Stay tough on that rehabilitation / physical therapy, when the time comes. Good luck with the right ankle. At least your getting it done before Summer.

Thanks Tim, I decided to wait until October for the Right side, that would have ruined this coming summer , well if we don’t get a good snow pack to fill the lakes and Irrigate , summer as we know it will be done, went out to New Hogan and Woodward res , man the water is waaaaaay out in the middle, not as bad as 2014/2015 but headed there.the scary part I barely keeped the Pasture green last year , had to compensate and supplement the heard , I have a feeling this year I better stock the barn early.Google better direct those rays and make it happen.

It is both beautiful and terrifying at the same time. Our total rain for the season is about 20% of "normal".

Love popping around in a T-shirt in February though.

Spent this morning prepping our utility trailer for re-decking. Was able to get about 10% of the screws to back out of the frame (along with what seemed like a gallon of peneatrating oil). After spending too much time on that, I got out the portable band saw and sawed off the rest. Will run down to HD tomorrow to pick up a new set of pressure treated deck boards.

Hi guys (and gals). We had a field trip up to Oaktown yesterday. I was quite surprised that the OAT was showing 74 as we crossed the San Mateo bridge. This IS February. Right?

Yes indeed. It has been unusually warm here lately. I am hoping this does not mean we are in for a brutal summer heat wave.
