33 degrees right now and the rain has stopped, lost some snow last night for sure. Think the high is only going to be what it is right now, time will tell.
Heading out for a few customer visits today and tomorrow so we get a chance to spend some of that $3.76 a gallon gasoline.

28 and partly cloudy, headed to 41 or 42.

It is nice when the mud in my trucks parking spot freezes so I can make less of a mess when I leave.
Widening the gravel drive at the carport is a MUST DO project this summer...

The fence lumber arrived yesterday, but this Saturday a very good friend is moving his huge family (4 of his own, plus 5 adopted special needs kids) to a 10 acre ranch with a beautiful barn. I'll be helping them.

Be well all,
David

Roy...I assume your waste disposal system uses 3" PVC pipe, and I have never seen a line to a septic tank that curved after exiting the house so there is an excellent chance yours also runs straight. That will give you some idea of where it is located. Now, there is obviously a cleanout plug located in the PVC pipe just before it exits through the foundation, all you need to do is run a 100' (hopefully long enough) fish tape through the opening until it hits the inside of the tank, and when you pull it back (using good sanitary practices of course) you can measure the length of the tape and that will give you an idea of how far from the house the tank is.
You will never find my septic tank looking straight out from where it leaves house. It is 45 degrees from leaving house and 75' out.

Got first cup of coffee poured. 68 degrees with clouds this morning. Heading to 84 with clouds giving way to sun and a very brisk wind. Off to the local flea market this morning. Great place to buy fresh fruits and vegetables.
Good Morning All.

Good morning! It's 15˚ with flurries and a high of 24˚. Big decision for the day is whether to stay inside and do some painting or go out and burn some brush piles. Hmm, I hate painting. Have a good one.

It's showering on/off today at 39 F. We've had about .4" so far and much more later today with a heavy storm moving across tonight. I'm hoping my pond levels rise a bit.

I don't drive my diesel pickup all that much and I'm sure glad I don't. Yesterday, I put 20 gallons of fuel in the truck at Walmart using a cash card for the discount. It was still $3.969 a gallon. I saw $4+ diesel all over the place and regular as high as $3.899. I sure am glad to be retired and not driving 150 miles per day commuting to work.

16 here, a high of 25 expected. This winter is a lot stiffer than the last few. I know a few folks thinking of moving to Florida!!

Frosty start to the day, cloudy with showers in the forecast so they could be on the white side. High of 6C/43F.
Doing the normal chores today plus the wife and I will clean out our small chicken coop. The girls in this one are getting moved to the big coop so will have 92 sharing the chicken palace.

64F this AM
another 2.04 in rain since midnight (my gauge resets at midnight)
I'm a tad concerned about picking up my pegboard from HD this afternoon. May have to try tarping it, would hate to get it wet and ruined.
Have a great day.

Poor guy. I paid $4.4136 for red diesel last trip in Jan. So glad I sold my diesel pickup,but I still get 20-40 gallons/month for my generator and tractor.

Think I paid 4.26 for E10 gas yesterday.

Would you like a change to windy and cold, which we have here right now? Have spent much of today cleaning up my basement workshop, I tend to complete a half dozen projects or more at one time and just throw stuff around instead of putting things away (tools, materials, hardware, etc) and then I devote a day to putting everything back where it belongs. Now I can clutter it up again....

David, SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED....oh come on now, isn't assembly part of the deal when you buy that much material?

Actually the building it is the FUN part...

It is the paying for it that stinks in my book...
