The Descriptive Process

[slowp]

In today's paper their is a letter advocating a water system be built to take water from the Cascade drainage system to either Lake Shasta or Folsum Lake. I have mentioned this before as it seems like a great idea and it will only cost a few trillion dollars. Washington is wasting the water filling up rivers and let it just run into the ocean. Folsum Lake is tiny so I would suggest the aquaduct go straight to the Los Angeles basin. Those people need to wash their sidewalks too. Thoughts?

This seems to be discussed during every CA drought in history. Yup, we don' need no salmon, or power, or river traffic. Gotta warsh them movie star's cars!

Lawns, people. Get your priorities straight.

 

[2dogs]

You're both right.

What is this drought you speak of?

The leaves in my gutters were crispy yesterday.

 

[madhatte]

Couldn't help but notice that the smoke from all of the woodstoves hit the deck as a flat layer about 50 feet off the ground while I drove in this morning. I guess the ground still has a bit of heat left to give off. This is kind of surprising as cold as it's been the last couple of weeks. I guess it was an unseasonably warm October, though.

The last three days, I've noticed warm breezes and pockets of air at my house on the knob. It does look kind of hazy out there this morning, even in our less populated valley. I'm guilty. I've got my doubly certified stove going hard at it. We've also got folks who torch off their slash piles because it is dry enough to do so.

 

[madhatte]

Cliff Mass agrees with you!

 

[OlympicYJ]

Been some piles getting away from folks too. Buddy down out of Knappa (ground in WA too) been fighting em yesterday and today. Outfit I worked for on the Peninsula had some get away from em too. Doesn't sound too bad.

 

[slowp]

My innernet went down! Two burns going on within sight here yesterday. It clouded up but no rain yet.

 

[madhatte]

Oh, hello, clouds. Is it warmer yet? Might be. Not sure.

 

[Metals406]

I miss the sun, but welcome temps other than single and negative digits.

 

[Metals406]

It's bittersweet isn't it?

Yes it is!

 

[Metals406]

Get your trusty snow shovel dusted off!

Oi vey!! We go from bitter cold to pacific moist.

[slowp]

trade ya some cold dry weather for some wetness. besides the moistness will help you grow trees.

a chip in the eye still hurts.........

 

[treeslayer2003]

so i found a new kind of fencing/chain eater.........1/2" wide flat metal with teeth and twisted.......yea it will mess up a good cutting chain

 

[SliverPicker]

I once ripped a single strand of barbed wire that was 22" long cleanly in half with a brand new chain. One cut and the chain went in the hopper. It ain't fair when that happens.
