It has been snowing for the past 2 hours or so. We've got about an inch. More to come later. There is one thing about our snow that is almost guaranteed... It will be all gone by labour day weekend. 🤣

Good morning, low 4 and high to 14°above. Wind ENE 15 mph. periods of snow. None so far. Temperatures will be a roller coaster ride this week. I've been tracking the snow that Ohio is supposed to get, mainly because I will be getting something from that system, too. Looks like Toronto and...

The more horses you put in the barn, the warmer the barn gets.

Fuddy1952, that Nova with a 350 in it should go like a raped ape. ;)

You guys getting the snow that you don't normally get, stay safe. If it is not a life and death situation then there is really nothing to go out for.

PJ, bagpipes will fix him up pronto. :devilish:

Yes I have walked out of the house with my fly down. My ex-mother-in-law used to point the error out to me and say, "can't get up, can't get out".

Good morning, low -7 and high to 14°F. Wind S 7 mph. Cloudy. She's warming up. Was -24 overnight. On the knobby knee survey, mine are 20" each circumference. As for the pain, I have CBD oil and other stuff that was only legalised a few years ago, trouble is I cannot afford an impaired driving...

If you are really adventuresome, try Kahlua and a beer chaser. I can get 4 shots of Kahlua into me over the course of 1 beer. A shot of kahlua and a mouthful of beer.

2013 Dodge Journey Crew (Canadian package) came with block heater. I won't have a vehicle that doesn't have a block heater. I have the heater plugged into a remote so I can turn it on or off from the nice warm kitchen. Remote start is a huge bonus. The Kioti has a block heater as well and set...

On the dram and ginger beer, take a big ol mouthful of Dram and chase it with a sip of ginger beer. Limes are for sailors, mostly Limeys. 🤣

My caar sits in a portable shelter (keeps the snow off the car and that is about it), I turn the block heater (from the kitchen) on 5-6 hours before I need it. Remote start it and drive off 10 minutes later. I also set my heater blower on max and the heater set to 80°F. (It is set to automatic...

Just make sure you DO NOT get the Dram in a plastic bottle. If you don't drink it all up in short order the plastic will turn the Dram sour and extremely bitter.

Good morning, low temp -22 and the high will be -8°F. Wind NNE 8 mph. Sunny. The DIL asked me yesterday why they put up the extreme cold warnings, when people know full well that it gets cold in the winter. This IS Northern Ontario. I told her that the warnings were mostly for the immigrants...

Good morning, low temp is -14 and high to -4°F. Wind N 14 gusting to 23 mph. Sunny. With the one chain missing on the steering axle, I just kicked it out of 4 WD and kept on plowing. I have the chain and a second one as well. It just needs to warm up enough for me to put it on. Neighbour...

Good morning, low temp 4 and going to a high of 14°F. Wind E 7 mph. 30% chance of flurries. This morning I need to go out and scrape the 2 or so inches off the driveway along with my two neighbours. This afternoon will be a town run, then conserve energy. Have a safe day all

Good morning, low temp 20° and the high to 23. Wind SW 7 mph. Periods of light snow, none so far. I guess I will not be putting the chain back on today, too cold for my arthritic hands even with gloves on. An energy conservation day for sure. Have a safe day all

Eric, I too have a moisture meter and I have found that IF the meter registers anything below 20% the wood is good to burn. Checking on the cut ends and the bark falling off is also a good indicator. Right now all my wood registers at less than 5% moisture. My indoor woodpile is about 20' from...

Good morning, low temp -29°F and high should be 12. Wind calm. Periods of light snow today and tonight. None so far. I got up a few minutes ago to a nice warm house. The downstairs/basement wood furnace needed wood and so did the upstairs one. They are both cooking right along now. While...

The temperature right now is -13°F and it is going down to -26F overnight. A tad cool. My tractor does NOT get fired up in those temperatures. I plowed this morning just to clean up the banks.

Good morning, low temp -1 and going to a high of +1°F. Wind WNW 9 mph. Mainly sunny. I will be out plowing this morning at 9 a.m. Block heater is already turned on. Motor will probably take two preheat cycles this morning. It will start after one, but might as well keep it happier with two...

