Merry CHRISTMAS to all.

It is cold down south

 

 

Hello all, we are having cold weather already, it usualy does not get this cold until January but we have broken a few records that are up to 32 years old.  The temperature got down to   24 º F (-4ºC) Wednesday night,  down to 27º F (-3ºC) last night and it is going down to 31ºF tonight. The weather folks keep saying it is cold Canadian air, so yall be nice now and take it back.  Thank you.

The lord is our shepherd

We almost got wiped out on the way up to our cabin 2 weeks ago.  A propane gas tanker truck was going south as we were going north, it lost one of the caps that screw onto their fill nozzle, and guess what, yep right through our windshield, hit the door trim molding next to Mary's head, then it took out the back window and then bounced back up to the front and hit my hat and broke another place on the windshield before falling onto the dash and breaking it and the front speaker.  It just barely missed Mary, and it broke the panel on the doorjamb right by her head.  With the truck going at about 65 mph and us going the other way at 65 mph, that five pound cap must have been traveling at about 120 mph when it hit us. The good Lord was surely with us that time.

 

 

Yall come see us when ya can

Hey, it is cold down here, take this cold weather back up there.

 

Yep, yall have done us in, we are getting a shot of frigid weather from our Canadian cousins.  We had our first frost on Thanksgiving eve, November 23, for us.  Then it stayed in the mid 60's to low 70's untill this last Friday night, since then it has been below freezing each night.  It was 30ºF on Friday night and 29ºF last night and it is hovering on 32ºF tonight, so I would guess it will be around 29 or 30 by morning.

Thanksgiving

Well, we had a nice Thanks Giving dinner. I meant to take a before and after picture, but forgot the before one. Here is the after one, as you can see the table reaches all the way into the living room. There were only 15 here today for dinner, usually there are 25 or more. They will all be here for Christmas though.

Yall come see us when ya can.

Almost Thanksgiving down south

 

 Hi Yall.

We are back from the river, the cabin has a new roof and I replaced the broken skylight and the water damaged floors.  There is still a lot of work ahead for the Spring, but everything is in order for the winter weather.  I didn't quite get finished with the roof, but I got tired and we came home anyway.  I only lack 1/2 of the roof on the deck (about 3 bundles of shingles) and the tornado didn't hurt them to badly.  We had a lot of rain when we first got there but then it cleared off and the weather was nice for Friday, Sat and Sunday.  On the way up there we were hit by a hose cap off of a propane tanker, it weighs about 5 pounds.  I came through the front windshield on the passenger side, glanced off the door post, took out the back glass then bounced back up to the front, clipping my ear and hat before landing on the dash, breaking the windshield again and the speaker and speaker grill.

Lucky for us it missed us except for brushing my ear, so neither of us was hurt.  I taped up the windshield and put some cardboard in the back window for the trip home and I reckon on Monday I will get them replaced.

Anyway, the good Lord was watching out for us and we are home safely.

Yall come see us when ya can.

Well well well, guess who came to supper - Yep, Dave & Karen Barker, all the way from Vancouver, BC

 

 Hello all, we just spent a very nice evening with David (Uncle Cecil & Aunt Janet's eldest son) and Karen Barker.  It was a very nice visit but the time flew so fast, it seemed like they had just arrived and it was time for them to go.  They are touring the state of Tennessee this year.  Mary and I hope they will come again one day soon.

yep, still working

Hi all,

Yep, I am still working at the Halloween costume store but will be off for 2 edays now.  The weather here now is in the mid to high 60's during the day and mid 40's at night.

I will try to write more soon.  I would also be happy to put in items that you write and email to me.

 

 

We are back from the tornado damage.

 

Our cabin up in the Ozark Mountains was hit by a tornado a few weeks ago, we finally were able to get up there and assess our damage.  It uprooted 5 of our 7 apple trees put a tree through one corner of the house and ripped the roof off, there was also a lot of minor damage but that was the big part.  Most of the trees around the cabin have been broken in two  or the tops twisted off. Mary and I ripped up the floor in one of the bedrooms and part of the kitchen down to the sub floor. We will go up in a week or so and refloor them. We will have to replace our skylight and re roof it before the end of November.                                                                   

We have the roof covered with blue tarps now. We have lots of work up there before we close it up for the winter and more work in the spring. Here are a few pics.

