General Board / Re: The weather 2024
Last post by SwampDonkey - Today at 03:31:35 AMNo fire yesterday morning, but afternoon sun and open windows cooled it off a little, so made an evening smudge. I leave my bedroom window open from April onward until we get that heat and high humidity days. Late evening or a nice summer cold front and up she goes again. 
Could see some rain mid week, but so far their rain forecasts have turned into dry popcorn. 
Fiddle heads here are gone by now, 2 foot tall fronds now. And I never saw any last week up at a couple patches I have. Mom bought some from a neighbor, ate some, froze some, gave some away to a couple senior friends.

Last post by SwampDonkey - Today at 03:18:41 AMI never checked until 3:00 am this morning. If there was a show, it was over by then. Nice view of the milky way running from South to NE direction. Not a cloud in the sky here. Again.

Last post by Crossroads - Today at 02:31:14 AMNo regrets on getting the wide head. At the time it was only an $800 upgrade and worth every penny.

The Outdoor Board / Re: whippoorwill
Last post by newoodguy78 - Yesterday at 11:33:36 PMcfarm I used to spend weekends at my gram's house when I was growing up, one of the things I always remembered hearing was the whippoorwill singing away as I went to bed. Very fond memories.
Up until last year it had probably been 30 years since I heard that wonderful sound. As I came in the house tonight the question of if I'd hear one this year was on my mind. I hope so.

General Board / Re: Busting a boulder
Last post by Don P - Yesterday at 10:43:44 PMI did fires and water on the ~pickup sized one mostly buried behind the barn. We won about 20 years later when it broke into small enough pieces to move.
