whats everyone burning right now?

[xcr440]

94 octane VP Fuel. no real need for a fire with 60's during the day.

 

[Whitespider]

60's ??
The last time we broke out'a the 50's was October 24 !! Six friggin' months ago!

:msp_biggrin: 56f here right now. supposed to cool down a bit for a few days but mainly mid 50's. Which is warm enough for working outside pouring MUD.

 

[Whitespider]

Heck, I'd take 56[sup]o[/sup] in a heartbeat... 37[sup]o[/sup] here, with a 20 MPH north wind and sleet.

I just got off the tractor mowing 5 acres. Thermometer has 82 and hardly any clouds. My Lord I love Georgia.

 

[Hedgerow]

The only thing we are burning is gas in the rototiller!

Peppers and tomatoes have been in the ground a week.

All I've been able to do is think about that... Too wet, even in the raised beds...:msp_thumbdn:

 

[H 2 H]

As it is now, it'll likely be near June before the ground is warm enough for tomato sets 'round here :tire:

Peppers and tomatoes have been in the ground a week.

And, a hard freeze for about 6 hours will wipe out those peppers and tomatoes and send them all to plant heaven. It happened to me in May of 1995. This year I live in North Dakota. Last year I lived in Texas. In both years I actually lived in Nebraska.

Good grief, that's a mess, Hedge. Glad it came a week after the GTG. I noticed water was a bit heavy in early April even here (alias Drought City, USA). We picked up another inch of rain and wet snow today and have over 4" of rain on board since the GTG.

Worse yet, I acquired $50,000 in hail damage to my house. The roof shingles are completely destroyed along with sky lights, window sills, etc. and the back deck wiill need major work. Golf ball hail fell for about an hour and then it snowed a couple of inches on top of the ice from the sky. My small subdivison alone has over $10 million in damages.

Great spring we are having. :msp_angry:

Soft maple and other crap all winter. Now it's spring and burning red oak. What an idiot.

Pine. Looking at a long dead box elder that's snapped off and hanging off the ground, might go get it this weekend. Not getting much warmer here in the near future, and my "shoulder wood" pile is still a little depleted after last year's non-winter. S###ty part is the 6" of new white slop on the ground, and it hasn't quit yet. Might even need to plow the frickin driveway. :taped:

 

[Whitespider]

Just 12 days away from the month of May Steve... how 'bout that hat-eating you were promising me?

 

[bubba3228]

Only going to be 40deg here today with a mix of rain and snow tonight and over the weekend. Been burn'n red elm, box elder, and some white and red oak mixed in there. Brother had a good sized walnut and a couple box elders go down on his property this winter, so we are going to do some clean up next Sat. if the rain quits and the ground firms up.
Long spring is ok with me. Moisture was well needed, but am ready for some sun.

Have you ever wondered what causes this kinda backup? I have and followed the creek later to see just what did. 95 times out of 100 it is something man made. Water now a days just does not have any place to go. So much pavement it can't find the ground.
