If curious as to SS payment dates

Mostly tied to DOB.

Drew, have you looked into some sort of solar for the barn? Maybe not enough to actually heat, just keep above freezing? Even if just a portion you keep the freezables.

when they built this three stall horse barn they left almost two foot wide ventilation openings along the top of the wall, great for the summer, terrible for the winter, since they are at the highest spot and heat obviously goes out. I tried running a propane heater in there, 80k, but not good results. I haven't wanted to plug up the open areas in case the next owner has horses. The woodshop in the barn is well insulated and I run an electric heater in there occasionally over the winter to get the humidity out. That's where I put my small powerwasher over the winter, the big one is in one of those wire mesh trailers that is hand pulled (or behind garden tractor) though not as nice as Rick's cool trailer, and is too big to fit inside easily. It was easy to do today, just press the button for about ten seconds and pink foam squirts out the other end of the pump. Another couple of seconds and all done. Used up about half that can perhaps.

put away the garden hoses, chatted with neighbor, talked to him about a field of poppies next to him.
Garden Club has lots of left over poppy seeds from veteran's memorial, and I offered to plant a small field with what's left.
They will go at the top of the collards field and can be seen from the road. I hope it is pretty and somehow doesn't need to be
weeded.

David, I don't think I entirely understand that chart. I don't get SS, but my wife (birthday in December) gets a small SS check and it's been posting in our checking account on the 3rd of each month unless the 3rd falls on a weekend or holiday, in which case it's posted on the Friday before the weekend. It's been that way as long as I can remember, and our credit union shows it was deposited on the 2nd this month since the 3rd was a Saturday.

That's the way my check used to come. Only the 15th unless it fell on a holiday or weekend. Wife's birthday is 11th. Mine is 19th. I wonder when it changes.

Doing some research. It says the Wednesday payment started for anyone that started receiving after 1997. Unless they are getting SSI. Check the notes at bottom of David's link.

Mine and wife’s have always been 4th Wed, but usually mine will post to USAA bank before wife’s to local CU.

A couple years back I needed to make a cash deposit (small CL sale) to our joint CU account. They asked to see my ID. Told them I appreciated their security awareness but in future if anyone wished to make a cash deposit just smile and accept but to check any withdrawal attempts.

Electricity came back on about 20 min ago. Very nice to get back to normal.

Praying for those still waiting for normal. Ed

BTW, I thought y誕ll up there in the cold country had cleated-for-ice-house slippers for icy days.....

Good news. I was one of those stuck on Rte 70 for 4 hours on Thursday heading into Frederick. What a mess that was.

That was the good news ??? what was the bad ???

We bought a big sack of Thanksgiving groceries for a church wide effort to provide 50 families meals on Thursday. Our church bought the actual turkeys and got everything to the food bank yesterday.

Hopefully someone will have a better Thanksgiving day because of it.

Nice! Thanks for sharing with others Kyle.

Looks really good.
If you desire more practice I have a few hundred feet in need. Not high enough on priority list to get my attention in near future

Send your C-130 and I'll be over David. . If you send your C-17 .... I'll get there faster.

I've got an 84" Woods rear grader that makes short work of our ranch roads and driveways.

Iceman is taking care of my pain. No cleated slippers. After 12 years of traveling south for the winter. Cleats rusted off from not being used.

I have the exact same one in 60 inch. Boy do they do a nice job on gravel... We call them land planes up here.

Yep. Started out in Winchester to go to Frederick through Harper's Ferry. That was shut down, so I back tracked out 9 to 81N to 70... What should have been an hour took 8 hours... Thankfully, wifey had packed me a care package and it was all good... Hint... always carry a P cup. :wink:

I've also got a 96" Land Pride rear blade. It's gets used much less than the Woods land plane. We call them land planes here as well ...just couldn't come up with "the word" for previous post.
