My boys made it back to school in AR. Now to buy the spring break tickets. Oldest has 2 semesters left.

Did some retirement reading today. I worked 20 yrs for my first company, and get a pension at 60. If i can get rehired, and then directly retire, i can carry their health insurance in retirement. My objective now is to get rehired there before 60. Hope they have some jobs available.

enjoyed watching a family of river otters......now having some hot coffee.

Do they take cream and sugar JerryBob? Probably the young otters shouldn't have too much coffee.
Wingspread I'm sure has some coffee recommendations for otters.

been a quiet afternoon. I can only stare at tiny onion seedlings so long. They just don't grow fast enough to be entertaining.
Although the amaryllis is growing almost an inch a day.

6 inches of snow here and record low temps. Most of County offices including Court closed again tomorrow.

You should see their donuts!:thumbsup:

Made it to 32 today. Cold front is just now coming through and already 20 headed to 9.

Got birds taken care of and control rooms swept out and a little cleaning on them. Went and got allergy shots. Now looks like I’ve been stung by a wasp on both arms. Welps about a half dollar in size. Have gotten them since the first round.

Only snow flurries for us.


Evidently I typed this and never posted it on Wednesday.

14 this morning and currently 40 with light rain. Still under winter weather advisory for a half inch of snow/sleet and 1/10 an inch of freezing rain.

We’ll be thawing this week. Just hope roads hold up for birds to start leaving Thursday night.

The east coast is hogging all the snow and wife isn’t happy. No snow days.

Buckeye good news.

Good evening all. 50F this morning, heavy overcast and moderate south wind. It windier, rainier, and not much warmer, high was 56F. Not much on the agenda besides going to chapel.
Rip have a safe trip Monday!

Cold seat solution:
Comfy Covers Germ Resistant Toilet Seat Cover (Light Blue) - J Life Toilet Seat Covers - Amazon.com

My MIL, being Japanese, always had these in the winter. She saw that we did too when we lived in cold climates.

Another night without cloud cover has nicely sucked the heat out of the ground and turned it solid, so a good time to replenish the rapidly diminishing wood pile without sinking into mud.

Wng, Ron, thanks for the trail history info. It is strange seeing place names on that map that look so familiar to me, such as Middlesboro, Speedwell & Harrogate . I guess that's another area where the intrepid pioneers didn't care to use their imagination when it came to naming new settlements.

LFN, your SIL may know of the caves no far from Sheffield known as "Speedwell cavern". There are quite a few other places to see stalactites and stalagmites, however this one is memorable in that to get to them, you have to go deep underground and then travel through the old flooded lead workings in a small boat. As an added attraction for curious children, it also has a bottomless pit



Kyle, my time with valve amps ended over 40 years ago and that's one piece of history I am happy to leave to you enthusiasts like you to keep alive

Riptides, safe journey and then it's home sweet home.

Good morning all, 18 this morning headed to 35 with a wintry mix. Mom has a Dr. app today at 9:30 and the wintry mix is supposed to start at 10;00. Not sure what to do as if she has to walk farther than here at home she is in a wheel chair. Not sure what I will get in to today, time will tell.

Rip, Safe trip and wife's comfort prayers headed your way.

Randy, keep smiling Bro, still praying.

Still praying for others who have lost loved ones.

Praying for all of the colds and flu folks.

Have a great day. Ed