Well the tornado got us ---

Yep, a tornado hit us on Saturday morning around 10 AM and did extensive damage to our cabin over in Arkansas.  It put a tree down on one corner of the place and blew out one of my skylights.  I reckon we got off lucky, our next door neighbors place took a direct hit and was totaly destroyed.  The hole in the roof has been covered with a tarp, so I guess that is all we can do for it for the next few weeks, then we will be going up for a week or so to fix what we can before winter sets in.  Such is life, at least none of our folks got hurt, although there were 2 people drowned upriver from us and another 2 people are still missing.  The river flooded and floated off a bunch of cabins  and camper trailors.  We built our place on high ground so didn't have to worry about the flood.

 

 

Hi everyone, we are home again.

Hello all, well we finally got a nice break in the weather, we had a nice rain yesterday and the temperature came down below 80ºF (27ºC) today. it was 78ºF (26ºC).  It will be down in the 60's tonight.  Just came back from a working trip to the cabin, no time for fishing this trip but we plan to go up one more time to close up for the winter in about 3 weeks, I hope to get a little fishing time in then.  Hope everyone is well everyone down this-a-way are doing fine.

Our weather is still the same -

Our weather is still just like last time, except we finaly did get a little rain tonight.  Temperatures in the mid 80's during the day and mid 60's at night, couldn't ask for better weather.

Everyone down this way is doing well so far as I know.

 

 

Yall come see us when ya can.

The weather is just gorgeous

Yep, the weather down this-a-way is just gorgous.  It is running about 85 to 88ºF(29 to 31ºC) and at night it is around 62 to 65ºF (17 to 18ºC).  It is just great.  Tomorrow (Thursday 7 Sept.) I will plant our fall garden so we will have fresh peas and greens till spring planting time comes around.

I hope yall are having weather as good as ours, but we could use some rain.

These items were sent to my by Stevie's friends

These items were sent to me by Friends of our Grandson Steven "Hoss" Davis. The one is the cross they erected for him at the site where he died, the other just seemed relevant to the occasion.

Our weather has finaly changed

Hello all, our temperature has finally dropped out of the 90's (33ºC) and is now in the mid to high 80's (31ºC) today.  It is a nice change and we also got a little rain with it last night.  We are going up to our cabin this weekend to get away.  After this last week we need a few days to collect our thoughts and just relax.  We had the funeral for our Stevie (Hoss) yesterday and then in the afternoon the young people in town erected a 14 ft. steel cross at the site where Stevie died.  They even got a building permit from the city to make sure it was all legal.  It was heartening to Gramaw & I and the rest of the family to see how much he was Loved by the folks in our community.  We all will surely miss our "Hoss".

 

 

Cousin Carol Ingraham - Aunt Mary's daughter

Cousin Carol Ingraham sent me some pictures of herself and some of her paintings, here is one of her and one of her paintings labeled "Wolf".

We have a great loss in our family.

It breaks my heart to let yall know that We have lost our oldest Grandson.  Steven Lynn (HOSS) Davis,

Aug. 2, 1979  - August 27, 2006.

Steven was in an auto accident and was killed on Sunday morning on his way to work.  He had a heart as big as he was and thought that his place in life was to help all who needed help in any way he could.  We will surely miss his happy face, hearty laugh and bright smile.

Steven was such a kind and giving person, he was known to his friends and family as;

           "Hoss"

 

 

This is even better, down to 92ºF

Yep, down to 92ºF today, (33ºC). Now this is more the way I like it.

 Monday, August 21, 2006 

Yep, today we are getting a break, the temperature is only 95º F (35º C) this cool weather sure feels better.  I came down with the flue last Wed. and am just beginning to get over it.  Everyone else down this a way is well so far as I know.

