Hope yinz had a Happy Groundhog Day.
I'm tired of winter, we've been getting flurries for days. Chuck had to b plow the lane yesterday. Forecasted highs for a couple of days next week are in the teens with lows in the single digits. Hope that kills some flies, fleas and mosquitoes. Guess nothing but a hammer kills ticks

It wasn't $3.08, it was $3.80 plus, they wanted $95 for tank rental, but I 've disputed that.
Was at mom's for 2 days, wasn't there an hour before I get a message from my SIL that Chuck's dad has been falling so she's staying with him. I told my mom we were going to move them in together so it would be easier to take care of them. She was NOT fond of that plan.

Hang in there everybody. Got 13 & no wind so it really ain't to bad if you like cold. It's questionable.

Forecast has highs in the 20s and lows around the low teens until Sunday, then low -2. Chuck just bought his otter trapping permit today, if it warms up, he wants to set some traps. Have any of yinz trapped them before? This is the first year out can trap them here.
