    8°+F, slight breeze, clear skies, a skiff of snow in the night, sausage, onions and mushrooms in the skillet. Black locust in the stove. 1517923370333388822285.jpg

    10F here. A very thick bed of Maple coals with standing dead White Pine tossed on top.

    Yesterday morning I cleaned up 3-4 inches of snow we received. This morning looks like we have another 1-1/2” or so. Tomorrow they are calling for 5-8” for our area. We’ll see. I was enjoying working in the cold with little to no snow on the ground.

    LOL, I was raised by parents that grew up very rural during the Great Depression, we always ate a hearty breakfast to fuel a morning full of hard work.:flipeggs:

    I had a good breakfast, diced potatoes fried with bacon salt, 3 eggs , 3 link sausages and juice.
    I like onions but they don't like me early in the morning

    Gotcha! So far they don't bother me, but the ol' acid reflux has me backed off on the coffee. I lost a very close friend to esophageal cancer, so I take the acid reflux management very seriously.

    Take care of yourself, the hospital will take care of your Dad. Pseudoephedrine helps, I don't recommend the method below...

    Sorry to hear about all of the above. Hopefully nothing too serious with your dad. Watch out for yourself with that Flu.

    Wait a minute. My breakfast table has less bacon and more guns.

    Also a sewing machine for the wife.
