Sold the baby. Baby pig that is. Know I will have a lot more time not having to feed that piglet every couple of hours. Or worry that it is warm enough.

Good evening. No snow here, but low of 23 forecast for tonight. I'll need to watch for ice on my way to work.

Morning clear and 28 at the compound. Sweet home is 27 usually I'm colder since I'm about 500' higher but kinda in a bowl that traps heat sometimes. If you can call 1 degree heat. I have seen up to 12 degrees difference and less than 3 miles from my compound to Sweet Home.

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Started out at 23, made it up to 25 and now it's started going the wrong way and we are down to 24.7. Heavy freezing fog at the moment here in the River Bottom. Clear just a few miles away at the farm. Ducks were far and few between this morning.

The factory block was 3-1/8", the replacement block out of a 2016 f250 was 1-7/8". It did drop the 1-1/4", I measured. I still have a little over 2" of rake.

Good evening Ford Fans. I got to run a new to me delivery route today, it breaks up the day to day monotony of deliveries.
I will see in the morning how much work I can get done with the weather guessers dooms day forecasts brings tomorrow.
