60+ year old thread.

Welcome, SeaTurtle. All the cool kids hang out here.

I'm ready to call it a night. Sawzall has been hard at work clearing falling limbs. Nap before dinner sounds good.

 

Coyotes chased a cow into pond one night it drowned I went hunting

 

60+ is good enough. It was discussed about a 70+ thread since some of us are there already, but most agree the 60+ should stay as is.

Welcome seaturtle, first fill the cooler and join us on the porch, diverse interests on here, and a good group. Pics. are always welcome and our mother hen Sue always enjoys doggie pics. as well as others.

Welcome. Feel better soon.

so sorry. Does the owner make sure the dog is better contained now?

OMG. That's horrible. Happy you survived and are doing well now.

welcome

for doggo pics

Evening boys

 

Hey, I just watched the news and saw the temps and wind chill the northeast is going to get. For anyone in the path of that I hope you take it seriously and batten down the hatches. Be sure to bring any animals into some kind of shelter or windbreak if they are too big to bring inside.

 

-42° windchill now. Furnace running all the time..

 

Evening all! Welcome, and thanks for filling the cooler newbies! You'll see that 60+ is old enough to cover it all!

Glad I had no downed tree limbs to deal with; the ones I had to work with were pre-downed and cut. Little rack is full again with about a weeks worth of split. Only bad news is that stupid storm left us with one small patch of cloudy all afternoon long. Never broke 50*....oh well.

 

-42 That is cold. It was 25 degrees here for 48 hours people freaked out panicked like a hurricane was coming. I'm sure you know what to do. Be careful and warm

 

Where is "here"?

You can put it on your profile so we all know what you're talking about.

 

Our town was like, "Oh hell no! Once a dog like that bites, it WILL bite again; it's going down."

 

My wife and I lived (as caretakers) on a horse farm up here in New Hampshire until about a year ago; whenever temperatures would get south of 10°F we'd keep the horses in the barn 24/7 until things warmed up. I talked with the family who owns the farm today; the horses were brought in early afternoon and will probably be kept in all day tomorrow, on Sunday the temperatures will be up in the mid forties so they'll go out. I might drive over there to watch, when they're first let out of the barn after a couple of days they are really funny.

 

Good morning fellow Porchatonians and welcome to the new folks!!

It's -6F here in northeast PA with a wind chill of '23. The dogs made quick work of doing their morning business when I took them out a few minutes ago.

 

We're at 12°F this morning, better than expected. Thankful to be a bit southwest of the worst. Hope no one has furnace issues today. No outside work planned. Maybe just enjoy the fireplace. Forecast 47°F this afternoon.

 

Good morning. Welcome Charlie and @seaturtle . I am 73 and a half, so getting closer to 80, I guess. The knee replacement posts are interesting. My orthopedic doc is not recommending a knee replacement but when I talked to my GP doc, he said I should consider it. I was asking him for a permanent Disability placard for me and not the temporary one, which I currently have. Truthfully my left knee, bone on bone does not have any pain, just a discomfort when going up stairs. I will probably be asking questions as I do the research. Right now, I am concentrating on taxes. I have all the documents together and an appointment with the tax accountant this Tuesday.

15 degrees here this morning. The wind was blowing all day yesterday as the front moved through the area. Gym opens up at 8 and I will be there. I need to keep up with the cardio.

 

-10 this morning in Eastern CT. Wind has easied up some...was brutal overnight. I'll take it over what Tacoma Mike has going on in Maine.

 

Yea isn’t fun.
-47° is nothing to sneeze at.
Had both faucets cracked last night.
New furnace is wide open. 60° downstairs 65° upstairs. That’s all she has. Going to add more fins in the baseboards downstairs thus summer. Lots of unused pipe….
New furnace quirks..
