Good morning!!!!

[LS Tractor Owner]

Good morning to all! Low of 36, going up to 67, sunny. It was not forecasted to be windy, but I am watching the trees / shrubs rocking back and forth.

Did not do any landscaping yesterday, needed a break anyway. Busy day anyway, went to the grocery store and got everything we needed. Shelves were relatively stocked, typical stuff (bleach, paper goods in very short supply). An odd area of empty shelves was the plastic bag area, all trash bags, food storage, and wraps were cleared out. I am guessing that all the food that people stockpiled now has to be frozen.

After getting back from the store, went to the neighbor and dug the hole for her pet pig. The vets came at noon and put him down. She was upset to say the least. Then the vets helped put him in the hole. Covered and graded the area. She could not watch. It is hard to loose a pet, no matter what kind.

Eric, thanks for the pics of the lambs racing. The fun of youth spreads across all species. Is there a certain one that always starts the fun? Beautiful place you have.

Drew, did you plant the flowers yet? Anxiously waiting for some of your award winning landscape pics.... I need some more inspiration!

RNG, I can imagine you will be in really great physical shape by the time you are done with the concrete... who needs a gym...:construction::thumbsup:

I tried to get a few bags of shredded mulch locally, none to be had. Decided to make a run to the big city late yesterday afternoon down to Lowe’s for some, good deal at 5 for $10. Needed gas in the truck, $1.25 gal at Costco. First time ever that there was no lines at the pump. Overall a quick productive trip.

Everyone have a great day!

Yes, but for what I was doing yesterday, a root grapple would have been more appropriate...:confused2:

63°F and cloudy this morning, going up to 80° today.

Drew, I took a brief jaunt through a couple of the CV threads awhile back - I think they were in the process of getting #5 shut down at the time - and saw more than enough to encourage me to not go back. I've seen some snarkiness popping up in other threads as well. I'm thinking the lack of an "Unfriendly" outlet here is causing some of the thinner skinned members to lash out in other places. That's a shame. I've already unsubscribed to one popular thread that can't seem to stay on-topic anymore. On the bright side, I suppose that it's making my morning reading (catching up) list a bit shorter.

Entertaining, RNG, that you talk of removing and burning three dozen trees, then end with "Anyway, that's all I got done yesterday." You're making me feel lazy.

Hope your sister is getting better, BEF.

I had to go back and see who the new guy was when I saw the quote, Rick. Skipped right over that you changed your screen name. (I usually just look at the avatars.)

Well, Ted, they say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and from all the aches and pains, it's pretty clear I'm still alive...:mischievous:

I got a notice from the phone company that they have an appointment scheduled today to fix the internet. No time listed, but it will be fixed by the end of the day.

Let痴 recap....heard that line Thursday, Friday, and Monday......the track record is not good.

Sorry, had to vent......

Good morning All.

39 here at sunrise, headed to 65 with mixed clouds and sun. Rain this evening with thunderstorms at night forecast.

I was lucky to get a haircut and beard trim today. I live with my stylist!!

We cut lawn yesterday and I got some “repair” areas seeded and watered.

I think today will be energy conservation . Please stay healthy!

A crystal clear, sunny 37ºF for today’s low. Perfect weather to walk the dog before the ticks get active. The Tom’s were gobbling real early this AM. A clear and sunny 45ºF presently, and I anticipate similar conditions and an afternoon high temperature in the mid to hopefully upper 50º’s. The NWS is maintaining its Elevated Fire Risk SWS. Still wet around here as I slogged around my lower field. Another beautiful to enjoy and appreciate the outdoors. I see a lot of rain and maybe some mixed precipitation for most of this week, but the weekend looks good weather-wise.

Looking at my coffee supply early this AM resulted in an Amazon order. Prices were better (so far) than what I would pay for locally and that’s not even taking into the equation of gas $, time (which I waste on principle), and exposure to C-19. So far there is no evidence of a panic buy for coffee (yet) on the internet.

I could not renew my truck’s registration online today, but I do have an extension until 6.30th due the MA response to C-19. Why I could not renew online is strange.???

BEF- My + thoughts, wishes, and prayers for your Sister and BIL

Bruce- No way that Department Head would dirty her nails. She did however avoid me the rest of the time she was employed there which was in itself much appreciated.

Eric- Thanks for the pics and Jim for the laughs.

Mike- My special + thoughts, wishes, and prayers for you, your Daughter and every other individual who despite the risk do their job.

Bill- I hope the CT scan determines the cause of the anemia. My + thoughts, wishes, and prayers for your Daughter.

Billy- I wish your Son’s Wife a Happy Birthday and I hope that she has many more in health and happiness.

Thomas- I have been hearing them around here as well. I had some rather loud Raven territorial battles here the past few days. What I believe to be our resident 3 have been successful so far; no missing primaries.

I saw something on the news last night about a pink moon this month, but I've forgotten why they called it pink. It wasn't for the color though, but doesn't seem like anybody told your moon that.
