We had a total of 3/4" rain. I can see the deer down the road looking at me wondering when I going to feed them their morning corn. I need to bundle up and head down there or they will go to the weekend warriors and meet their demise.

It went straight into the trash. Do folks really think the grocery store is a dating scene?

No, but's it's still fun to kid you about it.

It's 31 degrees here this morning and has hovered around that all night long. My deck railing has 4" icicles, and the deck surface has 1/4" of glare ice. We are coming and going through the basement and garage doors. All trees are iced over and the woods is glistening with ice. I have cedar trees that look like weeping willows. If we get more freezing rain and ice over Sun-Mon, I'll start losing tree limbs if not power lines also. I'm hoping most of the moisture stays south of us. I'll let FG off the hook this time. She can have all my freezin' rain.

Well I got to get out in the cold today.. it's 45 right now with a high of 50..:laughing:,,I got to move some grass around,, would like to call it hay but because of the lack of protein in it,, I will call it grass.. You know it not good when they eat a little then use it as bedding.. but the grass is still green somewhere over the rainbow....Lou

Speaking of feeding, we are into bird feeding already up here.
Purchased 2- 50 pound bags of Royal Classic last week. May have been a bad batch, but 99.9% Milo by looks when we opened the first bag. No actual percentage given on bag, but it sure doesn't look like the picture on the outside of the bag. Doves are about all that will eat Milo up here.
We always add more black sunflower.
Called them up and they will take it back for a refund within the next 30 days, which we will do.
Hopefully we will need something else to offset the gas cost.

Lou, I hear "grass" is a big commodity in some circles:laughing: but I think "those" folks" use it for something else?

 

[Lou66]

So true Dennis if you got the right kind of grass you can make baskets..:laughing:Lou