The DILs suicide is off for now. Good thing. Junior can now save some money to cover the funeral cost$. No North Bay trip tomorrow and that suits me just fine. My age? 9 months and 6 days short of 76.

Good morning, low temp 24 and high to 30°F. Wind S 13 gusting too 19 mph. flurries. I never trust the weatherman when he says 'flurries'. Many a morning after a 'flurries' forecast the night before I woke up to 16" of flurries on the ground. Yes, it is infuriating when people say that they have...

Wouldn't the smart thing be to cancel church all together tomorrow?

kenmbz, have you tried bamboo pillows?

Buppies, I went to bed at 10 and one of the cats woke me up at 2 and my bladder told me that the bed was going to get VERY wet if I didn't get up at 3 A.M. 🤣 , so I got up and stayed up.

Good morning, low temp is -20°F (colder than a well diggers butt) and the high is going to be 19 on the plus side. Warm enough to snow. Wind calm. Forecast says snow today, tonight and tomorrow. The kitten that goes outside every day, went out yesterday morning and 5 minutes later was back...

Good morning, low temp is -3 and high for the day should be 5 above zero. Wind N 8 mph. 30% chance of flurries. daugen, I have found through the school of hard knocks that IF people get something for free, they tend to not look after it. If they have some money invested in the same free object...

Good morning, low temp 3 and high to 7°F. Wind N 15 gusting to 22 mph. 60% chance of flurries. We got about 4 inches or so from the last dusting, I will go out at 9 A.M. and plow that off. We don't seem to be getting the big dumps like we used to get. I just did the math this morning and I...

Good morning, low temp is 23 and going to a high of 32°F. Wind E 13 mph. Snow at times heavy. There is a weather advisory in effect. I think the weather advisories should read; "this is Northern Ontario and winter, you might get snow, freezing rain or straight rain." The snow I was expecting...

I remember Barbasol quite well. Until I found a good source for cake shaving cream that is the stuff I used until I stopped shaving. Shaving, like haircuts are both a waste of money.🤣🤣🤣

Good morning, low 22 high 25°F. Wind SW 8 mph. 40% chance of snow. Tonight and tomorrow we will be getting dumped on. Woodchuckdad, if you think the noise from snow plows scraping bare pavement is loud, try driving one. It is even louder in the cab unless you have a really good stereo. :eek...

Good morning, low temp -12 and high to 18°F. Wind E 3 mph. 40% chance of flurries. There is nothing on my books for today so I think I will conserve energy. Re dogs chasing chickens; chickens are considered livestock and any dog that harasses them can be 'put down' by the livestock owner...

Zero°F is what they are calling for here. Only an eighteen degree difference between Texas and Northern Ontario.

Happy New Year, low temp 17 and going to a high of 19°F. Wind N 13 gusting to 25 mph. 30% chance of flurries. Over the next couple of days we will be going down into the deep freeze, then it will warm up and snow. (y) We are cooking a ham for supper tonight, probably with roasted potatoes and...

Another uneventful trip to North Bay. Those are the trips I like even though the city was a zoo. Caught up to a 579 Peterbuilt with straight pipes. Music to my ears especially when he cut in the Jake.

Tonight I most likely be in bed by 10. IF nature does call as she usually does 2 hours after I sack out then I will see new years in, other than that it will be about 3 AM when i get up. Off to North Bay. Catch you all later.

Good morning, low 18, high to 32°F. Wind ESE 5 mph. 70% chance of flurries. I might be going to North Bay today, but I am not sure yet. The salt came yesterday, 8 40lb bags of it. 4 in the softener and 4 for refills. The delivery driver said that thanks to covid he wouldn't take it downstairs...

RichB1, your cats and mine have something in common. Mine disappear when anybody comes to the door.

Good morning, low and high 23°F. Wind NW 13 mph. 30% chance of flurries. Not much on the books for today. Salt supposed to be coming for the water softener, if it comes early enough then I will go to North Bay. If not then NB will wait until next year. I have a maintenance contract with...

