Good morning!!!!

Thanks RS. So you have high functioning green slime. I bet the manatees would love that...like a green milk shake.
Spirulina is gobbled down by many, though I think they dry it out and make it presentable.
Better make sure it can't ooze its way out of the tank and come looking for you at night.

Don, if I'm in an enclosed room or hallway I'm likely to wear a mask until I get back to my room. I spend most of my time out on the balcony anyway,
watching the water go by. I'm not going to go to the night time attractions in the main auditorium, that just strikes me as a spreader event in the making.
I also have never found one of the entertainments to be worth it, having been dragged to way too many by my late wife. My friend is fully aware she will be going
to some events all by herself and she is just fine with that. She has lived by herself as long as I have and is very independent.
My feelings are just because no one else wears a mask does not make that a wise choice. That's the essence of lemmings off a cliff.
Walking around outside on the decks, no masks for anything outside. The ship is going over 20mph anyway and that sure moves the air.
But this will have to be a very, very different world with all kinds of HEPA air filtration inside before I am going unmasked in a large public room full of people
in the foreseeable near future.

I throw all kinds of stuff together willy nilly baking but this time I got the baking time just right.
Pecan Cranberry Strawberry scones covered in crunchy baked pecan bits. The strawberries were organic
Driscolls which are always hit or miss, these on sale were awesome, with a strong strawberry bouquet.
Plus organic dried cranberries. Not a lot of butter or oil either so that means they will dry out quickly.
I need to wrap them up carefully.

Ken, I'll wrap four of these up in a little tupperware and if you come up and get it, I guarantee it will get you
out of the doghouse. Magic scones made just for your wife.
Not a bad offer actually.

10 right now...high in the upper 30's today...

Dropped the all-season tires off yesterday. They'll be mounted on the new (used) rims and the snow tires will be swapped out this afternoon.

Isn't that a little early?

Thanks for all the birthday wishes! Had a great day. Weather was sunny and nice with no wind. Went for a nice walk with my wife then puttered outside enjoying the day. Two nice steaks on the grill will finish off things smartly!

Stay safe and healthy all!

Isn't that a little early?

Hope not, but wouldn't be the first time we got a March (or April) surprise!
Appears the temperatures will continue in the mid-50's to low 60's for the next 10 days. All-seasons do Ok in the snow (this winter was the first time I've ever had snow tires) and I'm OK with driving in the snow (but I don't like to)...so, if we get another snow, I either deal with it, or take a vacation day. Pretty low risk, IMHO...

Thanks RS.

You betcha ...

So you have high functioning green slime.

LOL ... how so ?

I bet the manatees would love that...like a green milk shake.

I have made green "milkshakes" out of it ... when I wanted to populate a tank with it.

Pretty easy ... just put it in a container and give it a few shakes and then dump it in the water.

Spirulina is gobbled down by many, though I think they dry it out and make it presentable.

Yeah ... not much market for green slime I'd imagine.

Better make sure it can't ooze its way out of the tank and come looking for you at night.

Not much danger of that I think ... now the worms might be another story ...

Given the possibility of further mutations and variants, that seems like a fairly wise course of action ... at least for the moment ...

White worm harvest - living spaghetti (for fish ):

It was a veritable feeding frenzy ...

Are those the same worms we used to get as Sea Monkees in the backs of Popular Mechanics?

Getting some mow time in. Lunch break.
Enjoying something new. My Tractor mounted Unifi internet works great. Did find 1 smallish dead spot behind the grove of trees. Able to watch/listen to You tube videos as I mow. Sound a bit spotty depending on the video. Gonna try different headset when I go back out.

Yikes! on the watching while you mow.

Yikes! on the watching while you mow.

Judiciously...
Not places where full attention is needed, BUT, there is a lot where it is pretty mindless.

 

[sodamo]

Drew, those look yummy

 

[buckeyefarmer]

Happy birthday Phil.
My wife got pellet stove going again.

Also stopped by the Kubota dealer and bought two pails of Super UDT2 hydraulic fluid, getting $20 off each of them with a coupon from Kubota.

I need to do the L5030 in Ohio.

The overnight lows aren't going to get over freezing all week. YES! Daytime highs will be above freezing. Here comes the sap.
This also means a slow melt, less likely the creek will overflow.

Drew, those scones do look good. Have you ever tried using applesauce instead of oil/butter for the moister?

Potato garden update - We have surpassed 50% - 35 of 64 plants have popped up.

Storms rolling through tonight, park cerdrcide is questionable for the morning.
