Welcome to February Chat Thread !!!!!

Good morning everyone,
I hope that everyone is doing fine today and has made it thru the storms last night. I have a few small limbs/twigs in the yard but no damage.

Looks like old man winter has returned..... dang I hate the cold.

I like the warm weather except for the bugs.
Honey do's are pretty much complete for me- that I know of.

Good morning everyone,
I spend all weekend working on the yard. I hate oak trees. Trying to get eveything squared away since daddy passed and I was gone overseas. Packing to head off to school this afternoon. Thank goodness it is only 2 hours from home. It won't be too bad if I get to come home on the weekends. I will check in everynight and see what you all are up too. :-)

No damage on our property from the stormy weather, but that's as high as I've ever seen the creeks!!!

Then, we got close to 5" of SNOW!!!!!!!!!! The kiddo's (and ME) had a great time sledding down the hills all weekend. The sun came out Sunday and it was nearly 50* - great for playing outside, then enjoying some hot chocolate!!! Its all gone now except a couple spots that stay in the shade all day... I'll try to post a few pics later.

I hope everyone else fared well. Those tornadoes tore up stuff about 80mi from here... I know Joey and Phil aren't too far from where they touched down.

That's too close for comfort, Chief!! Glad y'all fared well.

Good luck in class! I've found that airline-sized bottles of booze are a much better way to impress the instructor than apples.... Jus' sayin!!!

Hi Guys,

I was worried but it all came out good. I hate bad weather, I use to live in Florida so I keep an eye on it after going thru a few hurricanes.

Well the first day was long, they usually are. Good thing is we have weekends off and I am close enough to the house to be able to go home. I will have to study and work but at least I will be at home- Home cooking !!!!

I did the first part of this course over 2 years ago. Since then the files I had done and have to brief become corrupted. The instructor had to search the archive files and hopefully find it. If not, I would have had to redo both the slides and the hard copy brief. They took me weeks to complete. He found them today and all is good to go. He drinks bud light, now the questions are how many, what size, glass or can!!!!

No rain here,just clouds. We need some bad though. Had a good week at the shop last week. I did get the 94 cleaned up this afternoon after playing in the mud hole over the weekend.

You would have fun going up and down the dirt road in front of our house. I have the basic layout done on my paper, a night or two of polishing and it should be done. Another full day of classroom instruction tomorrow, heading off to get some rest so I don't fall asleep in class...