Ours are on 'free feed'. There is always dry food available. I think it was a messy litter box and he REALLY wanted to go out. Ain't gonna happen. Fishers in area.

Good morning, low temp 14 and high to 30°F. Wind ENE 11 mph. 30% chance of flurries. One of the two kittens I got last winter is now 18 lbs and super vocal. Little bustard got me up at 2 A.M. Don't know why, all I know is he was howling something loud. He finally shut up after he had me wide...

Good morning, low temp 22 and high to 28°F. Wind WSW 8 mph. 70% chance of flurries which are happening as I type. I slept in today, usually up att 5 A.M. not today, didn't get up until 6:45. It is a good thing I have an oil furnace to take up the slack when the woodstove dies down. The bad...

I've got a Husqvarna battery operated chainsaw that I like very much. It is the first battery operated anything I have bought and used. I think it was about $675.ooCDN but I am not sure now.

Good morning, low temp is 2 and high to 19°F. Wind ENE 7 mph. Light snow. A couple of inches expected. We'll see. I am going out to plow off the driveway this morning and try to get the frozen slush moved. The Queens message paid tribute to Prince Philip, she never mentioned the California...

Good morning, low temp 18 and high going up to 19°F. Wind N 11 mph. Cloudy. I remember in other years where I tried scraping the wet, sloppy snow off the driveway and made a colossal mess with ruts about 4" deep to fill with snow at the next snowfall, so I opted to leave it alone. The three...

Merry Christmas all!

Freezing rain in the forecast for tomorrow. I may scrape the driveway with the BB turned backwards and angled to the right. Depends on how much we get. Happy Birthday Mrs. BEF.

Good morning, low 16, high 30°. Wind E 11 mph. Cloudy. I don't know where the snow went, but we didn't get any of it. :mad: I didn't do the dump run and like Roy, it will wait until Tuesday/Wednesday or when I get aroundtuit. Gotta get into town today and get the stuff that got forgot...

Eric. Thanksgiving for me was in October (Canadian), so I am more than ready for another turkey. I prefer turkey once in any month that ends in a (r). Specialty foods will include a sweet potato for me and roasted potatoes for the others. We may have brussel sprouts but I am not sure. No desert...

Good morning, low 6 and high to 21°F. Wind calm. 70% chance of snow this evening. I've got a dump and town run today, then conserve energy. Have a safe day all

If I had a choice, I think I would go for stitches. Those I can remove myself, as long as I can see them.

70% chance of snow tomorrow and tomorrow night. Long range says snow on Christmas day.

Good morning, 19 going to a high of 25°F. Wind WSW 13 gusting to 21 mph. Snow. I guess I should turn the block heater on. There is only 1.5" of the stuff, maybe I will let it lay, there is more coming tomorrow. I think I am going to have a white Christmas. All I want for Christmas is a...

Good morning, low temp 16 and high to 19°F.ind WNW 8 mph. Snow. Tomorrow there is going to be about 10" to plow off after I plow the snow from yesterday. We got about 5" yesterday, I will plow that off today. It is a funny thing, for the past 5 years, the weatherman says 2-5 cm (centimetres)...

Good morning, low temp is 16 and high to 30°F. Wind SSE 9 mph. Periods of snow. I'm not sure what I will get up to today, so might as well conserve energy. Have a safe day all

sodamo, shudder some more. There is snow in the forecast for the next 5 days starting with tonight and tomorrow. About 2" but that will change. The weatherman here always understates what we will get. You guys doing the knee operations make me cringe. I still remember the torture when I laid my...

Eric, a good cat will look after the Jays. Just do not feed the cat yourself. It wants to eat, it can hunt. popgadget, I've been watching Matt for about a year now. Some interesting recoveries. Fab Rats is good too. Sometimes he helps Matt.

Good morning, low 5 high to 10°F. Wind N11 mph. 30% chance of flurries. We've gotten about 2" overnight. I will go out and scrape it off at about 9. Block heater plugged in at 6. I dumped the bag of watersoftener salt into the unit this morning while the woodstove was restarting from coals. I...

