Good morning!!!!

[LS Tractor Owner]

RNG, it took a lot of patience and perseverance. He took some side video, but the coolest was when he mounted the GoPro under the tractor canopy. I DID the work and cannot wait to see the video! He only showed me a few brief clips..... I think the next videos will be of the concrete pours. He wants to keep them all in chronological order.

BB- Those crampons are not recommended for indoor use nor "technical climbing", and they would probably do a serious "number" on our hardwood and linoleum floors, rugs, bedsheets, and SelectComfort® bed air bladders; but they work outside really well So far so good = no fractured patellas's like last year due to inferior product design.

Ted- I am looking forward to more videos. My videoed drone test flights lasted ~11 minutes on a good day. The flight preparations and subsequent video editing took hours more like a NASA space launch. I am enjoying the "process." Keep them coming.

So today, because the son ‘ s gravel drive turned out so good, the wifey told me we need more stone in our drive. It is ordered and should be delivered tomorrow at 8 am. WOOHOO! More seat time! I spent today moving the travel trailer, the little utility trailer, and general prep of the area / our driveway.
Of course, the weather forecast now shows us getting rain / snow by about 10 am.... figures....

I will get some before and after pics. Maybe the son will lend me his GoPro..... mmmmm.... maybe I should not.....

Remember my drone's video'd "perfect" backflip landing? You do a really great job working your attachments. Your/Son's videos are on a tutorial level for many.

Keep them coming!!!

 

[Big Barn]

Big barn, your place is gorgeous! I am amazed that it is still so green... not even the winter dulling / drab color... it is really bright! Do you get any snow?

We had a bit of snow last week but it melted over the weekend.

Our weather conditions are similar to Seattle.

Slightly good news on FIL. Some recognition, he stuck his tongue out when they asked, and wiggled his toes when asked. They found some kind of infection that they are treating. And the Hopkins neurologist thinks it is stroke related, while the other hospital didn’t.

Fixed my dryer and changed car oil tonight.

Probably not recommended ... if you take your wife dancing either?

Ted, the magical gravel spreader. Looks good buddy.

Drew, wish I could have joined you for a plate of that. yummy.

Bef, sounds like a slight improvement. Hopefully more to come.

Bups, sorry you are still sore. Don't even let a skinny woman walk on your back with crampons. (Until you are better)

Low rise crampons for shag carpet raking.

Big Barn, rename that big cat Houdini....or hook a charged capacitor to the door handle. Just don't forget about it.

Mostly, dare you to put merthiolate on that road rash... Just kidding. Did everyone know that merthiolate has mercury and is frowned upon these days? How did we ever make it this far?....with only a few channels growing up???

Listening to an audio book by Stephen Ambrose about Meriwether Lewis and Thomas Jefferson. Started out a bit slow, but he's getting ready for his expedition now....

Is this it Kyle?



Best treatment for road rash ... is inter-mingled Neosporin and Vaseline so ... no scab ever forms. Don't ask how I know that.

Good evening all. 30F for the start, clear, light breeze. Wind stayed light, sky stayed clear, and high temp was 55F. Choir practice to start day, no fire today but did clean ashes out of insert. bike ride went fine, knee was not a problem. Did get a nap in.
Buppies, been awhile since driving in that area, think Knoxville was having some kind of world's fair.
Drew, good to hear of the improvement.
Bill, need pics and details.
Ron glad others id'ed the birds, not my strong suit.
Roy hope you can get home internet squared away.
Buppies are you talking about neglected roadbed repairs, or something else?
Eric I think days are getting longer, easier to tell when sky is clear
Don, glas you solved mystery, now why would someone trade down? No snow forecast by Wunderground, tv sys outside chace of winter precip Wed. morning.
Rick thanks for the water tower history. STL still had 3 brick water towers, 2 were within 3 mile radius of where I worked in North STL, PJ not that far away either.
RNG, that was some weirs weather readings.
Buckeye, nice you can move holiday to snow day. Never got MLK off.
TEd driveway looks nice, hope you get same result on your driveway.
Phil goos luck with getting a better plow job from city
Drew dinner looks good, when you serving leftovers?
Big Barn nice pic, enjoy daughter time. :welcome: Nice cats
Buckeye, good to hear of FIL responsive.
Kyle have been using Neosporin, Merthiolate had alcohol in it as it stung when used.
Rick never tried using Vaseline with Neosporin.
prayers for all

Hope you get better soon

Outlook was better today, thanks for asking. Very strange situation with his deep sleeping. Although he does have narcolepsy. His legs and feet are very swollen.
My wife ended up asking a friend for a ride to Hopkins today (she won’t drive in the city) and she stayed tonight with her mom and sister in hotel near downtown Baltimore. We offered our house, but they wanted to stay close.

I howled more than once when mom dosed me with that devil's brew, Kyle. Fortunately peroxide came along not much longer after that, and even though it boiled into a furious froth, it didn't hurt. But maybe the red stuff was an incentive to not take so many chances?

Back home from medical day.

Wife minus a molar short, but quite pleased with the oral surgeon and the experience. Say’s she didn’t feel it at all (except some pressure). She’s happy she didn’t wait for the original appointment in Mar.

Health clinic - it’s usual trial.
Wife presented a clipboard full of forms that cropped up since Obamacare. Claim they must be redone every 3 years. Told wife I’m going just write “No Change” over the appropriate categories. Then they also ask totally irrelevant questions re income etc, Told her, None of their business as she had insurance, not asking for free or reduced care. Learned this was classified as a Medicare Wellness visit from the nurse who played 50 questions. At least she had a sense of humor. This has been our primary care since 2006. Dr started asking about prescriptions and shots. I said, that should all be in the computer. He said somehow got deleted.
He had renewed one of the prescriptions earlier so knew about it, wife had paper copy of her shot record.

My turn is Wed. Not happy as we usually get back to back appointments with same PC. When I complained, he remarked he didn’t know why not as the slot before wife was empty so I could have had it. Wed could be interesting day.

crampons. A new one for me. I had to google it.

They work great! I have a pair too...
