Back from town.
Wife’s pressure up in eye again so a new prescription and follow up next week. A path forward for the lens issue, but less than pleased. Emergency surgery to anchor current lens scheduled for 6/20 - that’s 6 weeks. Hate to think if not an emergency.
Another point, the anchor surgery was the original reason to see this Dr back in Jan and he decided to take another approach resulting in the delay.
Besides the other hoopla required, she has to get a corvid test the day before. That means flying over a day early, getting tested and spending the night before, supposedly the local lab here does a different test and no guarantee results will be available on time.

2 trips to Walmart as we had to go back for the prescription. I didn’t go in, but wife said, people seem to be getting antsy, perhaps losing patience over the restrictions.

Safeway was easy for a Friday, no line, but apparently they didn’t get expected stocking according what I overhead guy behind meat case tell a woman. I was disappointed the advertised on sale T bones were missing as well as much of the meat counter otherwise we got everything. Even a selection of TP at 2nd store we shopped.

Had an A10 flyover at 2:30 today, went around in a big loop covered the population centers in the eastern part of the state. The three of them came in at about 3000 ft right over the airport, which is very close, as in I can see the end of the north/south runway from my backyard. They went east and did some maneuvers for about 20 minutes, then headed northwest and up to Baltimore.

They were supposed to fly into Frederick at 1:45, the map showed they might go over me, so I went outside awhile but saw nothing. Well, did see a hummingbird.

31 right now...looks like about a quarter inch of snow outside and appears to have stopped. High today, about 40...
I am ready for a real Spring!

Chores...definitely a dump run! I've also got to grind bevels on the outboard side of the lower hooks on my quick hitch. The lowers hook bind up in the chipper's lower attach points (bend welded plate). A picture would help clarify. I'll try to get one today...but TBNers with Woodmaxx chippers know what I mean. I won't be doing any chipping today as I'm waiting for a pole saw to be delivered (early next week). Hopefully, the quick hitch will fit with no binding after I bevel the corners of the lower hooks. I'll report more later today or tomorrow morning

Morning all!
LCR.-Sorry for loss of your good friend.
Drew_-Hope you feel better soon.
32 here with snow this morning. Thankfully just 1/4 inch or so. Around this weekend back in 1979 we had a 12-14 inch storm.
4 tons of pellets got delivered yesterday and need to be put away. New windshield getting installed in my truck today as I caught a stone from a truck that gave it a 10 inch crack.
First hummingbird of the season showed up for us yesterday. Poor thing is going to freeze this weekend. Our local hospital is down to 1 case.
Hope everyone stays safe and healthy!

Good morning, the temp is 23°F and going to a high of 37. Wind NW 8 mph. 70% chance of flurries. YUK!

Yesterday morning I woke up to 2" of snow. Another inch this morning. :thumbdown:

As much as I like snow, I only like to see it from November to April.

I have two packages waiting for me at the local convenience store which acts as a drop off spot for the courier the company uses. I will go get them about 8:30 or so.

No word on the roller that was supposed to be here two days after I ordered it a week ago.:(

The field where the compost piles are is way too wet to put the Kioti on. So compost piles wont get turned until the fall, maybe. IF I get home for the July long weekend, maybe I will turn the piles then.

I was going to wire in an extra circuit so I could run my fan AND power a dash cam at the same time. That wont happen until things warm up a little.

I think one of the next projects for the tractor will be a horn.


Have a safe and healthy day all
