Good Monday morning Alabama, Steve, John and all the Dixie crew. It is a warm start to the day at 32°. I think this is only the second day my woods that we have started the day above freezing sense before Thanksgiving. Maybe 3 days!

I didn't get much accomplished this weekend other then go see mom, and her laundry. I have a load to take back clean today.

John, have a great day puttering around the shop!

Steve, hope your start to the week is great.

Good morning Rod, how's mom doing..? Not sure how much the puttering will accomplish today but gives me an excuse to get out of the house...
Hope your days off have been enjoyable so far Steve..

Good morning Alabama ,John, Rod, Buck and distinguished visitors. It is a sunny start to the day here. We still have spots of snow on the ground but the roads for the most part are clear..

Tasty Taco Tuesday evening Alabama, Steve, John, elusive Buck and all the crew.
Cold day in my woods this morning at 8°, topped out at 34° with some sun this morning and then the cloud cover and wind kicked in. 30° and to me feels like about -50!! LOL

We have plenty of White sheet and ice on everything and it looks like it will be hanging around for a while.

ThongTastic Thursday if you were a Polar Bear Alabama!
Steve and John, I hope Ma Nature has been kind to you. She has been a little nasty in my woods!

I am not sure if i will venture out today or the next few days.. i did get the igniter changed out in one of my pellet grills day before yesterday. Got one toilet constant running fixed and need to fix the other.. it is good that my HVAC has been replaced for all this cold weather that is happening..

That sounds pretty cold for you guys down there. We used to get weeks of -40's here in January and February but lately -30's have become the norm..
