Good morning!!!!

I believe once I have both stations completely set up, MyPWS will allow easy data comparison on the iphone via its graph function.

That is correct. I have both stations set up on MyPWS, and can bring up a graph showing both stations comparing any single parameter.

54F and clear @ 21:15, headed down to a low of 36F.

Got second LED bulb installed in garage ... (just remembered I left Squeak out there ... better go let her back in ... ), good amount of clean up done as well, somewhat less organizing.

Lubed chain on snowblower with Fluid Film. Will take it off tomorrow and put the box blade back on.

Hauled cat litter up to compost pile and worked on the pile a little ... surprisingly dry ground.

Checked one of the bluebird boxes ... looked like a HOSP, which flew off when I approached, was trying to nest in it. Probably deploy trap tomorrow.

Worked a little on a rut in the yard that someone left when they drove over it.

Fed all the fish.

Called Menards, spoke to the guy who waited on me when I picked order up yesterday, hopefully get a call back from him by noon tomorrow about getting correct items.

Finished up shrimp with lobster sauce from yesterday for dinner.

Spring fish auction just ended. Put up some fish for auction, all of them sold ... was pleasantly surprised at how much they went for. Won about half of the items I bid on and spent way less money than what my fish brought in. Other items that I donated all sold as well and raised some money for fish research, education and conservation efforts.

Sheetcake action possible later ...

I use Weather Display software it keeps all data on your PC even when the internet is down.

Everyone enjoy,
Oh and for those that are complaining about their power bills,
my electric runs around $150-$170 a month in the winter,
I buy around 800 to 1000 gallons of heating oil for the year ($1.60 last summer per gallon),
then 3-4 tons of coal at $265 to $280 per ton every year.
And that's just for my home and detached little shop.

The farm bill runs $350-$500 which is much better then when it was a working dairy farm and $6000-$10,000 a month.
Just to milk 150 - 180 cows.

I can remember our family paying around $15 a ton for coal in the early 60’s.

Bit early for mowing up here, but the snow is melting fast! Went up to 60 yesterday, and the Maple trees were producing like crazy! Must have gotten 3 gallons of sap. Have to fire up the second freezer to store it all.

Meanwhile, still no side effects of my Saturday AstraZeneca shot - not even the slightest soreness at the injection site.

Headed over to the rental property today to prepare for a big bonfire to burn the old dock superstructure that we pulled out of the water last Fall.

Easter is coming up, guys - Turkey time!

Coffee is done brewing. 30° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 68° with mix of sun and clouds. Did some cleanup of garden pond. While cleaning up waterfall filter found it still had ice in it. Maybe I am doing cleanup too early. It sure was nice to get out in shirtsleeves. Did a couple of small tool maintenance jobs. Will do more pond cleanup today.
Checking my outside motion cameras yesterday. What I thought was neighbors cat was a fox. First time I have seen one in years. Have to keep a better eye on Sassy when let out.
Suet Cakes do not last long this of time of year.

Check, we will be having Ham for Easter.

Roy, I have a set of the hammer blades for my Flail Mower. They sure do a good job. Takes about 45 minutes to from Y blades to Hammers. worth the time.

Buckeye, great memory pictures.

Everyone stay safe and healthy.

Good Morning All.

32-62 today.
I’ve got work piling up in the garage, mower blades to sharpen, going to need them in a week or two.
Lots of furniture waiting for me, I need to get it done so I can share in Rick’s cha-Ching.

Finally got rid of the big enclosed trailer that I sold a month ago, I had to deliver it.

We went to father in law’s house and went through some more his buildings full of collectibles. We’ve contacted American Pickers and after seeing pics they want to visit him when in the area next month. You would not believe the things he has. Antique washers, some gas powered, bicycles, liquor stills, peddle cars, tools, tractors, you name it.

Well Mother Nature calls.

 

[Buppies]

40 high of 61 today only got work done this weekend no sticks

toppop sounds like a treasure trove

Prayers for all our country

Not quite Ron's shirtsleeves weather for a wimp like me, I'm still wearing a beanie hat and had a thick fleece under my jacket.

Check, thought of you and your maple syrup yesterday when I was out with the chainsaw. I thought it had started to rain, then realised the "raindrops" were sap from a birch branch that I had cut off overhead earlier to allow me to fell an adjacent alder. How much syrup will you get from 3 gallons of sap ?

it’s age is revealed by the fact that the output is a 9 pin RS232 connector

How many of us oldies thought how slender those connectors were when they first came out, after the 25 way D's ?

good morning all. Each day it gets a little lighter out outside, nice to have longer days to enjoy.
Another nice day up to low 60's today.

Barbecue grill getting delivered this morning and another painter coming out to quote.
Then I'm off to local nursery to get some pansies for outside. I may freeze them but forecast so far looks safe.
Burpee says nothing outdoors until mid April, except for potatoes. As soon as the garden topsoil gets delivered, they get planted.

Hope you all have a good start to your week.

I see a lot of you still having pretty cool weather . . . But not here. 56 degrees going for a high of 65 today with, supposedly, a 90% chance of rain this evening and tonight. We really do need the rain, and I'm not at all confident in the forecast. So, since I don't have the equipment to seed the clouds, I'm trying the next best thing. Yesterday, I spread some Scotts Weed & Feed fertilizer on the yard, then set up my sprinklers. So this morning I turned on my lawn sprinklers at 3:30 a.m. to try to encourage it to rain.

 

[Alien]

Wont stop raining here but the only complaint is that sadly I have to go driving in it. My wife developed a sudden eye problem this morning so I had to rush her to the city. They did tests and booked her into a specialist for tomorrow so another trip in the non stop rain. Fog up on the mountain was pretty bad and it will be the same tomorrow. Pretty worrying condition so hope they can sort it. This on top of her glaucoma we can do without. Busy week so may not be on much. Take care all.

That usually works for me. Another way is to wash your truck. Works every time.

You won’t hurt the pansies, mine have been blooming all winter.

Sure hope her eye problem isn't too serious.
