Good morning Guardians, quiet here, is everyone over in the KOTY thread?!My internet connection is still bad today, not sure what is going on, it's very frustrating
I hope everyone had a good week, and that your weekend is full of excitement. With Christmas approaching there can be a lot on, I ended up double-booked for something tomorrow unfortunately. I have an online meeting this afternoon, and am hoping to finally get some cards written!
I still have L'Ariete in my pocket
Have a great day Guardians

It snowed again. Probably about two inches, and not worth putting in earplugs; I'll see how it goes with the old-fashioned way.

On the other hand, I'm past the age where I have to prove I can still do it the old fashioned way, and the earplug route is faster.
Thanks Steve, stay warm up there.![]()
Barrett, thanks for the detailed answer. I'm looking for one to just hold my lamb collection.
Very nice flock!![]()
Interesting Barrett, I thought they didn't advertise it anymore, but what do I know, I don't even watch TV!![]()
Oh no! I hope you're ok buddy, us big guys come down hard!![]()
I think this is my mango, becoming addled in my old age.View attachment 3047912
Barrett,
What a nice collection of Lambs and a beautiful new barn to house them!
Great idea Barrett. May have to get rid of my tools.You might need one of these for all your Lambs, Bob.

Beautiful character in that wood!
Thanks, Dave!
Hope everyone’s weekend is off to a good start! It’s cold here in Minnesota (big surprise, I know).Supposed to get all the way up to 1°F today, then down to -14°F overnight tonight.
And it’s only December!
Last night we went to see The Muppet Christmas Carol at the Minnesota Orchestra Hall in downtown Minneapolis. All of the music for the film was played by the live orchestra. I had seen this kind of performance advertised before (usually for a Harry Potter film or something similar), but this was the first one we’d ever attended. It was great!

Since we were at the orchestra, I figured I had to go with a fancy Lambsfoot.

Seeing them at the cinema always comes as a shock to me!We stream just about everything we watch these days, and haven’t had regular cable or satellite TV for years, so we don’t see that many regular TV ads anymore. (Not that they don’t find other ways of shoving ads in our faces every day.)![]()
Fantastic Barrett, what a great family night out...er, I'm assuming you took the kids!Hope everyone’s weekend is off to a good start! It’s cold here in Minnesota (big surprise, I know).Supposed to get all the way up to 1°F today, then down to -14°F overnight tonight.

Thunderous! It was more like 4 inches, of fluffy powder for a change.Is it that noisy when it snows there Jer?
Sounds like a plan.I'm hoping that a glass of wine, and a movie will distract me enough from this afternoon's work issues,
Yikes, hope it warmed up Steve!![]()
Sweet knife![]()

I hope everyone has had a better day than meLast night, I agreed to give up my Saturday to take part in a "really, really important" online meeting at 2pm, which cut my day in two. The subject was indeed important, but I missed the meeting because of the individual administering it, which was both frustrating, and very annoying. I'm not really satisfied with the apology I've received either
In other news, I'm trying to clear out a few things, and since I had a spare Feurhand storm lantern, I'd picked up in the market a while back, I offered it to a friend, who happily snapped it up. Then I discovered that, at the least I'm going to have to fit a new wick, and quite possibly a whole new burner unit, both of which are priced exploitatively! Wish I could bring myself to just throw stuff in the bin, like normal people!
I'm hoping that a glass of wine, and a movie will distract me enough from this afternoon's work issues, for me to get some sleep without punching the pillow
Have a great evening Guardians

Wrong thread, could you edit your post please?
LOL!Thunderous! It was more like 4 inches, of fluffy powder for a change.
Sounds like a plan.
I did have some luck at the antiquing. See good old fixed blades or newest addition thread.
Thanks buddy, I hope you're managing to keep warmThanks Jack, it warmed up slightly but it's already heading back down below zero.
Sorry to hear of your frustrating day . L'Ariete is sure looking good though![]()
Nice choice Mitch
Hope to see White Shadow again soonToday is White Shadow's last day as Lambsfoot of the Week, so I should post a few more photos. I don't think I've posted any of these photos before (I took them last month), but they probably involve familiar themes from some of my "photo series" such as knives/boots, knives/mums, and knives/garden.sculptures.
