Good morning!!!!

[riptides]

41 heading to 50 this AM. Slight rain chances.
Wife called in the burn yesterday evening.
An hour later I see the fire marshal heading up the road. We have visibility down to the road about a half mile. Sure enough he is slowing down and turned into the driveway. I wave to him and he backs out and heads back up the road. Guess one of my neighbors called it in.
It was a little large

Hope all have a good day.

Be safe and stay healthy.

42 and quite a lot of rain so far. Only looking for 50 later.

Great birthday cake for Sophie...hope she has many more.

Hope your dad has a nice birthday, BEF. Maybe plan a family celebration later when we are back to normal.

Dirtied up my just-cleaned pto by bush hogging 5 hours yesterday. Got about 2/3 of the fields complete. Had a red-tailed hawk follow me around and perch on trees waiting for a fleeing critter. Sure enough a vole met its maker. A crow was merciless swooping down at the hawk, and actually hitting in when it flew. I also flushed out the first snake of the season...a 3 foot black. Then swapped off the bush hog for the tiller to do one more garden tilling before this rain came in.

My wife made home made vegetable soup and grilled cheese, so went to bed tired and happy.

Stay well!

Nice fire! Will it keep burning through this rain?

Drinking first cup of coffee. 31° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 45° with cloudy skies. Got 1" of snow overnight. Drive is just wet. I thinks I will wait and see if walkways need cleaning. Laundry and house cleaning are done. Need a conserve energy day. Son and Grandson came and picked up his Travel Trailer yesterday. Only waved at each other from 50' away.
Birds are checking out all my trees.


Michigan CV cases/deaths. 1035/9. Oakland county 277/1. Still 60% of cases are 40 to 69 years old. 16% are 70 and older.

Saw this explanation of why places are being shut down. Not sure if all numbers are true. But it makes sense.

Happy Birthday Sophie !!!

Happy Birthday Buckeyes Dad !!!

Mostly, Lactose Intolerance. Dr mentioned that as one possibility. May be a good time to try not having any. Just need to figure out what to use with my Raisin Bran. Orange Juice, Apple Juice, Cranberry Juice, water or eat it dry. :confused3:

David, you did good with cake.

RNG, the projects continue. When will solar panels be installed?

Looking, safe travels to the big city.

Everyone be safe and healthy.

Good Morning All.

Ron, any liquid that normally goes with raisins should taste pretty good on raisin bran.
I am LI as well and I use single-serving fruit yogurt on my raw oatmeal. Sometimes I put some Maple Syrup on as well.

Still smoldering this AM. Need to push it over....but the tractor is too new. LOL

I have two really big stumps in it. Really big...so I will just add to it and start over.

Rain up here is more of a drizzle.....

Nice fire! Will it keep burning through this rain?

Ron, try one of the lactose-free milks, or one of the fake milk alternatives, such as almond beverage or soy.

I felt I was getting a bit of bloating after eating cereal, so am on my 2nd half-gallon of the Lactaid fat-free brand and can't tell the difference.

Looking and Wngsprd. Thanks. Not going shopping until all other paths have been tried. Not scared but being very cautious.

No project progress today, opted for more important stuff.
Today was wife痴 birthday. Not able to take her out given current environment, so ....
Made dinner (not so unusual), but also baked her a cake. Not being a planned event was somewhat limited by stuff on hand. Even made her a buttercream frosting. I値l spare you my singing.

The placing of the candles leads me to guess that she's 67. But whatever age, I wish her a Happy Birthday and many more to come.

Wishing Sophie and Buckeyes Dad many many more trips around the sun.
