Those visits to Florida are NOT helping.... :D David

YES SIR! STRAIGHTENING UP MY ATTITUDE RIGHT NOW SIR! I THANK GOD I AM ALIVE AND ABLE TO !@#$ ABOUT IT SIR! Is that better Boss? :D David

23 and cloudy? (I can't see stars) headed to 45. Just another day... Nothing special today... Be well. David

Yeah... Right... Too many Mai Tai's there bubba... Actually Saturday my bud's family are moving onto 10 acres with big house and barn etc... I'm one of his movers... plus it will be raining... David

Not so much... it rained on them all day yesterday... :D David

Actually the building it is the FUN part... It is the paying for it that stinks in my book... David

Hey Look! Guess what the local Hardware/Feed store delivered to me! It's 632' of 3 wood board Horse fence, with 6 12' gates... ...Some assembly required! :D David

28 and partly cloudy, headed to 41 or 42. It is nice when the mud in my trucks parking spot freezes so I can make less of a mess when I leave. Widening the gravel drive at the carport is a MUST DO project this summer... The fence lumber arrived yesterday, but this Saturday a very good friend...

My house the septic cleanout is buried an I'd like to find it and figure out how difficult it will be to access it BEFORE I need to, and maybe make it visible. How do I find it? Also, I'm planning a play structure on the side yard, and I believe the drain field is somewhere over there, how can...

I have the same deal. The Prior owner had/left a small pile of 3bricks way too close to the house as supposedly marking the septic... Pretty sure I will need to do something about it soon myself... I think I will change it to a visible one... David

33 and cloudy here. It is gonna rain in the next few hours. High of 50/51. Below freezing agaion tonight. My lumber & gates should arrive today. Be well David

Jamie, I hope and Pray things get better for you and your family soon. Be well, David

My thermostat attached to the heat pump said it was 13 at 0430! Online thay said Ladysmith (3 miles away) was at 20. It is very dark outside... All the animals need water, but I need it above freezing to keep my hoses from clogging. I tried to use a 55 gal plastic barrell yesterday off the...

28 and Clear. We did not get a flake of snow yesterday, and really not much rain either. I paid for my next batch of horse fence lumber and gates, so I should get busy again soon. It arrives Monday or Tuesday. Be well all. David

yesterday was 60 and lovely. The kids skipped home school and chores and played outside all day. Last night it was supposed to be rain/snow and all we got was rain. I smoked some ribs last night after a long day of work and we had a late dinner so we decided, no alarm clocks, just sleep in. I...

You remind me of an old, old movie, "Can I do it, until I glasses"... Too much of Roy's favorite website? You know that [Ctrl][+] will magnify your IE screen, right? [Ctrl][0] returns it to normal... Just trying to help you with those EXTREME CLOSE-UP views... ;) :D David

32 here warming up to 59. Happy Friday all! David

Bob, Exactly. They are consumables unfortunately... That is why I try not to over pay... But right now, I ain't got extra funds for buying another computer! David

Huh???? :confused: What ever you say Boss! :drink: I agree completely. David

Mostly_Gas, I've been a computer hardware guy for over 30 years, NONE of them are as amazing and awesome as their marketing/hype proclaims. I view a computer as a tool. I buy something standard off the shelf, not the lowest, not the highest, but a good deal, and then I run it to death. I never...

EXCELLENT NEWS! David

Sorry Don, I am not and never will be a fan of Apple. I preferred DOS where I could TELL the computer to o what I wanted, not what Jobs or Gates thinks is the way to do it. I hate how dumbed down our compute devices have become... I hate all the apple-like stuff in Windows too. Last good GUI...

My T-stat says 28, which has me worried, I did not fully drain the hoses up to the horse water because it was NOT supposed to freeze last night!!! Also my IE9 is acting up and took 1/2 hour to open TBN only to ask me to login grrrr... At least I had Firefox already installed as a backup...

Ditto. Randy you & the missus are in my prayers bud. David

38 and partly cloudy here. Not sure yet whats coming weather-wise. Birthday girl was awesome and we had a very full day of celebratory things, she was sweet as pie for all of them. At the very end, after pizza, and building her own special teddy, we got to our fro yo favorite, sweet frog, just...

