Cool, 'bout time for it.
I am ready.
It is nice being a mile back from the ocean.

We have about 1/4 mile of nothing to slow it down, just grass fields, cows and a four foot fence. a total of about 3/4 miles from the beach. BRING IT ON:rock:
makes a two story moan and groan:msp_scared:
 
Thats cool , our old house dose the same when it gets it on, at about 40mph+ the deck starts a weird vib. and whistle through the rails. We are over due for one of our november storms.
 
I used to live about a mile inland. It was a constant job to keep the windows caulked. The house would shudder when the wind slammed into it, and I could hear the breakers making that loud WHOOOMPH sound.

The robotic weather voice is telling us to expect heavy rain here and rain/snow/freezing rain in the passes. I don't think there is enough snow to have a flood. Stay tuned. Sometimes just the rain is enough.

Wednesday TV news may show the travelers chaining up and struggling over the passes.

I despise land owner's that do not take care of their property. So far the crew has found 12 trailors, 2 RV's, a hand full of campers, about 2 miles of fence, 3 bath tubs, 2 motor cycles and what looks like a Model A frame. Most of the crap was burried under black berries, scotch broom and some other forms of very annoying brush.
 
My left wrist says I really need a mid class saw, about 60 cubic cm / 6 kilos of weight with a 20'' bar. Or, alternatively, I should have attended the chainsaw ergonomics classes, which I had to skip on Wednesday and Thursday. I just couldn't let a digging team with two excavators and five guys sit two days and wait. My cutting technique is harsh on wrists, I guess because I keep flipping the saw in my hands like a conductor. I suppose that's a result of learning to handle chainsaws with very light gear. I already paid a visit to a couple of local toy stores for preliminary inquiry.

Black ground here, not a drip of snow this week, yet it's November. That's something worth mentioning. Black and dark and wet. Time to start sipping some cod-liver oil. Cheers!

I have to go to Fortuna tomorrow for meeting, looks like it will be wet. Held off all day here and we are starting our winter logging plans. Finished a 3 year contract on the 15th the very last day of the contract, ran way over on volume, we had the promised volume August 1 as planned, finished yarding and hauling on the very last day.
 
Windy and pissing down rain here in PNW (Stanwood)

Interesting dilemma raised here.
Which invasive came first ?

as for the junk, that stuff is probly now referred to as a Culturally Significant Resource.
:laugh:
 
Started raining here about dark, set in regular at 9pm, had .75 since midnight, so kinda moderate today.

Same here (rain) and hasn't let up since dark last night; it's 49 degrees and boy you don't need much of a fire going when it's like this
 
I've been working outside this morning. It is windy, with only a few drops of rain off and on. However, after seeing this--scroll down to the last picture before Wednesday's blog, I had best head to the feed store for some Used Dog food. It might be interesting on Monday.

nummers used dog food, is it just slobbered on or has it gone through the full "cycle" :msp_confused:
