That it is, Mark. We are joined at the hip so to speak. Love the mountains too. Cades Cove in the Smokies is my favorite place on the planet. :D

The news this evening says 70-80 mph wind gusts tommorow afternoon. Can't wait. Better get my hard hat out of retirement. What kind of windage adjustment will that be for my Silver boy .22? Lol.

Sounds like we're getting more rough storms, rain tomorrow. This is getting a bit old.

It's 30* and the sun is streaming into the LR window where Paige is soaking it up. The temps should climb into the mid-sixties by this afternoon when clouds will move in ahead of a Stormy Monday. Enjoy your day.

Happy Easter everybody. Here on the mountain it's 46° gloomy and 100% cloud cover. 1st cup of coffee down, and going in for more. Getting ready to batten down the hatches here on the Moe homestead. Hope you all stay healthy and safe.

Well,we're on the north side of the weather and we're getting wet snow and wind. Supposed to get six inches by the end of the day. Yuuk!
Got up early this AM because the Wife has a "He is Risen" banner to put up since we cannot go to church. It's out by the highway which is half a mile from the house. I drove the steel posts in yesterday but figured with the wind she wouldn't be able to hang it up alone.
She'll reward me later today with turkey and dressing. :D

Happy Easter! Saw the bunny out in my lower field this morning and contemplated trying out the new Eley Tenex Match .22, but gave him a pass.

40* now, headed for 60* in glorious sunshine. Going to have an espresso or 3 and then go do some work on our Airstream. No turkey for dinner tonight, but our season opens on the 15th, so hoping to put some in the freezer soon!
