Random Thought Thread

Since we are expecting 12" of snow this week, and single digit temps, I thought I better get after the winterizing...

First, mow the grass... in what is left over from the 3" of snow we got Thursday :mad::thumbsdown:

Then:
Blow/rake/bag leaves
Put away deck chairs
Blow out sprinklers (that were used 4 days ago! almost 80 degrees)
Shovel off snow on my deck
Winter fertilizer on the grass
Kill some yellow jackets :mad:

This is the single most bizarre day of the year.

Yep, crazy "Fall" this year... :eek: Here in the SW corner of Denver, we've had 7" of snow twice already (Wednesday night most recently), and already hit 15º one night (and several nights in the 20's).

Today was beautiful, mid 70's and sunny. However...

We're possibly getting 1/10" of ice tonight, followed by 1-3" of snow tomorrow, 5-9" Monday, and another 1-3" Tuesday into Wednesday morning. Temps the next 4 days? 29º/11º tomorrow, 29º/9º Monday, and 22º/3º Tuesday and Wednesday!!! :eek: Lol! :rolleyes:
 
Random thought: an unpopular opinion, but I think that daylight savings time is wonderful...
In my twenties I would have agreed with you at least one night a year.
Back then my hobby was drinking and there was that one glorious night every year when the bar was effectively open until 3:30am instead of 2:30am.
Of course, these days four beers and I’m hung over for a day... so it doesn’t matter to me anymore.

Casinostocks Casinostocks , thanks for the links! Several people involved in giving me some guidance on these, and so happy to have this board to lead me.

Pulled the trigger on dying some unbuffed natural micarta today. The grip stayed the same, but the color speaks to me a lot more now. I've got a bunch of pictures of the process. If you're looking to do it, hit me up. Couldn't be happier with the results and the ease of the project. I kinda wish I'd left a little black out, but finding a color is tough. Once you're in, you're in. No turning back!