Good morning, low temp 16 high to 19°F. Wind NE 8 mph. 60% chance of flurries. Junior did a good job of getting the downed tree out of the driveway. It is a little long for where I want to put it and the wrong orientation, but I will chain it to the loader bucket and turn it then stuff it into...

Good evening, we lost power yesterday about 1 P.M. and it just came back on a half hour ago. The high winds took out the power wires and probably some trees came down on them too. I thought I had more ethanol free fuel than I had. Genny almost ran out. Junior told me when he refuelled it at 9...

No, I don't read books.

I stumbled on this you tube video and it is fascinating. The fore runner of the US space program.

Good morning, low temp is 44 and the high will be 52°F. Wind SSE 13 gusting to 20 mph. 40% chance of showers or drizzle. Happy Birthday, Rich! Another energy conservation day. Have a safe day all

Happy Birthday, PJs wife.

Good morning, low 27 high to 37°F. Wind E 15 mph. Freezing rain or rain. They say 2 mm which equals 0.0787402". The trouble comes when you consider that is on top of the ice that is on the driveway now. I am not planning on doing anything that requires me to be outside. Energy conservation...

Good morning, low 24, high 28°F. Wind N 5 mph. Sunny. A town run is in the cards today, then conserve energy. mostly, I plow myself and two others on my road. Both of them together aren't as large as my place. The two 4" snowfalls took about 2 hours including warm up and cool down time. I...

I have a sort of unwritten agreement with the plow guy that does my dead end road. If I see him coming and I haven't gotten to the mouth of the driveway I will wait for him. You know the drill, get out stretch my legs, check that the wheels haven't fallen off, take a p. If the driveway is...

Good morning, low 35 and high to 41°F. Wind SW 8 mph. mainly sunny. I have no clue what the pam will do at 40, mainly because at that temperature I don't plow. The City of Toronto wanted their roads cleared from curb to curb (the contract said so), then they bitched because the snow would go...

Good morning, low 28 high to 41°F. Wind WSW 15 gusting to 21 mph. A mix of sun and cloud. Next Friday the daytime temps will get down below freezing again. We dodged most of the freezing rain bullet. We also didn't lose the power, a few flickers but that was it. Today I will go out and clean...

Heavy rainfall and freezing rain warnings have ended. Y I P P E E! Still have to put up with the sloppy mess in the driveway. IF I can keep vehicles off it, then all will be good.

Thomas, the jam gets all over my beard and I cannot 'do' milk, so it is straight p-butter for me and water. I gotta use brown bread because there is no white.

Good morning, low temp 32°F and the high should be 48. Wind ESE 24 mph. Rain :mad: High winds predicted for later today. Sure hope they stay ESE. We got a rainfall warning, a freezing rain warning and a 'special weather statement'. 40-55 mph winds coming later this afternoon. Ought to be...

Love the tote. That is me for sure.

Usually around 6-10". 4" is a pita. I gotta keep my place clean for emergency services, so I pretty much have to plow every day. Tonight we will be getting snow after midnight then changing to freezing rain, then to rain with high winds. :mad: The only thing I hate about winter up here is the...

daugen, I never took out a mail box UNLESS you put your driveway snow on my road that was already running water. I would take them off even with the ground so you would have to replace the post, too.

Good morning, low temp 21 and high 34°F. Wind ESE 13 mph. 40% chance of flurries. There was another 3" came last night, so you all know what I am doing this morning. That makes 10" in the past three days. I will go out at 9 and plow this place, that'll take me until 10 and I'll still make my...

If the CFO approves it then you are good to go. (y) Why is the site double posting our posts?

Good morning, low temp is -3°F and the high is forecast to be 18. Wind ESE 3 mph. Sunny! Block heater for tractor is on and I will be warming it up at 9 A.M. to plow another 3" of fluffy white snow. Ron, be thankful that you have garbage/trash collection at all. Our cans might last longer but...

kenmbz, be thankful the drums are NOT bag pipes. :eek: Regarding snow; scraped 44" off the driveway yesterday (Tuesday) and another 4" today. I expect at least 4" tomorrow morning. So far since January 1, 2021 I have used 38 gallons of fuel in the tractor mostly plowing snow. It takes about an...

