Good morning!!!!

[riptides]

34 and I don't know what it is doing outside because it's all glazed over. SO I will stay in and feed the wood stove. Until it gets light out anyway.

Just a yucky day shaping up.

Speaking of tree limbs, up the road from me, about a year or two ago, guy was on his Kubota and got crushed by a pine. The energy release of a falling tree is something to respect, for sure.

Hope all have a great day. Be safe and stay healthy my friends.

looks like forecast has now changed to mostly rain and staying above freezing overnight.

year before last I planted potatoes on March 1st in NC. Need to find out what that date is here.
Ground temp thermometer needed. Want to plant potatoes in my raised garden. The rest of veggies will be what the local garden
centers have. Middle of April likely.

Good morning all, a couple of degrees below freezing here, shallow ponds have ice thick enough to take my weight. Rain is on the way, we should soon get thawed out.

Yesterday afternoon was vaccination day - for sheep. The pens and race where this would normally be done have been under water for quite a while. With lambing time coming up in March it couldn't be put off any longer, so we did our best using a temporary arrangement of gates and hurdles. Slow going, but all done. My friend who did the stabbing is pretty good with a needle and syringe, he is able to inject even the most stubborn animals.

I do not know of anyone locally who would not willingly be vaccinated against Covid, but if vaccination ever became compulsory, the health authority would do well to employ a few farmers like him to stab anyone who was reluctant. One look at a cattle crush would soon have most rolling up their sleeves to cooperate.

E Muffin appeared in fridge

Bups, you saw a Ghost Muffin ?

Light drizzle and just above freezing, steps are glazed over.

Good morning! 32 now, predicted to get to 41. Real light mist now. Had some flurries and rain, but overall, the 都torm wasn稚 much here.

Got some work type stuff to do today, then not sure what trouble I can find to get into.

Everyone stay safe out there

5.89 inches rain and most of current storm has passed.

.

Good thing that wasn’t snow.

We ended up with maybe an inch based upon early exploration by my wife, I can’t tell from under the quilt.

 

[Thomas]

14F cloudy 30 for high 3-5 inches snow over night.

Outside chores done toast time.

Fellows fellows with all this E muffin talk your messing with my emotions :confused2: like dog waiting for bone with meat :licking:

Enjoy the day all.

Now that Thomas has released the emuffin supply, they are appearing everywhere.

Good Morning
31 and a forecast high of 35. Not sure what form the precip will be, forecasts vary, either snow, wet snow, wintery mix or rain.

Yesterday was the day to move the trailer, worked out great, I was able to move it to the Bilco door so daughter could load it, before pulling it around to pavement.

Got to the lumberyard and picked up some Baltic Birch. For some reason it comes in 5x5 sheets, which are a pain to wrestle and don’t fit in the panel saw. It’s cut up now and speaker is partially glued up, I’ll make more progress today. I figured I’d skip the pictures, as I posed the blow by blow on the last one.

While glue was curing went bearing shop for some bronze bar stock to make some bushings for another project.

Played ping pong with oldest son, I lost like 5 games in a row, several after being stalled at deuce for 10 or more service changes. But close or not, I lost them all

No word on vaccination.

Well morning all,
hope everyone has a good day regardless of the weather.
No E muffin for me this morning, but I did have a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese.
Had to choose from the bag of bagels or E muffin my wife had bought.
Time for me to get moving and some outside chores done and the back blade on the tractor,
seeing as they are talking 2-6" this afternoon and tonight.
Then my new refrigerator is supposed to be delivered Wednesday afternoon may have to use my pickup
to get it from the road to the house, that will be fun.
