    Dennis Lewan was the artist of the picture but you are right - It does look like a Kinkade.

    Beware seizing up too haha. Gotta keep going, and as long as I'm under contract for snow clearing days off are of limited use to me. Rather make money

    Lol. Now that's in my head again. However, no, that won't go on my playlist for out on the boat. I don't want everyone to have that song in their heads.

    It's actually the intercoastal area, so dolphins and manatees will be happy we won't have the coco jambo on. :cool:

    Probably head out to the cottage and mount that led light fixture to the ceiling today

    I ended up returning the one to home depot and grabbing another (from Walmart) that is brighter and less expensive.

    Hope it'll work as it looks like there may be a little challenge mounting it to the ceiling.

    Hey wildwest, here’s your reminder for when Horkn gets to boating in the next few months. :D

    You might have a really long wait. Haven't see Zap on here since last summer or fall. I was told though that he went back to the dark side.

    A warm night and warm day but windy. Might hit 60 today they say then rain/snow...

    Heard more frogs yesterday afternoon so should for sure hear more today.

    Bad news. Road crews are getting ready to work on the state highway near us and I had asked for wood chips because they are clearing the ditches too. They are almost done and I didn't get even one load. Oh well. We still have some in a pile. We'll be putting some on the raspberry patch and the rest will go in low spots.

    Yes. It is wetter at the bottom of a hill than at the top.

    So some idiot rented the boat yesterday and ran it into a sand bar and it ate the impeller up. The boats in the shop getting the impeller replaced and a tune up. So no boat today. Hopefully tomorrow..... At least we didn't pay up front.

    We took the pups to the dog beach again, and we're at the regular beach now chilling to non coco jambo tunes. It's a toasty 81 degrees and all sun. I'll post up pictures later. When I am on Wi-Fi.

    New led light fixture at cottage went up without any complications. Murphy must be visiting someone else. I left the doors open while I was working of the project and heard what I thought were a couple sand hill cranes over the ice on the lake, so that's a good sign. Lake is still full of ice with no signs of letting up as the yard is still full of snow also.

    I think it may have been a simple case if a lack of common Sense. It's apparently not so common. No word yet from the rental guy.
