Good morning!!!!

[Looking4new]

The goobermint offices are closed today for some kind of holiday. So I guess I will call them tomorrow and see what programs I qualify for and apply.

Phil, nice dragons!

I am apparently the world's worst host.

Had a houseful of friends/company which is a Fall tradition for us. Friends traveled long distances and brought gifts, food, wine, liquor, and more. And Rigby very much enjoyed playing with a dog one of them brought.

In return, I gave them all Covid. One day into their visit, I went from healthy to being knocked flat. So I only saw little of them. Fortunately everyone finished their long travels back home before they got hammered with the same illness I had.

Everyone got blindsided. I must have been exposed to Covid, somehow, just prior to their arrival. I still don't know how.

I was "down hard" for 2 days, then maybe another 2 days rebuilding normal vitality. Came to our CA property for a few days to do some work. And am feeling well enough to split and stack firewood today. But I still have friends who are bedridden and quite sick. Really nasty stuff. Nobody saw this coming.

But I did find a bird pix for Ron ...

Plow, that's tough luck. Glad you're doing better now.

Plowhog, feel better soon, sorry you are going through this.
not the kind of memories you wanted to give your friends...

waiting for Ted to stop over so we can continue
Ted's Most Excellent Adventures...

sat outside and fell asleep in chair with soft sun rising
supposed to be 30 mph gusts this afternoon so have to leave the awning in

It's a good and a cool morning here. Sun is just poking thru the pines and it's 26F outside. Brownie was surprised to see frost on the grass.

FWT, nice picture !

Seventy°F and .zero three inches rain.

I may have mentioned recently that I disappointed in my greenhouse seedlings. Yesterday I learned that may not have been the definitive opinion. When I checked they were all gone, apparently a meal for some approving, salad eating critter. Basically just a tray of rock wool pieces and some hulls. Started anew, this time using covered trays.

Today I celebrate #41 on the anniversary wheel. I am so BLESSED. That lobster dinner we missed last week is scheduled for this Wednesday.

Happy Hour in town this afternoon

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Happy Anniversary, hope the Lobster shows up this time Sodamo !

Any recommendations for wood filler compound to use for 2x2 inch hole?

64°F and partly cloudy this morning, going up to 79° today.

Had a long, entertaining weekend which I'll have to recount when I have more time later.

Drew and Ted's Excellent Adventures sounds like fun.

Happy Birthday (-ish), Paul.

Good afternoon, gents.

Well afternoon now;

How many of you have stick bugs and what have you had success with to kill them. Had quite a few last fall and this spring. Seeing them showing up again and trying to get in the house.
I did make a round of the house this morning with an insecticide to hopefully knock them down.
Used this product had never heard of it before, Talak 7.9% Insect Control - Bifenthrin.
Was thinking above Sevin liquid but I've heard that it's formulation has changed.

Thanks
