Wind has me up waaaaay early, Woke at 2 to half hour if 49+ gusts,settled down for a while and mid it’s back. 42 mph gust a few minutes ago. Forgot to bungee the trash wheeler lid when I put it out last night and didn’t put the other one in the garage. I miss my reminder person. I would have gone out and gone out at 2 when Lynn was here but if something happens by myself and nobody to call anyone I’d be in trouble. Who knows what kind of mess there is? Oh well, life goes on.

Good morning. I was pleasantly surprised to find all alive and well this morning. The wind has been brutal, gusting higher than expected yesterday and throughout the night. Where the sheep are at the moment is very exposed, however moving them would also make it more likely for the lambs to get separated from mothers without me seeing them. Best I have been able to do is make low level windbreaks out of any heavy pieces of timber I could find, old rotted off gateposts still have their uses.

Freedom, thought of you when I was having to carry out water this morning to frozen troughs - hope your pipes thaw soon.

Please say thanks to your daughter Kyle for treating us to another of her paintings.
Ask her about the bird tattoo.
Trust your eagle eyes to have spotted that Don :thumbsup: Wonder if pictures-in-pictures will be a signature theme for the future ?

good morning all. This is quite a windstorm, reaching all the way over to England!

woke up to blinking lights, power went off at some point and I slept through it, vents to
dryer and stove clattering like mad, multiple windchimes on the porch going into orchestral overdrive, ding ding ding ding ding
and oh geez, Toppop, you reminded me I didn't bring the trash can in. Sitting on pavement too, with wheels. :rolleyes:

51 degrees and a clear day, but something tells me I'm going to be on stick duty for awhile.
All the pine trees were about a week out from exploding in pollen. Am glad we didn't add wind to that, my house would turn solid yellow.
Actually my next door neighbor going into the p/t powerwashing business is a fine thing in this mold and pollen mix.

Just hoping when I make my golf cart rounds this morning no big tree limbs are down.
And those poor snow peas out in that field, trying to hang onto that green fuzzy twine, with those tiny little tendrils.
I'll be happy if they didn't snap.
and of course it would be nice if my new phone booth, one holer, aka the new garden shed..., hasn't blown over into the beets.
It's at least 300 pounds, and I put some weight in the bottom. ?
Yup, this morning's "rounds" should be interesting.

be safe up North, watch for downed wires.

Kyle, please tell your daughter she got hundreds ? of compliments on her painting and we all think she should be proud of herself.
Or however you translate that...
Honestly you put a smile on every face here.

that pic could be on the cover of FFA magazine.

Good morning all, 38 this morning going to 47 with a high wind warning until 6am sat. Highest speed on the weather station is 24, we are pretty sheltered here. Ended up running errands for the 2nd day in a row, maybe today I can take it easy.

Kyle, Great news, great pic, you should be proud. I know a man that was the principal of the largest elementary school in his state and he was dislexic. Did a good job too from what I hear. Your daughter can do a lot too. Great job dad.

Prayers for RIP and those in need. Ed

Well I better have my English muffin think about heading down to valley for 8 hours.

Enjoy the day all.

Just had my English muffin, and working on my 2nd cup of coffee. I am waiting until daylight to deal with snow. I'll withhold judgement on the day until that is over...:(



Edit: I just checked the forecast. 41 for the high. I'm gonna pretend it never happened.
