Good morning!!!!

[daugen]

a little finger of snow is poking down from New York, may give some flurries in a little bit, more likely North of here.
Popgadget, fair skies for you

Ron, you are very talented at this but I hope you take a supervisory role.
Sometimes we need to let younger folks do this stuff. I sure do.
now seat time we get til we fall out of it.
our tractors should be the last to go...
just look at Dennis's Dad.

Buppies, hope you are having a good day. You surely deserve a few.

time for breakfast and second cup.
hope you all have a great day.

Good morning TBN!!
27 this morning. Should be mid 60s this afternoon with increasing clouds. Big storm to move in overnight/early morning. Bringing 40 to 50 MPH winds with it.
Another trip to town yesterday. I needed a longer axle for my torch project. It shoulda been done in just an hour or so. I've stretched it out way to much and for way to long. Got back and did some fitting. Will weld it up today and try out the Yeswelder helmet that came yesterday.
Finally got my steps back over 9k. Dog appreciates it.
Just puttered for the rest of the day.
No real plans for today. I'll tack the axle on and then do some pre wind clean up.
News said this morning that there are about 200 fires burning in the Carolinas. Thankfully the nearest one is about 60 miles from us. I hope it stays that way. With all the wood down from Helene there is plenty of fuel to make them get real bad real quick.

Time for a second cup!
Everyone have a great and safe day!!

Good Morning,
Ct, 22 to start going to 48 ! Partly cloudy right now, hopefully some sun moving in this morning!

Looks like I will be working a few hours this morning and possibly a few hours tomorrow morning before the heavy rains move in ! Really don’t like working in the rain, especially heavy rains move!

to time a visit to Popgadget's later this week

Drew, you might be just in time for some smoked pork belly ! Wish that Paul was closer, I would come and visit also !

Ron, glad to hear you have some younger help for the roof !

Happy, I’m hoping to get some steps in after work today !

Hope all have a good Tuesday !

Ron, glad to hear you have some younger help for the roof !

My 40 year old neighbor is called the Kid. I still call my 2 sons Kids. They are 61 and 52. All my other neighbors know who I am talking about. Even though some are younger than 40.
I am the Supervisor.

Good morning,
19° now high 48° winds SW at 10-15 mph. Mix of sun/clouds this morning, cloudy afternoon.

Loved reading about the winter memories of youth, mine echoed many of the same. We had a “huuuge” hill to sled and toboggan on, at least it was huge to us kids lol. I even tried a blanket sail on the sled with a mast made from hockey sticks, didn’t work very well, got the idea after watching someone on the pond flying around on an iceboat. Great times, thanks for digging up the memories. My favorite was pond hockey, we would play every afternoon when ever there was good ice. Spent a lot of time with a shovel clearing the ice.

Yesterday stayed busy after shopping cleaning out more boxes from shed loft and loaded into truck for next dump run. Mrs snuck out and picked up Chinese for supper, plenty left for tonight as well .

Funny this talk of printers, my hp ink jet wouldn’t print as usual, so went the brother monochrome laser route last week, still needs to be unboxed and set up, maybe today?

Enjoy your day everyone
Stay safe and healthy

good morning, 34 going to 59 wind gusts to 11 mph

Going for wife infusion and picking up groceries

Working on getting the injured finger moving is work in progress. Amazing how being immobile for 4 weeks can make it that hard to get it to bend. Using various ways including taping it to put pressure on it

39 outside this AM. Should head up to 60 today. Dry, then the weather people say wet, real wet for Wednesday.

Another late night with real jobs. Things are breaking all over. Not good.

Not sure what I will get into today. May have to pay neighbor a visit. Dogs are howling like a wild pack of animals, this AM at 6. Over the last few days, random. Takes them about 3 or four minutes before they quiet up. Darn annoying. Must be at least 3 or 4 of them. Not hunting dogs, so no idea what is messing with them. Sure is loud.

Hope all have a great day. Be safe.

 

[Buppies]

two big Fords saying good morning to each other this morning:
