[LPS]

Morning boys.  It is -3 here now.  It was -9 at 6.  Looking forward to those 30's this weekend.  Maybe I will even drill some test holes.  I watched that game for awhile too but gave up early.  He doesn't like to lose.  Not a lot going on here today and that is fine with me.  I do have to go get oats for the horses.   Well have a good one.

Mornin gang, 23 here & we're on our way to 36. Some snow for Thursday pm and/or Friday am in our forcast too. Kind of looks like we might need the blower this time as I'm hearin 5-8". I heard the roads were good by mid-morning yday. A few in the ditch early on The Avenue this side of Mason City though. The garbage can needs to go out to the curb but after that............ No more now, hopin your Tuesday's a good 1.

morning fellers......well all is well in shadow land this morning!!!!!!!! gonna fire up the snowblower to make sure and guess who's staying in the house!!! check the lines on my winter rods and i'll be set!!!!!!

Yesterday's scouting drive didn't produce anything except one hen pheasant. No deer. Would just to see where they are. Oh well. Definitly going to get the trailer cleaned off today, might have to haul the SxS to Osakis and put it in BIL's coop. That'll give me some more wiggle room in the garage. Have a great day all, later....

Mornin' comrades! 11 for the low at choretime, heading for a high around 30. Lots of odds & ends today including finishing an article, picking up around the house, & getting mentally prepared to haul chit. Company expected this a.m. so showering & cleaning myself up needs to happen as well. Best get at it. We're burnin' daylight..

I didn't realize you call the gin delivery truck driver company??

[Dotch]

Don't you have some 'baccy to smoke in the break room? 

[mike89]

so I went to Alex this morning to have my truck bed topper repaired..   the cord to pull the slides out was broke...  truck was clean when I left...  got behind a truck pre treating the roads..  went from clean to salty colored...    oh well......

[glenn57]

nope..........

Finished salting the last 60 hides that were thawing out in a heated garage. We are now officially done for the season. Just under 1100 hides which is in line with the 11% decline in harvest levels according to the DNR.  Glad that's done for the year. Well, at least close. We still need to have them picked up by the hide buyer.

[markn]

That’s better than us. We’re down 17% this year on hides. Got one project done so far. Bought a beef strip loin for $6.99 a pound yesterday, now it’s 19 steaks for $100.81. Our USDA inspector was on site too. He looks a lot like a springer spaniel. 

[LPS]

I like buying loins and doing that.  Good looking inspector you have there.  What's his name?  I would faint if they were ever $6.99 lb here. 

[glenn57]

  thought that Mikey guy would be lurking when you said meat inspector!!😂😂

[mike89]

It's Pearl Harbor Day today too...   

[Jerkbiat]

Morning boys. Had -19 at home and seen -27 a couple miles down the road from home. Supposed to get to zero or 1 above today. Making some ice it is for sure. We maybe got an inch of snow yesterday evening. Can't say I did much last night other than clean off the sidewalks. Just another day in the salt mines here. Have a good one boys.

[LPS]

Morning boys.  It is -18 here.  Brrr..   Not too excited to even go outside but will have to later.  The poor horses.  Hard to believe all of the animals can handle it.  May have to make some soup today.   

[Gunner55]

Mornin gents, 17 & under a dense fog advisory 'til 10. We won't quite get a warm(34) as yday, they're saying. Some snow on the way starting ~ 6 tomorrow & the latest prediction for us, I've seen, says 5". Nothin on the calendar again today & that's OK. Have a good day.

[KEN W]

Good Morning.....-5 here this morning. Had a couple inches of snow. Going into Fargo for a root canal this morning.....not fun.

[mike89]

yup no fun there...   

[LPS]

Oh boy.  FUN!

[markn]

My USDA inspector is Tripp. He also makes sure the floor stays clean too. Our daughter found the lion at Eldon's in Alex. not sure how long they will be on sale. We're having a couple of them $5.00 steaks on the grill tonight. Looks like a couple of inches on snow in the driveway and I'll be putting a plow on the truck. Have a great day all, later.....

[glenn57]

morning fellers......looks like we may have an inch of snow.....mayhaps a tad more. think i seen 11 for a temp.

wifey is supposed to take up residence here at home sometime today.

dotch.......your skidloader free?????

Mornin' comrades! 14 at choretime heading for a high in the low 20's. Light fog earlier but just frosty now. More errands this a.m. Skidsteer is available glenn altho I got the chains on the tractor yesterday. It stayed frozen in front of the barn so I didn't look like you after a night of mud wrestling cougars!  Blasted a hole thru the snowbank on the end of the windbreak. Now I can get out to the field with the tractor & chitspreader. 

[mike89]

how is she going to get up stairs??  did you get the elevator?? 

[Dotch]

Betting that might be what he wanted the skidsteer for!
