    Good morning. Clear blue skies and on it's way to 50 degrees!!
    Loaded the truck down to the bump stops yesterday with an odd mix of cherry, poplar and hedge. It took a few cold frosties last evening to get it all in the woodshed but I got'er done.
    Now it's off to enjoy this nice weather doing absolutely nuthin' today.
    Have a good day and be safe doing it. Peace.

    I always enjoy the warm Smoke ole buddy, for example it is now +22 F and rising. Plenty sunny this morning, last night it was calm and clear so the temps did their nosedive. It was around 3 F when I paused the old John Wayne western I was watching and called it a night.

    Still below zero out that a way?

    Those temps don't look like planting will do any good to me.

    We are going to get a little warm spell followed by more climate weirding o_O .

    Picked up a new/used oven for our house after work. Soon as i got home i got a call saying my new safe was in at the lowes i just drove right past! Guess I'm headed to lowes in the am :thumbs:. It arrived a month early so now im scrambling to make a path through the basement to get this 700lb monster to its final resting place.

    Holy Hanna it hit 52f today they only called for 38! awesome day too. My buddy came over and we dropped the new motor in which went pretty well over all. The trans was a bit of a surprise but went well over all and we hit it on the first shot which never happens In my experience.... Bolting it up that sucked big stinky 267?-7 but it is what it is.:confused: The whole thing took about 2 hours to drop in and bolt up so tomorrow if I work strait for a couple hours the old girl should be running on a new 350! :D

    Did manage to get in the woods for two hours yesterday afternoon. Trimmed up and bucked up some of those trees I dropped for the section of road I am making. Getting some caffeine in me right now, then a light breakfast, to go back to work on it this morning. It was real nice yesterday afternoon to feel some warmer temperatures. And it did not get too cold last night. Today should be a good day for working in the woods.

    That's tonight?! Holy chit, I did not know that. Have not been paying attention I guess. LOL. I'm going to be a little groggy in the morning, but it won't be from losing sleep. I plan on having a couple :drunk: and going to bed early!

    We watched Free Birds with the kids early last night. Then wife and I watched the second Hunfer Games movie. She read all those books. Pretty good. Tonight it is one of those new space movies, can't remember the name of it dammit. Got great reviews.
