17°F and clear skies this morning, got up to 38° today. Lots of sunshine, so most of the snow is gone already, with just the shady areas remaining.

Got the oil changed in the Kia Rio, and took a short nap. That's about all I have accomplished today. Been tinkering around in the studio all afternoon. Need to change strings on some guitars. Probably won't do them all (nine of them!).
Edit: I also got the car washed. It had so much salt on it, I was afraid deer might start running along side me to lick it.

Those Roll-a-Lifts look like heavy duty piano dollies, RNG.

Fascinating ice flake, Kyle.

Good evening, gents.

LOL. I had one sitting on the dock that I thought was very sturdy, because the corners were metal and the roof had a nice metal structure with fiberglass type panels. Nope. I tries to keep the snow off of it and then missed it for a couple weeks and it collapsed! ($1,000 down the drain.)

Next time I’m building one out of Lumber, complete with trusses, and shingles. Will build the roof to spec for the snow load up there at the cottage, and the four corner posts will be made out of 6 x 6 pressure-treated lumber and will sit directly on top of the 6 x 6 cribs.
A tin or gavalume roof would be better IF you have a good pitch. Self unloading.

Poured first cup of coffee. 12° with partly cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 35° with cloudy skies. Got some shop work done yesterday. Then moved bird seed from garage to barn. Where I put it in 33 gallon containers. For each 40lbs bag of feed I add 1 1/2 gallons of sunflower seed. Birds seem to like this mix. Had good visit with neighbor in afternoon. No plans for today. Other than watch NASCAR race in afternoon.

Good Morning from Central Texas.

At 4am, 40.8 degrees and 40.5 dew point. So, foggy and drizzle. Finally out of "our deep freeze" with a 60 forecast today and 70's all week. Getting time to put out pre-emergent in yard and buy some minnows and perch for the stock tank (about 2 acres) to feed the bass. Late February is the "best" time I understand, with fertilization once the water temps reach 60 degrees.

The USAF global strike command operates (4) main bombers: the B-52 stratofortress, B-1 Lancer, B-2 Spirit and the B-21 Raider.
The B-52, B-1 and B-2 (pictured) continue to be the workhorses with the B-21 expected to replace the B-1 and B-2 aircraft.

There are additional B-21's on order from Northrop Grumman as part of the LRS-B (long range strike bomber) program to build inventory.

Hope all enjoy the day.