My temp gauge says 38 but both weather channel and accuweather say Ladysmith (less than 3 miles away) is 43. Sky is clear, no clouds, no moon. SHOULD be 20 or less. Weird. Today is my baby girls 4th Birthday. Here is a couple recent shots from the last month or so... She's a pistol & I love...

Dear God I hope not... My arm seems to work fine, I can lift I can raise it over my head, but it aches sometimes worse, sometimes not so much. More like annoying than pain. But reaching across to scratch my left shoulder hurts a bit more. Worst is sleeping, I woke up with my whole arm & hand...

I hate freezing rain. It is destructive and impossible to drive/walk in... It is the worst winter weather.

it was 39 at 0444 when I gave up trying to sleep and got up. I've got something wrong with my right shoulder, my wife thinks it is a leftover from the motorcycle crash. Really it is just annoying randomly it hurts, mostly when I try to sleep on my right side. Of course my nature is to sleep on...

It must be 20 now. Feeding horses now and DAYUM IT'S COLD! David

HEY NOW! That is not what I said... :D David

Besides Bill, if we did not pick on you, you'd think nobody liked you... :D David

Bill, Does your lady friend know you are a post *****? 23 and clear here. Dark too with no moon. Slept poorly due to some sort of discomfort in my right shoulder, could not get confortable. Be well all, David

So she likes you becausze you're easy? :D David

I was thinking if she knew about TBN... She would be RUNNING AWAY from Bill as FAST as possible!!!!! LOL! :D David

Ron, You mow at your SnowBird camp site? Wow... David

32 and clear here. Did not even get much rain yesterday,but everything is waterlogged regardless. I hope all the NE TBN'rs are not in too bad of shape from the snow storm. Be well all, David

Roy, That is a LOVELY Home! I like the pass-thru from the kitchen & the vaulted ceilings. Congrats! David

35 and raining here. I wish WE were getting some snow! Be well all, David

25 and clear here, dark due to no moon. Rain supposedly is coming in tonight and tomorrow for sure, which is WRONG, it should be SNOW because it is FEB... :sigh: Be well all, David PS - Roy, good luck on the new house. PPS - Jamie - Just Good Luck and God Bless (Just a thought, have you...

Sam, A spot for a camp fire, and a couple tents/campers/trailers and plenty of WORK to do... Maybe a tractor parking area too... That's all you will need... David

Sam, Maybe you should have a TBN Mid-Atlantic Chainsawpalooza weekend and Invite us all down to help ya out... Just a thought... David

28 and clear and dark here. I forgot to set the alarm and slept in until 0514 AGAIN! Yesterday was not quite as long a day at work, I did make it home to take my 3 daughters out for a Daddy Date of Pizza & cheesy bacon fries... Mom got alone time, something she NEVER gets... Life is good. Crazy...

36 and clear this morning. I had a VERY Long day yesterday... Hopefully today will be a bit simpler. Be well all, David

22 and clear here. I should be tired, got less than 4 hours sleep, but the body did not care the alarm was not set. My eyeballs popped open at 4:30 and resisted greatly all efforts to go back to sleep. I gave up the argument at 0515... Be well all of y'all, David

Exactly what the party at my buddies was like. Both families had an awesome time and too much chow. I decided I really liked the SF QB after his little interview in the pregame, and his spunky performance during the game. I hated the half time show. I loved the Dodge "On the 8th day God made a...

it was 23 at 0500, there is about 1/2" snow on the ground that was laid own from 5:30 to 7pm last night and then it stopped. Clear when I got up. After Church we are spending SuperBowl at my Church/Hunting buddies place to a party and to watch the game. Be well all. Cherish your wings. there...

OK, I deserve SOME of that chit y'all are giving me. Mostly I was in a hurry, and close to the house it is warmer and sheltered from the wind. It really was a pair of sweats, long sleeved t-shirt, and a heavier flannel shirt, and boots. but *** soon as I started running up the hill, I realized...

