12° here in Upstate NY this chilly morning, the high will be up to about 25° today. We are to get some snow today and tonight, they are saying we may get about 4" all together.

I was on the road all day yesterday, today will be another busy day but at least some of it will be here at home. February has been a bad month and it looks as if it is going to go out that way.

Have a Wonderful Day Everyone.

Good Morning

Morning George and others to follow. 26 here in NC Ohio with some sun possible. Great sunny day yesterday, getting anxious for spring around here. I really appreciate the pictures everyone posts, my health doesn't allow me to see or do the things others do. Be safe and Prayers to those and country. Mike

Good morning from Kearney MO. 25 now, rain in the forecast. I survived the I35 out of Minnesota yesterday. 95 percent ice and snow packed, traveling 35mph for hours in very heavy traffic.
Saw the lawyer to finish Gary's estate and get checks to the kids. Stopped by the local gun shop and looked at a couple of interesting BP guns but decided to pass.
This morning I am meeting with a friend and fellow old tool collector, the guy who got me started collecting reloading tools.
Then headed for Fort Worth.
Hope everyone has a blessed day,
Ken

morning all. 21 to start and on the way to mid 40s again today. Chance of snow for the weekend... we'll see how that goes.
Sure is muddy around the calving areas in the afternoon, just glad it's still froze under the mud or we'd be stuck and using a tractor to get around. Hope none of the babies are born in the standing water. It'll dry out, it always has!
Didn't get much done in the shop but pulled the batteries out of one of the trailer pulling pickups and took them to town. Need to put the new ones in today, and then work on the blue loader some more.
Saw 6 coyotes yesterday morning, all running except the one sitting in the neighbors cows where I couldn't shoot. Did hit one on the run, he rolled and spun but while I was shooting at his friend he got his legs going again and got away hate when that happens!
Have a happy hump day and be safe and warm.
GOD BLESS. Dean

good morning folks. Mike, Mike, Mike...guess what day it is? It is 21º here with sunshine. Looks to be a nice day, heading into the 40's. Were supposed to get some snow this week but it looks like the chances are diminishing as the week progresses. But it doesn't look like we get a reprieve from the cold. Going to be CHILLY next week. Let's hope that's it and Spring comes! I'm sure Donnie wants to go fishing. I know I do!

Didn't get anything done last night. Had to work at the shop and by the time I got home and ate I was pooped. Don't have to work tonight though.

Prayers sent. Have a good one gang!

Charlie

Mike, Mike, Mike...guess what day it is?

HAPPY HUMP DAY, GoGo. It's 44 in Louisville, going to 57. The sun came up clear and bright this morning, but I think we're expecting clouds most of the day. Yesterday was sunny, bright and a really nice winter day. Maybe we'll catch a break and have sun most of today.

Nothing much to report except that I have to make the drive downtown again this morning. Yesterday wasn't bad until I got to my off ramp, which is maybe 300 feet from the Ohio River. High water means River Road is closed downtown, which screws up the traffic patterns.

Y'all have a good'n and be safe out there.

Morning Gents! Its 51º here and cloudy with rain back in the forecast. Think I'm going to head down to deer camp for a few days and try to call a Coyote. If it rains I'll just sit on the porch and drink coffee and watch it! You'all have a good one!

Great morning everyone,

59° with a few clouds for now in the rock & dirt. 75° and clear later.

Mike & I took a drive over to a place we thought about camping g next. The road hasn't had any maintenance & would beat the trailers too much getting there. We did hike around a bit but found no shiny rocks.

Wind was down so we sat around a fire for the first time this trip. There were a few parachutes opened last night. I am told it was HALO training. High altitude, low opening.

Headed to town later this morning. Deb has visit the chiropractor again. Hopefully he will finish up this time.

We will likely be heading west then north into Imperial dunes near Glamis in the next day or so.

Frost on the Punkin if there are any Punkins out there, but a sunny and warming day. Yesterday after i fed the Damcows, i put another jack on the bushog...used the one from the hay rake and put a new harbor freight model on the rake.

My big accomplishment for the day was to take the OSHA mandated guts out of a couple gas or diesel jugs. Dont know if you have any of these, but its hard to pour diesel in a tractor tank at eye level with the spring loaded contraption that shuts the fuel off. Did a Skruske, watched YouTube videos and sawed it apart, added a new hose, since the original is split. Got a couple vent buttons on the way to complete the job.



Im going to clean the chimney today after i feed the Damcows and Otis Kat. Judy Brown is off on a mission.

40º and sunny, headed to the upper 60's in Middle TN today. Don't know if I logged in Monday to report, but we did open the new range on Sunday to a gathering of something over a hundred. We visited, made some swaps, shared some information and even burned a little powder. The Perfesser is here to work on the safety light wiring yesterday and today and he reports we had a dozen or so using the range yesterday afternoon. The power co came out and began setting poles as well, so things are moving. The weather forecast is much better. Even though next week will be cold, there is only a 50% forecast for rain a few days. I probably could have held our first match there Saturday, but it's best to let the grass grow for another month. Like is looking pretty good.

G'day Y'all,
Rick

Good morning everyone.... getting ready to head to the steel shop to pick up my other tool box door they broke for me. They forgot one the other day so another trip. I got all the door frames welded on and need to finish the boxes for 2 that go underbody the find the hinges I want to use. Also need to get some bulkhead fitting for the hydraulic lines for the air compressor and get my PTO plumbed in and mounted.

Jr I hate those damn cans with a passion. I bought one of those universal spout kits form TSC or some dam place and had a 5 gallon can tip over in the bed of my truck....well that nifty new spout popped out from the cap holding it on in the drive thru at Burger King leaving about 4 gallons on the ground.

The gov't sure can f#$k stuff up!

Another contest coming in March so might get in on that one too before season goes out.

Hope everyone has a good day!

Morning crew, 47 headed to 62 here in KY today! Another beautiful day on the way, the last 2 has been great, stayed outside as much as possible. I am making gains every day, small but gaining ground. Got to get going, got a lot to do today, remember those in need of prayer, Buff out!

 

[Kermit in Va.]

Yep Charlie..I'd love to be fishing but think we've missed part of the walleye run.
They were running in early January and then it started all this rain and the river has been up and muddy ever since. When it ain't raining, it cold and trying to snow.
Guess we'll just have to watch's at the dam this year. Backwater should be there by now.
