Good morning!!!!

[ronjhall]

Drinking first cup of coffee. 35° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 56° with lots of sun. All setup in a field next to my sons house in Moorseville, NC. Looks like nice weather for next few days. Going to NASCAR Hall of Fame in Charlotte today. Maybe tour a couple of car builder garages when we get back.
txdon, chilly weather and some sun is better than snow. Even if sun is shinning. I will bet those coyotes new Whipper was there.
RNG, oldest son lives in NC. Going to spend Thanksgiving with him. This adds a little over 400 miles to trip. Better than a round trip to his place from our home of 1200 miles.
RS, properly filing anything takes as much time as finding it when needed if not filed away properly. Don't ask how I know. :confused3:
Good Morning All.

Not great start to the day. Helped my wife today at her shop. A large dog grabbed my hand. Ended up in ER. No stiches, but lots of trauma. My hand is swollen up good, nothing broken, but it is surprising how much that hurts. I was out of the ER by 11. Short day but not for good reasons. Gonna sit around for today. Can't do much one handed....

Have a good one!

Ow, hope it improves now you are through the first night. If you hadn't told us you had been bitten, we would never have guessed - your one handed typing is great!

Good morning. I've had a touch of man flu these last few days and haven't felt like doing much. I was told a long time ago that looking after livestock keeps you going when you are feeling rough and the brief excursions outside to fill up the hay racks have certainly been clearing my head at times when I would otherwise have stayed indoors. I'm over the worst now and ready for some light work again (but please don't tell my wife that for a couple more days yet, or she will start adding to the list again ).

26 going to 52 and sunny.

300U, hope that hand is felling better.

Eric, "man flu" as apposed to maybe sheep flu?

37 feels like 33 no frost I can see but still dark. High going to 68 today. Have to go into town for a toilet rebuild, then home to meet the Vet. That might get me a little time on the tractor to clean out the new pasture from left over lumber and scaffold of the Run-in that the Horses don't use anyway. Cows like it.

RS, don't go there... trust me. Pick your battles and that one isn't worth it. I guarantee every home in America has one of those drawers.

Don, Whipper knew they were there, was just watching to make sure you were safe from them... yeah, right. There is some talk about putting a bounty on coyotes here. We have lost a couple of kids (the goat kind) to them over the years. I keep my "Golden Boy" by the back door to scare them and other varmints off.

Ron, I may be going to NC over Thanksgiving weekend. Have a friend up there for the Dixie Horse auction, and if they see a good draft that fits my wants they are going to call... have trailer will travel.

300, Why did the dog bite you? Where was the owner?

Eric, Hope you get feeling better soon. I guess I am lucky, my wife nags me to stay off my foot to let it heal, but there is just to much to do.

Speaking of Horses, I got a letter yesterday asking if I wanted to come back up to Ohio next summer to help teach driving school.

Good Morning. 0640, clear, 35F with 96% humidity. Forecast high of 64F with no chance of rain today, and a low of 47F tonight. There is a heavier frost this morning. I'm guessing all the peppers that didn't make the move into the greenhouse will have to be picked and used. Margie made a big batch of salsa a couple days ago, but looks like another batch may be in the works.

300uguy, hope that hand heals fast.

Eric, do they have a shot for that man-flu? Maybe something like this.

You guys have a good one,

Larro

hard frost here ,bye bye bugs...
28 going to 55 today, sunny day, no precip in forecast for a solid week.
Irv, hope your hand is better. Man's best friend...not that day.
Have a bunch of errands to do today, then pack to go to my brother's in VA tomorrow.
Where are all you guys coming to NC? Probably far West of me.
Ron, I'm waving wherever you are.

Hey, what about David/Mossflower's wedding? isn't that soon?

Jeff Bezos' rocket lands safely after space flight - Nov. 24, 2015

hot off the press and very cool.
and Don, if you had looked West, you might have seen it.
Well, I approve of the way my Amazon profits are going.
Personally I see space flight as the key to man's future existence.
Not sure we aren't going to ruin what we have here.
So we'd better have a vacation home...maybe one with twin moons.

32 this morning and headed to 58 today.

Got to go to most places yesterday. But didn't make it to look at guns. Well the dryer quit yesterday. So must go pick up new one today. Lowes couldn't deliver it till tomorrow and our son gets tubes tomorrow, so that was a no go. Then run to bank and pickup some parts for chicken coops. Wood stoves sure have gotten expensive. Got a price yesterday and it was almost 3k and I have the chimney pipe already. May go see TSC this weekend. Also now looking at gas stoves.

Drew don't know what ammunition I'll use. I'm wanting something to carry here on the farm. A snake gun that doubles as a varmint and predictor gun. Something quick to grab and not a long gun. I have those. Looking at stainless steel also.
