    Ugh, that is the worst. Went through that with my grandfather. :( I'm sorry. The waiting for the inevitable is just torture.

    Go swing the axe a bit.

    Influenza B, the severe strain. Potentially deadly for seniors.

    It snowed most of the day but finally stopped. I put the tractor away and was walking to the house and really surprised to see this:

    A sign of spring for sure but the air does not feel like it yet.

    Also this morning I had to go to a meeting and on the way home I spotted a field that was loaded with white birds; either snow geese or swans. Too far out to tell.

    If it makes you feel any better, I did see and verify my first robin this afternoon. Alongside a roadway that had a bare strip of about 1' wide dirt! Poor thing is gonna die of starvation!

    My Toro Z turn battery went something like 13 years...must be a new record.
    The Rural King battery I replaced it with only went 2 years :picard:
    We also got 13 years out of a OEM Motorcraft battery at work :jaw: the parts guys at the dealership almost couldn't believe it...they said it was definitely the original battery, as you can't get the same battery's for replacement.

    Lol

    I'm in Florida right now.

    83° and 78% humidity today. It's still 76 outside at 9pm. IMG_20180409_144941616.jpg


    Tomorrow might be a little rainy, but still 76 for a high.

    That's no good.

    I'm not a religious person, but I've got her, and you in my thoughts right now.
