Good morning,
18° now

Today 02/21
Some clouds this morning will give way to generally sunny skies for the afternoon. High 29F. Winds NW at 10 to 20 mph.

Tonight 02/21
Clear skies. Low 12F. Winds NW at 10 to 15 mph.

Quiet day yesterday but did manage to spend a little time clearing work bench and getting some card board boxes cut up and loaded into the truck for the next dump run. No real plans for today either, just take it as it comes.

Enjoy your day everyone
Stay safe and healthy

good morning all
should be a nice cold day today, 22 going to 34 today in sunshine.
I see walkway dusted with snow, will need to clean that off first, put down a little more ice melt.
otherwise no plans other than picking up car at detail shop later this afternoon.
tomorrow temps look like they are rising
I keep looking for forsythia buds, none yet, but soon I bet.

Ron, does all that pecking kill the tree by girdling it? or was tree dead?
I bet a dead tree is a standing bug condo

19 going to 41, and sunshine. Much of the snow melted...more today.

Thomas, homemade donuts sound good.

Buppies, glad your generator is working out. Still a lot of extra work and attention required.

Often, we complain about the IRS...easy to do...but I have a nice story...I needed to obtain a new taxpayer number (EIN). I looked into the process and got my info together. Then went online to their site and had the number and official IRS-generated letter via .pdf within 8 minutes.

Took Della hiking to the river...no one there so lots of explore time...walking on the dry shallow snow was like walking on soft carpet.

Good Morning from Central Texas,
At 4:50am, 30.9 degrees with dew point of 21.3. The weather will inhibit outdoor work today as forecast only mid 30's, which isn't that bad except for the wind and drizzle.

In 2024, the USAF helped Israel defeat the waves of drones and missiles launched by Iran. Several USAF fighter squadrons (mainly the 494th) deployed to a Middle East location launched F-15 / F-16 aircraft in response and reportedly downed 80 drones.

Good morning TBN!!
A cold 12 this morning. At least the wind has laid down. Going to the low 40s this afternoon with sun. Looking forward to 60s next week.
Spent the day puttering in the garage and gathering bits and pieces for my torch project.
Walked a little bit with the dog but a little bit too cold for me.
Plan today is to run to HF and get air over hydraulic bottle jack for my 20 ton press. And another free bucket. :)

Time for the second cup
Everyone have a great and safe day!!
