A little wind here but at least no rain. We should be done w/ cold temps below freezing soon. Tonight tho we will dip down to 30f. Daytime stays between 45f and 55f or so average temp. I need to get out and walk again. Tired of waiting for the rain to stop. Come on big glow ball in the sky

It's official.... Spring is on its way! Saw the first two turkey vultures this morning. These guys like it warm, so I have NO idea why they're here in our 32 F. temps. Also saw the largest flock of Canada geese I've ever seen around here, at least 2,500 to 3,000 birds. Flying east with a good tailwind, they HAD to be doing 85 mph!

Those geese were prolly running from those cold hungry vultures who haven't had a good meal in months

Nah, they've been down south cleaning up all those yummy 'possums that TRIED to cross the road! :LOL:
BTW, Why did the chicken cross the road? To show the 'possum that it COULD be done! :rolleyes:

Our turkey vultures are here year round. Nasty birds. It's snowing here again!!!
Ugly as sin, but they do a GOOD job of cleaning up road kill. NEVER saw any in our area before 1985 or so, now there are hundreds of them here every summer!

They stay year round down here. Snowed here again, but 60 tomorrow all will be gone , again, soon.

Two inches of rain, sleet, snow since this started yesterday.

lol and we had to drive to Baltimore, 45 minutes from here, crazy dumb drivers, saw 4 accidents. Just slush on the roads.
The city of baltimore has really gotten behind in their sewer care, they pump it out to another drain since too many townhouses went up for the sewer to support. The pump quit, sewage backed up into houses. By the time we got there they had three sump pumps going to keep the sewage flowing right and our renters floor had just a little yuck on it. Cut him a break on rent to clean it up. No clue if the city will compensate for the damage.

Haver..you should be fine with getting it going. Water and ground temp is too warm now for it to freeze. I have already started feeding cheerios to mine. Every time I go near the pond they all come up expecting food. Cat tails are starting to grow in the bog already. I was so happy when I saw that yesterday. Helped my dad get his camper dewinterized today. Had to flush out all of that RV antifreeze and give it a good cleaning. He doesn't know too much about pulling that big of a camper yet, 31ft travel trailer with a dry weight of 8,000 pounds. He said that it smelled hot on the 15 mile drive from storage to my house. He didn't turn off the over drive on his new dodge truck. I made sure he knew that it MUST be turned off when pulling his camper. Helped him put up some new LED multi color changing strip lights. Got them wired into his 12 Volt system. Going CAMPING next weekend. Can't wait!!

Geez Ryan, camping already? Doesn't feel like camping weather to me till at least the grass is green. :)
I did get my pump in the pond this weekend but that's it. (not running) Need to get it up and running soon. Getting a little brown tint to the water and getting a little murky. We have had too many windy days and I cant keep the leaves out of the pond. No skimmer. Shooting for next weekend. Hope we have good weather. Good for you too as it sounds like you will be camping!