Hello all - - we had a break from the 100 degree weather

 

we had a 2 day break from the 100 degree weather for a few days, but it is back with us now.  I reckon with it being in the last throes of summer it will cool down pretty soon.  According to the weather news it will not cool down for at least the next week though.   only a couple of weeks away from Labor Day weekend.

Yall come see us when ya can.

Just back from the cabin ---

 

Hello all, well we are back home again, it was about 10ºF cooler up there, we should have stayed a few more days.  I was to lazy to fish, so just lazed around and watched the canoers go by.  It was nice and cool down by the river, our cabin sits on a hill looking down on it.

 

Yall come see us when ya can.

I see that not all my posts to the blog are getting there.

I have just noticed that all of the items I have posted are not getting through to the blog.  The last entry was posted on Aunt Margarets Birthday but never showed up, so I have just re-posted it.  I am headed for the Ozark Mountains again fishing, will write more when we return next Monday.

Subject: Hello all, hope everyone is doing OK.

Today is Aunt Margaret Barker's Birthday, she is 82 years old.

We are spending a couple of weeks at home for a change, but will be going back up to the Ozarks and our cabin this friday.  The weather has been a little on the warm side, we had a few weeks of 100 degree + weather but now it is back to the low and mid 90's. Not to bad.  We had a nice rain this afternoon, about 1/4 inch.  We sure needed it.

 

Yall come see us when ya can.

Hi all, have a great weekend, I have gone fishing.

 

 We have gone fishing back up to our cabin, be back Monday night or Tuesday.

Yall come see us when ya can.

Hi Yall, back from the cabin for a few days.

 

 Hi yall,

Yep, I am back from the cabin for a few days, went up and caught a few rainbow trout.  We had 27 people up there for the 4th of July weekend.  Our Children, Grandchildren and 4 of our Great Grandchildren.  Some of them brought their tents and we had a fire down on our island every night with marshmallows and hot-dogs too.  The weather was great and we all had a great time.  On Saturday a bunch of them went up to Missouri and floated back down to our place in canoes, about 16 miles. Some of them did a bottoms up in the white waters, but they all seemed to have fun.  There was a little sunburn after that though.  We are going back up this coming Thursday and will be back home on the 17th.

Overworked -YEP

OVERWORKED
===========


For a couple years I've been blaming it on lack of sleep,
not enough sunshine, too much pressure from my job, earwax
buildup, poor blood or anything else I could think of.

But now I found out the real reason:
I'm tired because I'm overworked . . . Here's why:

The population of this country is 273 million.
140 million are retired.
That leaves 133 million to do the work.

There are 85 million in school,
which leaves 48 million to do the work.

Of this there are 29 million employed by the federal government,
leaving 19 million to do the work.

2.8 million are in the armed forces.
Which leaves 16.2 million to do the work.

Take from the total the 14,800,000 people who work for state and
city governments.
And that leaves 1.4 million to do the work.

At any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals,
leaving 1,212,000 to do the work.

Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons.

That leaves just two people to do the work.

You and I.

And there you are sitting at your computer reading this
MountainWings issue.

Leaving me to do all the work.

 

 

Yall come see us when ya can.

Nothing new to report from down here ----

Nothing new to report so I am going fishing up at the cabin. We are picking Squash, beans, cucumbers, greens and green tomatoes, radishes are gone to hot to plant them again until fall. Oh ya, the blackberries are in too. Be back next week.

Yall come see us when ya can.

Hello all, we are finally home-----

 

 The weather down here is in the hi 80's to low 90's during the day and mid 60's to low 70's at night.  Very nice weather for sure.  We had a great time up at the cabin but decided to stay home this weekend and rest up.  This Sunday is our Church home comming weekend too.   We will be going back up next Thursday and come home the following Monday.  The fish were biting well, a limit of rainbow trout were not to hard to catch at all.

That is all for this time,

Yall come see when ya can.

 

Yep, we are back but going again tomorrow

 

Hi all, well we had a great trip up to the cabin.  The temperatures here now have moved into summer.  Hi 80's to low 90's ( 32 to 33º C)daytime, 70's (24º C) at night.  We are going back up to the cabin in the morning, this time I am going fishing. Many of our family will be there for our holiday weekend.  Memorial day for us is next Monday, we will be back home next Tuesday.  Yall take care and have a great weekend.

