My carnival light (flashing orange LED) on top of the tractor quit working two weeks ago. Took the roof off today and found a loose connection, stuffed it back together and it is working again.

Re: beards. I haven't shaved for the past 16 years. I think shaving and haircuts are a colossal waste of money.

The parents were tested.

That’s important, especially purebreds with known genetic weaknesses.
We tested our boxers when breeding.

My son has hotel near Knoxville tonight, he left late and made too many stops. Been on the phone with him. He still has an hour to go.

Good evening all. 49ºF for the start, overcast, raining, .9 inch in gauge, light breeze. Lake has gone up about 4 inches since last rain, and low water crossing closed for about 4 hours today. Beard shaving, I have a moustache, shave 2-3 times a week. Would grow a beard for St Pats prior to marriage , had to shave when at lead smelter, never did grow it back due to how much it scratched her skin. Today was conserve energy day. Rain continued to late morning, and had 1 more wave during afternoon. Did get nap in but sleep too long, and rain had already occurred so everything was wet again.

good morning all
up too early
rain coming in around noon today

fun seeing my xmas lights up, made fun little color flashies coming through curtains.
I have a blow up Santa I'm going to fire up today, in my living room for a test.
I'm hoping it comes with tie downs or wonder how it keeps from blowing away.
Sure isn't going to stay in my tiny living room...

fake xmas tree comes upstairs today, hope to get a friend to help me decorate.
and then I might wrap some presents. All good inside stuff while it rains

when i found last year the cheapest smallest live cut tree anywhere in this area was 65 bucks, I bought a fake tree.
If I still had a tractor and PHD, I'd buy a live tree and plant it afterwards.

my winter beard is all white and I trim it at short setting. Only thing I don't like about beards is getting food in them, and
trimming hair around mouth is tiresome. Sure does keep me warmer though.

woke up sneezing and grabbing for tissues. Oh boy, hope it goes away.

Poured first cup of coffee. 35° with mostly cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 42° with good chance of rain. Got windows washed yesterday. Then put Christmas tree up. While put tree up noticed that front windows all have streaks in them. Sun was drying up water before I could squeegee them. Will be doing front windows again between rain drops. Going to be a conserve energy day after windows.
Thought squirrel was having a bad tail hair day. Nope, just laying in some small branches.

Prayers and best wishes for everyone.

Good Morning All.

good morning
Got the fire going good to make it comfortable before wife gets up. Cody already enjoying the heat next to the stove and fell asleep again.

not very cold out but the rain is coming our way soon
will be able to skip some watering for newly planted evergreen trees

The hunting laws for Maryland are very relaxed compared to many states. For the last 30 years none of our neighbors were hunting and this new neighbor wants to hunt his 5 acres that is open land except a small spit of land next to our property and houses. Sure hope he will use good aim and not get bullets coming our way. He is welcome to hunt but the idea that he has to do it right next to us is unsettling. He is relying on his deer feeder luring our deers over to his little piece of land where he can hide and shoot in our direction I might add. I was walking up to get the mail and was pretty close to his deer stand when the shot came. So he got one yesterday as it was close to getting dark. Two weeks left of the rifle season for deer hunting

49 going to 64 and rain, maybe an inch. We need it.

2 sons and 1 DIL still here, been enjoying time with them.

Did my planned dump run and hiked the battlefield forest to the river...seems like many other folks had the same idea: nice day, ate too much, let's go hike it off. Good collection of dogs, too. I had to rescue a box turtle off the road...thought they'd all be hibernating by now.

BEF, hope you're getting better...I know you want to get down to that land soon.

 

[Looking4new]

Good morning, the low temp was 36 and the high to 39°F. Wind SW 6 mph. Periods of rain mixed with snow.

I don't think I will get anything done today, my get up and go got up and went.

Pot roast for supper tonight.

Have a safe day all

Good Morning!

thank you God for another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly. . .

50F and raining here in Appalachia, rain allegedly ending in about a half hour.

we put in several hours of pulling vines and saplings ad moving rotted down trees yesterday. double leg log tongs works pretty good on the boom, but if I were to do it again I would get two signed log tongs and put them on a 3ft spreader bar. And the new brush grabber works well on stuff larger 1in. Pulled a fair amount just wrapping up with nylon sling straps. And, at the end, all that soil disturbance made pulling a lot of little stuff by hand very easy.

MrsKilroyJC decided she wanted to sit on the couch with the dog and her coffee mug instead of going to our town Christmas Tree aligning last night, after all that dirt work! But we will go to the Christmas Parade today, since it looks like the weather should be decent by this afternoon.

still trying to get the new chickens integrated with the old chickens Before the really nasty winter weather settles in. . .

have a wonderful and successful day, everyone!
