34 out this AM. Today is firewood fetch day. Spent the day cutting wood and today is retrieval day. With over 75 fireplace length cuts, I'll be on the maul until March. LOL.

The insurance adjuster hit my number for the car. Well, nothing is under a grand these days. I had not realized the rear quarter is one piece up to moving up above the doors to the front hood. Basically your painting the whole side of the car for a bumper gash.

Have a great day all, be safe!

38 degrees going to 52 today. Not sure of plans today. Need to stay off my feet a bit to get rid of these night leg cramps.

bought 20 seven foot metal t posts, the heavy duty kind, to fence in the far side of my nut orchard area, and they were so heavy duty there was no way I could pound them in. Time to get the two firemen helpers; now I know why there is a machine that drives these things in...luckily the soil is sandy here with no rocks. The posts have a V section on one side and lots of little nubby bumps going up the other side, I assume to wrap fence wire around. Wasn't sure which direction went in or out. Never used one of these heavy duty varieties before, tops are white painted which is great for visibility. Have a problem with tenant farmer next door running over my line. These should stop that.

Need to pour first cup of coffee. 45° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 70° with lots of sun. Projects didn't get done yesterday. Stopped at AT&T store because wife's was giving her problems. Ended up replacing it with a iPhone 7. Got a iPad Pro 9.7 and a iPad min 2i. My head is running in circles getting the iPad's running. Off to my sisters today to pick oranges and use her high speed internet.
Buckeye, nice ride.
Drew, nubbed side goes toward fence. Did you get the wires for attaching fence to post?
Mostly, glad test went well.
Good Morning All.

Drew, have you tried potassium tablets for cramps?

T-post clips. Whatever rolled wire you select goes on side of the post with the nubs.

Why is Captain AMERICA, riding an MB? :thumbdown:

I did a 24 hour urine test once, the nurse came to pick it up, she said "Man, that's a lot of pee!"

Below freezing this morning, 47 later they say.

Ed, Ed wherever you are!

Possibly, but I'm refusing to answer on grounds it may tend to show the truth.

I was wishing for another frozen day, to let me drive easily over the top of soggy fields and muddy gateways. Well I got my wish, but nature slightly overdid things. A cold wind has been blowing here too and helped the frost penetrate deep last night. Now I'm struggling to find liquid style water for the sheep. Looks like once I have warmed up and had some breakfast, I will have to resort to bucketing water from inside the house. Less than a month now and I will be able to say goodbye to the ewes for a short while when they go away for lambing. Looking forward to a week of Sheepless in Seatle.

Your area is wonderful!
We spent a week, several years ago, in the Shropshire-Union canal system.
Picked up our boat (rental) at Wrenbury Mill.
Saw mostly cows, but.... perhaps some of your sheep too?
A great little trip for us old folk!

64°F and .14 inches rain since midnight.

Gonna Grill about 10lb rib roast and have some friends over for dinner this afternoon.

Be safe
Have a great day

oh yes, we'll all be there! :drink:

very successful drive to next town over. Stopped at Academy Sports and finally found some 22LR and priced reasonably too. That was the fifth time I had looked for it, striking out constantly. Walmart had none, TSC none, local downtown gun store, none
Then I went to Harbor Freight and found three good replacement tires and wheels for the old Gravely mower I am restoring and came home with a car full of solutions. That's what we call all that stuff in the cart, right?

You mean we can take a canal boat ride and go past Sir Eric's castle? Now perhaps the duke of his domain might favor us with a small wave.
I'd like to see the sheep do marching tricks like in Babe... now once around the pole for the bloody tourists girls...

Yes, if I still had my Hobie Cat, I'd sail right on over.

Ron, you bought out the Apple store. Might have to look up those. My kids broke our iPad minis charge port. I ordered the part and when dissassembling, the fpc connection port broke some tiny little contacts. Argh.

Good day all.