15 and clear now. Forecast is for some small amount of snow starting at 3-4pm, and maybe some overnight also with a high of 36. Not supposed to be a ton of snow, just pretty. Be well, David

DANG IT IS COLD!!!! But the stars are brilliant! Must be 19 or 20 degrees outside. I just got home from my meeting and I was putting the small wagon I use to haul hay/feed up the hill to the horses away when I realized my daughter left one of the food buckets up in the pasture, so I ran up...

33 here and I cant see any of the supposed snow flurries from last night, but it is dark. I've got big management reviews up North today, gotta roll early... Be well all, David

You are a good son... or you are playing hookey cause it was too cold... Have a good one regardless! :D David

Weather was insane yesterday... High was well over 70, then came wind with a Tornado watch and the threats of HEAVY T-Storms (Luckily none at my place). We got a bunch of rain though. It was STILL 67 last night at 11pm in JANUARY... We only closed the windows due to wind driven rain... The...

Was it good? :D David PS - Don't tell Bill about it, what with HIS condition and all...

David, That's a funny typo... That IS typo, right? :D David

57 here with a high layer of clouds. Threat of rain and maybe thunderstorms today with 68-70 as a high. Severe T-Storm threat tonight. Opened all the windows yesterday afternoon until bed time, and left one open also all night in my bedroom... I almost turned the AC on in my truck driving back...

I suspect you are right. The one time I lived in an area that flooded was in Feb. 97 or 98 in Portland OR. We had a nice snow storm that dumped a fair amount on the city and plenty in the mountains, followed by a "Pineapple" storm of warm rainy weather that came up from the Pacific... All the...

45 and foggy here. Headed to a meeting in Columbia MD so I'm on the road ALL DAY... Supposed to hit 65 today and 69-70 tomorow! What happened to winter? Be well all, David

29 at 0530, I overslept because I forgot to set the alarm... I think I've reovered from last weeks sleep debt, Saturday I had a serious case of the DUMB and actually needed to take a NAP! Yesterday after Church my oldest had a Violin recital and she was awesome. We had a great family afternoon...

What's the count? My phone says page 800...

Roy, How was the house Hunting yesterday? The horses preferr today's 28 vs. the 8 last week... Be warm all, David

David, It looks GREAT! Why did you primer paint some of the boards (Just Curious). What kind of roofing? Thanks, David

28 and clear here... It sure was nice to get a full nights sleep in my own bed... Be well all of you, especially Larry (JD230511) working at 3am on Sunday! Thank you! David

Snow is almost completely gone. I did get to do some sledding this morning with my lovely daughters, the 3 year old is GONZO... My lovely wife made a new recipe for chicken taco's that was VERY, VERY Yummy... Good to have home cooked meal after this last week... Be well all, David

Supper, Dinner, Lunch, or Breakfast, I LOVE them all! :licking: I also LOVE a good Chili, be it chilly or chile`. I like it Texan, Verde, Colorado, con carne, white, red, you name it. I've won the hottest chili at the church cook-off a couple three times even... What's your recipe sam5570...

I can't see post count from the android app... what's our count? David

I got home at 2am, there was a tiny bit of snow falling from the blue sky at about 7:30 when the kids got me up... I fed the horses with the baby assisting and I am sitting down to a very special breakfast. It sure is nice they are happy I'm home... Gonna sled a tiny bit on the tiny bit of...

Missed the morning post due to early meetings & travels. It is warm and sunny here in Denver, cold and snowing lightly at home. Flying home in a couple hours... happy to be going home. Be well all, David

Randy, Only when I'm alone or with someone... Looks like I'm covered and the Good Lord will continue looking out for me (as He always has) :D :D :D :D :D David

I need it Randy. I'm supposed to land at Dulles at about 11pm, by the time I get luggage etc. I will be driving home (about 80 miles) at midnight, in the snow, with my 2wd F-150 and the rear has no weight, and the tires are almost bald. Gonna be a GOOD TIME! :confused2: David

So according to my daughter who txt'd me pics, at home there is "nigh unto 2" of snow" which she corrected to just over an inch, and it is 20 degrees. In Reston which is near the airport I need to land at tomorrow night, it is 18 and snowing now. Here in Denver it is 33 and clear right now...

