Good coffee! French toast is about to hit the griddle. The sun is shining... 23 degrees. Looks like another couple of weeks before even thinking of shutting down the coal.
Hope you all enjoy Easter. Tomorrow.... getting together for a meal with my cousin. We haven't eaten together in over a year. Finally, a bit of normalcy.
Forward we go!

Full sun here and no wind, the birds and squirrels are having a busy morning.
Big news this week. Our refrigerator came in! Ordered it back in August and due to factory shutdowns we had no idea when it would come in. Thankfully we went through a local appliance company and they had a used fridge for us to use in the meantime.
Also, my wife got the great idea to "limewash" our chimney from HGTV. I was skeptical, but I love the end result. It really brightened up the room. I will post some pictures when I get everything put back into place.

Sunny morning here in Massachusetts. Got of my shift this morning, coffee at the station with the guys before I went home. Looking forward to the weekend off and celebrating Easter with the family. My son just got his license and we found him a nice car. Got the stimulus and have my eye on a boiler after years of harrasing the members of this forum with my posts. Just need a new engine in the truck! Happy Easter! He is Risen!

Same here Bob! Just got back from a jaunt to NC and a visit with 3 of my other 4 siblings. Had a great time eating to much food, getting to cold on top of a mountain in the Blue Ridge and drooling to much over the women guys take to Top Golf to hit a ball. Lots of good eats and beers. Came home and played basketball to try to equalize the intake.....
