It's snowing sideways and the temp is dropping fast. It won't amount to much they say? I did get the lawn fertalized today before the snow set in. I guess the shop doors wil stay shut for a few days.  :'(

Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

Wow ghost, I can see why the snow was sideways! It came through here last night on an ESE direction. Missed me by 30 miles north, but Wichita caught it. 68 to 89 mph straight line winds and hail. Lots of damage around there.

Well Tom, spring is definitely here. At least you won't have to deal with these nasty critters yet. One of my buddies fellow co workers got home to this rattler at his back door this afternoon. He said he was glad he beat the wife and kids home!

Well the good news is no snow today..The bad news is we had freezing rain last night and everything is covered with a sheet of ice. I was going to prune my crab-apple tree today but I'd have to attack it with an ice pick first. It's suppose to warm up for the weekend but I've heard that story before. ;)

Holy crap, Sammons!! I would have pooped my pants!! :o Do you kill that thing or just chace it away? Nothing like that in my neck of the woods.
Rainy and cold all week, getting warm and sunny starting Friday through the weekend :)
Tighten it up til it strips, then back it off a quarter turn

Chopper, in populated areas around here they are killed. Their heads are cut off and buried. Out in the country they are usually left alone especially around varment areas (prairie dog towns etc., unless they venture into the farm house areas. The canyon areas to the south of us are full of them nasty things. I use to take my weed eater with me checking out old cars. Weed eat up to and all around them first, then proceeded with caution. They like it in the shade when its hot out (under and in the cars). :o

Sammons,
I'm not a big fan of snakes! You can keep them down your way.  The worst we get is a skunk hanging out near the house.  Not a big fan of those either :)

We have several springs on our property. In the desert where there is water there are rodents and where there are rodents there are snakes. Fortunately the Great Basin variety is not as large or aggressive as some of the others. Even so both of my dogs were bitten last year, one of them twice. I have killed dozens over the years around the house and yard, two in my shop. You have to pay attention. There are lots of funny stories, well they are funny now. ::)

Mowed today for the first time this year and killed my first snake of the year while mowing. They seem to be out early.
