Morning, Sleep. filler up! don't know how long I'll get to stay today as this ice storm business might put me off line if the power goes. It just hit 32 here so the freezing is just starting.........Buck

Tensleep · January 05, 2005, 07:52:45 AM

Hang in there Buck!
Got a propane stove?
Plenty coffee?
Wood fer tha fire?

Silent Joe · January 05, 2005, 09:54:50 AM

Good for You, Tensleep.

There's a time, a man had to stop with working, so he can do what he enjoy.
My time is april 30 to stop with my duty as Chief-Ispector after 40 years and enjoy freedom. So, thanks for the coffee and take
a drink from me.

Thanks Joe, I'll take that drink.
I know that you will enjoy your retirement as much as I will.

Still with it, Sleep. Yep, brought in a propane two burner camp stove, a kerosene heater, battery op radios, oil lamps. still have power, but that could change later this afternoon. still rain, but the freeze line is dropping our way. They're saying around 3:00 P.M.................Buck

Make sure yer stocked up good Buck, make another run quick if need be. This poop started for us Sunday about 9pm and we are spoussed to have it till 'bout midnight yet, slow and drawn out. Right now about 5-6 inches of snow on top of 1/4" of ice here just south of the Salt Flats.

If yer power goes down you do have a phone that will work with out power don't ya? I still got yer number if we don't hear from ya once in a while I'll call and see if yer all right, won't be able to do much be hopefully tell folks yer Ok.

Good luck Buck I was lookin' at the radar a bit a go.

Tensleep · January 05, 2005, 11:59:38 AM

Let Del know yer OK if it happens Buck.

Joyce (AnnieLee) · January 05, 2005, 12:16:35 PM

Congrats on the upcoming retirement, Sleep! You and Miz Annie deserve the time to have some fun!

Buck, please stay in touch with Del if you drop out over here? Some of us might get worried.

Delmonico · January 05, 2005, 12:24:09 PM

I got his number plugged in ta my cell phone, if he quits sendin' us Ohio storm reports I'll give him a hollor.

I think our power is gonna stay up here although the said 8-12 inches might be here between 2pm and midnite.

Delmonico · January 05, 2005, 04:32:21 PM

They closed verk again early, been verkin' on my sewin' room. Bucks lite is out, if we don't hear from him later I'll call.

Four-Eyed Buck · January 05, 2005, 07:43:10 PM

I'm still with it, the girls went to bowling. The freeze line is still north of us so far. and yes, we've got one of those old fashioned connected by a wire phones hooked up right by my 'puter desk. We were more ready for this one, might have scared it of.......Buck

Four-Eyed Buck · January 05, 2005, 08:09:07 PM

Susie went out this afternoon and picked up some other stuff including some chili fixin's. So I made up a pot of chli........YUM!!!!We also got a new dryer today so I've been being a good house husband and running laundry. Our sons picked the old one up this evening. Susie got lucky last night...NO, not that way......She won $750 at bingo, so she's been spreading it around

::)Still learning the new controls on that dryer, times are running differently than the old one so I've got to adjust a little and it took longer this time............Buck

Delmonico · January 05, 2005, 08:17:29 PM

Good ta hear from ya pard. some folks ferget ta have an old hard wire phone in this day and age. A friend lost power in the May 22 tornado mess. He didn't have a hard wire phone and his son seen the picture on TV of the tornado on his corner and could not get a hold of him. He now has a hard wire phone.

We got hit really hard again about 3pm, 'looks like about 10" here, not much but it is blowin' bad, "suppossed to be done about 12am and -10 tonite. Not really, bad but dangerous if yer not careful.

Oh to prepare fer yer next store I found this, uses the same kerosene as yer heater, might be useful.

I ordered me one this afternoon. Might even be handy when campin'. Good ta hear it's still North of ya.

Four-Eyed Buck · January 05, 2005, 08:31:05 PM

Bwaa haaa haa haa haa ha hahahaha!!

AnnieLee, with the best laugh of her day, and yes, she clicked on it, too.

Delmonico · January 05, 2005, 09:35:10 PM

If you clicked on the specs window of the home page you would find that it will burn only 1 pint of coal oil for normal work for 12 hours of online time and it burns 2 pints in 12 hours for porno sites.

5-6 pumps per hour will keep it up and runnin' but a adapter thats uses a CO2 catridges is avallible for $9.98.

Four-Eyed Buck · January 05, 2005, 10:19:54 PM

At the moment the freeze line is about 7 miles north of us now running about dead center through the middle of Canton. we also have flood warnings for the Nimisilla creek running along St. Rt. 800 about three miles east of us. there's also flood warnings for the Tuscarawas river running through Massillon and a little further south to Navarre. first time for that area since 1969. there's a trailer park along the creek and they've been hit hard several times in the last two years. so far so good for us. We're warm, reasonably dry( dogs go out every couple hours, have to be leashed) and not out of coffee. Don't have to go anywhere if we don't want to. the birds were at the feeders this afternoon. quite a few doves, luckily no deer, otherwise we'd have to go out and refill them. Guess there are some positives about being retired. wife and sis-in-law are talking FLA. about March for a visit to one of sis's friends in the Tampa area, might have to seriously think about that one................Buck

Tensleep · January 06, 2005, 04:34:41 AM

New day............
Coffee is ready on both sites....
y'all drink up.

I hope Buck and Del an' all the pards gettin' hit by that momster storm are doin' OK.

Just heard that -39 was the high in Grand Forks ND yesterday... That was Farenhait, ST

Delmonico · January 06, 2005, 10:21:14 AM

-6 in Lincoln wheh I came to work an hour ago, sun shine, 10 inches of snow and no wind beutiful. Went out and started the car and my neighbor cleaned it off while he was doin' his.

Got to work and the snow had got in the furnace and melted. Manned the pumps, mop and buckets, all done and drips are now goin' in the buckets, nothin' wet but the floor.

Buck are ya still in Ohio or did ya float down the river on a block of ice?
