Good morning!!!!

ronjhall · Feb 17, 2021

Making full pot of coffee today. -16° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 23° with partly cloudy skies. Got my drive and walkways cleared of snow. Then 4 neighbors needed help clearing their snow. Turned that part of project over to Dr neighbor. He was all smiles. One neighbor was clearing his 400' drive by hand. Bet he will be looking for something Orange to get the job done soon. I still need to do some cleanup of my drive. Some of the drifts were 3'. But I can get in and out. Never made it to photo scanning. It will be on the list today. After working my taxes.
Wow! How deep is the snow?

Mostly, sorry about fridge. I be there are going to be a lot of them in TX from all the off and on power.

Kyle, good part of recovery is doing happy things. But do not over do it. Good picture of son riding in snow.

Rick, every time I see you Side By Side. It makes me think I should look into one to replace my Golf Cart. A Mule SX should fit my needs. But it must have a windshield.

LS, finding one place to live year round in mainland USA would be difficult when weather is one of the main concerns. Having traveled for many years during the winter. I like my trips to south Texas and AZ. But the summer months could be brutal. Today one of my major concerns with a place to live is access to medical care. Looks like I found the right place 50 years ago. I try to only make appointments with Dr's that are within 10 miles of my house. Glad you are getting off meds.

Everyone stay safe, healthy and warm.

Good Morning All.

Good morning! 0 now, supposed to make it to 23 today. Snow in the forecast for tomorrow. 10 day forecast has some temperatures near 40.

rs - Betsy Kling is still on Cleveland TV? I watch 8, they seem to have decent weather forecast in the morning. And Melissa Mack in the evenings.....she gets into the weather forecast....quite entertaining.

Cleared the sidewalk with the shovel last evening. Didnç¨š bother with anything else. It is crunchy when walking around with the snow over the ice. With the forecast, a lot will be gone next week.

Phones have been quiet at work...other than calls about auction machines :thumbdown: Billy Bob buys an auction special for just over scrap value, then wants tech help to fix it for free because they canç¨š afford new parts that may not even be available anymore. And usually the machine is so old, no one was around when it was new, or in my case, have forgotten how it functioned. What a PIA.

Covid cases are way down locally and in the state.

Sounds like we are gonna gain a couple of emus for the flock. Wife has found someone locally that has a breeding pair and is likely gonna get some eggs to hatch. This should be interesting. Wonder how Oscar the Friendly Goose will handle competition?

Everyone that is dealing with power and heat issues, you are in my thoughts.

Everyone stay safe out there

Squirrel looks like gopher on Caddy Shack

Mostly no never went down there strong aversion to news media. Environmental people still come and check pond daily nice mineral oil sheen on top

That second thing in Texas is headed our way but the models do not have a handle on it yet. Huge ice storm 3/4 in to 4 inches of sleet to 3 in of snow only the shadow knows

Did not get to saw up trees yesterday too wet for tractor our forest looks like a war zone

Sorry for all of those suffering thru this brutal winter in the south prayers sent

Prayers for all

Prayers for our Country

25 outside heading to upper 30's. It was a mud festival yesterday moving stuff around. Wife has new boarders showing up today, so I need to get another 500 feet of temp fence up. I hope the ground cooperates. LOL. I thought I was done with fencing, guess not.

ronjhall - Neat pic. I can recall deep snow here a few times many, many years ago. Drifts of six feet against the barn doors. I recall having to shovel my way to the tractor shed. LOL.
I'd rather have snow than ice. And the weather people are freaking out about another storm moving in with major ice tomorrow. So today, I will fill up the gasoline containers and load up on cheap canned foods. Stews and anything that can be heated over the wood stove.

Hope all are dealing with their weather issues in a good way. Stay positive.

Have a great day all. Be safe and stay healthy my friends.

Ron, wonderful squirrel picture. Good timing!

Good Morning
21 with a high of 30 and clear skies. Snow overnight and tomorrow.
Yesterday actually got up to 50 with sunshine. Then the cold winds blew in.

Yesterday’s move went well, got a little speaker work done as well

This morning I’m off to Ft Meyers via Atlanta, good news is I’ll be back in Philly before the snow. Bad news is head wind over 100 KTS to Atlanta. Only about 30 going to Ft Meyers, and hopefully 70 or so tailwind heading north to Philly.

Great squirrel picture Ron. Was it actually tunneling through the snow?

Still not vaccinated.

Good morning. 34 here in the Pee Dee area of SC. Beautiful day yesterday and supposed to be nice today. Rain starts up again tomorrow. Just in time because I saw a spot in the yard not covered with water yesterday. Just thought I would post up pics of the first of the 2 140s. I'm still convinced I got the best of that deal.
