Halo. Back from Texas. Had a very nice hiking trip in Big Bend. Weather got bad the last day (Thurs). But we still muddled through. Here's a busker I saw in Terlingua. Cool dude. Played and sang real nice on that 1963 LG-2

Glad you had a good trip, Marshall.
Good morning, all. Yardwork this morning. This afternoon I'll make some sausage, kale and bean soup for dinner. Enjoy your day.

Thank you. Thank you very much.
I could never understand the lyrics in the verses of this song, only the chorus. But how about the Royal Opera Orchestra? Hoo-wee.

Wondering how Bruce and Peter doing amid the snowstorms out their way.
We got a little snow overnight, more expected tonight and again Sunday night, along with wind and cold.
So it's winter, I reckon.

Good Morning Good People
Cloudy, cold, light dusting of new snow over crusty snow and icy sidewalks.
Cabin fever setting in. Not a good day for walking or hiking, ski trails are melted, re-frozen and beaten up. A good way for an introvert to spend the day is in the workshop fixing up the table saw. Maybe some guitar time if the mood strikes.
Have a fine dead-of-winter Saturday one and all.

Much warmer today. This morning I decided not to drive to the Rec Center, but instead to use the exercise room in my basement, elliptical, Air Dyne, treadmill and free weights. Worked up a good sweat. My next big task, after breakfast, is to go down to the barn and make sure the rodents have enough poison and make sure the battery maintainers are working.

So it's winter, I reckon. Heard it's cold, 1 degree or so at Peter's place but over here on the coast we're in the 20s. We got about 3, maybe 4 inched of snow overnight and it won't be melting any time soon. I'm still in the "No shoveling" and "No lifting over 10 pounds" recovery from the heart attack period so I'll have to wait it out 'til it melts, maybe Tuesday. I did drive up to Maryland Wednesday and got the oil changed in the Subaru. I'm allowed short distance drives and 50 miles is short distance here. I have a follow-up appointment on the 31st with the local hospital's cardiac person and I'll see what she thinks I can get away with. That will be 6 weeks post surgery. She'll probably send me to cardiac rehab for exercises to get some strength back. I still get tired easily and take a lot of naps but from what I've read that's normal. I've tried to play guitar but it's not working very well. Being snowed in, I'll try some more. Got the bills and payment stuff from Medicare and the AARP supplement and they paid everything but I haven't seen any charges for the helicopter ride. In theory, Medicare will pay for that but it hasn't shown up on any of the bills yet. That could be expensive, I fear and Medicare says they'll pay but it was to be pre-authorized and I don't know if they did that. Enjoy your Winter if that's your thing. I'm waiting for Spring.

So it's winter, I reckon. We've done great here, thanks for asking. We got snow Monday, the predicted 1-2 feet turned into about 5 inches topped by an inch of shhet ice. Got the vehicles freed up Monday then got some sun Tuesday and cleared the rest up. Then the renovations resumed Wednesday with the new furnace and A/C system install. Got the new utility sink from Costco, demo'd the space, and got it set up Thursday. Had a buddy in to plumb it in Friday. And then today the wife's painting the basement walls (she's the one with the good painting genes and enjoys it) and I've been running errands with the truck. Hit 1 degree this morning but it's about 25 now and chatting with my neighbor yesterday, I guess it's supposed to be back to 40 or 50 by the end of the week.

Late to the party today.
I had a shop full of visitors today and took in a few interesting repairs.
No errands to do today so I may just get to be completely lazy until nap time.
