Sounds like a good time to stay indoors, Slim.

Our weather guessers weren't too far off today.  high of around 55 when the sun decided to peek around the clouds.  WInd gusted to around 10, and a bit of rain.  I took my 223 and went up to a clearing on the mountain with some coyote calls and tried my luck.  While I was up there, it started dumping white stuff on me with a vengeance.  I high-tailed it down to lower elevations, built a fire and ate lunch in a little shelter thing I built last month.   Not a bad excursion.

We were in the 40's today with some drizzle. Since I've been fighting the "Green apple quick step" for the last four weeks, I found out today how weak it's made me while helping my associate cut up several downed trees. Wiped me out pretty bad. Good thing he got called away during our lunch break, I didn't have to answer the bell for this afternoon. just sat the rest of the afternoon, but am feeling better now. I believe I've now got things solidified at least for now. ::) :P

Morning y'all.
Coffee is hot.

1" so far.
'Tis 32 and flurries. "Snow. Snow accumulation of 3 to 4 inches. Nearly steady temperature in the mid 30s. Northeast wind 10 to 15 mph. Chance of snow near 100 percent."

Morning all.

Weather is 34, with a 1mph wind (if you can call one mile per hour a 'wind' )from the south.  The weather service has changed their minds four times in the past hour as to what today is going to bring, so I'm just going to stay inside, I think. ::)

For some reason, I ended up not sleeping much last night.  Kept waking up, so I'm going to the coffee pot for seconds.

This is crazy weather here...

Had light rain to start this morning. We finished getting the one pine tree we cut yesterday hauled out. Moved the axles that were on the two new homes that came in in the last couple weeks. Those things are heavy and awquard to handle. Having muddy lots didn't make it any easier too ::) :-\

Morning all.

We have clouds out here today.  Supposed to get wet/icy stuff falling from them at some point.  I'm going to try an stay inside if that happens.  I'm really fighting some sort of bug right now, and being cold isn't likely to help.

Still floating just above freezing here, so the white stuff isn't going away very fast.  At least we haven't got anything new.

Got a new toy (a tablet computer), so I've been futzin' with it for last couple days.  Almost got it setup the way I want it.  Just a little more tweaking to do.

Stuff’s ready for the wakeup call!

Sunshine and temps in the low 40s for today.  Should make some headway on the white ground cover.

Morning all.

Forecast is mostly sunny after the fog burns off, high of 60. :o  I will say, I'm ready for some sun after three straight weeks of rain.

Heading off to the gun show today.   Hope to find a 257 Roberts AI, or maybe another Winchester '94.  Not that I have money...  ::)

In other news, I think I'm going to have to replace either my front fuel pump or my transmission...  The noise was coming from around there, But I don't have time to diagnose it today.  We'll see.