I am thinking maybe the double post bug is fixed or at least MUCH improved. twice in the last 24 hours at minimum I have gotten the screen "do you want to leave this page" but only a single post! :thumbsup: David PS - Bill, how is the us vs them post count?

WOW! Now I don't need to say anything about Bill. Bill, be comforted that knowing is half the problem... Maybe there is hope for you yet! :D David

55 headed for 74 in Dallas, 38 in Aurora Colorado where I am headed later today, and 11 degrees at home!!!! Had a great day of meetings and a rowdy dinner out at a swanky steak joint with the customer & my team. More meetings today. I slept terrible last night but I feel ok so no big deal...

39 headed to 63 in Dallas TX where I find myself today. 24 at home right now (17 in Reston at my office!). The forecast for Friday at home says "significant snow accumulation possible" and I'll be driving home after midnight in my 2wd F-150 (If my plane can land at Dulles in the first place)...

I see divorce has improved your sunny disposition Bill... You should play SuperBallOfYarn with your puddytats instead. :rolleyes: :D David

I got an invite to a SuperBowl party this year and I'm not sure who to root for... Hmmm, East vs West Bowl? David

25 and clear here. I am getting a paid holiday today, but I have to work so it is a wash. Flying to TX this afternoon for some meetings in the FDallas/Garland area... Then off to CO for a couple meetings an I will not get home until past midnight Friday... Today is my Lovely Bride's Birthday...

39 degrees and clear. Weatherman was wrong again, taint even cold out. Bonfire was a roaring success, the middies were fine, fine lads. I was up way too late, gotta feed critters and get to Church.... Tired... Be well, David

Yup... Hawaii-time... I remember it well... :D David

Are you saying bill spends too much time on the internet looking at pictures of... pu.. pu... pu... Cats? :D David

Only while you are in TX... Or list them both... David

I tried that one time but they paddled away too fast... :D David

The Cronicles you Dufus! All the rest are your perversions... Get it straight! :D David

Bill, I will toss in my :2cents: To help you get over this obssession... :D David

Don, That is pretty tempting... I had/have a man cave in my big house in town, now my tenants play pool on my table... I've always thought when I build one, I'd make it look like a classic Irish Pub... But I might like a Texas Room just as much... David

Hey Ron! What's a "Texas Room"? David

I've only been in one, and I paid my bill. I had no choice, they would not allow me to call my wife etc. to come get me... Insurance paid most of it. Thank you for your work as volunteer. David

Once sealed in I assume you will demo the existing doors and move them forward. Right? Then you will leave the wall due to load bearing reasons? Looking great! David

28 at 0430. Got a cold spell a coming next week, the forecast high on Wed is 28... Got a group of Naval Academy Midshipmem coming over tonight for a bonfire, so it looks like I will be getting some tractor seat time today in prep AND I will get rid of one of my burn piles. :thumbsup: One of...

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :D :laughing: David

I bet it is another cat... ya know, Ole Bill the crazy cat dude...

Project Branching? Not just you Don... My issue is twofold... One is exponential branching, the other is I can't seem to finish one first before the branch explosion occurs... :rolleyes: David

Guys, I need to put pen to paper and actually figure out my bill of materials for this run-in shed. I'm thinking Pole-Barn style... I need to figure out stuf like how big is the opening? How tall at the back? 8' centers on the side and 6' on the back? 4x6 PT posts? how deep in the dirt? Three...

Hey Neighbor! There is another Beaverdam guy here on TBN but at the moment I canot recall his handle... Yes, immediately after entering my "I'm Jealous" on my android last night I heard something and went outside. I could just barely hear a rumble, someone was getting Thunder Snow, but I was...

31 and clear. it started snowing about 4pm, and it was heavy and started to accumulate, but in the end, the temp wavered too much and we mostly got rain, it might be nasty freezing rain out there, not sure yet... No sledding today...:thumbsdown: Back to work... Be well all, David

I am so jealous... Thunder snow is awesome... Be well, David

42 and raining at 0500... Snow is forecast for this afternoon & evening, with a low of 28... Might get 1-3" they say... Girls are excited cause Santa delivered cool new sleds this year... I fear the snow will not last due to sleds, and also my yard is so saturated. parts of the grass are like...

