Great conversations going today, I only had time to skim through them while at werk. I'm home, got the woodstove converting dead trees into radiant heat. I need to go unload more wood from Prudence, the bed is about 1/4 filled. It's chilly, 35° and going lower to mid 20's tonight, then only getting to freezing for the high tomorrow. Yuck. 3 more weeks until the winter solstice, I can make it....

 

Evening everyone

Cold temps today here in Middle Tennessee , stayed inside my place to stay warm !!!!

 

I fired mine up today in the shop to smoke it off. (oil i put on it to stop rust.) got it jumpin up and down hot. its ready to go.

 

when in my stand i take pics.

 

When I take pics, I stand

 

It's that time of year when it is too cold for the AC to kick on, and too warm for the heater.

It's been nice, 65° during the day, 45° at night.


No sign of rain.






And how is everyone else?

 

Nothing has changed nor improved for me. Got my booster this morning and now feel like caca. Lucky if it hits the mid 30’s tomorrow with the cold moving in. I need to find someplace warm to spend my winter while wifey stays home to work. #retirement_life

 

we are looking at high’s in the 30’s tommorow with 15-25mph winds also. ill be in the shop by the wood stove

 

They'll probably jack up the rent to pay for the repairs...

 

You should put a couple of signs at either edge of your property line that say "SMILE, YOU'RE ON CAMERA " It wouldn't hurt to put a couple game cameras up too, but the sign alone might reduce some of the dumping on your property.

 

I've had mine going for about 3 weeks, mostly in the evenings. The electric heat pump doesn't do anything note worthy once the night time temps got below 40°. Do you do any cooking on top of yours? I've been cooking veggie pouches/trays and making coffee so far, I want to try something different.

Time for a big 'Bio Hazzard' sign for the front of the building? I hope that the mold hasn't made you or other tenants sick.

 

Well the guy was awesome, beautiful "century" farm, barndominium. Great deal and he's going to keep it until I get this 302 motor moved to the new location.
I'm stoked and now heading out west for a tour on the Nationals will be easier than pulling the trailer.

Happy belated birthday to the birthday boys

Hope mom is on the mend Paul

evening gang. Hope everyone had a marvelous Thanksgiving / weekend. Nothing like one grandboy get diagnosed with strep and the other one has pneumonia and now I have a sore throat

 

on my way up the drive tonight... looked over at a red maple we put in a few years back.

absolutely gorgeous tree when leaved. evidently a buck tore into that thing last nite. he shredded about a foot of that tree!

they usually go wild on my fruit trees or young trees. never seen one get all fired up on a MAPLE!
this tree is about 6" diameter & 25' high.

will try to get a pic tomorrow. my wife is furious. told her that she is the one who feeds & names them.... this is what she gets for it.

ugh. she said what she gets is that im gonna get out there tomorrow in the 30* and put a cage around that tree.

yeah im living the dream.

 

Good Morning Everyone!
No blizzard yet... fingers crossed its not so bad. I need to get the snow-blower out and fire it up, check oil, etc
Coffee time!

 

Good morning everybody
