calling any one from missouri

I found a source for some good firewood today and got a truck load and have it stacked up in the wood bin, going for another load tomorrow. Kinda strange to find a good source for firewood on craigslist usually it's slab wood, seasoned (punky) or something else. Next year I need to be prepared better!

I'm glad you got stocked up it's looking like you're going to need it.

Used the last bit of ice melt I had and salted the hilly part of the driveway first thing this morning. It was OK by the time we left at 9:15. Got to the BOB at 10:00 and was walking out of the BOB at 10:30. A much better way to give 2,000 covid shots.

You were not too far from the house we bought down there!

Too bad you don't live closer to me. We have a huge oak tree that was dropped last year and has been waiting for someone to need/want it. They would have to cut it up more though. Part of it is a 7 foot long tree trunk! We did finally get a friend to come haul away the other oak tree that was sectioned into about 25 3 foot wide sections of trunk.

We had to stay on the main roads in Poplar Bluff due to ice on the side roads like Park Ave. When I go to the Post Office and have to go south of town I usually take Park Ave. to 67 as it's the least confusing way.

I wished you lived closer to me with a free oak tree. I do play with some big ones from time to time...

Gotta replace the starter in Rusty but don't know how to get the truck inside a building if it won't start and I'm not working on it in the snow with single digit temps...

We’re below zero this morning. -4º and snowing. The chickens won’t come out. I have two hens in the basement. One is a leghorn that had a torn comb. I think others did that to her. She was a mess, the coop was a mess so I brought her in about 4 days ago. The blood seems to be coming off her without me doing anything.
The other is my little Sebright, Moonshine because she seems to suffer in the cold.
The basement is about 50 maybe a little less. Very warm by their standards.

Here are the pups in boots getting ready for a walk

It’s 4 above zero now. How are everyone’s birds doing in the cold? I am a bit anxious about the upcoming 2 nights....but I can’t bring them all in.
We got 2 or 3 inches snow so far, very dry powdery snow. It is easily swept out of the way.
