Gas at Costco: $2.89/gal. Stations up the street: $3.28...... That's a big difference!

The temp only got up to 46°, then the clouds moved in and the temp dropped quick. The weather guessers now upped tonights snow amount here to 4-6".

Tractor all set to go if needed. Hopefully not.....

43°F and cloudy this morning, got up to 66° today. More weather moving in Thursday night and Friday, may end as snow. Looks like we may be in the low 70s on Monday.

Discovered yesterday that the wind from a storm a couple days ago damaged the barn. It has dual sliding doors, but the one on the right has never been used. It's just been held in place by a couple of obviously-too-small L-brackets mounted to the poles and the door. No longer. The wind swung it out at the bottom, and newly rearranged dirt, courtesy of our mole population, wouldn't let it swing back into place. A few minutes of grunting with a large pry bar fixed that. I reattached the diminutive brackets to hold it until I can get to a store to some get more appropriate sized brackets. Going to have to spend some time prying and beating the two doors back into alignment too so it will close completely, as well as putting some screws where there formerly were nails holding the corrugated sheet metal to the wood frames in several places. Not going to happen until this weekend, though. Not enough daylight left yet when I get home from work on weekdays.

I have a bunch more catching up to do here. You guys are, as always, prolific.

Hope everyone is well.

Good evening, gents.

Cold cold wind. Coldest winter in Southern Cal in 17 yrs.
My bones verify that! Next 2 days warmer and no rain for a darn change.
Snow closures just 20 miles from the house. None here but that is where the ascent begins up the 11k peak San Jacinto. Great road for sportscars... waiting for spring for that fun... right now you all have a great night - I'm going to make a fire in the place and watch a little TV

Good morning from Central Texas. 71 degrees, T-storms to my SW. They say chance of severe later. Who knows, but we can use some rainfall!
Fertilizer prices have come down. Unfortunately, I was one of the last to pay attention and the (2) local suppliers are out already! :confused: It is a bit early maybe to consider, but as warm as it has been... maybe not.

The B52 Stratofortress, introduced 70 years ago! Remarkable. Think we got our money's worth on this design.

Hope all had a great day. Look upward and remember who is in charge. Take Care to all

Drinking first cup of coffee. 28° with partly cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 40” with mostly cloudy skies. Got grocery shopping done. Made a visit to Comcast store. Took over an hour to get me access to my account. Had to dump double I’d check to get into it. Not much else got done. Sure hope the Comcast tech gets internet hooked up today.

Everyone stay well and safe.

Good Morning All.

good morning all
42 going up to 59 today with rain this morning
lunch plans with a fellow school board member, I liked the Irish place last week enough we are going there for lunch.
Two blocks from friends house, he lives "downtown". We had a very good school board meeting last night, got done early, always good.

I'm leaving the 19th of this month and getting back about two weeks later.
and for a tease....early ideas on heading West trip. Next year. Will take a lot of planning, which is fun. Very unfinished map.
Did make plans to go to Cedarville MI over July 4th holiday, visit my brother's family vacation home there at very top of UP.
Will be visiting with Ron, RS and ? Am stopping in Lancaster on way home to have dinner with very old friends there.

up too early, hope it's a nap day later
