Quite a spread today too. It's 33, going to 35. They predict snow and "mixed" weather.

Coffee this morning in the NRA mug.

Enjoy your day.

We use the same mugs every morning. I have a heavy German Mug with the lifetime NRA Member Logo, and Miss Tina uses a smaller Orvis mug... Our Henry Mugs are in the Trophy case. ;) It's cold here this morning, frost everywhere, but Miss T has to go let the chickens out of the coop, locked in at night to help deter the predators. She's never lost one that made it in the coops. Usually if she loses a chicken at night, it's one that stayed out in the tractor's overnight.

She shot twice this morning down at the coops... means the varmint traps were occupied. :evil: Possums have been bad this year. Huge too.
I'll be in the shop this morning and Miss T will be prepping for her Craft Show on Saturday. I may tag along and try and sell a couple boxes to restock the shop supplies. :)

We actually got down to 28° this morning. I'm sure that's nothing for RanchRoper but we're not too used to that here in SE Texas. We actually got a dusting of snow on the ground early Friday morning but it didn't last after the sun came up.

Heavy frost again here but no snow. I'm hoping for at least a 10 day sunny period from Washington State to Wisconsin so I can pick up my new trailer. Stopped drinking coffee a few weeks ago. Now chai tea is my new hot beverage.

Up early putting on strong coffee prior to Miss Ts departure for her craft show. Temps in the 20s this morning and I am feeling it. The snow finally stopped overnight, and the accumulations never reached the predictions. We had power fluctuate several times, but never drop out completely. Just enough to kill the clocks. I'll be back trying to carve Grumpy today. :D

It has been snowing on and off for a few hours here, but so far it isn't sticking because we keep getting rain in between flurries. I think we'll probably end up with a White Monday, though.

Another frosty night. I'm now checking the weather across WA, ID, MT WY, SD, MN and WI for my planned drive back to pick up my new trailer.

We got snow last night and will get more tonight. It had snowed at camp and the ice was forming on the lakes and ponds.

28 f here now. That should last the day. Coffee in the NRA mug then out for work.

Have a great day and stop back later and tell us about it.

We had a frost overnight, but no more snow, so it started out at -6° this morning, and it's up to 1.1° now.

Heavy frost again last night which means it is clear out. Going over Steven's Pass with Miss Evelyn in an hour.

Up at 440am for a trip to the VA in Richmond. It was 23 degrees. Miss T got up and had my coffee in a travel mug.

I was out the door by 520 to get there in time to find parking. My appointment? 9am. Parking fills up there early and the late shows end up parking in the grass, in the south 40, or driving around looking stupid til someone leaves. I don't play the game. I arrive early, park close where I can get the wheelchair out of the truck, and then sit and read. The temps climbed rapidly during the drive in... and I had very little traffic and dry roads. Why, it was almost summer by the time I arrived. A balmy 31 degrees. I should have worn shorts and a T-shirt. :P

Sometimes, since I check in WAY early, I get lucky. The docs ALL know I come in early and they'll take me early if there is a no show or someone is late. The Dentist took me at 8:15 this morning. ;)

Heavy frost again. I think I've made the same post for the last two weeks.

We went down to -12°C last night, and it went up to a tropical 1°C today. Winter is not my favourite time of year!

28F right now and the wind died down. Was supposed to move some cows this morning but it's postponed for now, probably until there's a foot of snow and -10... :)

Tea time, then out for breakfast with the Mrs. Good day to clean the Henry rifle.
