That's why I got as much snow out of the low spots in the yard that I could, left the snow alongside the north side of the fence and let it melt on its own, grass is dry but the loam is wet enough to feed the roots.

I cleaned most of my yard before it got too soft. The exposed areas are good for the most part but some of the shaded areas still need a few more days.

I have all the framing done and the tub sitting in place, some plumbing to do tomorrow and assemble the tub and secure it in place, then it's back to finishing the floor and putting the new vanity and toilet in place. Should be finished soon..

Good afternoon folks.

Another fine day out here, getting the first raking done on the front yard and doing a bit of detail landscaping to make the yard presentable, that way the neighbors will think I'm a bum with class. Cats are helping by keeping the shade cool and protecting me from birds and squirrels, the birdseed bell and peanuts don't help their cause much. Might get rain on Sunday which will be good for a day off for the races.
Hope your all working hard so as to make up for me slacking off.

Hello Perry, it was a fine day here too, our warmest one so far this yr.
I always thought that it`s important to be a bum with class.
We might get just a little bit of rain on Monday,Tuesday but it doesn`t sound very serious so far.
No help from me, I`m really slacking off too.

Good evening everyone, took the day off today, too sore to do anything and also discovered I needed a few more plumbing supplies. When we got back home I went out to start the trucks and discovered one of my trickle chargers was crap, it said it was charged but the battery was as dead as a door nail, the panel fired right up first turn of the key. Did get the pickup started after I put the fast charger on it though and took it out for a little drive around town...

Yesterday was a shop remodeling day so Sally was helping to clean up the sawdust around the chopsaw.

I was going to post a picture of Sally covered in sawdust but after 4 attempts using my phone and waiting 6 minutes for the picture to upload using this computer I got real sick and tired of putting up with BS, would be nice if FTE would stop making this site user friendly, was better when I could upload pictures.

Always nice to get a ride in John, I plated my stock 53 M100 and the 64 XL today.
I have a few problems with the changes made on FTE but posting pictures here isn`t one of them Perry.

Happy Friday Mornin'all. Heavy North wind's today, but supposed to be gorgeous all weekend. Dawn is going out of town for a week today, so I'm Kalan's sport chauffer for a week. Finishing off hockey, and baseball is in full swing. Have a great day guy's.

Good morning flat landers

God must hate you John, what did you do to him to deserve all this never ending snow.
