Mogorilla

0.5 inches of ice and 10 inches of snow.   Work in Kansas and it is shut down.   We got hit hard.    The ice is the real pain.

Plumbing check, so I'm up anyway, temp's @ 40 degrees.
The guessers were saying mid 30's does not look like the chill they expected made the show.
We will see 40 degrees the next few mornings, and just North of Orlando will have hard freeze warnings but not here.

I had to replace the solar fence charger and string new wire. The old unit gave up the ghost and the beastie figured it out Toot sweet.
The downside is the new unit has to charge 3 days in sunlight, before the unit can be activated. Therein lies the rub, we've had mostly overcast.

Setting the coffee pot for AM's 1st. light and back to the log pile... later gators

Sunny and 11 degrees here. "The great blizzard" didn't amount to much here-after the initial freezing rain, we got less than 1" of the white stuff.

Well the temps are in the 20s here, clear right now but Thursday heavy snow is coming through. Could be up to 5-6", thankfully no ice forecast. We got out today and went to the Post Office, Bank and then the dreaded Walmart. We made it home safely, even though we weren't in our pajamas. Homemade soup and bread for dinner tonight.

Greeting all.

I ain't dead yet. Might be nice though. Think of how much I'd save on taxes.  ::)

Anyway,not much to report. Been busy with "things."

Currently in Palisades, CA, fighting the Palisade fire. It's bad. We're on break at the moment. Been at it for almost 10 hours now, probably another 24 before we're released for bed.

Further update as events warrant.

Keep the hoofed side down,

We survived the night. Sounds like others may not have been as lucky.

Between 10pm-5am we got the worst of the Santa Ana, winds sustained at 50mph+, and gusts 100 or more. We've been working as a Strike Team of USFS engines from the north state, going behind the fire front and trying to save houses. Mixed results on that.
