Good (Tuesday) morning. Overnight Low was another balmy [for Winter] 7.0C with rain. It's currently 11.8C, cloudy with a breeze. There was 7.6mm in the gauge @ 0900.

Penelope the Pussybeast performed her 'mouser duties' last evening. Mind you, despite searching, I wasn't able to locate the carcass (thankfully whole) until this morning. Good girl!

I could nip into the PO today as I've a parcel(s) to collect. I ordered a couple of spare woodheater "cowls", or caps. Just to have a spare or two.

That's about it, take care all.

Coffee is cooling in cup. 48° with clear skies. this morning. Heading to 88° with a few afternoon clouds and winds. Got all my lawn chairs out and cleaned them all up with pressure washer. While cleaning chairs a Pallet Fork Safety Cage arrived. That was supposed to have arrived last Thursday. Assembled cage and checked it out on tractor. Had to do some moving around of equipment to make room for cage. That was enough for yesterday. Need to get some weed killer down today. May not get that done because of winds. Always things to get done if that does not work out.
Mrs Duck has found her mate. Looks like he had to work for his position.

Everyone stay well and safe.

Good Morning All.

good morning all, slept well, up early and enjoying first coffee.
like others, weather is warming up here, going to be low 80's today.
my only plans for today are to wash the car early this morning before sun gets too high.
Got distracted yesterday doing other things and that never got done.
Then will continue to load a few things back into rv for trip next week.

going to DE next Wednesday to visit my friends there, taking another mutual friend with me, she is going to stay
at my friend's home while I stay in the rv at the campground. Will be nice to have some company for the ride, which is a little over three hours.
it's an unattractive high traffic ride until almost at destination in DE. I did score a shaded site next to a permanent mini home, but boy are rv campgrounds expensive in Delaware. 90 bucks a night, about double national average.

I hope to do this trip one more time in the Fall, possibly staying over on Eastern Shore, perhaps near Rock Hall.
Then one other trip to Lancaster to visit other friends and honestly that's all the rv'ing i want to do.
if the motorhome doesn't sell, a trip to New England in summer would be nice.

Buckeye, hope you are making good progress on your porch.

Good morning, the low is 50 and going up to 81°F Wind SE 6 mph. Sunny!

I'll go to town today and rescue the spare key for the tractor and get my nuts tightened up at the same time. Then back here and I may knock down some trees, or I may sort the implements out and give there permanent homes. I think I have a couple of 10 inchers I can use for sleepers under the legs of the portable shelter. I am going to knock out the end part of the webbing of 8 concrete blocks and use them to hold the logs off the ground. Then anchor the shelter to the blocks. That should give me about a foot of clearance and create the gap I want for north to south ventilation for fumes.

Bank of Canada lending rate is currently 2.75%. Might be time to see what I can get a diesel gen set for.

Ron, I see that Miss Duck just turned herself into Mrs. Duck. Now she should start laying eggs. If you can find the nest, duck eggs are good eating. She will only lay x amount of eggs and then she will set on them until they hatch. The trick is to steal her eggs on a continuous basis so she never gets the chance to set on the clutch. 1 duck egg = 2xl chicken eggs and they are richer than hen eggs.

Breakfast time.

Have a safe day all

Forgot picture of Safety Cage on tractor. Neighbor and I are always using our FEL’s to do thing that requires someone getting up in bucket.

Good morning TBN!!
55 out and going to be a beautiful day. 80s and sunny with low humidity.

Mostly much needed yard work yesterday. It had gone by the wayside because of the bridge.
Also went and cut up tree on the trail. Quite a few more to do at the end of the property but they will need to wait.

Yard work still on the agenda for today.

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