Winter Squash keeps coming to mind.


I'm strolling about slingless. LoL
Nice feeling but wow is my arm stiff!
Its nearly shrunk to mere mortal dimensions too.

Last time I had the packing changed I showed up with my buttons on my coat misaligned. The nurse kinda smiled. All I said was, 'Smirnoff'.

That's not a bald spot, it's a solar cell for brain energy!
Why am I reminded of the "Lost in Space" episode, "The great vegetable rebellion"?
Scorching 44°, windy, and rain on the way.
Valdez doesn't have any snow either. All they're getting is rain also.

Its frustrating having to NOT do anything. Also frustrating knowing my wife is doing double duty but grateful.

Just finished replacing the heater controls that took a hit during 2nd heater core replacement and pec muscle sproing.
My daughter did most of the rnr. Now she's hammering the old part into pieces. Takes after uncle Top.

Gulf is normally fairly smooth unless some pretty good fronts moving in. Today is not bad - -sun was out, now back behind light cloud front, about 70 - - fishing could be good. It has been in between the fronts coming thru.

Lunch - - YEH!!!

Shoved and plowed some more. Not really wanting to do the whole mile and a half of the county road, but may have to. We have about a lane and a half at best of blacktop. Last ones in the county to see a county plow. Some days make me wish I had a cab on the tractor!

About 10 inches and another five promised. First big snow here for years.

Geeze Louise people, the eastern US and eastern Canada are sure getting clobbered. Sorry that you are all getting the snow and cold temps that are supposed to stay west and north of th 49th parallel.

That being said, you can keep it.

Now at least 14 inches. Measured on the tractor tires. Went ahead and made a pass up and down the road. Two wheel drive old John Deere didn't like it much, but might be able to fit the dually down in the morning. County road at the bottom of the hill not plowed at all. Now THAT might be fun! We'll see what the morning brings. Might just have to say "fooey, work will wait".

Let's goo see BOB!

Work today started as the thermometer hovered around 10*F.
We decided to knock out two tower jobs today as it looked like THIS was going the BEST day for the next week for outdoor activities.
Done now, finally get feeling back in my fingers and toes thanks to that St Bernard.........

We got lucky, the cold stayed to the north part of the state for the most part but it's going to drop tonight. It's been raining all day so we'll have ice by midnight.

Morning all. Extra coffee for those who are digging out of that white stuff. Sorry, can't say that horrible 4 letter word. Ph00 is ready t00. Fresh squeezed lime, honey and hot water for those that want to start their day with a healthy drink. Hot corn tortillas, nopales and green salsa awaits for the hungry.

Yesterday was almost a spring day here. It did get a bit breezy, but not too bad. At least it was warm enough that I could go outside in my shorts. Today will be even warmer. Me likey. Heading out this morning and will be busy for most of the day.

See yuh.

Boy, you had me worried - - my first 4 letter word that came to mind was Ph00 - - then I went back - - re-read and realized you meant

SNOW

So, now that I have that off my chest I can go get my ph00..................

Morning all - - hope your day goes well.

Bob

My normal 40 minute commute took 2 hours this morning. I skipped breakfast, so I made a huge dent in Stan's grub. Mighty Tasty!

Hope none of you guys are affected by the train in WV.