Good morning, low temp 13 high 23°F. Wind E 6 mph. Flurries. So far there is an additional 2" on the deck from yesterday when I plowed. Furnace oil came. 1.36/Litre = $5.15/US Gallon This stuff is supposed to be tax free, but on the delivery slip there is 'carbon tax' $47.46 + 'HST' $69.36. I...

Good morning, low 1 and high to 10°F. Wind WNW 2 mph. Sunny! A tad cool. Cold to me is when the temps hit -40F. The snow I scraped off yesterday had about 1/8" of crust on top, so I would hazard a guess that was our freezing rain. More of the same next Saturday says the long range forecast...

This morning I scraped 4" of snow off the driveway and two neighbours as well. I got back about 11 A.M. and at noon it started snowing again. I will be going out at daybreak tomorrow. There is another 4" to do tomorrow. I have the oil truck coming sometime after 10 A.M., I called them and told...

PJ, according to Jeff Foxworthy You might be Canadian if you had the car's heater on in the morning, and the AC on in the afternoon. :D ;)

Good morning, low temp 22 and high to 41°F. Wind ESE 21 mph. They are talking 8-10" so far and changing to rain. There are 4" on the deck rail, so I know what I am doing this morning. IF I leave it then the rain will turn the driveway into a sloppy mess. If I plow it then the mess will be...

The Nokians are only $268.72/tire. Michelins are $280.95/tire at Kal Tire up here. I will suffer with what I have for the rest of this winter, next summer I will look for a set of Michelins x-ice tires. They do come in 19" rim.

daugen, I've got snows on the Dodge as well and I am NOT happy with them. 6" of snow and the dam thing is stuck. I gotta remember to switch off the AWD if I want to go through the snow. Oh what I wouldn't give for a set of Firestone directional snow tires. Trouble is they are bias ply tires...

Good morning, low temp is 15 and the high will be about 19°F. Wind W 2 mph. About an inch of snow coming today. Tonight and into Monday they are threatening us with about 6", a far cry from the original 10 from the other day. I looked at the weather radar map and it looks like Michigan and...

Good morning, low temp 15 and high to 28°F. Wind ESE 11 mph. Periods of light snow and it is snowing now. We could have up to 10" by this time on Tuesday IF you believe the forecast. I've got a town run to do this morning, whenever Junior is ready to go. Up till then, conserve energy. Have a...

Good morning, low 8 and going to 14°F. Wind NW 7 mph. Sunny! While I was Northwest last summer I saw a bunch of those cranes on the ditch side of the road. Trouble is, I don't remember exactly where I saw them. I have 2 vehicles that I drive regularly and don't put 6,000 miles on either of...

Something tells me he/she is not a cat you want to mess with.:eek:

daugen, you need one of these IF they are legal where you are pictures of switchblades - Google Search About 60 years ago I had a switchblade knife. Town of Whitby, ON cops got it:(, they ripped me off for it:mad:, but didn't lay charges. Lucky me.:giggle:

My only complaint with my CK27hst is that I should have gone to the 35 or 40 so I would have A/C. The heated cab works good. I plow snow in a T-shirt and thermal shirt over that.

Good morning, temp is 23 and will be going up to 39F. Wind E 5 mph. 40% chance of rain or snow showers. I am glad I put the snow tires on last Saturday. It is just about time to drop the hoe and pick up the back blade. A town/dump run is on for today. Maybe take the BH off today, maybe not...

Going down to 19 tonight. brrrrr

Update on my weather, we got a half inch of sn*w last night.

Good morning, low temp was 27 and the high will be 36°F. Wind NNW 1 mph. Mostly cloudy. I believe today will be an energy conservation day. Have a safe day all

Good morning, low 32 high 42°F. Wind NW 3 mph. Partly cloudy. I got my pressure gauge yesterday, $47.oo for a 3,000 psi one, already rigged to test the pressure in my hydraulics. Now to find the relief valve. Have a safe day all

Good morning, low temp was 29 and the high will be 47°F. Wind W 9 mph. Sunny till noon then clouding over. 2% chance of rain. A trip to the hydraulic shop is in the cards for today, then in the opposite direction to see what the lead time is on a new Z-turn mower. Have a safe day all

Good morning, low temp 42 and high of 50°F. Wind NE 2 mph. 60% chance of showers. I think today will be a conserve energy day. Have a safe day all

Roy, are you getting to the point when we have to get you a fiddle/violin?

