Morning all!
34 with rain and snow for the day.
Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate!
We spent the day getting everything ready. All that's left is stuffing the bird and putting it in the oven. Usual riff raff will be coming here around 1 am.
Did a bunch of rearranging in the shop this week. Trying to make it easier to keep clean and to find stuff. Also need to make more room for a bigger lathe I have coming.
Working on another paying job. Getting a few prototypes made up to see if one gets picked.
This years table center piece I made is a mini cookie jar. I will be gifting it to my sister in law who collects them. Will attach pic.
Hope everyone enjoys the holiday and stays safe and healthy!

Well it is morning,
Spent much of yesterday prepping for today, two of my daughters came to help prep for today.
One spent the night it's getting close to time to put the turkey and then the ham on. Weather guessers are not giving us a nice forecast for travel in the area; this is the nicest of the 3 I checked this morning.

This is the one that is usually the least inaccurate and it doesn't look nice at all, plus we are at 30F at this time compared to their reading of 34F. We shall see what happens.

Wishing a good Thanksgiving and not too much of a gain on the waist line today.

Stay safe and enjoy

Noticed the other forecast wasn't showing up :)

Happy Thanksgiving! So much to be thankful for this year.

50 and rain, going to 63.

Kyle, nice score on the boat...sounds like a fun project for you, and maybe your son and daughter.

I'm right there with you guys on the smoke alarms...always at night. Most of ours are on a breaker, and battery backup. Took me a few tries to learn how to reset them when they beep due to low battery...I try to replace the batteries on the solstices, so minimize the dreaded 2am beep.

Don, sorry about Hospice...long life.

Our youngest son and wife from NY arrived about 4am this morning and brought their cat. Will be a first for Della. We're going over to my oldest son and wife's for Thanksgiving meal...first time we get out of the cooking duties.

Yesterday, mowed and mulched leaves with the mower for what should be the final time this year. Used the tractor to bring in a load of firewood...not the final time this year. 😁

Enjoy your day!

Happy thanksgiving 🦃
It’s 30F, and snowing here. Supposed to snow till 9:00 pm tonight. They’re predicting 8” of snow. I don’t have the snowblower even mounted on the tractor yet. Guess I’ll be working on that this morning

Good Morning,
Ct,38 to start going to 48 ! Raining lightly now, sounds like an all day event !
Vermont forecast looks like snow !

Don so sorry to hear about Hospice ! Prayers sent ! 🙏

Buppies, sorry to hear whole family not together for Thanksgiving! 🙏

Today we will go to our youngest sons house along with the rest of the family. His house is much larger than ours, and they are much younger , but we are making 2 side dishes and we bought the 2 Turkeys so I guess we are covered ! 😉

Good Morning and Happy Thanksgiving
It’s 39° and raining, forecast to continue throughout most of the day. High in the upper 40’s, partial clearing later this afternoon.

Yesterday’s trip consumed most of the day. ATC gave us a couple hundred bonus miles, routed us over Maine on our way from Pittsburgh to Martha’s Vineyard. From there, down the coast past Provincetown, and then back west to the island.

When I did get home, son helped me move a love seat from the house to the old folks home, so the wife and I can sit by the fire. We are still figuring out how to layout the furniture, and what we should bring, and what gets left behind. There is a sofa that is not near the fireplace, and a recliner that I would put in front of it. But the days of both of us in the recliner are long behind us.

BIL is on his way here to get some split bolt connectors to connect a new cooktop that he want to use for today’s meal. He’s a procrastinator, and didn’t consider all the home centers and supply houses would be closed today. It’s about a 45 minute drive for him to get here.

47 outside this AM, grey and drizzling. Heading to upper 50's.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Moved a rug from my parents house into the Milk House yesterday late. Those concrete floors are cold. I need a long talk with the Project Manager since furniture was already in there. LOL. I also need to get busy with painting the bathroom this AM. Again. Wall work around the doors, trim and ceiling are the reason. It's close to the end state. Although I noted one tile in the bathroom is looking pretty bad, so that is on the replacement list. Looks like I missed the line cutting with the angle grinder. Got the kitchen custom tabletop tile cut yesterday. Also picked up another piece of granite, locally for a custom table. Should be ready by Monday. Yesterday was pretty busy.

We have 2 out of 3 daughters here today. Picked up a chicken yesterday and a tiny ham. It will not be a big prep or big deal since we got together last week.

My in-laws place is finally on the market. I would have asked a lot, lot more, but some in the family have no sense of what stuff is worth now-a-days. Scary. At this rate the in-laws place will be closed out before my Dads estate is closed. Thank the government for that stupidity.

Time to get moving....be safe as always.

Snowing and the snow line moving down the mountain, the top of the mountain is just out of the top of the picture, the snow sticking to the tress is almost here, sticking on the lawn now and slush on the driveway.