Yes, I hope so too. You need to get more pictures of it up here... David

28 and lightly snowing in State College PA. Looks like over an inch on the ground... Meetings and drive back to Virginia are my agenda for today. Be well all. David

Thanks! David

Care to email me some of that big orange UFO in the sky? It is downright Dank here in VA today... It looks and feels more like Portland Oregon (where I was a kid)... David

That is the plan & my habit. :D Thanks, David

40 degrees and raining at 0430. I'm driving to State College PA today for meetings tomorrow. Be well all. David

64 & Cloudy, Raining to the north, will be here soon, will rain on and off today. Be well, David

AWESOME! Details and Pictures ASAP Randy, them's the rules! What year is it? David

48 here at 0500... foggy still, it really never eft. yesterday was very foggy up until noon and then it lifted about 50' and by 5pm my place was foggy again. Supposed to get to 68-72 today depending on which weather report you listen to. Looking forward to spending time outside after Church...

45 and EXTREMELY FOGGY. Supposed to clear up and be over 60. Had drizzly rain all day yesterday. I got the Flex oil changed & 40k service done at the dealership (loving the prepaid scheduled service for first 100k miles). I am not sure what I'm doing today... So many projects... I think I'm...

I do. Regularly and often, and not just with words, but also with acts of service. Love is a VERB, it is what you DO, not what you say... We spent most of the evening talking about what our options are for finishing the attic... This too shall pass... Be well, David

37 and cloudy here. I believe it is supposed to rain. I moved 12 hay bales from the barn to the house (I keep a 12 bale stack under the deck for daily feeding needs) last night SPECIFICALLY because I thought today would be rainy. Looks like I've got work travel to TX and CO coming up week after...

Bill, Income is ALWAYS good. I'm renting two of my homes out, andby the end of the year in reality it was only "cash flow" I purposely set things so they would come close to break even, and after paying all of my costs, I end up with a small loss, or even, every year... Income is ALWAYS...

I am so angry I could explode... I paid $365K for my place in August 2010, it appraised at $225 for the 51 aces, $140k for the house. I have 42 acres of mature market timber, I am putting in 5 acres of horse pasture, and about 1.5 of it is fenced an useful(two horses live there for over 1 year...

it was 40 when I got up. Yesterday in the truck I saw 60 on the temp display. It would look like winter outside, a bit cloudy etc. and I'd step out and it would feel unseasonably warm. They are now predicting 72 by Sunday... Be well, David

Army Grunt, :drink: heres to a good report from the Dr. Be well, David

34 and clear headed for 58! This weekend we will have 70 degrees on Sunday supposedly. Looks like it will not hit freezing at night for most of the next 10 days. Crazy weather... Be well, David

I was wrong... Saturday is predicted at high 67, low 53, and Sunday at 70/52... :shocked: David

28 and mostly clear, 55 predicted today, 61 tomorrow, and 68!!! for Sunday! This is a very weird winter! Be well, David

Roy, W O W !!!!!! :shocked: David

Folks, Well it seems my local guy finally got some of the Poplar boards I needed and it is time to get off the dime and get back to work on the pasture fences and run-in shed. The lumber might be in stock today... Last year I built in November and early Dec, and had NO issues really due to...

41 and mostly clear. Weather has been odd last few days. Forecast to be cold at night, but it does not happen, stays above freezing often. Yesterday it was warm right up to sun rise, and then it cleared and got COLD fast, flash freezing dew on the grass, and my wipers to the windshield on my...

Roy, I agree with BigIslandDave (sodamo) 100%. PLEASE report that Realtor to her broker AND to the PA ethics or official administration board. The good news is that at the moment at least she is NOT getting paid because the deal fell through. Her behavior is WAY out of line. Good Luck and...

