John, Hope the white sheet is light in quantity and weight!

Steve, more Christmas money to be made today despite the cold. Another layer of clothes to keep you warm.
Mostly light powdery crap Rod, blowing and drifting. There is plenty more accidents and road closures because of them today..

ThiongTastic Thursday Alabama, Steve, John, Buck and all the crew. Cold 23° this morning, sun is out bright but nothing too warm about it and headed to a high of about 27°.
Rain last night turning to Ice, very light skiff of white sheet and very high winds has caused some problems in my woods. Many without power, trees down and the ice caused plenty of accidents.

I was blessed and I am OK but plenty are not and the power restoration for those out of power is listed at 2200 tonight! We will see!
OH, and Mom is one of them. Good part is she has alternate heat source and should be safe.

Wondrous Weekend Eve Alabama, Steve, John and all the crew. Cold here again with 14° to start, windchill of 10°, nice bright sun is out but not warm, headed to maybe 27° and we still have a cold 5-10mph wind!
Steve, I hope you had extra coat, hat, gloves and a nice pair of bibs to help with the cold!

John, I hope Ma Nature was kind last night and didn't dump on you. I saw you said -20° and I wouldn't be out the door until spring!

I hope everyone has a good and Blessed day!

Morning Steve, like you, tonight and tomorrow will be a repeat of the last several days.
OH, I feel for you and the cold on the Fork truck. Our freezer at the Sammich Factory is -4°f and on the fork truck you could spend 30 to 40 minutes in there moving product around, in and out! So, I know! The good part, the company had a 30 minute policy is properly dressed!

Have a great day and stay warm! OH, I wish we would reach 40!

We bought 4 turkeys on Monday to feed the dogs. Two were brought in Monday to thaw and were fed Wednesday, Thursday and today. The other two were left in the back of the Escape and brought in yesterday about 1400 to thaw. They were still frozen solid!!

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

Sensational sunny Saturday morning Alabama, Steve, John and all the Dixie crew.

John, hope the cleanup went well and no more fell. What is on the agenda, shop time or stay in, stay warm and cuddle with honey!

Steve, I hope you had a great Weekend Eve Party and ready for the day. Do You get to play in the open cab Fork truck today?

Started the day at 17°, sunny, cold breeze but the Soothsayers say we will be a sunny 43° today in my woods. I may have to enjoy the heat wave and put the Thong on and clean the yard!

Have a great and Blessed day!

Afternoon Steve, and we are 38° up from 17° and maybe we may make the 43° predicted!
Good thing the wind had died down but the Fingers are out there and always catching the breeze of the Fork truck zooming around! LOL

Have a great day!

Good afternoon Rod and Steve, I was out in the shop Rod and seeing what I'm facing with the install of this vintage air kit, it's a sure fit kit but it's looking different to me..
