Beautiful morning on the Coastal Plain....mid 40's this morning, crisp and sunshine!
Not so for the weekend.

Slim, are you helping recount for Stein ignoring that "there was a clear and convincing evidence of fraud or other problems"?  Gee....I had a birthday in October...I want a recount...

Night pot on the fire.'

Congrats on the grandpa-ification Major. ::)

Bright and sunny in my part of the world today.  High of 45, expected to hit 25 tonight.  It's already 30 at 10pm.

In other news, it looks like I might be trading a thunder-stick for a new one.  My little AR-15 for a Remington 700 in 264 Win Mag.   :o

Pretty name, Major, congratulations.  First one?  I balked like a startled mule when our first one was born, couldn't get my head around the grandpa thing; now, six more later, I'm just "Grampaw!!!!!"

Been relatively cool (read: cold)here, sometimes cloudy, sometimes sunny, windy most of the time lately.

Happy December, Y'all.

Later.

Rain expected starting tonight.  Both matches I'd considered going to have been canceled due to weather concerns.  Looks like a good weekend for an indoor project...beaded rifle sleeve...maybe just get started on it!

Afternoon all.

More sunny weather today.  It's about 55 outside right now.  But, all the animal waterers were frozen when I went out to make the morning rounds of the animals.  The birdbath is still frozen ::)

Planning a camping excursion with a friend for Monday and Tuesday.  He's got this crazy idea that it will be fun to get above the "white stuff" level, toss a tarp over a limb, and let the white stuff cover the tarp while he sleeps underneath in a sleeping bag rated to 40 degrees.  I will be making an igloo and using a sleeping bag rated below 0. ::)

Hanging around the upper 30's,low 40's here. Cloudy all day. We got the blowers all serviced. Found that the new one takes a somewhat different size air filter from the ones we used in the old ones. Asst. manager did some checking with our supplier, found out that the exact replacement from the blower manufacturer costs $50 a piece! We use one every month. We're going to get measurements off the old one and see if we can't find an after market that's cheaper. :o ::)

Good Morning all.  I have the warmed beverages and donuts.  ;D

Weather here is hanging around the upper thirties this morning.  Dipped to 20 last night.  Clouds hanging around above a layer of fog.

We butchered that turkey yesterday.  She was about 40lbs before we started the processing.  All said and done, she dressed to about 35 pounds.  Each breast tipped the scale at 6 pounds :o

Then for the fun.  We had someone attempt to enter our house at 1am.   My sister was up watching a movie, and I was reading a book, when the dog started barking.  She's a 60 pound Labrador: not exactly a yap-yap sound.  Then the front door knob turned and the door rattled.  We keep the deadbolt thrown, but that keeps the knob from latching, so we have a sort of early warning system.  
I grabbed my Beretta and a flashlight, and my dad and I "walked the perimeter."  Didn't find any people, though there was a clear footprint in the drieway.  A deputy picked someone up for burglarizing a car about twenty minutes down the road: coincidence perhaps, but I don't think so.

Changed the expansion tank on my hydronic system today, because it was waterlogged. Now I am bleeding the system.  I've been at it for over 4 hours. ::)

Morning y'all.
Coffee is hot.

Stayed up 'til 02:00 bleeding it. The house is almost up to normal temp.

'Tis 29 and sn*wing. "Light snow. Additional snow accumulation around 3 inches. Nearly steady temperature in the lower 30s. South wind 5 to 10 mph. Chance of snow near 100 percent."

1.5" of white so far.

BTW, the first two days of the WI recount netted Trump two more votes.  ::)
