Good morning all, not much happening except getting our second virus shot today. Warm weather is coming just in time, my coal is just about gone, I've used more this year for some reason. Hope all are safe & warm & keep doing what you have to to stay healthy along with others.

'Morning, been a while. I have been saving money drinking coffee at home.

Winter came late and now wants to hang on as long as it can. I know they are calling for warmer weather next week but I will believe it when I see it.

My coal stash is running low, a trip to the breaker is in order soon! I need my hot water supply.

Have a good weekend.

Good morning. After a week with frigid temperatures and brutal wind, we finally have a quiet morning. Cold weekend but the weatherman says next week will be mild. Hopefully we get some good sap runs and are done with this -20 windchill crap.

Almost 40 degrees here and going to be in the 50's the next few. Hopefully it melts all the snow so I can walk around more. Been an easy winter other than the single 2 week cold spell. It sure beats having multiple blizzards! Im already checking out my fishing holes....

Good afternoon everyone! I was wondering where coalnewbie has been. I noticed he hasn't signed on since Oct of 2020.

Late to the party. I guess the weather report for everyone is a warm up next week! Just got done cleaning up a bit outside. New puppy is full of spunk however he’s been very good and growing like a weed. Hit our local Sportsmans warehouse this morning for some ammo two box limit prices not too bad, big selection maybe things are getting better, a few dollars higher than before the shortage started. I’ve been getting lucky at Rural King also for ammo they are at near the same prices as before. Wife has a roast in the crock pot for dinner and I think I’ll do nothing the rest of the afternoon. Have a good weekend guys!
