Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

Sounds like you should have taken advantage of the warm weather to heat up your cast iron. Then you could stay warm for days.

Can't get mine hot enough to fry an egg. Not sure the problem. Maybe need a new stove.

I'd say take it back to Sears, but there ain't none of them left.

11 degrees C this morning, supposed to go to -7 this afternoon, that's 52-19 for the non metric folks, and possibly 6-12 inches of snow. Maple trees are budding. Weird year

When I got up it was 4° and -14° wind chill. Need lots of this morning. May also be why @farmer steve is having trouble with his stove. He should try plugging it into 220 volts. 110 doesn't seem to be enough.

Looks like you got one of those build back better stoves, the question is, are you happy .
Hauled a few cases of eggs the other day.
Not sure what the games all about, no tic tacs in sight.

Tic tags and eggs make about as much sense as the directions on this can of "one coat coverage guaranteed", or the build back better program they want us on

How long did you smoke those turkey thighs? Boneless?

Probably antlerless, but not boneless .

Definitely weird. We worked with the doors open yesterday. That is by far the earliest. Normally we start that in early April.

I hope the weather settles down, this is not good for my apple trees.

It was 70 yesterday and a high of 24 today.

I looked before I sealed the trailer and they were all white lol.
I've hauled a lot of eggs, never seen that before, guessing it had something to do with the packaging/how they were on the pallets, but I couldn't see it from the ground.

These up and down temps lately make me want to ask any of you that have wives that are having hot flashes to keep them away from the thermostats. Then that made me think of a time when I went to a friends house early one morning. It was the dead of winter and as I drove up to the back porch the kitchen door flew open and his wife comes out the door completely naked. Guess she was having a really bad hot flash and she didn't care who saw her.

Maybe try putting the pan on the stove pipe in the back.

Record high of 86 yesterday, 40s today.

Morning guys. Strange weather here. Went from temps in the 50's Sunday to negative teens today. Back to 30 tomorrow and then warmer after that.

Our lakes have about a foot of ice but massive issues with cracks and pressure ridges due to ice movement caused by lack of snow. Not much safe ice around.

All back together but it’s pouring outside so tuning will have to wait

A while back there was a female in here from "Warshington". I think she had the hots for @olyman and @Whitespider

LOL

On the upside she'd probably be supportive of their hobbies. Then again, I've had woman pretend to be interested in the things I was interested in and when they thought they "had me" their colors changed... and I changed them out. I have a keeper in my life now...
