Sunny and cool on The North Bluff.
The weather birds are all chirping about 5"-9" of white stuff Saturday night to Sunday night. They were way off the ball last time so I hope they are wrong again.
Joe I would bet your not in your late 60s or older if your taking a pass on the shot. With all of your military back ground I bet you have had plenty of shots over the years. You remind me of what my old friend Cliff used to say, "I would rather be a carrier than a victim." I know when I was sent to China for work I had at least 7 or 8 shots for everything you could dream of getting. I made it there and back without issue. Been taking flu shots since the early 80s. Never had the flu or anything close till Feb of last year and I think that was Covid before they knew about it.
Been cooking wood last two days hard. Want to burn up the last of the four years dry stuff so I can have re-stock room in the wood shed. Chains are on the tractor and plow is on the Rusty Ranger, let it rip.

30 degrees and sunny. High today is guessed at 38. Mom use to say, "The snow is staying around for more." Guessed wintery mix coming. NC usually has snow and within 24, all gone. Today is The Box work day.

Good evening,
I think we were supposed to get some snow but it didn't happen. I have not paid one bit of attention to the vaccine news as I have no intention of getting it.
Good night,
Joe
ChiefEagles KEV, 30 miles round trip is nothing. Later.
Later.
30 mile round trip is nothing but 60 is a push. You would just think they could set up something at the county seat 8 miles away? It is what it is? It well may change by the time they call me in. I see they are asking the guard to set up sites now. We will see how that goes?
38 and strong wind. Got the shot. Easy and very efficient. Feel fine. Stopped and got hotdogs from Cookout. Then left Caddy [again for the same thing] and got loaner.
Well, Lady Firestorm did manage to "crack the code" and found a county site where we could register for the shots, so we did. Now we wait for the word.
Not losing any sleep over it, it'll happen when it happens.
Was 0 out when I got up and won't hit the high 20s today but there is full sun so makes it good enough for me. What little snow we got is not going any place for at least a few days. If they are right more snow on the way for Doug Saturday and it just may be rain for us. We will see. No word from the county on shots yet. I did see that to get it there will be a 60 mile round trip unless they open up more places.. Give me a break!
Going to cook up some chicken tenders and srooms in the egg air fryer for lunch.
That's pretty much what we got Chief, on the lawns, not the roads, picturesque but not a PITA, if you know what I mean.
It'll be gone in about 24 hours, maybe less.
34 degrees and sunny. Woke up at 8:15. Got up to the blizzard.
Wifey got up at 3:30 to watch it snow. Children! I woke up at 3:15 and looked out. Was snow hard and big flakes. Was pretty. I got back in bed and went back to sleep.
Crazy TV folks. Found 2 18 wheelers on I 95 east of us off the road. Big reporting. along with one tree fell in Raleigh [reporter and camera there reporting constantly]. These folks need something to report. Its funny
Get my shot later today [12:50].
Fifey, all will be fine.
Hope all stay warm and well.
Mornin' boys. Cold and grey along the Patterson Creek cut-off. Supposed to get down right frigid today. Only thing on the agenda is to pay some utility bills. In person. No usps.
The new mommy will be discharged today. Baby has to stay another week or more. Premies. It will be hard on her mentally, but she can be there all she wants, so she can get a little rest and freshen up,so it might be a small blessing.
Roy, continued well wishes on your recovery.

Afternoon folks!
Sunny and 50's-ish. Not so bad. And no snow to clear!
Feeling OK and certainly improving a bit day-by-day. One side affect of radiation is this incredible fatigue - that extra sleep does not help with. Just have to push through it.
Fife - congrats to the family!
Take care all!
Regards, Roy
Congrats Fife.
Aloha. Grey and much colder this morning. Glad I cleared all the snow late yesterday with the help of my youngest. Then i was pretty beat for the rest of the evening. Encouraged my oldest on his way home from work - he's finally ready to go back to school to finish his degree. Such good news in Fife-land!Hmm, Kev, I should check my FOID card.

Mornin' boys. Cloudy and 31 along the Allegheny front range. We got the icy conditions that Banksie didn't get. And fife was stuck on street with a kinda steep grade for some 45 minutes, waiting for conditions to improve. Finally got to kid's house, where Grandma was waiting, and I decided to assemble the dresser/changing table before attempting to venture back to Fifedom.
Thanks for all the well-wishes and at-a-boys. Instead of handing out cigars, I'm handing out bottles of Mega Steam!
Morning all and congrats Fife!
Not much has been going on. Still messing with trains a bit. Changed out some smoke units wicking and changed a few traction tires.
Hope everyone is staying safe. Good thoughts for all!

Mike C - Working from home is great.
Hello there, Roy.....glad you're improving Steak & onion fried in butter and baked sweet tater for supper. The ice storm predicted for today turned into much ado about nothing. Tree started dropping needles so we took it down and gave it to daughters goats yesterday. Today working on putting away Christmas. Probably finish tomorrow. Cable, phone, internet bill recently jumped from $200 to $300 a month. Decided to cut the landline, that got it to $200 again. Tech was here today and installed a different modem. Best get back toit Prayers for those in need and the end of this pandemic.

KRMGot an e-mail from the state to "renew" my FOID card. WOW what a goat rope . It took an hour to jump through all of the hoops in their website before I got it done. Talk about stupid!
I hear you man! We went to the VA Dep't of Health site to research COVID shots and availability and gave up! What a mess!
Congratulations Fife! And best wishes to the "Middle Princess" and the "New Engineer!"
Great news Fife!!! Glad everyone is fine.
Well the plan worked, We got all of about 1" of snow. Looks like Doug got way more.
Got an e-mail from the state to "renew" my "FOID" card. Firearm Owners Identification card needed to buy guns and ammo in IL. WOW what a goat rope . It took an hour to jump through all of the hoops in their website before I got it done. Talk about stupid! Heck you can't buy ammo as it is so kind of worthless anyway.
Fife & Family
CONGRATULATIONS FIFE
