Good morning one and all. I was up every couple of hours throughout the night checking on the outside temperature. Freeze/frost is an expensive proposition in the nursery business. Looks like we dodged a bullet with the low reaching 40. A few degrees lower and it could have killed a number of plants. I went over at 05:00 AM and turned on the irrigation at the nurseries and here at the house nursery. The warmer ground waters will keep the plants happy till the temps go up later this morning. The temps will start to rise to more suitable levels. Knowing I was going to have that kind of night I went to bed at 09:00 PM. I'm glad I did. May jump back in bed for an early morning nap ..... because I can and because I don't want to be outside till after 10:00 anyway. Sue's alarm just went off. She'll be up an at em in no time now. My guess is the price is going to go up on orange juice futures. ;)

CLEAR AND COLD THIS MORNING, BUT WE MAY HIT 50 TODAY. THE CHEROKEES WOULD BE GRATEFUL. PICKED UP MY WORLD TRAVELER LAST NIGHT AT THE TULSA AIRPORT. THE NEW PARKING SET UP IS LABYRINTHINE. AT LEAST THEY DO HAVE SHUTTLE BUSES AND GIVE YOU A TICKET THAT SHOWS WHERE YOU PARKED. WITHOUT THAT I MIGHT STILL BE THERE LOOKING FOR MY TRUCK :-0 DW BROUGHT ME A LOAF OF GOOD GERMAN RYE BREAD FROM HER MUNICH STOPOVER. YUM! |

Hidey-ho! Glad to hear your plants are OK, Tommy. They would be frozen statues of plants here. I'm working from home today, and could use a nap already myself.
Have a good day, all! |

Morning guys....late start for me. When the alarm went off, I just turned it off and slept for another hour. Chilly here this morning, 17 but is supposed to recover into the low 50s.
I have 23 more fixtures to swap over to LEDs at the church hall, so that's what is on the agenda today. Glad you dodged the bullet Tommy. Gris, glad the Mrs got home OK. Travelling in that part of the world is kind of spooky for Americans. Well, I got to get around, catch you later. Have a great day folks. |

Busy day here. I went down and started the LED conversions by myself, then Rosie came dow to help then one guy came down...although I was the only one actually doing the conversions, Rosie and the other guy hauled the junk pieces out. Worked until about 1 and then the third guy came and we finished the project up by 3. I believe that everyone will be tickled with the change.
Just walked in the door and the phone was ringing....a guy who was having computer problems, so I told him to bring it by, and hour later I have him running, but now it's too late to go over to the 'city' and get my paint for cabinets I'll be starting next week. I guess I'll just have to relax tonight and do the paint tomorrow. That place would be really bad for me Tommy. Like you, If I had a billion dollars....... It did make it to 50 today, but was cloudy most of the day. |