Yall come see us now, ya hear.

 

Just nice weather and getting ready to head up to the mountains.

 

We are having wonderful weather, our trip to the Ozarks has been delayed but it won't be long.  The weather here is in the low 80's (27 º C) during the day and hi 50's to mid 60's (15 to 18º C) at night. Spring has moved into early Summer. 

Yall take care.

Not much happening down this-a-way except the weather.

Yep, Temperatures are in the hi 70 and low 80's and we have had rain every day for the last week.  It is supposed to rain again tomorrow but be dry for the weekend, hope it works that way.  I may not get another blog out for the next week, we are going up to our cabin in the Ozark Mountains to open it up for the year.  Get the water and electricity turned on and see if we had any damage during the winter.  We usually have a crowd up there for Memorial day weekend, (last weekend in May) so I have to get it all fixed up before then.

 

Till next time, yall take care

 

 

I've been loafing and not posting, sorry about that ------

 

 Well, the storms and tornadoes made another run on us last night, this time they went to the south of us by about 8 miles so we are all safe and sound.  We had a little over 2 inches of rain in about a 4 hour period with lots of wind and lightning.

 

  I have been having a little run in with my health here of late.  I have to go back tomorrow and maybe then we can get it all under control.

 

The garden is all planted except the tomatoes and we will plant them probably on Friday if the ground is dry enough or as soon as the ground dries up enough to plant them.  Well, can't think of anything else to say except take care yall and

"Yall come and see us now,    ya'hear".

 

Hey yall, we have been found by a new cousin ----

Yep, Patricia Doherty has caught up with us.  Patricia is Aunt Leola and Uncle Bill Harses Grandaughter.  She lives close to Saskatoon SK. way up there in the North country.  Her Mother was Leota Harse, Leota was older than most of us and has passed away.  They lived in England most of her life, but I understand they have been living in Canada for about the last 4 or 5 years.

 

Anyway, yall say hello to our newfound cousin.

 

 

Which is worse ---???

 

 I don't know what is worse, shoveling snow or cutting grass.  I spent most of Saturday cutting grass, with the temperature in the low 80's it is a sweaty job.  I haven't shoveled snow in many years, but as I remember it, it was cold hard work.  I'll take the grass cutting myself.  The temperatures here are in the high 70's to low 80's now with a cool front that yall send down to us every now and again dropping it back to the low 70's for a day or two.

Last night the cool front clashed with the warm air causing several tornadoes around the area.  Quite a few folks were killed about 60 miles north of here and over in Arkansas.  The thunder boomers were quite intense at times.  Some of them were dropping as much as 20 inches of rain per hour, of course they were moving at 30 to 60 miles per hour, so no one got 20 inches in an hour.  We had one come through here with wind gusts of 36 miles per hour and lots of rain but we had no damage from it  otherwise, we just had lots of rain.

Fw: Not much happening here

 

 

 

Not much happening here, the daytime temperatures are staying in the low to mid 70's and night time temperatures in the low 50's.  It is lovely spring weather.  . I love the springtime when the world wakes up from winter,.  it is the most wonderful time of the year, I think.

This from cousin Albert Harse ------ see both pics

 

Only in Canada EH. 32 deg at 10 and 48 degs by 1pm, and they are calling for high 60's within a few days..... We still have all four seasons in a week.

Yep and we are in the mid to hi 70's looking at low 80's by weeks end.
Al sent us a couple of pictures.

 

From Cousin Rick and Connie Barker up at Port Elgin, Ont.

 

 

Cousin Rick and Connie sent me a few pictures of their snow.  Looks like they had a bunch of it.  Here are a couple of the Pictures.

What a week ---- Happy St. Patricks day to all.

