    Morning All. Pouring rain outside so no walking. 7:00 AM and still dark out. Heavy overcast doesn't help though.

    mat60 nice pictures of your wife.

    Biddleman so sorry to hear about the decision you had to make. Enjoy the tree stand.

    MikeInMa You will have to do what Blue Jays fans do. Think positive about next year.


    In Paul's letter to the Philippians, he talks about our partnership with God. God gives us the desire to repent and the grace to forgive us. Without God, we are nothing. We have to choose to accept or reject salvation.

    Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. Philippians 2:12, 13

    Happy Sabbath everyone.

    Good morning everybody. Overcast in the 40s where it will stay for the day. Off and on showers.
    Have a safe trip Molly. Give Mark our best.
    Got the splitter back last nite. Chaz's sister is in town. Everybody hanging out at the barn. I was there for a short time. Cold out.
    Have a good day all.

    Well a good evening to all!

    Got some electrical work done in the basement, dropped off yard waste at the tree dump then helped my father in law install a new screen door.

    Heck even was able to watch part of the game where my Cyclones knocked off #8 Oklahoma State!

    Hope all goes well for everyone tomorrow!

    As many on here have found out before you, we are a family and we try to support each other. I pray that your days get better for you.

    Good morning y'all. Hope y'all have a SPECTACULAR SONDAY. Sitting here at my desk, enjoying a cup of coffee and watching dirt cook. 1024210427.jpg Going to church this morning, having a meal right after church and then, nap time. We got the load of wood delivered and on the way, a local deer camp called...they want a cord trailer load again this year...time to make more man glitter fly...probably start on that Monday morning.
    Enjoy this gift of today that GOD has given us.
    GOD LOVES YOU AND ME

    Good morning, everyone.

    Just lit the stove. 64⁰ in the house, 42⁰ outside. Refreshing air. Bright moon outside. Sunny day ahead.

    Dealing with a few things around the house, and running a few errands. Then, football.

    Stay safe
    Stay healthy

    What is this "cook dirt" that you mention, now and then?

    Good morning brother. It's 48° here, right now. Probably drop a few degrees about sun-up...

    If you look close at the top 2 pictures in my post above, the orange glow is the Kaolin clay, "dirt", coming from the bottom of 2 of the calciners that I operate. It is mined in our area, then processed to remove any sand or other impurities, when we get it from the raw material plant, it is a dry powder. There are quite a few different grades, we then blend them, grind them together, and passed through one of our calciners. It is then milled again, held in silos for bagging, bulk truck or rail car.

    Good morning everyone! 35° out this AM, guess I'll start a fire. I have my grandson today, and fortunately it'll be sunny. After today, several soggy days. I'm actually ready for some enforced inside time.
    It was a lot of fun meeting mat60! Meeting another FHC'er is always special.
    Still no frost in the forecast, which is weird. iCsaYGX.jpg Happy Sunday!

    Yea they looked the part, but we only got a good soaking rain. Most of the red cells went further south of us.
