Good morning. A cold start to the day again -1C/30F. We can expect a few more days of hail, snow showers and brief glimpses of sunshine to see out the rest of April. Have run out of fire wood close to the house. There is plenty of dry stuff under cover, however most of it needs splitting. I got the axe out and did enough for one day the old way. That was enough nostalgia for this year, I will get the hydraulic splitter out today.


RNG - can you please do a temporary spray of undercoat ASAP ? Kyle has now gone and got us all thinking of cat puke when we see your Vanagon, which doesn't go too well with breakfast cereals. :laughing:



RS, as someone who has been heavily involved in trying to locate someone escaping from the police, I thought this story I saw yesterday may appeal to you :-

A group of children were out on an Easter egg hunt when they saw two men running away from the police. The men split up and ran in opposite directions. The children saw the police helicopter circling and looking in the wrong direction for the second man. Instead of jumping up and down and waving like a typical bunch of excited children, they lay down on the ground and formed a human arrow, pointing which way to search.

rain has finally arrived and it is pounding down, more than an inch predicted today and wow, look at next week, lot of precip coming.
I was going to move the travel trailer to a local campground today but now I'll just wait until tomorrow when the rain stops.
So it looks like an inside day the way the rain is coming down. Good day to finish fixing up my "new" office. So far I'm being good not to leave
new piles, but a piler not a filer I am.

Coffee is done brewing. 40° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 47° with rain. Made it home after all yesterday. Beat the rain. Need to recover from to many hours driving yesterday. MDOT seems to think closing freeways is best way to do repairs instead of doing one side at a time. Nice to sleep in our home after 5 months on the road. Lots of cleanup to do in the yard. Then get mower ready for first good day to cut lawn. It's 10" high in places.
David, best wishes for your dog.
Good Morning All.

highly recommend you see where you are on this map. Larro....you had better slather yourself with lots of bug spray. Though I think at your age you might not be fathering dozens of children any more, still best not to get bit by the "roach" of the mosquito family.

Welcome home Ron and David.

this is from another thread on a mildly controversial issue, a map of all the members. Voluntary of course, many folks want their privacy.
But if you want to participate, another member set this up. And now I know that Shropshire is South of Liverpool, so our good friend the Earl of Shropshire
must have grown up on the Beatles. Eric, you must have some tales to tell.

Good morning all. 58 going to 64 today and showers forecast for the next week. There was a quote from someone at the command center for the fire that said the fire season is over. I am very thankful for the rain, more for the firefighters than for me. I'll just have to mow grass but they can quit eating smoke 16 hrs a day. Going to turn in the signed contract for the house at the bank today for the new house. Other than that I am in the I NEED A NAP mode and hope to get one today.
David hope you dog is better soon.
The Earl of Shropshire be careful in the snow and thanks for the story.--->

You never know, I know of a guy back in the mountains many years ago that married a young wife. He was in his 50's and she was 16. They had a good long marriage and his grandson said they loved each other and had a good marriage. He fathered his last child when he was almost 70. Larro is not that old yet is he. Ed
