Afternoon boys. It was a fun weekend of fishing with my buddies that I used to work with. Fished from noon Friday until 9:30 Sunday morning. The bite was slow, but we had fun. Drank some beers and talked smart. After they left I went out yesterday afternoon and chiseled and chopped for 2-3 hours. That breaker was really being a bugger. Was 4'-5' wide of open water. So I filled it in with all the busted up ice and snow. Worked good. I was able to pull my big wheel house in. So that is on shore now. Yes Glenn, I could see on of the flipped over fish houses. It was about a half mile north of mine. One of those alumalite houses, probably 6x12. Another neighbor had his moved. Otherwise just making my way thru another day in the salt mines. Have a good one boys.

Mornin all, we've got 30 here & we might see 35. :scratch: The hourly is saying that there's not much of a chance (10-15%) for any moisture here. Not much in the planning stages here today.............so I'll have to see what jumps in front of me. No more now, have a good day.

Morning boys.  We have a cloudy morning here.  The birds are busy in the feeder.  It is 27 and we could see 36.  Then just low 30's till Sat when we may see 40 again.  Slight chance of some precip here but no amounts.  Think I will go get rid of some stuff at the landfill this morning.  I am getting a snowplow cutting edge from a buddy that I will make a cutting edge for the Ex.  Those big teeth will be nice for some things but need a smooth edge for some things too.  Other than that not a lot going on and that is fine with me.  Glad it is not colder.  Have a good day.

After yesterday I see a 20 gallon parts washer in the very near future. Like today. I did get two hydro hoses off the quick attach and now remember what a crappy job working with that stuff is. Oh well. Headed to town to get those lines remade, Harbor Freight, stop for gas and cash my Cenex check. Later..... :happy1: :happy1:

Mornin' felloe gulag comrades! Bottomed out at 40, was 41 at choretime and heading for a high in the upper 40's. Supposed to drop the hammer on us tonite. Blizzard warning according to the current forecast. We've lived a charmed life thus far so will have to see what happens. Should have plenty of stuff to make French toast so no reason to go to the grocery store... :coffee:

Was lucky getting a bunch of new hoses installed recently on the old Mustang 330. Those hoses were pushing 50 years old & the outer bark was starting to peel off of them. When lifting stuff up high, some of them were starting to leak when they needed to flex. I hear ya markn. Working on stuff like that is like working in a broom closet, especially on these old buggers. Fortunate to have neighbor Jon's shop just down the road.

It is just unreal how they get all of that packed into those skid steers.  Just got back from the landfill.  It is a dark day that feels like rain.  Had some real light drizzle on my way out there.

Morning boys. 21 here and supposed to get up to 26 it says. Mighty windy this morning. We used to see the choppers fly over us or the shoreline all the time. Haven't seen one for 7-8 years now. Maybe they started following the border instead of the shoreline. Well, just getting ready for another day in the salt mines. Have a good one boys.

Got hydro lines installed and no leaks. Used it to plow the driveway, gonna need some grass seed in a month or so. Kinda tore things up. Going to finish up parts washer assembly today. Found a broken fitting on the pump while I was working on it yesterday. If the Gorilla glue doesn't hold it means a trip to FF for fittings. Have a great day all, later..... :happy1: :happy1:

Morning boys.  We have flakes in the air and a skiff on the ground.  20 at the moment and may get up to 31.  Seems colder outside.  May be a good day to read a book today.  Warm up in a few days it looks like.  Saw a pine squirrel yesterday and Jake and Cooper saw it too so I let the out and they put the run on it.  Hope he doesn't come back.  Well you all have a good one.

Mornin boys, we have 21 & we could see 29. Just enough snow to cover the ground again here. Hwy 2 between Deer River& GR doesn't look the best but the plow cams look like 1 lane is good. So, we're headed to town today. No big hurry here, anyway. If you're traveling today, be careful. Have a good day.

Mornin' fellow gulag comrades! 27 at choretime, heading for a high in the low 30's. Still snowing lightly & the wind is blowing what fell overnite around pretty good. The good news is I should be able to handle it with the skidsteer as the worst of it is in front of the garage. Near as I can tell it was about 8+" worth. May have to adjust that up or down as I get a better look at the landscape. Can't see much out of the windows as they're covered with stuck-on snow. Chores were the primary focus & they went better than they could've. Only had to shovel the doorway into the lambing barn. The rest was a piece of cake. Better eat my oatmeal & listen to webinar. Ta! Ta!

Good morning.  I think we got 10 flakes of snow.  We do have the wind and it is cold.  Going to try to spend some time at the shop today.  That's my plans.  Have a great day.

The roads were great this morning :happy1:, we were a touch late leaving but still back here by 1. GR looked much like here for the amount of snow.