2012 CK27hst with 958 hours and no major breakdowns. 2 warranty items that were looked after at the house.

Good morning, low was 45 and the high will be 49°F. Wind WSW 9 mph. 68% chance of rain. North Bay trip was uneventful, more or less. Lots of tracks where people have run off the road, but that is normal. No blood puddles where moose have been hit, so that is a good thing. Tire swap today and...

I got back right on the stroke of 3:30 P.M. Took 30 minutes and rewired the trailer plug. Tomorrow morning early I go to swap summer tires for snow tires. After that a trip to Burks Falls for some home made fudge.

Good morning, the low was 36°F and we are going to a high of 41. Sunny. 2% chance of showers this morning. Normally I use environment Canada for my weather but that site is having a problem this morning so I switched to weather.com. Although we had had a couple of heavy frosts, one hard enough...

I'm basing this thought on Kubotas' work around. A 'T' fitting on either end and connected on the pressure side of the loader lift arms with a smaller line? ie. 1/2" down to 1/4"

IF you set the loader on LEVEL ground then it is a piece of cake. The hard part is putting the harness on for the blower. It is heavy. First attempt should take two men about an hour to do. I don't know if it is any different than on my CK.

Good morning, the low was 40 and the high should go to 52°F. Wind ENE 13 mph. Sunny! A dump run is in the cards for today. One of the good things about retirement is that jobs that don't get done today can and will wait until tomorrow. Have a safe day all

He can give my DIL his excess white cells. Hers are too low. It is like pulling hens teeth to get someone that speaks English. I have two satellite radios, one on a two year contract and the other one somehow got put on a monthly contract. I cancelled that one today and got a confirmation...

Good morning, the low is 42 and the high will be up to 54°F Wind NNE 8 mph. Sunny! Today will be a good day to do the trailer wiring. We do container gardening and today will also would be a good day to put them to bed for the winter. They overwinter in the old chicken house. There is also a...

The "New Canadians" are taking over the gravel haulage, in southern Ontario

Good morning, low was 36°F and the high will be 43. Wind N11 gusting to 19 mph. 60% chance of rain/snow mix. We found a small engines guy that will look at the power washer before I return it to the people that sold it to me. He is running two weeks behind, but he can have it today and when he...

Good morning, the low was 39°F and going to 48. Wind NE 11 gusting to 19 mph. 30% chance of showers or drizzle. Off to town today and possibly get the hydraulic pressure test gauge. The wood conveyor is put to bed for this season. That was the biggest fall job I had to do. All the rest are...

Thje firewood is in the basement, all of it, finally. It had started to spit rain and I offered Junior the chance to quit, he vetoed that and came went the house soaked. I was in my cab, so other than oiling the conveyor and setting the trap on the motor, I was as dry as a popcorn fart. It is...

Good morning, low temp 37°F and the high will be around 43. Wind SSE 7 mph. Showers. We've still got wood outside, about 1/3 of a cord and it is right in front of the oil tank. That will be moved before the end of this week. Yesterday while we were putting the wood in I saw a few snowflakes, so...

mostly_: I haven't tried it on any games yet, but I will right after I post this. It seems to be better than the old one that is now in the recycling bin.

Good morning, the low temp was 34 and the high will be 48°F. Wind SSE 9 mph. 30% chance of showers. I got nothing done yesterday...It rained most of the day. The rest of the wood may be going in today, then I need to pull a couple of burdock plants out. I have the lower swing grease zerk on...

you mention that 't' word and I cringe. I can't imagine getting the plumbing chopped off.:eek::eek::eek::eek:

Good morning, low temp 29°F and high will be 41. Wind NNW 6 mph. Sunny! Got down to 27 overnight. The rut starts. I think I will be putting the rest of the wood into the basement today, I may get to the trailer plug wiring as well. That should only take about an hour. I am replacing the...

