Good morning!!!!

now Billie, look out for those bums from NC...
that is mighty fine looking salmon, bet it tasted wonderful.

I just realized I am 280 miles directly due East of Everything Attachments. Might have to drive across the state to pick up a rear scraper blade. I've looked at the local TSC and AgriSupply blades but for only a couple hundred more ETA makes what looks like a heavier duty unit. Am going to ask what my savings would be to come pick it up, though I know I'll have to pay sales tax then. The first thing I ordered from them when I just joined TBN was a disaster, a subsoiler that was amazingly scraped up when I got it.
That launched a big harangue about the state of implement finish, and Ted was very gracious and agreed with me. Well he agreed that an internet buyer had a much higher expectation of fit and finish than a local farmer.

So I figure if I drive over and get it, the paint job ought to look truly factory fresh, since they make the thing there. North Carolina made. I wonder if any of the steel is Chinese....I know he touts the cutting edge is US made. But why mention just the cutting edge if the whole thing is made from US materials? Hmmm, the plot thickens. Won't find out until tomorrow; for sure they are closed today.

40 this morning high of 56 later with rain developing thru Monday. Looks like some really warm temperatures on tap for first full week of January

71° now with fog, .25 mile visibility. Clearing and rising to 80 today as we spend the next four months in SW Florida.

We'll be visiting family today and watching some football. It looks like I will have to do some paver repair around the pool. I've had some settling of some dozen pavers since the home was built two years ago. Need to pressure wash the lanai as well.

50 heading to 56 and back to rain.

...

Here's the salmon, grilled on cedar planks - everyone loved it. Had a baked ham as well. Had 4 other dogs come to keep ours busy, too.

Today, have in-laws from NC coming.

I eat a lot of salmon and always wondered about the process and how it changes the taste or texture. What does it do? Is the cedar red or northern white cedar? Any other commentary on any of this?

37 in Bethel with a some light rain and very dreary. The high today will be about 40.

Got some more wood in yesterday...looks like the temperatures will be dropping quite a bit over the next few days. I'm glad I did because the rest of the wood piles are pretty wet right now...

Started coffee brewing. 40° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 57° with a few clouds today. Not much planned for today. Maybe some football.
txdon, not much to a golf cart seat. Some plywood foam and vinyl you could make something that will make getting on cart easier.
Good Morning All.
