It looks like some storm remnants are coming in from the NE. Oh boy! ;D

The stores were packed today.

Rick

Good morning everyone.

42 right now in Kingman and sunny with a high of 60 later.

Coffee, sodas and OJ are ready.
Basic two eggs any way you like, roasted potatoes, crispy bacon and/or sausage for breakfast today.

Philip, any storm issues?

Mike, I'm sure that gumbo was delicious.

Larry, is it s$%#ing?

Jerry, are all the lights up?

Karl, hope the doctor visit was all good news.

I hope everyone is feeling well.
What's everyone else doing?

Star and I did 8.72 miles and 2,323' EG on the Hualapai Peak Trail.
There was frozen s#$@ and ice on some sections, but was able to remain upright the whole time.
Today is a rest day before doing another hike tomorrow.

This was a view last week from my Bullhead City camp.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning crew! Thanks for the coffee Rick. Looks like 4 or 5 inches of the white stuff.

Nothing happening here.

Have a great day!

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening and breakfast Rick. Enjoy your rest day.

I was supposed to take a walk this morning but have caught the family crud from MOH. :-\ I don't know if anything will be accomplished today other than taking it easy.

Oh well, I'm still on the green side of the grass.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Morning Gents,

Rick thanks for the coffee and eggs this morning. After that long a hike I'd need a day to rest as well; heck I couldn't even make it that far. Yup the s*ow is a cum'in down; probably another 5 inches.

Philip our grocery stores get whacked before a snowfall; you'd think people around here would be used to it by now.

Curt hope you feel better soon.

What's the rest of you up to.

It's a nippy 25 with a high of 32. Hope to get a call this morning saying my snowblower tire is ready then more fun. Took down Fall decorations yesterday and started with the Christmas lights in the windows; hope to finish that today. Maybe some bench time; I'm starting to feel like Jerry.

Have a great day!! Be well and easy if you're dealing with the white crap.

Light snow this morning, it's sticking on the roads.  We'll be on the snow/sleet/rain line for much of this, so we could get as much as 8" or as little (when the storm is done) as 1".  

Back to the exercise machine and train room, the dog that had the runs for the past nearly week is doing much better.  No trips out in the middle of the night last night.  Dog & owners both happy about that.

Hazy bright and cold, teens, in Michigan this morning. 

No new snow here.  Closer to Lk Michigan there is a forecast of lake effect 3-4" in places.

PLAN is close to home.

BTW, brief 'wellness check' was brief, A1C a bit lower and an OK to go until June 1. Rx renewals were done.  May need to run out for them today or tomorrow.

A couple of 3d experiments in progress. 

KSinMI.

Good morning Rick, Philip, Curt, Larry Dave, Karl and the rest of the crew that drops in later.

Thanks for the coffee and breakfast Rick.  The last F1 race of the tear is going to determine who wins the driver's championship that's to Max's win and Maclaren's questionable pit strategy.

Currently -5c (23f) and snowing, only supposed to get an inch or so.  Had a busy few days with our module setup this weekend and a road trip for work yesterday.  Spent a good chunk of the weekend showing a couple of guys how to hand lay track. A great time was had by all.  We shall see what tonight brings.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning all,

Thanks for breakfast Rick. The 8.7 mile hike is a good one. Enjoy the day of rest.

Curt, Sorry you now have the crud. Going around for sure. Feel better very soon.

You guys talking about the white stuff is making me cold. Its 59 here now with a little liquid white stuff.

Bowling at noon. Pam is staying home to continue to regain her strength. This is the end of the third week for her. She is much better and no longer coughing but, still weak from the crappy crud.

I forgot to mention my Georgia cousin, Geary Langford, passed on Thanksgiving morning. He suffered with colon cancer for the past 6 years. Thankfully, he is no longer suffering. I'll attend the funeral this Friday in Thomasville, Ga. I've also been asked to give a Eulogy. He is the second cousin I've lost since June.

Have a safe and healthy day everyone.

Tom

Dave,
 The rest of us would be happy if you quit talkin about the dog with the runs, once was enough!

Good morning folks,

Rick, thanks for opening, coffee, and breakfast. Glad you remained upright on that long hike.

Philip, congrats on the castings and prints.  Stay warm.

Curt, that stuff is going around.  Get well soon.

Larry, have fun with the Christmas decorations.

Dave, glad the dog is feeling better.

Karl, good luck with the 3D printing.

TomACL, good to hear Pam is feeling better.  Good luck on the lanes.

Jerry, hope you make it to the bench.

Rich, wishing you a good day.

How is the rest of the crew?

It's overcast and rainy here.  Temps aren't too cold at 46°F, headed to 50°F.  The family left, and I am exhausted from standing and cooking gumbo.  It was tasty if I do say so myself.  I'm not sure what the day holds, probably keeping the recliner from hitting the ceiling.

Have fun,
mike
