good morning, 60 going to 80

worked on learning how to send large files attached to email. Used iPhone feature to scan and save, used iMac to load the dropbox app and download files to convert to a send format and sent a test email. Hope it works

D's blood test was a match for the bone marrow donation however the recipient was no longer stable and not able to receive it. She is returning to the National Registry

Also use the Flexeel polyurethane air hose. Have several others including ceiling mounted reel with rubber hoses but don't use them any more after getting the Flexeel hose. The larger air hose with Chicago fittings is also just hanging there on the wall

Good Morning,
Vt, 52 to start going to 76 or so. It will be an easier paced day than the last 4 .

Finally finished the deck after 4 days of hard work and Kathleen rewarded me by taking us out to a nice dinner last night

Some easier stuff planned for today, put all my tools away and clean up the barn floor where the Trex decking has been laying forever. Maybe a quick mow job around the house and a nice ride out on the lake with the pontoon boat. Other than that not much planned.

Hope all have a good start to their week

58 outside right now, fog rolling in, heading to lower 80's. May get some rain tonight, or tomorrow.

Ending up splitting wood and moving it around yesterday. Lost count over 300 splits. That equated to 3 RTV loads. I still have over 80 rounds left, with some monster size. I have topped off the shed and may have to tarp cover the rest if I split it at all.

No plans for today, just real job and maybe a dump run.

Deck came out good. @scott_vt

I get cold just looking at that rig. @ArlyA Hope the potential purchase works out.

Hope all have a great start to the week. Be safe.

nice job Scott, sure looks pretty there

foot of snow in that picture makes one think about this winter
I'm told the East is going to get more snow.
time for Buppies annual forecast

I have a problem with noise at the moment.
one good, one bad.
The bad is the barking dogs at my neighbors, the problem one, that go nuts every time the kids go
out to wait for the bus. They want to play and they sure want to bark. Nice dog just needs some training and not
going to get it.

The good is someone nearby has a new rooster.
sometimes roosters can be too much though, that noise of theirs is supposed to be
proclaiming its territory, but yeah buddy, I got it, you told me thirty times, you can stop squawking now...
otherwise I think that's a wonderful sound
Mother Nature's alarm clock.

Nice looking well done job Scotty.

Good morning, the low is 48 and going to 70°F. Wind ENE 9 mph. Sunny!

I'm going to town later today for a couple of items.

I think the rest of the day will be conserve energy seeing as the tarp didn't show up. At least I can bark at Amazon and they wont tell me untruths.

Drew, thanks for the bike tips.

Drew, when you get really tired of roosters and their squawking they will fit in the stew pot.


Have a safe day all

A snow post for the UP of MI where we reside. I couldn't find a nice map showing just lake superior. We moved here to see consistent snow over the winter for snow sports, while having moderate temps. Houghton is on the large peninsula at the bottom and centerish of lake Superior. The lake is a heat sink and warms the cool winter air pretty much all winter. We rarely cool to zero but see snow most days all winter.

Good morning! 69˚F heading to 90˚ with clear skies.

Went to the fall orientation at the adventure farm and start hauling people next week. I was the oldest person re-hired and one of the few without a nose ring or tattoos.
The tractor route will be changed after the flood. It is going from a loop to an out and back route. As the owner said instead of a people mover to and from the back of the farm it will be an activity ride. The 4 wheel trailer really cuts corners so I'll have to really have a large un-obstructed turn around. I will be the first to try out the new route when the Fall Festival starts.

The Christmas trees are looking really good after the field was flooded with 4 feet of water. The tire mountain with the slides washed away but they recovered the tires and will rebuild it. They will still be rebuilding new metal fences during the Fall festival.

We have the same issue with "new" neighbors. Their dogs howl at times for like five minutes. Like a pack of wolves. Can be early morning, like 5 to 6AM, late night 11 -12AM. Various times during the day too. When the kids next to them go out to play, they are literally up on the fence lines barking. For as long as they see movement. Any movement, they are up along the fence lines in bark mode.

Went and talked with them a few times, as did other neighbors. No changes to behavior or situation.

This is the same neighbor that anothers tree fell over onto his property. Big tree. We asked if he wanted help moving/cutting moving it, it's huge....he said he has a coupon for a chain saw.
I kept my mouth shut, the other neighbor said "maybe you need to call someone". It's been months and it is still laying across his "yard". I see the root ball from my back property.

I got the impression this is their first "country" house. LOL.

LOL. Dogs are barking now....lol.
