Still have pockets of snow hither & thither after alot of rain yesterday. Hitb 69 F here today...with more rain. Supposed to be cooler but sunny tomorrow. If that happens, I'll be able to accuratlet asses the damages I've sustained from those high wind storms last month. (Picked my 8 burner BBQ right up off the back deck - over the railings & into the backyard. Still aint found all the pieces parts.Maybe tomorrow) ------------- Loose wimmen tightened here |

North Carolina is getting some rain and thunder storms today. Hopefully the snow is done for the year. As I have a wood burning furnace. My wood pile is looking a bit thin. Started out with four cords and I do not have a quarter cord left. Twelve days till spring. That is my Father's Birthday. He would be 111 if still living. Miss him everyday. There will be chocolate cake for his Birthday Brodsky Children and Grandbabies. |

Bin out trying to repair my BBQ. Needs a new right door, 6 flame tamers (their all bent to ratcrap), grease drip cup9gone with the wind), battery holder assmbly (dunno where it went) some new cotter pins for the burners (couple are bent outta shape) & I think a new thermometer. I straightened the left side panel but right door isn't fitting proper. Amazing how parts can dissappear from an enclosed back yard. ------------- Loose wimmen tightened here |

Be safe Hoadie. My prayers are with you. Did White Rhino feel / get any of those earthquakes that happen in Louisiana? Did the gators raise a fuss? |

Aww damn..heavy heavy rain. Much of the lower ground is still frozen. Alot of flooding everywhere...especially @ my place. Had a guy here measuring for blinds..& I could hear water running.  Went downstairs to a flood.( Cat in the rafters, cat floating round in a tote) 2 window wells had filled up & overflowed & everything came into basement.  Why me, Lord? ------------- Loose wimmen tightened here |

In North Carolina many times I use a shop broom to clear a inch or two of snow. For deeper snow one of my sons uses a grain scoop as a snow shovel. That's what my family in New Brunswick use for a snow shovel. Works good. Go down in to the cold overnight with snow and ice possible. Have to put away my shorts. Did my heart good last week seeing women in hooter tops and short shorts. |

| Sounds like we will have a blizzard coming Saturday/Sunday. Current forecast is for 13" of snow and winds gusting to 50 mph. Hope it's the last hurrah of winter. |
