Good morning!!!!

Good Morning!!!! 34F @ 6:30AM, still just outside Plymouth, CA. Sunny. High 61F. Winds light and variable

Used yesterday morning to find both wires broken going to the left driving light on my friend痴 motorcycle. The wire was hard and wouldn稚 take solder, so a couple butt connectors were crimped on and the whole mess wrapped in electrical tape. I suppose that was a nice Christmas present to him, me finding the break, but he also enjoyed the Don Julio tequilla after dinner, too.:laughing: Which was another rib roast, one he壇 been aging for a month in a special climate controlled refrigerator. It was delicious, but the slab of meat placed on my plate was more than I could handle and still leave room for the pecan pie dessert.:licking: A very nice Christmas dinner for all.

Gosh, Dab, I just had to wipe my chin! That roast looks very tasty!

Welcome and safe travels, Rye, I値l be joining you on the road in a few hours. Good weather for travelling here, and hope you have the same.

Hope they get the pain management down better for your wife, Rip. Bad enough being in a hospital without the nursing staff not doing their job right. And I hope you have a good visit with the doctor today, Buckeye.

15°F and clear skies this morning, going up to a balmy 19° today, then down into the single digits tonight. Looks like we'll be below freezing for the next couple of weeks, too.

The four-day weekend was very relaxing. I need to start checking in from home once in awhile, though. Took quite some time this morning to get caught up with this thread.

Hope everyone is well today.

Plugged the tractor in about 10 minutes ago...guess I'd better hit the drive again. Wind is a bit brisk, so we got some drifting. I think I'd rather be setting by the wood stove drinking some wine....alas, that'll be later. It's 19 degrees, definitely going to be more comfortable in the cab!

We got some snow Friday morning, about 1/2" at most, then the sun came out in the afternoon and melted most of it. We got some more Saturday, and it lasted on and off for most of the day, but only light accumulation of maybe an inch. Definitely nothing requiring the tractor yet. Stay warm, Roy.

Before you know it Roy mud and blackflies.

Bird, good luck today, hope it goes well with your wife, have experience with implantable stimulators. Reduced about half of my wife's nerve pain.

Well, since we are showing off JD's this morning, I have a family pic to offer from my friend in Delaware.
Not a really nice metal one like David's...can guarantee you which one will still be working in twenty years.

We bought our middle grandson that exact rig a couple of years ago, pretty well made. I also have a JD front end loader for the boys in my garage.

Rip, Buckeye, Ed, Kyle and all you guys, prayers for your needs.

Went to see a front end end loader in “excellent“ condition. It looked like the hammer brigade jumped on it, followed by the rust monster, then the seal eaters. That thing leaked, like a sieve, had more rust than a submarine and looked like it had been through the shredder.

As you can see grandson loved his new John Deere, keeping it at gram pas house so he can ride it in my basement until summer.

That's awesome.

My "first" tractor was one of these IH 856 cast iron thingies back in the late '60s / early '70s. Had it's own parking spot in the garage. After me, it got passed on to some younger cousins. No idea what ever happened to it.