38 and cloudy, 30 was the forecast low... I did not get a deer but I do have a great last 5 minutes of deer season story... I promise to tell it later. Be well, David

...And we STILL have fewer posts than the Cronicles... :rolleyes: David

BALDERDASH! Long Winded I'll give you, MEANINGFUL? I think NOT! Yes you are a prolific starter of threads (we shall stop there). ;) David

BALDERDASH! Long Winded I'll give you, MEANINGFUL? I think NOT! Yes you are a prolific starter of threads (we shall stop there). ;) David

27 and clear, gonna try to shoot some :deer: or :moose: for the last time this season today. Be well all! David

Welcome :welcome: to TBN! Happy :tractor: tractoring! We all look forward to your contributions to the knowledge & experience here! oops, sorry, too late for that! Do we KNOW you? Heh, heh, heh, heh... Congrats on postwhoring over 6,200 times Bill! ;) Be well, David

Didn't that happen at about the 2501st post??? :D I'm shooting for "Super" at 5000... :D David

Yes YOU DO! All Hail the Redskins and RGIII!!! :D David PS - Remember me, no TV (therefore NO Football)...

I wonder what they were watching in the REAL picture... A STAG Movie?:rolleyes: :D David

I had to consider that before I replied... I completely agree BTW :laughing: David

BWAHAHAHAHAHAH :laughing::rotfl: NOW I SEE THE PROBLEM!!!! I need to get TV service! :D David

My family we are really good at washing our hands. We tend to get REALLY dirty first, and we wash up regularly and often. So every winter, both my older daughters get REALLY red chapped hands, and my hands, mostly the finger tips, joints, and heel of my hands get VERY rough, and crack. Mostly...

22 and clear here. Supposed to be nice oday, might get a little bit of hunting in. My buddy and my boss will come hunting tomorrow for the last day of the season for deer. After that there is a little bit of turkey season left and then nuthing... My local hardware guy has managed to find a...

Roy, Wow, that stinks. This realtor sounds like a real wonderful person... I am sorry you are going through this PITA. Glad the rest of everything is going well. David

It was 31 at 0500 here, a layer of clouds stopped it from getting to the forecast 22. No stars at all. The wife seems to have gotten the flu, so my day is chotic now... Be well y'all, David

Or roadwork... :D David

Weather this year has been very odd. Yesterday all day the weather radar showe we were smack dab in the middle of rain and we got nothing. not a drop. Both last night, and the night before we were supposed to hit upper 20's, but we did not even hit freezing. Last night's forecast was 28, this...

Roy, Happy Belated Birthday! Sorry I missed it yesterday Be well, David

39 and cloudy. The weathermen kept saying we would get a snow/rain mess after midnight and where is it? Happy 2013 all-o-y'all! David

Ron, Well it IS an awesome picture!:thumbsup: :D David

25 and clear. Happy Birthday tomorrow Roy. Happy 2013 everyone. My Plan for today is mostly landlord duties. I have an excellent set of tenants moving out whom I will miss, and I have a new 2 year lease (they wanted 3 years) moving in tomorrow. So I am doing both the exit walkthrough, and the...

Morning Y'all. 33 and mostly clear, bright full moon shows there is a small amount of clouds. We had snow mixed with mostly rain yesterday from 7:30 to 10, and then just rain until noon, then it was VERY nice out. The wife and I tried the 2nd time to go see the new James Bond, and this time...

35 and sprinkling. The weather folks promised "snow mixed with rain" and my girls will be sorely dissapointed we got basically nothing last night, and rain sprinkles this morning. I don't have "rain gear" for hunting, so I'm probably NOT hunting today... Yesterday's drive home was only 3.5...

Roy, I am sorry to hear you are having such Chaos... Be well sir. David

BirdDog, Me too! I do get to work from home or on the road A LOT... But around the holidays or bad weather, traffic North/South on I-95 is horrid... I simply cannot WORK rural (yet)... I have a Lunch event up in Springfield today, and I HATE the Friday commute, but if I can head South...

