Building Lake Corona

[dragoneggs]

If the forecast holds I should be good. No rain showing for the next 14 days. As long as we get some sun it should dry out.

Great news on the forecast. Use the time granted!

Yeah, looks like mostly sunshine. Throw in a little breeze and it'll eventually dry up for you. It's been so dry that the ground will suck up it's share of that moisture without evaporation.

Had to break through a little ice but was able to get the water out. Had just enough pipe left to extend the drain so I can finish up the dam. Also on a side note covid finally got me. Ironically the same thing that gave me time to start this project may be what gives me time to finish it up while I'm in quarantine.

Sorry to hear you got Covid. In the end I think most of us will. Hope you get thru it with minimal interference. Take advantage of the quarantine!!!!!

That tracksteer is a great machine. I can't get over how much you accomplish with it.

I think he will have a good excuse for a new one by the time he is done. !!

Surprised it hasn't happened sooner. Symptoms only lasted 2 days. Body aches and cold chills. Felt great on day 3 but have lost all smell and taste. I'm really missing those senses but does make eating healthier easier when it all tastes the same.

Good to hear... sounds like a mild case. BTW... (and maybe too personal to ask) but curious as to your blood type? My wife believes that Type A folks tend to get COVID symptoms worse than others.

Type O negative. Mine was pretty mild. Joint aches were pretty bad on day one but by day two I was on the mend. The smell loss was strange. Could tell something was happening as my nose felt really clean, almost like I was in a pool house too long and breathed in too much chlorine. Started in the morning on day 3 and smell was 100% gone by the end of the day.

Glad you're on the mend.

Glad you getting better!
I had a distant relative die from CV this week.
I’m type A so it worries me.

I have not seen ANY information to medically confirm the type A RUMOR!

Me either and didn't say so... just passing on heresy, I suppose. But better to understand potential than to be informed after the fact.

And maybe a smart way to distribute/allocate a vaccine vs other cockeyed proposals... I don't know? Sorry to stray the thread. I'm thinking Lake Corona will be filling as we debate... and next major construction will be late spring. Hope not. Love the thead.

Very nice progress on your project

Hope this COVID thing does not get you down too bad but sounds like you are on the mend

Hearsay? Sounds kinda funny as heresy though.

JK, curious to see how long those senses take to come back. Looking forward to more on the pond.

The definition of heresy is a belief or action at odds with what is accepted, especially when the behavior is contrary to religious doctrine or belief. An example of heresy is a Catholic who says God does not exist. Adherence to such dissenting opinion or doctrine. Adherence to such controversial or unorthodox opinion.

As nouns the difference between hearsay and heresy is that hearsay is information that was heard by one person about another while heresy is (religion) a doctrine held by a member of a religion at variance with established religious beliefs, especially dissension from roman catholic dogma.

Gentlemen... it was just a **** typo/grammar error, not paying attention. Late night posting gets me in trouble. But I do kind of like heresy... who knows, maybe it is applicable.

I was actually curious as to the difference. Had never looked it up before. After reading the heresy definition I vaguely remember my English teacher in high school talking about the differences.

I also looked it up