Bird, you need more squirrels and chipmunks.:)

I had the hose pumping water into the pw before I tried to start it. after it stalled it was really hard to turn over again and impossible to start.

Good morning, low temp 43°F and the high will be 48. Wind NNE 7 mph. Rain. No firewood going in today. I guess I am not supposed to own a power washer. The replacement for the one I bought in the Spring fired up, but stalled after 15 seconds and was uber hard to pull over. Called the store and...

Good morning, low temp is 44° and going to a high of 59. Wind calm. Increasing cloudiness. Welcome to the 'good morning' thread Rebeccaharris01. I got my busted off grease zerk replaced yesterday, and now that I have a free day more or less I will try to replace the zerk on the lower swing...

sodamo, floor is looking good!

I am not a great fan of open grid bridges, but that being said I am definately NOT a fan of bailey bridges either. There are quite a few of them in Northwestern Ontario that I have to cross with the train, grossing 140,000 lbs.

Good morning, low 37° and high to 64. Wind WNW 6 mph. Sunny! We got frost last night. A dump run and more wood to go into the basement today. This should be the last of the wood. The grease zerk kit came in yesterday and I replaced the broken one immediately. I have a couple of other ones I am...

Good morning, low 39°, high 52. Wind NW 8 mph. 30% chance of showers. Now I know for a fact that the weatherman is a liar. It is pissing down rain. So that would be 100% chance of rain. Got some more wood into the basement. Putting the wood in with the conveyor has a learning curve, but it is...

Good morning, low 43°F and the high will be 54. Wind WNW 8 mph. 60% chance of showers. A dump run is in the works for today and then more wood to go into the basement. There is about a 15-30 minute job he needs to do for his old lady, (he will stretch that into 2 hours). Then onto the wood. His...

We've got Princess Auto, but I ordered my kit off amazon. Don can't be any worse than a former President of yours. After spending a day and two nights in Pickle Lake, ON last summer I think I know what you are going through on a smaller scale. The smoke was brutal. A couple of majour fires...

Good morning, low temp 53°F, high 55. Wind N 6 mph. Drizzle with periods of rain. What is the difference? Still wet. It might be nice looking, but not 20 grand worth of nice. Today may be a conserve energy day, right this minute I am not sure. I know for a fact that I have a kit of grease...

Finally got it to load. Here she is. Happy Birthday, Ellen.

Good morning, low temp is 57°F and going to 64. Wind SW 5 mph. Partly sunny/cloudy. Rain this evening. I finally got off my butt and got the frame cut off the conveyor. Today I will put the rest of the wood into the basement and maybe start on putting the power washer together. A buddy found a...

I just got off the phone with Multi-Seal and they say that with calcium filled tires you will need to use a 1 to 10 ratio of MS to Calcium. A 5 gallon pail will cost $167.oo U.S. dollars plus freight. The exchange rate is I believe about 25%, so 167.oox1.25=$208.75 CDN $

amazon.ca has 32oz bottles of it.

The woman in sales told me that yes they ship up here, BUT shipping is stupid expen$ive. Re: New MULTISEAL(R) Contact Entry Inbox Tiffany Sicinski <tiffany@multiseal.us> Wed, 13 Oct, 11:52 (19 hours ago) to me, Multi Images are not displayed. Display images...

Good morning, low temp 58°F and going to a high of 66. Wind WSW 3 mph. 40% chance of rain and T-storms. A town run is in the cards for today, then who knows. Probably conserve energy. Not 'supposed' to rain tomorrow we will see. Have a safe day all

The difference in weight between calcium chloride and Rimgard is 1 pound per gallon. 35% Cal weighs 13.51 pounds/gallon. Personally, I have R-G in mine. I do NOT ever use my tractor in temps below -20°F, so no worries about frozen tires. Canadian Tire has Multi-Seal. Might be worth a shot...

