Edit.
I'm thinking there's a bunch of retirees here.
May have to exclude "at work".
......might limit participation.

Congratulations.21°F and sunny this morning. We escaped the latest storm by a few miles. Very little snow but lots of freezing rain. Communities to the west and north are still without power but should be restored soon.
First official day of retirement.

Wow...you'll thaw out fast later this week.Well, this may be my last post....... of the season, unless Mother Nature tosses another curveball.
It was 33° at wake-up and should reach a high of 40° today. The forecast is predicting temps in the high 70's to low 80's for the end of the week.
I dug out this Ranger Pro from the bottom of the drawer because of another thread. I added a Kwik stud this morning to solve a hiccup while opening. That worked so well that I threw caution to the wind and opened up the CBN rod that I had ordered months ago for my Sharpmaker. I had some issues in the past trying to restore a nice edge on the blade but the new rod worked beautifully. A light touch with some fine Emery cloth on the bolsters restored the brushed finish and whatta-ya-know, she's back in action after a long hiatus.

That thaw is causing some worry. We've had Colorado Lows for each of the last three weekends. The first one dumped 88cm (34") of snow. The next weekend Brough another 33cm (12") and this last weekend saw 30mm or 1 inch of rain.Wow...you'll thaw out fast later this week.
High of 93 for me today.
93° definitely justifies a new thread...Wow...you'll thaw out fast later this week.

We're ok here, some flooding, but our city can handle it. My buddy that lives near the N.D. border isn't as lucky. Their town is under a partial evacuation order as well as a boil water advisory.
