Evening Tim, Wayne, Ken, Nickolas and Preston. We occasionally see snow geese flying over heading South but never have I seen them bunched up like that. Cool.

That's actually just a handful of them. When they're not out feeding, there's thousands of them wall to wall on the water, honking 24/7. They never sleep, I swear. But when they lift off in their giant swarm, it is a sight to behold. Totally amazing.

7 December 1941, A Day to remember those who lost their lives, those injured and those who had to live with the memory's! A moment of silence for them all!

Sensational Saturday morning Washington, Tim, Preston, Wayne, MA Ken, 350 Ken, Steve, Nicolas and all the crew I missed.

Tim, I am with you on the plow and ice. Plowing is great but you must treat with something after that!

Preston, have fun with the U Joints. After having the pleasure of a shop with an arbor press, I never liked doing them again the hard way. LOL I hope they are easy!

Wayne, I would say they are noisy based on the large flocks of geese we have, and I have been around. I bet it is a sight to see when that many do take flight.

I hope everyone had a great Weekend Eve Party and didn't overdo it so you can have a good and Blessed day!

Goos morning all,

The rain has come back but it is oddly warmer than normal. It was like 51 last night.

The man who raised me was a WW2 vet.

Started the day at 28° it warmed up a bit then it started raining lightly causing everything to become very slick.

Nickolas, My dad was in the Army/Air force during WWII, he went in in 1942.

A press does help with universals, but a large vise also works well.

Good Morning All,

Heading up 20 in the jeep to find snow. The new puppy hasn't experienced yet, hopefully we find a place to sled.

Not sure what Grampa did or went into the war. He refused to talk about it. All I know was he was in Austria at some point.

Started the day at 29° at 0700, it is up to 36° and sunny right now at 1000.

Nickolas, I hope you find some snow for your new puppy and you find enough to go sledding, sounds fun!

Went up to Marblemount and then back tracked to Baker lake. Most I found was thick rain and some slush up at Panorma point.

Joyous Sunday evening Washington, Tim, Nickolas, Steve, Preston, Wayne, Ken, Ken and all the crew.
For one I wasn't in the winter land of Frozen. Woke to 39°, sun, made it to 62° and sunny. There was a rather cool stiff breeze in the afternoon for a very short time. The NICE!!
If I hadn't been at Mom's for the day but at home, I could have donned the Thong and worked outside. Wifey could have gotten some pictures! By the time I did get home it is still a warm 50° but dark, so the pictures wouldn't have turned out! Sorry to disappoint everyone!

Nickolas sorry the puppy didn't get to play in any snow!

Tim, hope you had a great day.
