Good morning TBN!! Cooler 49 degrees this morning going to be about 70 with sunny skies. Good day yesterday. Record 82!
Wife took off with the dog for a few hours so I was left all alone. Fired up the NH and went to the pine I tried to push down. Thought maybe I could wrap a chain low and pull the root ball out from under it to let it drop. No go. I was just standing it back up. I think if I had kept going I could have pulled it over on me. I didn't test that theory. I'll get a winch on another tree and just pull it from the side off the tree it's hung on.
It dried out so I did some more leaf wrangling. Trying to keep a 400 foot ditch clear before it gets to wet to blow.
Despite the dog being gone I still got 11k steps in.
Got the relay in for my four wheeler so I installed it and tried to fire it up. No go. While troubleshooting I think I did something to the kill switch, so I will need to research how it works to come up with a plan. Can't find a direct replacement so I will need to improvise. That is on todays agenda. I want to make sure it's running for the winter. I have another older Artic Cat but it is only 2 wheel drive. And then 2 more toys on the agenda for projects. G'kids are hard on the toys!!

Coffee about done so time to walk the dog and get another day started.

Every one have a great and safe day??

Buppies: What are you hauling so much of? Personal or is that your job?

:)
34F clear sky day mid 40's for high.

Outside chores done E muffin time.
Yesterday afternoon winds were 30+mph around 4pm gusty winds 40-50mph and fir trees were no match for the winds,many tree tops snap off up rooted what mess :( loss power for 7 hours 2 tree crews and 2 electric crew were busy cutting running new power lines,call the neighbor inform them since powerline and trees were on there land and least 36 trees fell on our land upper field...we meet this afternoon...and of coarse Boo had check it out while the crews were working 🙄 couple of the crew guys felt uneasy as Boo watch from distance laying down....it was long night.

Plans for today 4 hours at part store,afternoon clean up branch limbs from the wind storm.

Enjoy your day all.

Thomas, sorry for the wind damage.
if I were a lineman, I'd think I'd be leery of Boo too...

should be a nice cooler day here today, off this morning to supermarket, then on to a friend who is a potter
and is having a show in Upper Makefield, not far from Ken's home. I try to buy a small flower pot from her each year.
We go back...she held me as a baby in her arms.

then home to putter in garage
I could do leaves, but just took a nice shower and really don't want to get filthy again today.
It's so dry the leaf dust just covers you.
So I'll wait another couple days till the maple in front lawn is done. Hopefully will rain tomorrow night and bring down rest of leaves.
and give our dying lawns some much needed water

50 going to 61. Feels nice outside.

Pretty glow on the horizon in the east now that dawn is here...I'll pretend it's the aurora.

Thomas, that's a terrible sounding windstorm. Glad you got your power back.

Yesterday was my mom's visitation at the funeral home. It was great talking with so many folks that knew her...I learned so much more about other parts of her life through their eyes. I had scanned about 100 photos for a slide show and picked out a nice classical music piece for the soundtrack. Everyone enjoyed seeing her from when she was a baby to more recent time...prompted even more memories and stories.
