Good morning folks

29 now highs around 65 and sunny with light winds today.

Wife and I and the dog took a ride to the coast yesterday and had lunch. Not a cloud in the sky, the breeze was a bit chilly but the sun made up for it, a very pleasant day.

The yard is still to squishy for any cleanup, a few more sunny days should fix that. I’m anxious to do something with the yard and gardens.

Not much planned for today may take another ride or just enjoy the warm weather and putter around.

Prayers for our country, I hope all this craziness stops
Stay safe and healthy
Enjoy your day everyone

Good morning, 42°F and going up to 61. Wind calm. 30% chance of showers.

The shopping trip was a bust. The price on a 20' C-can delivered works out to almost $4,ooo.oo For that price I will pick up another portable shelter and a couple of extra roof covers and I will still be money ahead.

I may try to get the BH out of the snow today and get it on the tractor. Don't hold your breath though, but it must be soon as I have a grave to dig before the ground is thawed out.


Stay safe all

Good Morning
It’s 35 on its way to 65 today. Clear and calm,clouding up later with rain overnight.

Yesterday was a wonderful sunny day. Didn’t get much done in the shop, but daughter and grandson came to visit, got to BJ’s and picked up some nice pork shoulders for the smoker, along with some other stuff, including Rainex wiper blades for less than half what I paid at the auto parts store last week.

Then my friend came over and we played music for about 3 hours.I think we played everything from Bob Wills to John Fogerty to George Gershwin, with visits to Merle Haggard and Doug Sahm and some of his own original’s along the way. I sure hope that he keeps up his weekly visits, as I’m having a ball.

After that I did putter around in the shop, laying out some Baltic Birch that I’m going to cut up this morning.

Today I’m going to cut up the aforementioned wood and then go get a vaccination!

It’s been a while in getting an appointment, our state (PA) and county (Bucks) have not been the most proactive about getting the vaccine out there. Not sure where the reason is, but the rate of distribution seems to be increasing, so my guess is that it’s a supply issue. Many of the more rural counties have done much better, and had I been willing to travel, I could have gotten an appointment sooner.

Good Morning!!!! 49F @ 5:15AM. Sunny. High 68F. Winds N at 10 to 15 mph.
No rain in the 10-day. Paging David and the Pineapple Express!
High wind advisory for today. Hope it's nowhere near what you saw yesterday, Don. That must have been scary!

California hasn't been very good about getting the vaccine out either, Paul. I'm headed to the county fairgrounds for a shot this morning, but none of the maps I've found show the building I'm supposed to go to. I take some comfort knowing I'm not the only person that's confused, and that there's sure to be a line...

A long time ago I had a half barrel planter like that, Drew, with a lime tree in it. I put it on one of those Harbor Freight furniture dollies so I could wheel it into the garage when frost was forecast. Back then the dolly only cost five bucks, and now I see they're going for three times that!

Sorry the shipping container prices weren't better, Bill. I wonder if it has anything to do with CV19 slowing down freight between here and China, making the containers less available?

Too much bad medical news this morning! Hope you all get fixed up sooner rather than later...

Yesterday I finally heard back from the building department on what hoops I need to jump through to get a new water tank permitted. Couldn't have taken more than a few minutes to put together the reply, but I've been waiting since last Thursday. It was a rainy day then, and now it seems a shame to waste good weather filling out paperwork.

Lots of wildlife in the wood I bucked and split yesterday, ranging in size from termites not much bigger than the commas on this page, to a grub as big as my middle finger. Seems like half of what I split ended up in the junk pile, it was so badly infested. This was the first real use the new-to-me Stihl 261 has seen, and it took more yanks on the cord to get it going the first time than I'd have liked. Ran great for a while, then it decided it needed a break and wouldn't idle. Had lunch, then fiddled with the idle setting enough to keep it running, so maybe it's just getting broken in? It's a heavy son-of-a-gun, and my back and arms are sure feeling it this morning. Makes me appreciate the little Makita more than ever, but the Makita wouldn't have been able to get through some of the rounds the Stihl made short work of yesterday. All that fooling around meant I only filled up the rest of that first pallet before quittin' time rolled around. If the rest of the trees out there are the same as what I found yesterday, maybe I should just save myself the trouble and feed 'em to the burn pile.

Also heard back from my buddy about his move to Klamath Falls. It seems he had some trailer problems, in that he couldn't get one as big as he'd have liked, and the U-Haul he did get had a couple bad tires he had to replace out of his own pocket. As a result he had to leave some stuff behind, so if any of you want some old BMW motorcycle parts, I know where there's a pile of 'em free for the asking...
