Good morning!!!!

Good Morning
43° and the sun shining through the clouds. High of 48 with dissipating clouds, another dry windy day. Should help to dry things up out there.

Yesterday got off to a good start with the professor, oldest son joined us as well.
Afterwards, I headed off to the electric supply to get the material to electrify the new shed. That project required rearranging the end bay of the shop from winter storage (ready to plow snow) to summer storage (ready to mow).

As long as the Lazer was out and running, I mowed around the buildings, and followed up with the string trimmer and blower. It’s this sort of distraction from the task at hand that keeps me busy all day.
After the mowing was out of my system, I swept out the bay and set up the laser to give me a straight line to drill the joists for the wire. Drilling the joists and pulling the wire in a 12 foot ceiling by yourself is good exercise. Plenty of trips up and down the 10’ stepladder. But I managed to get it run from the panel and the breaker installed before dinner, even with an excursion to the neighbors to locate their FIOS cable so they didn’t drill a post hole through it.
It looks like they might have hit if they didn’t locate it and adjust the fence to span it. Long odds for a post hole on 100 acres to line up with a utility.

Today I hope to get the feed into the shed, and get the breaker panel and wiring done in there, so it’s ready for the urethane foam.

Grandson has program at school that I will likely attend, so that will interrupt progress, but I don’t have any other plans, so I should get it all done.

I now have orders for four more bean pots so going to work on that first thing this morning. Not going to warm up much today so might as well
get out there. Good way to recycle my old planting pots, bush beans are dirt cheap, think I have plenty of potting soil left though I try to recycle much of the original dirt in the pot.

showered and shaved, ready to get something accomplished

Some how this Fluke ended up on the work bench

Looks like you misplaced it before you got to use it!
I keep a 116 along with a clamp meter in my car for triage assesment.
It’s really hard to go wrong with fluke instruments.

Good morning, high winds yesterday afternoon left many trees down around Sellersville area, power still out since 4:30 yesterday afternoon, estimated on time 5:30 tonight, maybe sooner if lucky.
Generator getting a good exercise

Morning all, 45 going to 54 and sunny, windy.
Surprised with the winds last night I didn't hear anything fall.
Did go looking at trucks last night. Even looked at a plug in hybrid that looked good.

Buppies - hope you recover fast - and that holly does not get it and gets her meds balanced. 47 rolls must have been beautiful. Restoration of these cars is an art form.

L4N sounds like a beautiful car , maybe it will find it's way home in the future.

Looking at pictures from this day last year, my cherry tree in the back was in full flower, right now just getting ready to flower, so maybe a week late?

More truck shopping tonight, too windy to finish picking up sticks.
Also need to trim the road area back a bit, still looks pretty good from last years work, time to get the growth back another foot or two. Don't want to go to fast and get erosion.

Be well,
In the front woods

Front yard, mine are still opening while downhill they are already done, less than a mile away.

Behind the garage, near the peach trees, which are also blooming.

In the garden, took 5 years for this plant to be this happy. Did not flower at all the first three years,

I was up at 4 and went back to bed at 6, got up again at 9. At least the snow stopped. We got enough to cover everything that was brown, white. The cats were NOT impressed. Two of 'em went out, but the young tom came right back in. The older tom stayed out for about 15 minutes.

I am still going to Burks Falls this morning after the dump run, then up to Powassan for cat litter and a stop at the tractor shop for a few minutes.

very pretty flowers Ken
had to make a quick run back to local chocolate shop because I gave the wrong bag to the wrong kids yesterday
and now the little girl I promised a chocolate rabbit to was going to get gypped. So back I went for more rabbits, and even got
a tiny one for me to eat, solid dark chocolate. It's ok, not sure it's anything special. They do have some fun chocolate food art there, so pretty you
don't want to bite into them

came home and windy plus cold. Not motivated yet to go outside, will give it another hour.

Willman, good morning, didn't realize you were so close, down the street a bit from Popgadget.
Sellersville is where local hospital has main location.

Well I am slowly recovering many years of accumulations where buying because of not being able to find was happening way too often.
Spotting a lot of items to go into the welding shop. Will leave the Everlast stick welder upstairs as well as the Miller MIG welder but move the Oxy Accy and postvise down. But next to move down is the 60 inch Knaack job site box with piano style pull up door that holds a lot of the welding supplies
