First and second week of Feburary time frame. Pieces of polar vortex will break off sending cold air down into Texas and the eastern seaboard. May be some moderation in between but it will be cold and energy coming from the west will tap gulf moisture producing precipitation. Drew should again be in the cross hairs literally. There are signs cold will last entire month of February. I also believe you will get some of the frozen stuff again

Groan ......

Good evening all. 36F this morning, clear and calm. High temp 64F, moderate but gusty wind and sky partly cloudy. Made it to dentist this morning, ran errands while in town. Replaced lights in one of the garage fixtures, no light, but will flicker occasionally. Will try some diagnostics before replacing anything else.

Raleigh RV show is next week, and mine has cherry wood finish

So what's to stop you from driving down to Raleigh next week and parking your trailer out in the parking lot with big "FOR SALE" signs all over it? Pick up a dozen donuts on the way over and have a big thermos of coffee and some styrofoam cups, give 'em away to anyone that comes by, and I bet you get it sold before noon...

Good morning. Weather maps show high pressure hovering over us today to keep the rain at bay. May only last 1 day so I better get on and make the most of it.
3C/37F and steadily rising.

Did anyone notice the gun manufacturer Weatherby is moving to Wyoming?

Bups, the move must be a blow for many of those working at Weatherby, although good to hear the company is still thriving. When I was young I only saw their "Weatherby Magnum" big game rifles in print. Nowadays the Vanguard range of rifles are available here too at very modest prices. IIRC the barrels and possibly the action are currently made for them in Japan by Howa and are well regarded.

6 degrees right now....cold, but beats those minus double digit mornings. High will be in the mid to upper 20's.

Groan ......

Triple groan. I am not gluing hair back on my face!!

Colder than expected 22 degrees out. But warming up nicely into 50's, low 60's tomorrow. Then bottom seems to fall out.
So I have two days to get some things done outside before the weather quits cooperating.

Good morning all.

Good morning all, 22 this morning heading to 54 and sunny, rain this weekend. Went out to the shop to finish working on flattening the block plane soul and ended up working on a dove tail guide fro the few min. that I had. Wife is starting to feel lousy. Tummy feels bad, slept a good bit during the day. No fever so that is a plus.

Thanks for the ensure idea guys, will ask the Doc when we talk.

Prayers for the long list. Ed

6F quite upper 20's for high.

Friday :dance1: follow by mini warm weekend,looks like mix bag of weather will stay south. :)

Enjoy the day all.

Good morning! 49˚ heading to the mid 60's, cloudy SE wind. Looks like I'm going to have to head South according to Buppies weather forecast. After that last 13˚ morning a few weeks ago my windshield washer quite spraying correctly on the subaru. Time to find out what the problem is. Got the spiders out of the Acurite weather station, maybe now the solar circulation fan will work and my daytime temps, when it's sunny, will not reach 80˚.

16 with a high of 34. Wind SE 7 mph. 40% chance of flurries.
We got an inch of snow overnight.

I gotta go to the shop today and get a load test done on my battery and check over the complete starting system. Two days ago even with the Jeep plugged in (block temp 87F) it was very slow to turn over. Yesterday it was slower (block temp 85F), so it is going in today, either under its' own steam or on a hook.

That is it for today, I'll let you all know how much today co$t me and what was wrong with it,

Have a safe day all

My wife has been asked to take some kind of protein drink like Ensure. Problem, 2 a day keeps her full so she does not want to eat enough table food. Started taking Boost and Premier Protein. The amount of protein in a Boost is double Ensure. Premier is almost double Boost. Wife has become a smoothie junkie. She uses her Ninja blender to make up drinks that fit her taste. She found some oversized straws to make it easier to drink them. She has a hard time swallowing. Found the best places to buy the drinks is Costco and Sams Club.

23 and clear going to 54.

Buppies, send some of that snow over here. We'll take Texas' and Drew's share. Haven't had one here deep enough to snow shoe in for a couple of years.

Drew, bummer how the deal went.

Need to get the tractor warmed up in a little while and move a pallet of firewood up to the porch before the sun thaws the soil/grass. Then need to cut some more...burned more this year at this point than ever. I empty my ashes each day, too, but dump them in a shallow pit rather than the driveway, later to move them with the FEL. My pit is full, and rises up from the ground like a mini volcano. Have had the grapple on, not the bucket, all winter so haven't cleaned it out.

Ed, are you getting a lot of wind? I was planning to go hiking on the mountain above you yesterday morning, but the forecast was for 30 mph winds all day, and under 20 degrees, so decided to go to the gym instead. Also gave me an excuse to get some turkey chili and Fuji salad at Panera's while my wife is out of town. Very tasty, but very expensive.

Don, what's it like driving around Austin now? Pix I've seen makes it looks like it has boomed into a very big city. My wife and I have wanted to go and hear some good music, like the Derailers.

I got a couple of my tax dilemmas solved with some good help from a TBN member, but still working on one.

Drinking first cup of coffee. 22° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 49° with mostly sunny skies. Today will be recovery day from yesterday's toilet project. While it is not hard to replace the wax seal. Getting the bolts that hold toilet down out, was a pain. It had been there for 30 years. Bought when 3 gallon toilets were still available. Put back with all brass and SS fittings.
Buppies, good luck buying a RV. :D We enjoyed ours. Would do it again if I was younger. Looks like we are going to get some cold weather next month. But not much moisture.
Prayers for all those in need.
Good Morning All.

Don, what's it like driving around Austin now?
one.

I’m only in Austin once a month but they have too many toll roads. Both 290 and 71 coming in from the east near Austin turn to toll. 35 is always crowded.

that's a good idea, but it's likely three hours away by rv, and I've never been to Raleigh, other than the airport.
RV dealers had one of their biggest, if not the biggest, years last year. They are all tired, service depts. backed up, and my timing with local guys
right before a show wasn't good. They want to sell their new ones, not my used one. So the ad went into rvt.com last night. Only negative is travel trailer hogs up my parking lot.
