Just missed a prairie kingsnake two weeks ago here. Only one I've seen this year so far. They seem to like our pasture, and occasionally wander into the barn in search of a meal.

67°F and cloudy this morning, going up to 80°. More rain coming this afternoon and into tomorrow. Had a couple of small thunderstorms wake us overnight, but nothing severe here. Need to try to get at least the fenced in yards mowed today for the dogs to do their thing. Also, need to spend some...

Thanks, BEF. Been there for about a year-and-a-half now. Time sure does fly by these days. They keep me quite busy. All is not well at the "new" job, but we're dealing with it as best we can. About a month ago, we had an "IT Incident" (what we've been told to call it) that shut us down...

61°F and light rain this morning, going up to 77° here today. Rain started sometime Thursday evening, and has been off and on since. Forecast keeps changing, but best bet is it will do this through Monday. Rather windy as well, gusting up to 38-ish mph today. Probably no mowing this weekend...

Evening, Buppies. I'm fantastic! Thanks for asking BEF.

Condolences on your loss, Ken. Wonderful, though, that you got to spend so many years with her.

31°F and clear skies this morning, going up to 51° here today. Been awhile. Hope everyone is well.

More of a strawberry preserves guy, as well as H4895 and HP-38.

11°F and clear skies this morning, got up to 26° today, where it is now. We got about 4" of wet snow here yesterday. Sunshine all day today has started to reduce that. Warmer temps in the mid-40s tomorrow should put a bigger dent in it. Mid-60s by mid-week. Wife drove up to Chicagoland today to...

Savage has been putting Boyd's stocks on some of their models for a few years now. That one looks pretty nice. Congrats on the new rifle.

I got to meet Rick - and Chris Squire, Alan White, and Jon Anderson as well - after a show in St. Louis, back in '02 I think. Super nice guy. Rather tall guy. In fact, all of those guys were super nice. Only Steve Howe didn't make an appearance, as he's famously shy around strangers. Awesome...

31°F and clear skies this morning, got up to 47° today. Wind out of the north made it a little chilly. Wife finally started back into training this week. Seems everyone decided to forego any dog training until February. She was starting to worry about the lack of business. Now, of course, she's...

31°F and cloudy this morning, got up to 49° today. Cleared up a bit this afternoon, and got to see the sliver of moon in the western sky this evening. Drove into Highland earlier to pick up pizza and stuff, and it was pretty dead there. Wondered where everyone was... :ROFLMAO: Hope everyone...

The Savage MkII is .22LR. The Savage 93 comes in .22WMR or .17HMR. I have both the MkII-G in .22LR and the 93-G in .22WMR. While they are clearly not heirloom-quality rifles, they have both been very good to me. The MkII I've had for quite a few years, and long ago lost count of the number of...

27°F and freezing rain this morning, going up to 36° today. iThingie weather app says it's been snowing since 3am, and will continue to snow until 2pm. Nope. Only liquid water falling and freezing. The whole area is a sheet of ice (that pink area on your map, Drew). Fortunately for me, I'd...
