Good morning!

God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly).

37F right now, going up to mid 50’s, drippy day. Mrs and i are taking mom out to brunch after church - Mrs is looking forward to chicken&waffles after all her ditch diggin’ yesterday. Lots of branches, leaves, and muck after years of neglect, but the water is flowing freely and it should help reduce the slickness on the road. Supermarket after brunch for the week‘s supplies.

got down several dead standing hazardous tees down, but one got hung up and it took a while to rig and safely take down, but the fact that is shattered into several pieces on the way down, and since it was right next to our main hiking path, it was important to eliminate it.
I only managed to drop one nice black walnut, and got three straight logs for the sawmill. I wedged them up off the ground with some smaller log sections to keep them from soaking up moisture from the ground.

After brunch I plan to pickle some more hard boiled eggs and bake a quiche or two - the egg basket is full again and it needs some emptying

I hope everyone has a healthy, happy, peaceful, blessed Sunday!

26 outside this AM. Nice and frosty. Rain moving in around noon.

More running around to do today. Found light, but need more and still looking for an exhaust fan.

Only good thing was being with wife and Mission BBQ yesterday.

Also, caught this bird hunting around back run-in. Ron has motivated ne to carry the camera.

Hope all have a good day. Be safe.

27 and overcast here in srn NH. Increasing clouds, with a high near 35. Calm wind becoming southwest around 5 mph in the morning, forecast for today.

17° now going to be a cloudy day in the low to mid 30’s. Snow/rain/mix this evening and through tomorrow, the guessers are all over the place where the line will be. Time will tell.

Just finished cleaning up yesterday from the Thursday/Friday mess, got about 7” of heavy wet paste. Lost power a few times throughout the storm, longest was 4hrs. Trees are still weighed down with snow, hope they clear before it gets windy tomorrow!

Plans for today like others, refuel tractor, walk behind blower, generator and a trip to refill any empty cans.

Stay safe and healthy everyone

Pic from Friday morning lull in the snow, got a few more inches afterwards.

Good morning, Another day in paradise with colder weather 30 going to 40 and rain on the way.

Coffee is good this morning and Cody loved his walk. Need to brush him today and teeth as well. Shetland Sheepdogs shed a lot and if not brushed often we will have tumbleweeds in the house. Also need to call the vet for followup vaccine boosters tomorrow as well as an appointment at the groomer for bath and trim. His double coat protects him from the cold and he gets very frisky on cold weather days. Got our first short video clip from daughter that had arrived in Brussels this morning. She always keep us along for her overseas trips with small video clips and narratives of what she experience along the way. It is always interesting and it prompts further investigations on the internet to learn more about the places she is visiting.

Drew, good luck on your inspection of the motorhome. A 14 year old motorhome in good condition could be a good buy. Anything found during inspection is opportunity for negotiation

Morning All and hey PJ. 31F and gray. Likely rain this afternoon.
I too have been dealing with downed trees. Wednesday was a pretty nice day so I went up to the farm. The first tree I got to was a 5 trunk ash that had fallen over into a big pine. That ash is heavy and hard. I only got 3 trunks cut and pulled down before I ran out of battery for the milwaukee. I decided it was close enough to quitting time. I have another dead ash (darned emerald ash borers). I have been trying to decide if I want to mess with it or just let nature take its course. Lots to do if I find the want to.

Last Monday I decided I had been getting too much of the wrong seat time. I read about the horseshoe trail that runs 135 miles from Valley Forge and hits the AT north of Lebanon. I just walked a mile and a quarter up to a overlook. Nice walk through mature forest. I forgot about the holiday. I must have passed 8 parties. I picked the wrong coat so I was kind of sweated up by the time I got back to the truck.

Good morning,
It is presently 39F under cloud skies after an overnight low of 32. Forecast high for today is 47 with 100% chance of rain this afternoon.

Still no 'honey do' list which is a bit unusual, but I'll take it.

My get out the Z3 and go for a ride with my honey, just to get out and explore the area a bit.

Plan on spending the rainy part of the afternoon cleaning up the shop and maybe spend some time curled up on the sofa with my honey watching some movies.

Had the chainsaw out, started and ran much better, but still not 100% right. Good enough to finish cutting up the downed tree and getting that out of the way.

Looks like two of the post holes for my shop are not as deep as the others. Will measure them today and call contractor if they don't meet spec of 4ft. Need to get them corrected before Monday's inspection if they are not right.

Have a good day all, lets be careful out there.
