Good morning!!!!

Everybody around here in NE WA state seems to be getting the Moderna shots. Both of the shots were basically nothing. The second one got a small red dot, itched for a day, went away.

HOWEVER - the first shot, about seven weeks ago, was the highlight of my week. The Dr administering the shot was the cutest brunette I've seen in a long time. She wasn't around for shot #2.

Good Morning
It’s 29 with a high of 63 coming this afternoon.
Clear skies and gentle winds.

Yesterday was pretty productive in the shop, wood work is done on two speakers, as well as the crossovers. Have to finish the input/control plates and wire them to the crossover, then start applying the finish.

Tomorrow, it looks like I’ve got to go to Ft Myers to pick up my partner and take him to Washington, Pa. that will pretty much kill the day.

PJ, pretty scary looking picture

Morning all, sun is out.
Saw the red tail yesterday. Amazing how quiet it get here when one of them is around.
First frog has appeared and some of the daffodils are starting to open!

Vinca and buttercups are starting to flower too.

Spring here, feeling a little better.

Stay safe and be well.

Good morning! 60˚F heading to the mid 70s, cloudy. FireWise this morning. We have a half mile to clear along the creek, should be fun about 15 volunteers have been showing up so we move pretty fast.

Good Morning!!!! 55F @ 5:30AM. Sunny. High 79F. Winds N at 10 to 20 mph.
Yesterday's high wind has been delayed until today; we only saw 12 MPH. The new prediction doesn't exactly seem high at 20MPH, but what do I know? Still only showing 0.1" of rain in the WU 10-day, but the weather guy on the TV last night was more optimistic.

Lots of seat time yesterday gathering firewood. All from standing dead trees, was able to just push most of them over with the FEL, which also pulled the root ball. Ran into one triple trunked oak that was a little more stubborn; I didn't notice at first that one of the trunks still showed some life. Hooked a couple log chains together and pilled off the box blade and one trunk snapped off, used a chain saw to partially cut the next two, keeping them from falling in the wrong direction. Today I'll try to get a downed tree sitting about 50' down a steep hillside. I think I have enough chain, but maybe I'll try out the winch. I'm a little bit afraid of a snapped cable, so I'll throw a tarp over the line just in case.

Visited with my bulldozer neighbor and his wife yesterday, getting a tour of the progress they're making on their house remodel. All new stucco on the outside, all new drywall on the inside, new floors, new windows, a huge amount of work. You wouldn't recognize the place, and it's all beautiful. What a change from the drug den the place used to be before they bought it.

Has anyone scored a J&J shot?

Here in PA I think they are giving the J&J to the teachers. They are probably happy to get their shot sooner and it probably saves the vaccination centers from having to deal with people who would rather have the good stuff.

Yes, Teachers and support staff getting J&J. That;s what my wife got earlier in the week.
She seems fine so far, just a little tired.

50°F and clear skies this morning, going up to 72° today. Looks like we drop into the upper 20s Wednesday and Thursday nights, then back up in the 70s by the weekend. Maybe winter's last hurrah?

The Wife got a call yesterday from a guy claiming to be from the FBI investigating 18 newly opened accounts in her name, and talking about prison time for fraud. She said he came across as quite believable right up to the point where he mutilated the pronunciation of "February." She made him repeat it three times before she finally figured out what he was trying to say. Then she started making fun of him, which apparently angered him. He yelled at her to stop interrupting him, so she said OK, and hung up on him. He tried calling back 14 more times, then finally sent her a text message that read "F*** you!" Nice try, Bozo.

Our broody hen bit me last night when I went out and moved her to check for eggs. It actually broke the skin on my knuckle. Wife and I were just talking last week about how thin the skin on our hands has gotten already.
