When I grew up in northeastern NC and southeastern VA, in the 50s and 60s, there were a lot of red foxes as well as grays. Back then there were no coyotes in that area either. There were scattered packs of red wolves.

I would be afraid to put wheels all the way around. For the same reason as she does not like the walker with brakes. Will like it will get away from her. Buy the skids in bulk.

Rest in Peace
I just saw a set of those in a doctor's office recently and would have thought they'd go a long time.

Good Morning Everyone!!!!!
Temperature was 10ｺF earlier this AM; now 19ｺF; and I might see temperatures hovering ~30ｺF later today.
Randy- Gracie is a cutie. I have the same reaction 努atching football on TV.
Sigarms- Thanks for sharing your snow picture. Your school closings are legit with this weather system.
Eric- Thanks for the laugh and even better your tree cutting story. é„* proper adventure
Bill- Have fun with the tarts. The group box at the closest intersection a 1/4 mile away sustains vehicular damage on a regular basis; usually Friday night through Sunday morning. We prefer to have a PO box.
Thomas- Actually I was copying Gracie for most of that game. I wish that I had slept through the final 6 seconds. The NE may see a snow to mixed precip to mostly rain and back to snow again event this weekend. The weather models do not reflect the upper and lower jet streams phasing with this weekend system and do not agree on track yet. The pending midweek clipper system is moisture starved; the NE may see some scattered snow/snowshowers with that system.
Don- I致e never seen resistive rear wheels for walkers. I agree with RonJ about 4 wheels and walker control and buying skids/sleds in bulk.
Buppies and Billy- Have fun with your snow management. I always liked the first plowable snow event. Later in the snow season and much colder I find moving snow to be somewhat less enjoyable.
Bird- Those skids last a long time on rugs. They wear pretty quickly walking on sidewalks and pavement and many walker owner/operators really do not use their walkers properly as they tend to slide and not lift their walkers when walking.
I hope everyone is having a good start to the workweek.
My + thoughts, wishes, and prayers.

The low was 14° this morning. Yesterday wasn't to bad at all, sunny and in the low 40's. Warmer then they said it would be. Today should be in the high 30's and partly cloudy. The forecast still shows a change in the middle of the week.
One of the neighbors and I ordered manual windshield wipers for our side by sides a few weeks ago. They finally showed up this weekend. We plan on getting them put on today. I told him that I was going to let him be the first to drill a hole in his windshield. If we have any problems we can get it right the second time around. I'm not sure if he thinks that's a good idea.
Don't have much else going on today.
Hope everyone has a good start to the week.

Someone has, at $25 month. I asked them a couple questions, then realized i could do it for $0 a month using facebook.
If anyone needs help doing this, i can write more detailed instructions. You need a computer, internet access, an IP camera, audio source if the camera doesnt have it. You dont necessarily need an IP camera, there are hardware converters for analog cameras that can also be used, but IP cameras are cheap. I used an amcrest 4MP with zoom.
I have it setup on my laptop at home also, i can quickly watch/record any of my ip security cams with it.

Good Morning!!!! 46F @ 7:00AM. Some clouds this morning will give way to generally sunny skies for the afternoon. High near 55F. Winds NW at 5 to 10 mph.
Oh my gosh, Buppies, you win the snowfall award this morning! :shocked: Hope everyone takes it easy in the white stuff; don't wanna hear about trips to the hospital...
That was quite an adventure, Eric. Very nice of Mother Nature to wash that tree before you brought it into the house!:laughing:
Speaking of trees, there are a dozen and a half dragged over to the pasture next to the wood lot, just waiting for someone with a chainsaw to limb and buck them. All of them had been burned, but very oddly only at the root end for the first foot or so. All I had to do was throw a chain on them and pull them along with the tractor. All except for two, one of which got stuck in the fork of an adjacent tree, and needed decapitating with the chainsaw, and another that fell down hill and half the root ball was still firmly attached to the earth. More chainsawing got it free, but not before the bar got jammed requiring a careful pull to spread the cut back open. Only had the front wheels in the air a time or two trying to pull something too big; I think it was L4N that warned us earlier that could happen and it was a good reminder. I do that kind of thing very slowly, and never try to take a run and jerk the chain even though it just might break something loose. More likely to break something on the tractor or worse. Anyway, still have two very big oaks to bring in, and both of those will have to be sectioned up before they can be moved. I was half way through sawing one of them up last night when the saw unexpectedly quit, and when I checked the gas the cap fell into pieces. Was it you, Eric, that was complaining about Stihl gas caps? Will have to get a new one in town today. Only picked up 0.01 inches of rain overnight, so it should be dry enough to get a few more trees in this afternoon. It's sad to see so many on the ground, but the fire also burned the five greyhound buss sized brush piles I was counting on to provide firewood in my golden years. I'll try to take better care of this batch.
Hope everyone's week gets off to a fair start...

Well, I got the mail. I thought the PO opened at 8:30. It doesn't, it opens at 9, so I sat there for the half hour and listened to Jeff Foxworthy. The tarts have thawed out. All 9 boxes of them. I guess I will just have to eat them. I certainly will NOT trash them. Next time and there will be a next time, I will just take the almost 80 dollars I spent on tarts and give it away and not order any tarts.
I cannot get Bramley apple tarts in this country. I can't get Bramley apples in Ontario either. Anybody that grows them doesn't ship them.
