    I'm a bit sore today after splitting some large oak logs. Probably won't do any today but will try to get back to it soon.

    Good morning. Sounds like the brake job on the truck will only require the rear rotors/pads. Find out next week.

    Getting them installed on the 19th. To be perfectly honest, I don't remember the brand, but they look similar to the ones you got. $315 each installed.

    The ones I showed you from walmart would have been about 50% less with lifetime balance/road hazard/disposal

    The ones that came on it are Hankook. Terrible in the snow but quiet. Worn out after 27K miles.

    Had another great morning walk today. It was snowing the entire time but when I got home, it really began coming down. The lab mix is very grateful to be able to stretch his legs so early; the bernese stays home since he takes a few steps and stops -turning around wondering if 99 is behind us.

    Probably another fire to keep the house warm sometime today.

    I also hope to find a restaurant for Mother's Day Brunch.

    Vermont was the last state to get a Walmart, and the first one is tiny.

    Morning all. Cloudy with the sun peaking through. I think it is going to clear up and be nice. No rain in the foreseeable future.

    Blue Jays game this morning and then vacuuming the church. Prayer meeting tonight. campinspecter got the last of the firewood in the woodshed yesterday. Now we are waiting for the next load to be delivered. Very generous cord delivered.

    Everyone have a great day.

    I have known my aunt Jackie over 50 years; the chance of her seeing discussion on a firewood forum is :rofl: :lol::wacky:. Now a forum on homemade donuts and Whoopi’s pies

    Good morning everyone! The site has been out a couple times since I got up but seems to be working at the moment. I'm going to try to get more lumber cutoffs this morning, and after that?????

    Good morning, members.

    Rainy start. 49⁰/63⁰ sun eventually makes a showing

    I'll be paying mom a visit. Then, a visit to the hospital where my BIL was admitted yesterday with heart/lung issues.

    I need to run a few errands while I'm out.

    Be safe
    Be healthy
