Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Some pretty heavy rain showers here today, but for the most part just scattered sprinkles. Looks like Chris may be getting lambasted over on the Coast. The cameras looked wicked.

Well, that 2.33" would go a lot further towards filling the duck pond up that the measly little .04" we've gotten so far. We do have a nasty 6 mph wind though with a storm busting peak gust of 12.5 mph!

Didn't' get any of the things done today that I should have. It's a lot of fun working in a carport that faces the direction the weather comes from.
I understand..... I work in an open driveway.......

I sure wish I had a big shop. Oh well, Remember; Life IS Good !!

I did mention to her last night that we needed to buy one of those sooner rather than later. Also mentioned we could pick up a used 317G and cutter for around $55,000 ...that's why I'm so late getting on today, I'm just now regaining consciousness.
Glad to hear you survived the beating....... Sure would be nice to have toys like that....
You could remind her that "He who dies with the most toys/tools wins"

Then again.....Maybe you shouldn't.

Sounds cold and too dry for real snow. Don't miss those days. Born and raised in Alaska, loved it and would have move back if I could have talk the wife into it. But now I have too many body parts that hurt when it's that cold.
