Shouldn't be hard to change, at least if it doesn't(Didn't) have A/C. Had to change the one in my '76 last year. Just reach under the hood and change it. Hardest part was getting the squirrel cage off the old one.

[The Trinity Kid]

Afternoon all.

Currently 27 and sn*wing.  Have 11 inches on the ground, and it's not supposed to stop for 5 more hours. I have to work in this tonight. I think I should get hardship pay, especially since I'm making less than minimum wage.  I don't think the boss agrees.

Been raining here for a couple hours now

Morning all.

25 and sn*wing, with 10mph winds. Forecast for 5-7 inches.

My first class today was cancelled because the professor's car broke, so I'm just sitting around drinking coffee and watching the snow fall until my next class.  Then I have a couple meetings tonight.  One is for work. It's only an hour. The other is with one of the professors here about academic stuff.

No, can do some looking.

[litl rooster]

No, can do some looking.

I found a few in research, thank you though... a cherokee chataw thing- using Muschadines as i suspected and corn flour as i also suspected. Suzanne is going to try and recreate it.

Coffee is up.

Sunny but fridged cold for the region
 


The last of the Kids survived the trip to the Vet yesterday.  Only one single horn on the farm. Mistake by the previous farm.
Came home and i heard the neighbirs chickes in a ruckus. A few minutes later a woman pulls in the drive asking if we seen her dog.  I told her check with neighbor. She looked in our field and went home. Little bit later our neighbor cane to see Suzanne and told her that dog killed 2 of her hens.  So one dog leaves the neighborhood and another moves in.
