Good Morning!!!!!!

[glenn57]

LPS, shadow drives Sue nuts to when I don't take him with  and he sits on my lap at least 3-4 times a day!!

[LPS]

Same here.  When I put my blackout eye covers on ($10 Amazon) he knows it is time to jump in my lap.  This is right after lunch, usually lasts about an hour.  Feels great!

[LPS]

Morning boys.  It is a balmy -24 here.  Will be for a few more nights too.  Gonna burn up a lot of wood.  Not much wind at the moment.  Didn't take the dogs long to do their business this morning.  All excited as usual to go out but were both holding feet up as they approached the door to come in.  I keep a close watch on them so they don't have to wait to get in in this weather.  Cooper did lay beside me and at my feet last night so I think he still does love me even after I deserted him.  LOL  Will grain the horses twice today.  Well coffee is about ready so see ya later.  Be careful out there.

Mornin gang, 1 here with -17 WC. Looked out the garage ~ 10 last night & it was still lightly snowing. Most of the reports around us were of around 4". So, we'll be getting suited up to move that 1st thing. No more now, stay warm & have a good day.

[mike89]

mornin all, -16 or something like that here...  cold cold cold for the forecast...   seems like the benefit was a success..  at least there was lots of folks there...   staying warm is the mission for the week I'm thinking!   have a good day all...

[Jerkbiat]

Morning boys. -18 here. Just having a bowl of corn Chex before I head out fishing. I will fish until noon or 1. Then come in and load the woodshed. Your are right on LPS. We are going to burn some wood the next week for sure. Have a good one boys.

Mornin peoples was 0 here when I went out to retrieve the paper , now is -4. Not much going on today besides some football later on, the oldest came over yesterday,  we made a pretty good dent in a box of beer, 2 bags of wings on the Traeger and 2 frozen zas in the oven. Paper is read and coffee is about wrapped up....See ya!!

[Boar]

Fun time bob!! Good for yu! Stayed home this weekend. Had detail the Boars nest, cause were selling it its looin good!! Gona to some ribs! Watch some footbal, cater to the wife! And piddle around! Have a great day

[LPS]

Great plan Jeff.  I think I will do some ribs in the oven so I don't have to be outside any more than I have to.  I just started using my small propane torch for the browing process and works great.  Kind of fun too. 

[markn]

Found a ceiling mounted furnace for the garage yesterday in Sauk Center. 130,000 BTU should be able to warm it up. Not much on the agenda for today other than football, maybe do a couple of steaks on the Pit Boss later today.
 LPS, that snowmobile race continues today also. We had plans to go up, but I didn't feel like standing outside at minus 8 for two to three hours each day. Plus heating up the schoolhouse, which would have taken a day, so we stayed home instead. Have a great day all, later.....

[dutchboy]

-20 right now in International Falls. So nice to have the sun up when I get moving and until the news starts at night.

Nothing so fancy as ribs for this boy today, likely Corn Dogs in the microwave.   

Remember, San Fran & Bengals are your winning picks today.

Have fun, stay safe.

Mornin' comrades! -5 at choretime heading for a high around 1 above. Wasn't much wind during chores so it felt warmer than it did last nite. Fed the lamb born on Monday a bottle after chores. She looked a little hunched up even though her mouth was warm. She glugged it right down so will keep supplementing her until the weather warms up. Her mother has milk but tough to tell how much or what quality it might be. Should haul the garbage out sometime today. Otherwise staying inside until chores.

Not a good way to go..

[mike89]

[Bobberineyes]

I'm guessing he had a belt on hooked to the rod. But ya never know.

[LPS]

What a shame.  What a way to go. 

[glenn57]

  mission accomplished....garage warmed to about 30, got the truck hood lever back in place....and all things put away!!!!! missed the opening drive of the 49ers game but also got a couple closets cleared out!!!!!

[LPS]

30 what did you use a milk house heater???  One of the retirement things is that you have to be able to heat up a garage/shop doesn't it???   You need to insulate.

Morning guys.....-22 here now. High going for -4 today. Trying to keep my minnows alive. In the garage during the day. In the house at night. To cold for one and to warm for the other. Waiting for it to warm up this weekend so I can get back out on the lake.

Mornin' comrades! -11 at choretime heading for a high around 0. Chores done,  Poppy fed, so time to put the feed bag on meself. Need to make a run to the feed store for a bag of milk replacer then swing by the office to sign the guest book. Do some banking, hit the post office & so some other business stuff then haul the wife to therapy this afternoon. Need to pump up the tire on her car 1st. Usually those stupid sensors on this car just cry wolf but this time there was actually one that was low.
