Our lame a$$ governor just declared a storm emergency, including my county. We only had a few trees blow over. So every time it snows and blows it’s now an emergency, WTF?
Trees? Sure you're not in Idaho?

Doing your own sewing? Rosey Greer would be proud of you.
I wonder if he had man sized thimbles?
Geno
Not to be a nit-picker but I believe Rosey Grier's passion was needlepoint. Yes, and while I'm not 100% sure, I do believe needlepoint involves a needle and thread (yarn?) . Depending on what is being needlepointed, perhaps some thick fabric, one might just need a thimble. In Rosey's case, one to fit him (and Jim maybe? ) could serve double duty as a shotglass too. And, if his needlepoint didn't involve thimbles, I'm sure Rosey would still be proud of Mr. Conrad for engaging in the manly art of stitchery. Conrad at least has changed his avatar so as not to be accused of being less manly, especially when combined with mentioning his taking up sewing. He's a brave man for letting us in on his clothing repair hobby. Geno

While perhaps the emergency title is not warranted, I'm glad our Western storms are finally getting some due respect by "the Media". So many years one would here about the "severe weather warnings" in the Midwest, or tropical storm/hurricane warnings on the Gulf and East coast. Yet hardly ever a word about the huge storms coming down out of the Gulf of Alaska every year, with hurricane force winds on the PNW coast and over the passes in the mountains, storms that cover all or part of 6-7 states, drop temperatures multiple tens of degrees, drop feet of snow and rain, and generally wreak havoc. Bias abounded, might even call it "Coastist". As if we Westerners didn't amount to much, because after all, what's the storm hurting? Some forests and few cows maybe? Geno

I just got a call from Garfield county in MT, "Come on out for antelope and stay in my flooded basement."

Just drove through my 1st blizzard of the year, Sideways snow, 50 yards of visibility and a semi passing @ 1mph faster than the other semi. On a 2 lane road. I don't think it was 'Boomer. This was south of Wells, Nv.
JC, my FIL was a coal miner from Yorkshire and had the largest hands I have ever seen. He used a shot glass for a thimble, a true multi tasker.
Sam, good luck w/ that jacket. I once spent too much money on a Barbour Jacket for MC racing, it was horrible and I gave it away.
Kingston, it rains in China too.
To all; a good cowboy hat works great when peeing in a snowstorm!

ZERO guilt about being a lazy ass...... Just wait until retirement. It goes from zero guilt to negative guilt some days...................... on other days I actually think I should have accomplished "something" Geno PS, break in the clouds now, I think I'm going out to do something.

Geno, some of the best help around is retired guys! They generally don't wreck equipment and show up on time. It works quite well when you let them work on their schedule, they aren't looking to do any overtime.......grin Jim, you had more company than we did! Pork roast and squash in the oven.

Colt, it makes me sick.
The only guys I know that are done cutting farm south of the river(Missouri).
It's a major wreck north of here.
I'm more worried now about haying than the little bit of wheat we have left to cut.

Still nothing here. 40 degrees. The mountains are looking fairly snowy with most of the snow on the eastern slope. Wind is down a bit so I think I'll walk out and see what the elk think of it. GD
