33 right now....high in the mid-30's. Steady snow outside and looks like about 4" accumulation so far. The prediction has upped the total accumulation to 6 to 12 inches

LS I vote for a tie inside and out beautiful

30 high of 38 wind gusts to 25mph not good outside working weather

Prayers for all

Farmer I think one would study used values to make determination. How much is new filter may be way less than you think

Good morning all, 33 going to 41 and partly sunny. Got the first Christmas present for wife and ordered some birthday presents for the boy. Stopped by the storage unit to get a few things for wife and got the 2 x 72 belt grinder I was in the process of building when we moved. Hope to get it going before long, and hope to work on it today. Will see.

LS, prayers sent for a big improvment in your knee.

Have a great day, prayers sent. Ed

32 going to 46 and sunny.

LS, I think all of your lights are beautiful, but suggest that your wife wins (then you ultimately win). Prayers for your surgery.

Buppies, 9mm or 380?

Thinking about roasting some more coffee, then getting the chainsaw out for the first time this season. I'll have to carry it to the woods...still too soft to take the tractor.

30 tonight. Also the high for tomorrow. With snow flurries overnight. No accumulation expected as ground is still quite warm. Has yet to freeze solid this year.

Several thanksgivings as usual. 4 total. Think I did well, didn稚 gain any weight from the holiday. I over ate at every meal but then managed to skip one meal that day and keep the calories in check. I致e lost 20 lbs since June when I had my gallbladder out. Still have some more to go.

Happy belated birthday and anniversaries to all those that have celebrated.

Managed to get some more bush hogging done. Have about 10 acres left for this fall. Just need weather to cooperate for a few days.
Spent time today working on wife痴 Tahoe. She started complaining of a popping noise in drivers front. Took it to a buddies place and found the sway control arm end link broke. Replaced both of those and a headlight bulb. Headlight bulb was more expensive than the end links. 3 hours. Including diagnosis and getting parts.

Rng hopefully your evacuation is lifted soon.


Question for you guys. At how many hours would you stop looking at a used tractor?
Kubota is coming up on 3 years old and 1,100 hours. 3,000 hour dpf. I really don稚 want to go past that filter life. Do I look at trading in next year before 1,500 hours or keep it to 2,000-2,500 or see how many hours a kubota will run?

Congrats on losing the weight!

I think Buppies has a good idea...price what they sell for at both stages of life, and consider what you'd pay for a new one and what you'd get for a trade-in. My tractor has over 1,100 hours and I'd buy it again as it sits.

Anybody have a nutcracker for pecans that they are particularly pleased with? I harvested so many this year that I have to upgrade the way I've been opening them (with a crab claw cracker).

Update on my long Social Security story...I got my name corrected and new SS card in the mail Friday...very fast! It was updated online the very day I visited the SS office, and the application for Medicare next year was approved that very day.

27 going to 32F. Wind N14 gusting to 23 mph. Snow. It is snowing now and has been since yesterday at noon.
We got about 4" so far and it will be continuing today. I will go out at daybreak and plow everybody I need to and 'do' myself last.

Have a good day all

31F now mid 30's for high strong gusty winds more snow will fall.

Finish shoveling plowing driveway etc. 5" wet heavy snow,after work clean the 4 roofs and plow again....Nov. hasn't been kind.
E muffins and real slow roll to work.

Enjoy the day all...be careful when out and about.
