    I'm very happy that the weather decided to "give a bit back" this weekend.
    It's been a hateful winter, and a crappy spring so far.


    Hope everyone stays safe in their travels, and stops by eatonpcat to eat some of the masses of beans he has.;)

    Of course, that makes for some "interesting times" an hour or 2 down the road.:fart:

    The party has broken up but the memories will be forever. A super big thank you to all who attended and even to those who planned on attending but for some reason or another some could not make it. We were happy to see several new faces this year too and very happy to have helped out a neighbor who was in need of some help.

    Will be posting more later and do have a few pictures but very few. Fortunately I saw many folks taking pictures with their phone cameras so hoping they will post more too.

    Meanwhile, I might be out breaking in that new saw! Thanks guys and gals.

    The GTG was mostly Friday and Saturday but our first guest came Wednesday night. Thursday he and I worked a bit to get ready for the others and he snapped this picture so we could show what it was like before the party began. We got the ice off our porch steps. Later this day several other members came in but most of the snow and ice had melted by the time they got here, thankfully. Then on Friday and Saturday the temperature was in the high 50's and may have hit 60. Today it is 61 and bright sunshine with very little breeze. Absolutely fantastic!

    This is Jim, one of our neighbors. He is the fellow we helped out by cutting and splitting wood that he will burn next winter.

    This is Jim's tractor.

    Barcroftb up in tree. A big thank you goes out to him and Cole for helping with some trimming and taking down one of Judy's prized trees (it really had to go).

    Picture of him from the other side of the house. (Notice all the smoke coming from the chimney?) 101_0170.JPG


    The rest of these pictures were taken by walt's wife.