 

 It has been a very busy week, Mary has been poking around in the flower beds and pulling all the leaves away from the flower beds.  Our grass is growing pretty good now, won't be long before we start grass cutting.  I have finished getting my stuff ready for warmer weather. Cranked up the weed wacker and lawnmower, I reckon on Monday I will put the battery back in the rider and give it a tuneup.  We have our early garden started, the greens are coming up good and the tomato seeds are planted in their flats, (didn't see any sprouting yet, but they should be up this week).  We hope everyone had a nice St. Patricks day.

 

well it cooled off a little, ----------------------------------------

 

Yep, it cooled off a little, we are back in the 60's which is our normal temperatures for this time of year.

 

great day today, --------------------------------------------------------

 

Hello All,

Great day today, temperature broke the 80 (27º C) degree mark, 84ºF (29º C)here today.  Just a gorgeous day.

 

Yep, a few thunder boomers and lots of wind and rain.-------

Well, we have had a few thunder boomers (thunder storms) lots of rain and 35 to 40k winds, but no problems.  The tornadoes were to the west of us, over in Arkansas and south of us, down in Mississippi.  Temperature today will be 79ºF (63º C)  May rain again tonight too.

 

 

what a week, the weather has been just wonderful -----

The temperature is staying in the high 60's to low 70's.  I Love SPRING -----

 

 

Beautiful day today --- Spring has Sprung

 

 Yep, it was a beautiful day, the birds are busy building their nests, the flowers are blooming, in some areas the dogwoods are in bloom and our tulip magnolia is starting to bloom too.  Here is a picture from our front yard today showing the daffy dills in bloom.  It was a little cooler here today, only 60ºF (16º C ). But it will be warming back up into the 70's by Monday.

Oh yes, I plowed the garden on thursday and then rotary tilled it and Mary made the first spring plantings today.

Yep, another great day ----

Beautiful day here today, temperature reached 77ºF (25º C).  It is still 61ºF tonight at 11PM.

 

 

What a day -------

It was 70ºF (21ºC) here today and tomorrow it is supposed to be 74ºF  (23ºC). I think SPRING has SPRUNG. ----- 

 

Spring is in the air down here -------

 

 I havwe missed a few days, but didn't think anyone was watching, Guess I was wrong as I have now had 2 emails about the Blog not being up to date.  The weather down here is just beautiful, The temperatures are running mid 60's to low 70's with lots of sunshine.  Tomorrow I will plow our garden for the first planting. 

Nothing much going on --------------------

 

 Nothing much going on here right now, but cousin Debbie in Barrie sent several pictures, here are a couple of them. Sure does look cold.

 

Hate to brag, but I must ----

 

Spring must be getting very close, we toped out today at 71ºF (22ºC) yep, a mighty fine day.  Eat your heart out Al. heh, heh

Yep, I think that Al Harse did us in.

I know that AL Harse sent this white stuff down to us and we don't need it and don't want it. Don't send any more of this dadblasted stuff down this-a-way, we are ready for SPRING

 

Al, you come down here and get this old cold white stuff, I don't want any.

 

Yep, a couple more from cousin Debbie

After what cousin Albert Harse told me about sending it down this way, I am not going to say a word. Heh, heh

 

 

Here are a couple more snow pictures from cousin Debbie up in Barrie, Ont.

More snow in Barrie -----

More pictures from cousin Debbie, yep, they had more snow

 

 

cold ----- yep -------

 

Yep, well it got cold here last night, went down to 30ºF (-1º C) and it is only in the high 40's today.  But then I got these pictures from cousin Debbie (Bingelman) Jewel over in Barrie Ontario and I will not say another word of complaint against our weather.  It made me cold just looking at these pictures.

Hello all -- mighty rainy day today -------

 

We had a little over an inch of rain since 6AM this morning, but the temperature stayed up there close to 60ºF, 16ºC.

Hope yall had a great day.

60ºF here today -----------------------

 

Yep,  60ºF, 16ºC.  Very nice day.

 

Pretty nice day today -------

 

Nice day today, lots of sunshine with a temperature of 56ºF.

