Nothing new for me either Sherm but I still hate wind..........Except if it`s really hot then the wind is ok.

Your right, no more flies or mosquitoes.
Next it`ll be snow banks all around us, oh well, at least we can look forward to spring, more flies and mosquitoes..........Some things never change

There's no need to have a wind greater than 20 knots!!!! After that it's too much. And the snow????? It's white here this morning....

Iwas trying to do work around the acreage today. That wind was just about lifting me airborne. At one point going into the house the wind darn near took the door off the hingesand me with it. I could not pull the door shut due to the wind holding it open for a good minute.
Loaded a truck that I sold here with extra hoods. It was help then psuhing the truck onto the trailer. He was taking it to a another place where a semi trailer was to load it and take it to Alberta.
No it was not a ford. It was a 66 GMC parts truck. Belonged to a friend storing it here. Glad to see it gone. NOw does anyone want a cheap Chevy truckwinter beater. No extra cost for the rust.

I finished the flax in the wind yesterday, thank god that's finished. Way to much straw to go through the combine, on the up side it ran 30 bu/ac.