To the winch, wench! Winch faster wench!:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Good morning, low temp is 60°F and the high forecasted to be 66. Wind WSW 2 mph. 40% chance of rain and it is raining now. So much for 'customizing' my wood conveyor. I do NOT use electric tools in the rain, double insulated or not. I suppose I could put the new power washer together instead...

and the rain has arrived. Sounds like a herd of cats pounding on my roof.

Wow! You've got lots of sand apples. I miss my Farmall C

If there is an asphalt plant (the place where they make the finished product you have), they might want it as part of their reclaim pile. Or at least accept it after you get it busted up.

I like my boiled carrots a little on the chunky side and what most would call half cooked. I occasionally sprinkle a little white sugar on them. Sweet potato, sometimes like yesterday I put a pat of sweet butter (salt free) on it. When I get done there is zero evidence of there ever being a...

Way back in May when the county health department said I could get the jab, I did. I'm now waiting for them to call me again for the second shot. They told me it would be about 4 months. Here I sit, waiting and doing things in my life exactly as I did before CV-19, except now with a mask. I...

Good morning, low 62° F and going to a high of 72. Wind SE 8 mph. Partly sunny, partly cloudy, showers with a chance of T-storms. The weather gurus have it all covered except for snow and freezing rain. Temps will start coming down to more 'seasonable' rates starting tomorrow. Yesterdays T...

Good morning, low temp 61 and high will be 73°F. Wind SE 9 mph. 30% chance of showers and T-storms. I had plans of setting up the power washer, but that didn't happen. Maybe today. Maybe not. Today is Thanksgiving Day up here in the 1/2 frozen north. So to all that celebrate Canadian...

Good morning, the low temp is 60°F and the high will be 64. Wind SSE 9 mph. 40% chance of rain or drizzle. I had to move half of the wood pile, it wasn't dumped where I wanted it but that happens when I am not here to spot it, even though I told him (Junior) where I wanted it. Next spring I...

After living in many cities in Ontario and Alberta, I have settled down just outside a small town (pop. 600) in Northern Ontario. I've been here since 1994 and still love the solitude. The peace and tranquility are what I love the most. I can't see my neighbours and they can't see me, this is a...

Good morning, low temp is 58 and the high will be 62°F. Wind E 9 mph. 60% chance of T-storms. I got the replacement for the power washer that wouldn't work in Spring, yesterday. If this one doesn't work then I will be looking for my $900.oo + 13% tax back. If it rains, then I will unbox it...

Good morning, low temp 42 and high should be about 70°F. Wind calm. Sunny! Burks Falls is in the cards for this morning. Gotta pick up 4 shelf brackets and see if the replacement power washer is in yet. Looking at the weather forecast, the next 4 days 60% chance of rain each day. So much for...

I got a call last month from someone with broken English (most likely a Paki) offering to clean my house. The caller wanted to know how many bedrooms I had on the upper floor. I told him 14. I also told him that the girls cleaned their own bedrooms and that there were only girls living here. I...

$1.oo/acre in the Yukon.

Good morning, low 51 high to 68°F. Wind NNW 2 mph. Partly sunny. Dog is going to the vet today, they (stepson & Dil) cannot seem to cut her nails but the vet will do it for a price. I am not sure what I will get up to today other than the vet run. I am in total agreement with everyone else...

53°F and going to a high of 66. Wind N 2 mph. Partly sunny. A dump run and short trip to town. That is all I am doing today.

A good vet could have it on its feet in an hour. That is my kind of steak with sour cream.

Low 60 and high to 66°F. Wind W 2 mph. A mix of sun and clouds. The grass hasn't been cut all summer, but that is okay. It just goes to seed anyway. Priced out a new Country Clipper "Avenue" z-turn mower with joystick control...$5500.oo tax in. 42" cut. I want the one with the Kawasaki engine...

I changed the exhaust on my Kioti CK27 to vertical. It runs good and gets me about 14 hours of pushing snow to a tank full.

This kid needs a stern talking to out behind the woodshed, then the legal system can have their way with him.

Finally, I am done, done for the season and laid off. Y E SSSS! Other than the fires and smoke we had to run through in the Northwestern end of the Province the only other thing of note was when I blew one of the retreaded tires clean off the truck. At 65 mph all I felt was a little thump when...
