordered another one, which came in yesterday, so THIS TIME I'm going to cinch that cord down extra tight and put a knot in it. Live and learn... it was a nice cover, colorful mountain scene, thankfully not expensive.

up early to run wash, realized I had run out of underwear. Oops. I had planned on running wash here so no surprise

sitting in living room on laptop, this house doesn't have curtains, just heavily shaded windows, but not sure how easy to see in. I'm a curtain and privacy guy so making sure to keep the lights down until the sun comes up.

I made a nice pork tenderloin roast on the barbecue for dinner last night, I thought darned good, but host started choking on the meat and that got worrisome for a while. He needs gravy or something, can't swallow chunks of meat. Live and learn on that too.

am failing at taking pics, will try to do better today

Buppies, I figure when I get home will have to fire up the mower to do the onion grass

Good Morning.
35 and heading to low 50’s today. Clear now, but rain this afternoon and evening.

Yesterday was a good day to be outside, but it was too wet to do any real work, so I spent a lot of time in the shop, make a lot of progress cleaning up, found homes for a lot of stuff that was cluttering up the horizontal surfaces. Not as much ended up in the trash as I expected.
Made a new home for the Diacro bender, which involved drilling the floor and installing wedge anchors to bolt it down.

Today will start with my wife and I joining the professor for breakfast, then I’ll probably continue in the shop. I’ve got trips Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday this week, Stuart and Vero Beach FL and Hilton Head, SC, so that will put a damper on my productivity here.

Popgadget, there are a steady stream of Gulfstream private jets coming into Boca Executive airport, this house is on flight plan. My friend tracks them on his phone app; some of these folks fly from Miami to Palm Beach, guess they don't like driving on rt 95... A few Cessnas and Bombadiers, but Gulfstream 650s pretty common. Awful lot of money down here....

Good morning! 55˚F heading to the mid 70s partly cloudy NE wind.
Whipper continues to get weaker but still manages a short walk twice a day that she looks forward to. She has a ramp to get into the backseat of the truck then I taker her to the trails. One day at a time.

The "Farm" will only need me on weekends during the Easter egg hunts, which gives me more time with Whipper.
The yard got its first mowing of the season and even though we have only had 4 tenths inch rain since I fertilized it is very green.