29 and hazy??? I can see the full moon, but it has a slightly obscuring haze, and I can only see a couple stars, not a clear night sky, but I cannot see any clouds. Yesterday I had a 4 hour drive home from the DC Beltway area :rolleyes:... Be well all, David

Welcome to TBN Charlie! Be well, David

Slept in until 0550, thermostat says 32 outside, there are a few clouds, and the moon is bright. Ron, safe travels sir! Be well all, David

Now THAT made me chuckle! God Bless you and yours Don. Congrats on finishing the pavers. It is a thing of beauty. Be well, David

38 and raining - Correct that it WAS 38 and raining at 0500, it is NOW 32 and SNOWING :snowflake:!!! Had an awesome Christmas yesterday. It started with an amazing Christmas Eve service at Church the evening of the 24th. My youngest was an awesome sheep in the play, my oldest daughter sang her...

28 and clear here. I stayed up until after 1am wrapping last night so for the first time EVER I think I can go to SLEEP at a reasonable time on Christmas Eve!!! I get to watch all of my girls, including my wife, perform in some fashion at Church tonight, I need to find and charge my...

24 Clear and CCCCCCOLD! I really need to get wrapping! :eek: My littlest one is a sheep in the Christmas play at Church, we will be rehersing this afternoon after Church. I think she will be awesome. My oldest is singing a solo with my wife accompanying her on the flute, and both older girls...

Best wishes for a full and complete recovery ArmyGrunt! Get Well! David

Don, Pavers look awesome. Maybe you should start a business??? Be well, David

33 here and I'm certain it will touch freezing soon. I almost had a head on collision with a deer on a trail yesterday at sunrise, it went dashing past me at about 15-20' away through the holly trees. It saw me first and all I saw was another deer rump... We decided to go out to Mexican for...

Well said Roy! My suspicion is it is just another Friday... 49 headed to a high of 48 (thats what the weather says) it poured rain last night. I wonder what the hunting will be like this morning... I'm almost completely done Christmas shopping, now the wrapping needs to begin :rolleyes...

David, Careful what you say there! My wife would like to go back to Hawaii, and the girls are begging to go. We were married on Kuai back in 93 just after they reopened the island after Iniki. We also took our very first vacation in Waikiki way way back in 1989 or 90... The Big Island looks...

34 and partly cloudy here. It was 64 and sunny yesterday afternoon, I was stomping around in the woods and it was almost too hot. The story I'm hearing on the deer locally is the rut started and ended early. I saw some sign that they may be herding up early yesterday. we had to go somewhere...

That is what the man said... I gotta try some of that...

ROY!!! It is VERY GOOD to hear from you! Looking forward to more updates! David

David, :licking:When can I come over for Breakfast?:licking: Yum, yum, yummy, yummers! David

38 and Clear here. Be well all, David

No sir. Not that kind of tickets... Code words for something work related... :D David

52 and cloudy. I probably can;t hunt the daybreak, I've GOT to get into the office earlier than I have been. All of my "tickets" have finally been approved and moved over and I finally get full access. I am thrilled my workload will actually go up now, I much prefer to be busy. Y'all have a...

Bill, I never realized Michigan was on the same Time Zone as the East Coast... You are the quintessential postwhore though, but you already know that sir. Be well, David

Randy, We are not that easily... SQUIRREL! :D David

NOT if I see you first! :D David

Bill, You KNOW nobody does what I say... Not my Horses, not me Kids... :rolleyes: David

Go Don GO! :D David

50 and foggy from my deer stand... Be well, David

I wonder how Roy is doing... I hope the move went well and he's off to the new job at the stove factory today...Or soon. David

Gun show was PACKED yesterday. More tables than ever before for Fredericksburg, and there were so many cars/trucks they were overflowing the parking lot and were parked on the grass. I bought a concealed holster that will hold my full sized 9 and a front grip "broomstick" with pop-out bipod for...

Sorry you were sick. I hate the flu. Be WELL, David

Bill, I'll do my part. David.

Bill, Bill, Bill.... I do not need to say a word. David

49 and cloudy, I think it might rain. Rained a bit yesterday also. This weather is weird. One day the high is 48, a couple days later the low is 49... Be well, David

42 here and cloudy. Might rain today. After I feed all the critters and go to Church, I'm going to the Gun show with a buddy, looking for a daily carry gun... Be well all, David

31 with a few clouds... Praying for the parents in Conn. Praying for my country... Be well, David

Bill, Do NOT mistake me for the wee laddie from Scotland... Also, unfortunately it seems this evening I have no sense of humor anyways... Be well, David

Wayne, That is heartbreaking... My deer season ends Jan 4th 30 min after sunset... It was about 22 degrees about sunrise, but I did not go out, the wife woke up early and we had a family meeting about Christmas shopping stuff, we've been unable to sit down and chat without the girls in the...

