Good morning!!!!

Got a new battery powered clock mechanism for an old outdoor clock. It worked marvelously so now I can tell what time it is on the deck. On the cheap to $10 on amazon not too bad

Since snow is on the ground no work again maybe change oil in tractor is a good option tomorrow

Don, coons have been known to travel up to 75 or 100 miles to return to "home". Congrats on being med free :cool2: :drink:

RNG good luck starting the bike, I always had starting issues without strong spark!

Kyle first flat since changing to Schwalbe Super Marathons. However may have learned the trick to changing rear tire with fender :dance1:

Prayers for all especially for David and family, Ed and family, Rip and family.

Farmer, thanks for the corn lesson info. I did not know all that. They have planted corn here in the Brazos river bottom and it's already 6-8" high. Hope your family is doing well.

You’re welcome. I can believe that. Probably one of the first places in US to plant every year. Planters will start rolling here when soil temps get around 60*. Some maybe before. Oh how I miss row crops. Things have changed so much in the 8 years I’ve been away from them. Would love to get back into them some day.

Family is doing good. Oldest son is enrolled in kindergarten for the fall. He’s really picking up the speech device. Youngest son is starting to talk and is trying to be the biggest helper. That’s helping oldest to spit out a few more words but they are still sporadic. Oldest is as passive as they come. Youngest is a brawler. So far. Oldest has a foot and 30 pounds on youngest but you can’t tell the youngest that.

How’s yours?

You guys make me smile. And my spelling sucks.
Raggedy Ann was wife’s name for herself to her surgeon due to all four extremities and her pelvis being broken and she must have been floppy like a Raggedy Ann doll (rag doll) when she came into hospital. Her real name is Sophie and tomorrow she marks 65 trips around the sun. I am blessed with 33 of them with me.

On a bit late today...

No frost today and warmed up enough for my ears to not complain too much that heat loss mitigation for my head is only a cap instead of beanie hat.

5 million posts was on schedule until Ellen took Randy off for a little adventure.

David, 33 years should be more than enough for you to start each day with a huge grin of disbelief at your good luck when you wake up each morning. The way you write, we can all tell you found a real doll even before she became Raggady Ann. Happy birthday Sophie.

32 going to 49...should get a good start to melting the 5" of snow from yesterday.

Happy Birthday Sophie!

Went tracking for a couple of miles during the heaviest of the snow, but since it had started in the early morning, found only a few snow filled fox tracks. Did see a great horned owl fly out from a tall pine. Probably go back out this morning, but much of the snow clumps in the trees fell and pockmarked the ground snow, so the fields will be best.

Need to take wife to get stitches removed from 2 toes where she had bone spurs removed last week. Can't get it wet - she's only been able to take "bird baths" in the sink. Hoping she'll heal well and we can go to the mountains hiking for wildflower season.

Good morning all, 30 here going to 46 and partly sunny. Had about 8 in of snow yesterday and then the temp rose and it sagged.

Sophie, Happy birthday, Prayers sent your way for the pain.

LS, hang in there and take it easy, prayers headed your way.

Have a great day, prayers sent for all in need. Ed
