Hello folks!

We just got internet, in time for the flood to take out our new drive, (significantly). We got our household items moved a couple days ago. Now for..................

Pics of the driveway? No pics of the please.

Morning everybody. It has to quit raining at some point.....right?

Rigged the furnace panel lockout switch with a zip tie. So when it fires up the burner all I need to do is give the fan a push in the right direction.
House is down to 65.

Maybe now I can convince Blondie I need to keep some wood on the front porch out of the weather.

I sure hope so. It's raining harder right now than it has in the past three days. Wonder if I put a little extra air in the tires if I can float to work?

Morning folks. Stay dry today.

We ended up with 7.5" here. Creek that we cross to get out has been flooded for about 36 hours. Good that we don't have to go any where!

Furnace healed up for now. Time will tell if the motor got overcooked.

I would suggest removing that thermometer in the garage.

Install woodstove in garage...

Everyone happy that way.

My vintage thermometer.


It came from two doors down. A neighbor lady passed and her daughter gave me it and a tiny step ladder.

Every time I look at the thermometer I think of Ruby. She was a gem.[emoji72]

Don't forget the rubber boots...I sold my last 2 rick of oak to a friend, to be delivered. I told him if he would help me load it and unload it he would get a better price, if not, he pays like everybody else. He wants to help so I told him he better have rubber boots cause my woodlot is a sinkhole of mud right now. Should be fun either way.

The tiny shed is dry complete with little electric heater

Well all the poop flood waters have been cleaned in my basement and the plumber knocked the clog in the drain out. He also traced my septic for me so I know about where the tank lid is. I want to pull that up in the spring and check the level.

It's sleeting here which will be on top of the 4" of snow we got already. Had the day off to get the basement back in order. Got the tractor plugged in and will be going to move snow in 20-30mins.hopefully we won't have too much accumulation after I clear it just before dark.

Steady snowing here. Tiny flakes to make drifts. Oh joy.[emoji19]

Not surprising. Tablerock flood gates are opened up. That should raise Taneycomo by at least 10 feet.

 

[WKEND LUMBERJAK]

Try this again

Makes my bones hurt.

Daughter tells me all Tablerock and Bagnell flood gates are open.
