47°F this morning and a bit foggy. Forecast says 51°F for this afternoon. Winds are supposed to pick up to 20-25 mph later today.

Temps will drop overnight, to low 30's by tomorrow morning. Forecast is three mornings at or below freezing then back to high 70's on the weekend.

Got my mud flaps installed on our new F-350 yesterday so, should make a difference on driving thru mud.

Plan for today is some shop cleanup and maybe watch the NASCAR Las Vegas race later.

I've cut coffee back to two cups in the morning quite a while ago, some days only one cup. I quit drinking sodas over two years ago.

Hope everyone has an excellent Sunday.

Prayers to all.

35F now is probably the high for today- rain and snow expected this afternoon and tonight. Guess is for about 5” accumulation.

I cut down to 2 cups of coffee per day upon retirement- used to drink a lot more when working.

I love yesterday’s “grotto” photo!

Enjoy your Sunday.

Good morning. 30 now and likely to stay about the same all day. We are on the northern edge of the weather advisory. Nothing happening yet.

I know I drink too much coffee......a habit I acquired later in life. But I drink no soda....so there is that. And the coffee is always black.

I was pretty pleased with the new neighbors offer. They arrived concerned, left happy. I was happy too, free wood and help harvesting it.

See what I can get into today.

Have a good and safe day.

Good morning all,

Starting off cold this morning, sitting right at 0 with clear skies. Got a good hot fire burning so nice and warm in the house.:thumbsup:

Rick, thanks for your service and your brothers.

Good morning to all! Low only down to 33, 36 at daybreak, high of 48. Last night heard some sleet or big raindrops hitting the metal porch roof. Didn't last long, less than a minute. No measurable precip in the gauge. Maybe a sprinkle

Drew, nice progress on the garden, it's nice that the weather is somewhat cooperating so you can get outside. Glad to hear the CBD is helping.

I go to the ortho doc tomorrow, will be interesting to hear what he has to say about the knee not healing. The PT didn't help, actually making it worse, acupuncture didn't work, also making it worse, medication...nope, no help. I'll see what the next step (no pun intended) will be hopefully tomorrow.

Today is a 'take it easy day', just putter about.

Everyone have a quiet Sunday, prayers sent.

Good Morning Everyone!!!!!!

27ºF start to the morning; presently 32ºF with mixed sun/clouds and temps are expected to rise into the mid30ºF's later.

Checked in with early morning weather news and :eek:. A whole new weather world later today. A significant decrease in predicted snowfall amounts. The storm is speeding up, weakening, and tracking more southeast. In reality I am happy to be wrong. I do not need nor want any more snow until I can operate the tractor.

Kyle- I can understand the reasoning behind increasing classroom exposure, but if known triggers are contained w/i the classroom environment it's a set up for your daughter. Are they working at desensitizing your daughter to her triggers with role playing, visualized training, coping strategies? Is her homeroom teacher on board with the plan and her classmates being educated? I believe that you and your family have valid reasons for your concerns. The end goal is your daughter being able to be successful in a classroom environment. It will take time courage, and luck. I am asking a lot of ?'s. My + thoughts, wishes and prayers for your daughter, you, and your family.

Rich- Thanks for sharing your good news about decent new neighbors and a good day ending with a dinner out with the Wife.

Bruce- Thanks. Mr. Knee has been complaining. 2 more weeks at 0º - 5º ROM until my next orthopedist appointment.

Ray- Thank you for sharing and doing the right thing for Hooter.

Drew- I am happy to read that the CBD works. Thanks for the pictures.

Ted- Good luck tomorrow.

My + thoughts, wishes, and prayers.

We had a relatively mild (warm) February, but maybe that's about to change. 34 degrees going for a high of 38 today, BUT supposed to get down to 20 tonight and stay below freezing for a couple of days. We've had plenty of cloudy, damp, misty, dismal days lately. The NWS shows we got about .01" of precipitation around 10 p.m. last night, but my gauge had about .08" in it.

46 now, predicted high is 43, so I guess that was wrong. Rain moving in for most of the afternoon and evening.
HAPPY NATIONAL ANTHEM DAY! God bless us all and this great country of ours.

Good Morning!!!! 48F @ 6:30AM. Cloudy with periods of rain. High 51F. Winds light and variable. Chance of rain 80%. Rainfall near a half an inch.

Picked up another half inch of rain yesterday morning, and since midnight, another tenth or so has fallen. Looks like showers on and off for the rest of the day, then more steady rain tonight. It's raining right now, pitter pattering on the steel porch cover and gurgling through the downspouts. Glad I don't have any pressing work outside to do, but it would be nice to do a little wood cutting every day so as to avoid overdosing trying to catch up, as so many of us are inclined to do.

Hope you find relief for your knee soon, Ted. There's a doctor out there somewhere that has it to give, you just have to find them.

You're very lucky to have neighbors like that, Rich!

Think I'll try and locate a source for used plastic shipping pallets nearby today. Many of the wooden ones I used have broken or rotted, and the screws holding the 2x4 lumber uprights have popped from the load imposed by the stacked firewood splits. I think the plastic pallets will be sturdier, and provide a better base to screw steel uprights to, that should be strong enough to support the weight of another pallet stacked on top. I don't want to lose anymore wood to wildfire, especially not after it's been split and stacked, so I'm also planning one or more steel sheds in which to store it. If I can keep the floor area down to 120 sq. ft. each, I won't need to pull a permit. If I make it 7.5' x 16', I should be able to get 16 of the 42" x 48" pallets inside. If I can find 36" x 48" pallets, that jumps to 20 pallets, and might cover the whole harvest. Hard to say how much wood is down out there because every time I go poking around I find more.

Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekend...
