Don’t know, probably some busy work. I’m staying home doing some retirement planning tomorrow.
I try to do 10 miles per night on the bike, which isn’t even close to catching you.

Fast moving snow. 2” so far.
Spent evening looking at land online, mostly overpriced junk. Only a couple, from PA to TN looked half way interesting. Most realtors do a terrible job with listings. 1 or 2 cruddy pictures and lame write ups, or 20 pictures of the same broken gate in front.
One I liked, but over 200k. Then I see they have another 80 acre listed for $550k using same 2 pictures. So which one is in the picture? Doesn’t matter, can’t afford it.
Might call tomorrow about one to find out what engineered septic means.
Then look at listing history, some been on market long time, with price drops, then taken off market for couple months, then relisted wanting more than they couldn’t sell for before. And most are crap.
Too bad the one I really like is in wrong county.
Buppies, glad you got home ok.

23° this morning...high in the upper 20's today...
Stepdaughter will be caring for wifey today. Wife is getting around reasonable well, using a wheel chair.
As previously posted, I've got some work related concerns that can't be handled remotely

good morning all
very pretty out, snow coming down with little wind, 2 inches so far, maybe another inch to come.
For once they got the forecast right.
So I'll be clearing the driveway this morning, no plans to drive anywhere.
got the second landscaper bid in on walkway grading at church, both very close to each other and reasonable.
Job will likely go to my own landscaper, one of the bidders, since he came in lower with a different solution to
burying a downspout pipe, using the pop up drains like I had all around my house in NC. They work great but are prone
to clogging without routine cleanouts.
When I moved to NC the shipper didn't bring a big enough trailer for my second tractor, the first one I owned, and I decided to donate
it back to the church. Where I now find out it sat unloved under open sheds for the last 7 years, wouldn't start and was finally sold for 800 dollars.
The tractor was perfect when I left it, with a new Landpride mower. I was away and no one thought to call me.
If running we could easily have gotten five or six thousand for a clean used tractor. An expensive lesson for me, sure know now I can't trust the caretaker
to take care of nice machinery. Nice looking tractor too....
I wonder who has it now...
Popgadget, this was the tractor you offered to come help me with, when I thought it was still there. If we had drained the fuel and changed filters, I bet it would have run
just fine.

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 they will look after it better. Most likely the guy at the church was afraid of the tractor, therefore he left it sit outside and basically ignored it.
I checked out prices on the funeral home website we will be using and they are pretty reasonable, haulage to North Bay (40 miles) cremation and urn all in about $1500.oo.
It cost me $4,000.oo to do the same thing with my Dad and it was all done in Brampton, ON (all facilities right there).
Monday the three of us go to the hospital in North Bay so she can get a P.I.C. line installed.
Enough of that morbid subject.
The inch of snow that came yesterday after I got done plowing can wait until the next decent snowfall.
Has anyone had their skidsteer quick attach come apart while you were working the tractor? Mine did yesterday right after I pried myself out of the ditch. Weird. It all went back together easily enough, but it is odd that it came apart in the first place.
An energy conservation day today, for sure.
Have a safe day all

Coffee is brewing. 10° with partly cloudy skies. Heading to 19° with mix of sun and clouds. Got house work and paperwork completed yesterday. Need to take get it faxed today. No other plans.
Some days it hard keeping up with all the post. Thanks to Mostly. It is easier.
Counted 7 cardinals at feeders yesterday. 3 males. Could not get more than 2 in a picture at a time.
Mostly, Industrial area is on main road a mile south of me. Still lots of land to be had there.
Buckeye, vacant land is selling for $60k per acre here. There is 13 acres next to me. Hard to believe someone would pay almost $800K for it. Land could be divided into 4 three acre lots with current zoning. Lots of restriction.
Drew, sorry to hear about tractor setting for years.
Buppies, good you made it home safe.
LS, hope trip for new RV is going good.
WoodChuck, glad you got power back.
Everyone stay safe and healthy.
Good Morning All.

It's a tough time to be looking, for sure. Many folks drove prices up when they left cities where they felt unsafe and looked for lower tax areas. I just got our real estate assessment notice and it went up 15%...and that's not huge compared to some areas.
Good luck with your search.
