Always nice to view your videos. Just like Lay's potato chips, one is never enough. They just keep reappearing as long as I sit and watch.

Nice picture Ralph. Reminds me of some of my early morning flights.
One morning after I took off from Marysville, Oh flying to Virginia, after
takeoff and turned east the ground fog was thick and could only see
the tops of the power line towers and tops of the tallest trees. The visibility
above the fog was unlimited and had a good flight to Edinburg, Va.

I see a big error on the posting time. Is this your clock or mine?

Gene

Okay will save a spot for you. Steve will probably be there too.

Looks like changing the time has scrambled the posts here

Guess I will try my first post on the new forum. Had made a post on the old forum at about the time of the
 changeover, but seems to have been lost in cyberspace. All the other posts are.
Been doing pretty well. My health is improving and am gaining back most of the weight ans strength I had lost.
Been able to get out and cut some firewood while the ground was frozen and dry. Getting along alright with that.
Winter was kinda hard with the cold weather and breathing problems, so wasn't able to work outside much, but
that is better.
Spring came in 4 days ago and met with 5 inches of snow on Wednesday night with 45 MPH winds, so had some
drifting.
Warmer weather will melt that in short order. Haven't had much this winter.

Best of spring to all.    Gene

Careful what you wish for. After my last post about being dry was answered by more than 3.5 inches of rain starting last Thursday. The dry ground is doing a good drinking in the water, but will still be a few days, even if we get some sunshine. Cloudy and cooler weather will slow the process. This coming week is the prime time for planting corn and soybeans in Ohio. Thankfully we are missing the severe storms that seem to be plaguing southern U.S.

Warm and dry here in Ohio. Tractors and horses working everywhere. Ground very dry and would welcome some rain, which is predicted for Thursday and Friday.

Charlie, I have been turning a little dirt last 3 days. Started out by working the sweet corn patch on Wednesday. Worked some extra ground and invited the daughter and son in law to plant some garden. Hope they take me up on that.Had the Case 970 out on Wednesday afternoon to work down some sod I plowed up from plowing up some of the airstrip so that will give me another acre to plant.

Will be raising corn this year. I don't have a planter so neighbor will plant my corn when he plants his field next to me.I worked about 12 acres on Thursday with the Case 700 and field cultivator. Was about 77 degrees yesterday so was a nice day to be[ out on the tractors. Turned out cold at 52 degrees today, so did some inside work and a little laundry. Neighbor has a 12 row planter, so won't take long to plant my 21 acres.

Charlie the Shop Fox sure makes straight cuts easy but only as accurate is the measurements

Weather turned cold again yesterday. Had 28 degrees all day yesterday with snow flurries and 35 MPH winds. Not a good day to be outside. Mostly stayed in the house and enjoyed the warm fire.

Have our first 2017 directors meeting at Portland today. Got lots of items to discuss for the upcoming year.

Nice day to work in the new shop yesterday. Took a few pictures of the track saw and some of the paneling. Charlie, I don't have a drywall square, but the track saw is doing a good job with some careful measurement.