24 and clear as a bell. Gonna def need the long johns this morning for deer hunting... Very tired this morning I did not get home until well after 10, got to bed just before midnight, and the 3 year old has been up for some reason around 2am for 3 nights in a row... Not for long, just enough to...

Gonna have to try harder Billy boy! There is no POLITICS in my statement:laughing: Be well, David

I'm across the street from Columbus Square and I can see the Capitol Dome... big swanky "invite only" ""Holiday"" party... whole bunch of very political animals... the things I do to make tractor payments and put food on the table :rolleyes: Be well all-o-y'all! David

WHY I OUGHTA!!.... :D David

So... What crazy thing will Bill say today? Maybe he will take his cat to lunch and not the neighbor's dog? Hmmm? :D Be well, David

The weather widget says it is 32 here, but my thermostat says 36. Hmmm. The only thing that matters is "is it cold enough for long johns or not" as I put on my hunting gear... Mornin Y'all. During the day today I am going to TRY to get to the bank and ask for another $100-110K to remodel the...

[gasp]:shocked: Far TOO MUCH INFORMATION!!!!! :eek: :D David

Bill, Too many questions arise from this post... Are you talking about... 1) Your new girl friend? 2) Assassinating the dog next door? 3) I'm almost afraid to know the truth... :shocked: David

12-12-12 and I was completely unable to get to TBN this morning. It was 41 this morning, and clear. creeping out to my deer stand I startled, and then the startled the @#$%^ outta me, a family of wild turkeys roosted in a couple pine trees. I musta scuffed a leaf and they procedded to EXPLODE...

48 and cloudy. Looks like the expected rain missed us. I'm going to hunt this morning, but more importantly the evening. cold is coming in today/tonight for at least a day or two and my builder who only lives a mile or so away from me and is a serious deer hunter says locally the deer ALWAYS go...

I suspect you are right oh great King of the North... Truthfully my biggest issue is it messes iup deer hunting, and it is not warm and dry enough to ride my Harley to work every day... I'm spoilt and whining. I'll stop. Got any big lower 48 plans for the winter? Feel free to visit my...

Wow... it is past sunset, there is a stiff breeze and rain is coming according to the clouds, it is Dec 10th, at 4:55 and it is so warm while feeding the horses right now, that I had to take off my coat. I'm wearing jeans and a regular short sleeved t-shirt... it is 65!!! Where or when is winter???

50 degrees and VERY foggy. I'd LOVE to hunt a little this morning, but the wife and I have an appt. in town at 9... Be well all, David

Randy, On the first, please accept my condolences & know you are in my prayers. On the second, I too wish I knew... The damage that led my brother to suicide is still evident in my family, my last brother and my sister cannot reconcile, and it hurts me that my family cannot rise above our...

Agreed... David

50 and VERY Foggy here. Yesterday my wife was working out by walking up and down our hill and I needed to chat with her about our neighbors just got orders and they will be moving this summer and they offered to me to buy thier place, and/or buy the 17 acres next to mine (I wish I could)...

Wayne, I don't know about that one... Let's see if I manage to get something... After feeding the horses, I came in for coffee and a head call... Someone ran a pack of dogs across a nearby property while I was feeding the horses, and my neighbor said they kicked up a big doe, and she must...

So... I grew up hunting Black Tail Deer in Oregon, and white tail's are different... :deer: I've heard a rumor that there is a difference in white tail males & females scat... Personally I find that hard to fathom... but... is there any truth to this old wives TALE about white tails? If so...

I'm sitting in my soaking wet tree stand. Fog has obscured the sunrise. Seen one squirrel and nothing else... I'm gonna go looking for sleeping deer instead... let my seat dry off... Later, David
