Good morning!!!!

[RedNeckGeek]

Good Morning! 41F @ 7:15AM. Rain and snow showers this morning changing to mainly rain showers for the afternoon. Thunder possible. High 42F. Winds SSW at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 60%.

Should feel lucky to have low 40s temperature wise, especially with our northern tier of TBNers dealing with sub zeros, but it's not often I get snow in the forecast and the gray skies look the part. Brrrr!

Clever use of the magnets, Eric. I suppose if the sheet metal gets hot enough to compromise the magnetism you've got bigger problems than wobbly metal.:laughing:

Sometimes, CR, just when ya feel like you're pulling even, it's your turn in the trick barrel again. Things'll work out with a little perseverance. Long as the money and the wife's patience hold out, you'll come out fine.:thumbsup:

Had NAS drives all installed before breakfast, but moving the data from the backups took a looooooooong time. The media server for the video stores all the cover art and show descriptions, which were downloaded from the net, in some directory deep in the bowels of the file system that aren't part of the media directories that were being backed up, so the server is currently burning up the Interwaves downloading it all again. Try as I might, though, I'm having trouble using all of the new 100Gb/month data cap; it almost seems like the old satellite provider was overcounting the data use. That would be almost impossible to prove though.

Hope everyone enjoys a warm and restful Sunday!

Eric, looks good to me. Good thing its not what us yanks call grade 316 stainless (non magnetic). That fire looks warm and inviting.

Cajun, hope you get your equipment back in order.

RNG, I've been worried about the guy's lack of progress. I'm sure you will figure something out.

We got some more rain this morning. We can use it, although I won't be in the garden for almost a week now. Already have weeds coming up in it.

Got the fish tank cleaned yesterday. Calculated it is a 60 gallon. With all the thick glass, I'm guessing it is over 550 pounds filled.

Had my decaf, now time to get ready for church.

Have a blessed day all. Stay warm all of you up north.

Buppies, when is that second cold snap coming? We had 18° this morning,low 40's later, warming up tomorrow. Mom who is almost 94, decided she wanted to go out to breakfast today, so I went over 3-4 good breakfast places, she says, "Let's go to Bob Evans!" Oh well, I tried.

Take puppy into vet this am for next series of shots.

Be safe
Have a great day

Is land in your neck of the woods as expensive as it is in ours?

Depends on what you buy and where. Land can be had here for $1,000-3,000/acre. In large tracks. Think farm size. Land in town $50,000-100,000+ per acre.

 

[toppop52]

I paid $45,000 an acre 5 1/2 years ago, but is valued at near $60,000 now.

There's a country song in there somewhere....��

There is..
If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all

Good morning! light rain for the 2nd day, 56˚. I have a job this week to fix that old antique church organ. Some keys are sticking. I'm thinking I can fix that, it just needs duct tape and rubber bands.

Cajun, good thing bad things only come in threes, you are in the clear now!

Farmer, It looks like your wife is giving you small steps at a time so you won't be overwhelmed, good thinking on her part.

About one inch of snow that is melting fast. See the herring fleet is off shore, should be fishing for about one week. Going to go around the corner and see if I can get a picture of a fishing boat and Chrome lighthouse in the background.

Yeah. It had better have had 42-43,000 worth of timber on it. . What I buy will have to cash flow. $700 calves and $3.75 corn means I can't pay war prices. It doesn't bother me to pay fair values though.
