The cat is responding to treatment. Antibiotics are doing their thing. The salmon slurry I made up for her went down the hatch pretty quick. I sat and watched her, so I know who ate it all.

That's great news.

Well, I finally bought a new tractor today, will be delivered on Friday morning. MF 1723, 23 h.p. diesel, 4x4, PS, tilt wheel, with loader, 60 belly mower, and box grader for my clam shell drive. R4 tires and a fabricated step to help me mount up. It痴 a SCUT and the perfect size for around here. I値l post pics once it痴 here.

Looks like Santa starting to make his rounds... congrats Randy. :cool2:

Good morning! 27˚F cloudy south breeze heading to the mid 40s.
Randy will be watching for the pics of your new tractor.
L4N- glad you cat is responding to treatment.
Some say two more nights of freezing so the water has been cut off in the garden till Saturday, and others say this was the last night of freezing temps, we will see.

Good morning. It's 30° here and calm this morning. The high is forecast to be 46° today. This should be our last day below freezing ... for a while. I'm glad to north winds are finally over too. Hoping to get back to more tree trimming and burn pile building. We still have three huge piles to burn so ... we'll see what wind does.

Don ... NWS says you'll see 36° tomorrow a.m. but 31° and 32° on Thursday / Friday.

Drew ... Safe travels!

Randy ... we're all looking forward to seeing your new tractor and you using it.

L4N ... glad you're cat is doing better.

Hope everyone has a productive "Hump Day".

Prayers to all.

Drinking second cup of hot coffee. -0 °F with clear skies this morning. Heading to 2° with partly cloudy skies. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!. Having a good time with aunt reminiscing, shopping and other stuff. So much that it has me behind on my GM readings. Did cancel visit to other aunt in Port Huron until Saturday. At 3pm yesterday roads were still in bad shape around here.

Prayers and best wishes for all.

Good Morning All.

11°F and partly cloudy this morning, going up to 38° today. Some high thin clouds made for a very colorful sunrise.

Congrats on the new tractor, Randy. I really liked the MF stuff when I was looking.

Have a safe trip, Drew.

Didn't freeze last night, looks like it drizzled a bit. System moving in for rest of week.. expecting some rain, perhaps snow in higher elevations.

First time in a long time that I had no back pain for 24hrs (had a good day yesterday, slept good last night). Need to continue the Total Gym workouts (just stretching low back right now) along with some time on treadmill.

Grand daughter really does NOT like taking the antibiotics.. this time it is the flavor she sort of likes, but fights it every time.. some of it is drama with her momma, but 2 days done, 8 more to go.

New job has a "playbook" they use, was able to get copy to start studying so I know what is happening.

Stay safe, prayers for those in need.

A clear and sunny 11ºF for today’s low; 18ºF and sunny presently; and I anticipate a sunny afternoon with the high temperature in the mid 20ºF’s. It was around 3ºF with the windchill during the morning walk of the perimeter. Definitely a day for the long undies and snowmobile suit.

Jim- Thanks for the information. I did buy the BGE from an authorized dealer. I used furnace cement for the cracked inner shell, but it took 5 burns to get rid of the smell. I’ll definitely research out the epoxy cement. It still works as designed. Again- thanks.

Randy- Congratulations on your new tractor.

Bruce- Thanks. I still have an operational Weber cobbled together from all the Webers I had. They are great grills.

David- I make great smoked ribs, but decent brisket still eludes me :embarrassed:. And now that I know that there is a nearby smokehouse (~8 miles) who make a really decent brisket my experimenting days are over. I still have some of the smoked brisket in the freezer. My inner shell cracked due to the expansion of a SS pan I was using as an indirect-steamer for smoking. According to a friend glowing cast iron = ~1000ºF BTDT (1x by accident ) And a big thanks for the BBQ Guru lead.

Drew- I wish you safe travels and a great time with your friends.

Bill- Great news about your cat. I hope the progress continues.

Hawkeye- I am happy to read that you have been pain free for a day. That’s progress Good luck with the Granddaughter and your position transition.

I hope that everyone is having a manageable day and everyone living in the land of cold stay warm.

My + thoughts and prayers.
