As we close the door on 2017, Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year! My 2017 started out fine but didn't finish so well.In November ,I had a mild stroke.....everything turned out fine with no permanent damage.During the testing done to determine the cause,it was discovered that I had several blocked arteries.I was wisked off to surgery at which time they tried unsuccessfully to balloon and stint the problem areas.I was told that I needed immediate open heart bypass surgery and that they also detected a problem with a valve in my heart.A day later I was in Sioux Falls So. Dakota having surgery. 6 bypasses and a valve adjustment later, I am on the road to recovery.It is amazing what those surgeons can do.....he says things turned out well and that with a change in diet and losing a few pounds, I should have a few good years left! 2018 has got to be better!

Happy New Year to everyone, and hope next year is better for everybody. I always hate to see a year end, but find that the new year gives you a fresh start.

Happy New Year...already... Wasn't the 4th of July just last week? Time is going by way too fast!

Just came in from raiding the woodpile (it's 0 degrees  & falling) and noticed the full moon in the crystal clear night sky. A chorus of coyotes was singing out of tune. It's gotta mean something.

Quote from: "58 Yeoman"Happy New Year to everyone, and hope next year is better for everybody. I always hate to see a year end, but find that the new year gives you a fresh start.

 "Fresh Start"..righty right :lol: Like I did not change the starter relay..(2 second job..about $10 that makes one of my trucks not start below -15C that has been like that for years now)(( Starts fine when boosted)) ((( the relay is ACTUALLY in the glove box)))and my booster pack which has been inconsistent for about a year now too :roll:..(looks like that needs to be replaced as in now :lol: ) and the new battery I put in it about 1 1/2 years ago is taking a winter holiday..for good :evil:
 No worries though :lol: between the almost dead 1 1/2 year old battery in that truck, the  inconsistent booster pack,bypassing the relay, another battery left basically frozen in the barn for a year in tandem to help boost too (that one lasted about 1 1/2 years too((ouch..almost $200 for that one :evil:))  pushing -30C, howling winds,our about 6" of snow per day for about 2 weeks now,under the hood pretty much packed with snow,it just fired right up 8)
  Today is nice! No exposed skin..no googles?= no go outside :lol: Bundled up in my big insulated suit and went for a walk.
  My better half..one of her friends has boarded their big,beautiful black German Shepherd here and he was just HAPPILY laying around outside in the snow. Not cold at all..didn't want to go in the house..

   HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE :D
