41 right now...high about 60 and clear. All the snow from yesterday is, of course, gone

 

[Looking4new]

36 °F and going to a high of 61. Wind SW 3 mph. 60% chance of showers. Risk of a T-storm this afternoon.

We still have some snow in the ditches, but you have to look close to see it.

The Jeep will be leaving for Timmins either today or tomorrow.. I've been issued a challenge; back my Jeep AND M101CDN2 (M416 in U.S. Army talk) onto to an elevated trailer. That will be interesting. That way the guy hauling it will be able to just drive it off.

I am going to take today as it comes. Don't know what I will be up to.


Have a good day all

weather station looking for something to report, now it's a May Noreaster...at least we aren't getting strafed and bombed.
Right now we need rain, bring it on.

A surprisingly cool 50 this morning, only getting up into low 70's. Who left that Canadian door open?

Harv, great info on skid loader, thank you. The ability to do everything right out in front of you seems marvelous, like digging holes for trees in my situation.

Local Kubota dealer, who I think is going to fail shortly, loaded their lot with Takeuchi machines. Seems to be the hot ticket. They don't know how to fix what they have, good luck with another product line.

Carpet cleaner, a near neighbor which is nice, coming this morning to pick up all my area rugs and take them back to his barn for cleaning.
Then he will come on Friday to clean all my carpeting. Been five years, no kids no pets, but I track a lot of dirt in no matter how hard I try.
It's a steamer truck, going to ask for a second clean rinse to make sure all detergent is out.
Boy do I have a pickup job before they come.

got nail out of truck tire yesterday, charged me eleven bucks, such a deal.
guy said I had another 5k on my front tires, only at 25 now, for top of line Michelins. Now I did pull a big rv with these
tires and they aren't E rated so maybe i just used them up. 235 bucks a piece...

and for you Northern tire guys:
From what I read, this is the newest hot performer at a good price but won't fit my truck:
Vredstein has always made cutting edge snow tires, apparently they scored a hit on this passenger tire.

Sodamo, I think I can, I think I can, I think I can, I will! one way or the other...

Drinking first cup of coffee. 39° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 71° with lots of sun. Sold core aerator yesterday. This cleared up storage areas in barn and lean too. Take wife for Dr visit this morning. Then home to get started on weed kill patrol. Lots of weeds growing where they have never grown before.

Sandhill Cranes have not been at my place lately. Because they are making more little ones at local park. One of the Cranes has adopted a Canada Goose. Here is a link to the story in one of our news papers.


Glad Harvey posted some of his info on Skid Steer. Like the storm shelter pictures.

Looking, Jeep to Timmins?

Don, how would anyone know that you are coasting? :confused3:

Mostly, glad you got some Boat Seat Time.

Good Morning All.

I want to find a comfy seat on Mostly's boat and let him drive me around, look at houses on the water.
Great fun to peer in people's back yards, see what they have going on. Sometimes the landscaping down to the water
can be really beautiful. Do we have a fish count yet? How big was the one that got away...
Keep those water pics coming please

I miss boating a lot, but not enough to buy another one at this stage. I do love it though.

46 going to 71 today, cool snap over.

Good days and prayers.

The latest pottery shard I found by an old fire pit near the dried creek bed. It was about 2’ down.

Don, how would anyone know that you are coasting? :confused3:

The word "Coasting" appears between the speedometer and the tac. Also the RPMs drop to a idle 750 RPM.

I just found out there is an elontronic way to adjust the tone of the muffler somewhere. The hunt is on.

Drew, My pickup Michelin tires never last more than 30K miles even though they are rated for 70K miles. However their guarantee is prorated and my new tires are always between $70-$120 off each.


Good morning! 60˚F clear skies heading to the 80s.

Finishing wood working class went well. A expert wood worker showed us his secretes. I have 4 more classes scheduled the next two weeks on different things. There are 23 classes given every 6 months.
The class tonight is on the scroll saw. My wife counts fingers when I leave and come back to make sure I don't leave any behind.
