Good morning!!!!

[buckeyefarmer]

Breakfast with the gang today, decided to skip the trip for today to PA for locust posts, will do that another day.
got word the pipeline work at the farm will commence on monday with tree cutting. Surveyors have been marking the ROW. We must have been one of the last holdouts, and a key one at that.
One of the breakfast gang couples is leaving for Hawaii tomorrow. On big island staying the kona side. They are meeting with family, so kind of a reunion trip.
Some success trying to clone hard drive yesterday, but one partition failed, so did chkdisk on it, and will retry another day, just not today probably. All the newer types of drives, and different sector sizes makes what used to be a simple job a lot harder.

Missed my bike ride yesterday, might try to make up for it today, which means I need to get going.

successfully picked up rv and have it back in the driveway plugged in.

Now going to relax with a cup of coffee, then headed out to start washing.
going to hook the water back up, tomorrow I can use it too, then getting very cold on Sunday.

time to scrub a dub dub

Not a lot of room in Drews driveway. tight just backing a truck and trailer in.

usually when I get in rv there is a big mental shift I have to do
since it is long and wide and to some degree tall. Was easy today, after driving expedition around.
I'm already swinging wide for that, I think anyone that has driven big trucks just naturally swings a little wide.

Buckeye aced my driveway but it does take some care, two big black mailboxes standing guard at the end.
I had to park both cars on the lawn and thankfully that part did not rut; pretty squishy out there.
If I owned this cottage I would sure put a driveway in front with a turnaround and then parking in the rear.
instead this is like a city alley. ah, like RNG's alley! surprising what you can squeeze in there.

time to go burn some calories and get some sun on my face.

learned a wonderful new word today, involving rv sales practices, which certainly fits cars too
there is a term called being "pork chopped" on the agreement when the load in the extras in excess of normal.
Like padding the freight or the dealer doc charge.
I'm sure I've been pork chopped a time or three
all little pigs go to the F&I guy to get slaughtered...

2 hours of scrubbing and that was enough for today. Got all but one side of rv cleaned up, will finish rest tomorrow.
worked up a good sweat

fiddled with nav system on volvo and reset home to my sister's new address in Princeton. Could not see where to delete
all old addresses. I think she uses her phone anyway.

When I look out our bedroom window ice storm destruction almost naked not sure what to do with it. Pine trees took down poplar trees and some water oaks. Might plant in wild flowers just not sure yet. Nature decided for a reset.

Can it be mow until you decide.

Good (Saturday) morning. Overnight Low of 11.6C and it's presently 23.6C, mostly clear with some wind.

Randy, hope swelling comes down and you get some relief soon !

Hope tooth gets better wagtail sounds like abscess.

Thank you for the 'well wishes' and things have improved... a lot.

Living in a small town, albeit one large enough to support a Dental practice, Medical clinic and a Chemist, can lead to scheduling problems... the short story is that the dentist is closed on a Friday, the chemist doesn't have any "over the counter" antibiotics and the Clinic was fully booked.

I opted for a telephone consultation, if my Doctor could fit me in, and then waited. Finally I received the call at 1610, I 'raced' in to the clinic to pick up the script and then to the Chemist. I also got some pain tablets & an antiseptic mouthwash. YAY!

Home to transfer the horses to Paddock #3 [for those keeping track at home].

Now then, the split part of the tooth was wobbling like a 'baby tooth' so, with the assistance of the antiseptic mouthwash, I was able to 'pull' that portion of the tooth. No abscess... I know what that's like. <whew>

A very good night's sleep was had (only one glass of Merlot ) and the situation has vastly improved today.

I'll even get some 'tractor fun' in this arvo chain-harrowing Paddock #2.

That's about it, take care all.

The snow storm is upon us. At 1800 hrs there was 4" on the deck. It is supposed to end by noon tomorrow.
I'll do everybody thoroughly and give this place a lick and a promise. Sunday I can do this place properly.

M7040, Happy Birthday to your wife.

Wagtail, good tooth problem is NOT an abscess.

 

[Buppies]

No Thomas way too steep a push mower would be dangerous still thinking.