 

It has been another mild week down here,

 

It has been another mild week down here,  temperatures in the mid to high 50's.  Tomorrow it is supposed to be in the 60's but rain again tomorrow night and Sunday.  Here are a couple of pictures from cousin Debbie (Bingelman) Jewell from Barie, ONT. She said thay were taken today. I reckon she is not having any of this nice warm weather we are getting.

 

 

Congratulations on your new government ----

 

Congratulations on your new government, maybe now they can reverse the gay marriage junk that the other one passed last year.  They reported that this is the warmest winter for our area since 1885.  It has been a very nice winter, it has been more like a prolonged fall.  It was colder in November than it has been in December or January, hope it keep staying warm like this.

Today was a washout -----

 It rained all day today, the folks on the news say we got over 2 inches.  After ending up last year about 13 inches short on rainfall, I don't expect to hear to much complaining.

 

Yep, and one from cousin Fred

Here is one from cousin Fred Faber up in Branchton, Ont. and one I took today in our yard. The snow sure looks pretty, but it also looks COLD. I still like the warm weather and looking at the pretty pictures is enough for me.

all I can say is yep, 64ºF here today.

Lots of snow here in
Canada. Sorry that our American cousins are missing one of God's greatest contributions.

great sunny day here today. -----------

 

Beautiful day here today, temperature was 66ºF.  The only thing keeping it from being perfect, it was a little windy, course if I had had a kite, it would have been perfect.

Fw: Winter pictures

Here are a couple of pictures that cousin Al Harse sent. One is listed as before and the other as after. I reckon the one with the rainbow was before winter since the leaves are still on the trees, and the other was taken today. By the way AL, the temperature here today was 56ºF, isn't that great? ha ha

well, well, well

 

Yep, today started out at 59ºF.  Then it started raining and before it was all over it was sleeting and even had a few snowflakes mixed in.  Since the temperature is still above freezing, 33ºF nothing stayed with us except the rain.  Tomorrow it is supposed to warm back up again.

 

Hello all, Sunday is not all that they said it would be.

 

 

Well, here it is Sunday, it is a very cloudy day and cold. The high here at our place has only made it up to 44ºF.  The TV weather folks really messed up this time, they were saying that it would be sunny with a high around 57ºF.  I don't expect them to be perfect, but they should be able to get it a little closer than that.  Oh well, we had a good sermon in church so the day was not a total loss.

An alright day ---------------------

 

Well, today was not all they said it would be, but it was OK.  The temperature only got up to about 55ºF and it was pretty windy.  Tonight it is thunderstorms and a little rain.  They say tomorrow will be cooler but then the temperatures are going up again and it will be in the 60's on Sunday and Monday.

 

Just another nice day

 

 Yep, today was pretty nice, only 57ºF and a little breezy, but overall a nice day.  Tomorrow is supposed to be even better.

 

Great weather -----

 

 Yep, sure is great weather.  71ºF here today and at 11:45 PM it is still 64ºF.  I love this weather. 

well, it is warm and cool -----

Yep, on Thursday, the Temperature was about 57ºF, on Friday the temperature was 38ºF and Friday night we had a freeze.  Saturday our temperature was 58ºF, tonight it is 46ºF and tomorrow they say it will be 69ºF.  How is that for a temperature rollercoaster?

 

 

Last day of 60's

 

Yep, the weatherman says that today is the last day of 60+ temps for a few days.  Tomorrow it is only to be 52ºF and Friday only 48ºF and Friday night we might have a freeze.  Guess I can't complain we have been having great weather.

 

 

 

The temperature today was only 62ºF, and it is supposed to be down in the 50's by Thursday. They say we might even have freezing temperature on Thursday night, down to 39ºF. We will see, I would just as soon it stay warm. Good Night all and don't forget to say a prayer for those poor miners trapped in the mine in West Virginia..

Took these today

I took these pictures this afternoon, the date and time stamp are on them. As you can see, both are under a roof, so this is air temperature.

This picture came from cousin Fred Faber in Branchton, they had about 4 inches of snow last night.  The New Years day temperature down here was 66ºF.  I smoked a batch of ribs on my smoker, they sure are good.
