Coffee is done brewing. 28° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 30° with cloudys skies. No accumulation of snow yesterday. Did get filter mounting painted with a second coat of paint. Neighbor called asking if I wanted to go with him to gun range. I got a haircut while neighbor did some siting in of his new rifle. Couple stops on the way home and it was dark when we got home. Grocery shopping this morning. Then start install of new whole house filters.
When grass is green Sand Hill Cranes show up.

Good Morning! Ron's post popped up while I was typing, darn, he beat me again and gets the worm.

38˚F warming to the mid 60s clear skies, winds changing to southerly.

Shower is sealed, lawn is mowed but ran out of daylight before I could wash the truck.

I'm having digging squirrel (or some critter) problems in the front yard. I'm trying a homemade recipe of peppermint oil coffee grounds.

Great crane picture

Rained yesterday afternoon .70 in for the week. Got parking lot finished back to main road intermediate mix about 350 tons. Will be much cooler today high in 40s.

Christmas snow here went poof raging pacific jet SE Ridge a killer

There are rude people everywhere try killing with kindness. Tractor is cabbed model 5240 Kubota 240 original hours 2011 model year. Mostly you and Thomas see thru the facade this is hard very hard and it’s beating me.

Prayers for all silent or spoken Ted and Dona, riptides, Kyle, PJ stepson and recovery others I missed our Country

I’m third as usual
but always first in our book...

good morning all
off to local garage this morning for new battery and I hope they can fix my car hood latch also.

outside gardens cleaned up, not much to do out there
bet there will be a lot of minus numbers this weekend for many of us,
as the Alberta Clipper brings in the cold

40 going to 46. Rain came in last night.

Buppies, you are doing great. Prayers for you and your wife.

BEF, enjoy that fudge. Great flavor choices and packaging...but what's inside is the payoff.

Finished cutting down the big Magnolia tree that 90% died last year. It was a real odd shape of curving trunks due to repeated ice damage breaking off sections over its nearly 40 years. This tree originally came up in my backyard in Virginia Beach...probably a bird dropped a seed. When I moved here, dug it up, and transplanted it here along with two pecan trees my dad brought as a housewarming gift. So this magnolia brings back special memories.

There is still a section growing that I'll leave and nurture since my wife likes to prune some leaves to use for Christmas decorations. Now, I have quite a lot of firewood to split, and many small branches to move to the brush pile.

Thought I had 4th place, but wngsprd sneaked in.
Did not try fudge yet, packaged very well, shipping was $5 if over a certain price.
Up early due to bathroom break.
Buppies, hang in there.

Snowstorm that was predicted fall apart,almost 1" wet snow and the ground being warm no plowing.

Outside chores done E muffin time.
Plans for today...8 hours at part store afterwards :unsure:

Enjoy your day all.

Costco has gotten too big, and they just don’t care about their customers.
I know the lady working the self checkout line does not want to scan large items in your cart. She always has a sour expression and acts like she just hates life. I still try to stay positive and be polite.
Need to find a way to express feedback to corporate.

For several years I had both Sams club and Costco. I’ve been with Costco from back before they were Costco, think it was called Price club. I was with Pace, that Sam’s club bought out in the mid 90s.

According to my quicken records that start in 1990, I was with price club and Pace in 1990. Membership was $25
My Costco record starts in 2002. Membership was $45 in 2002.
Sams club record starts 1994.

Find this hard to believe, but quicken says I’ve spent $108k at Costco since 2002.
$50k at Sam’s club 1994-2014.

Good morning, the low is 7 and going to a high of 10°F. Wind N 10 mph. 30% chance of flurries.

Today is a dump/town run and a trip to the hydraulic shop. He is only 6 miles down the road, so that is a bonus.

I've gobbled the goobers the quack wants me to eat, so now it is time for my happy oatmeal.

Have a safe day all
