Pressure cracks are the worst when you're out on the ice. It sounds like Godzilla is breaking thru the ice next to ya.

Ha! There was an old timer that squeaked like a dry bearing that use to live down the way. Smart guy though! He hooked up 2 push mowers behind his garden tractor mower. Had a bar mounted in the front with a chain hanging on each end so he knew his cutting radius and how close to mow to obstacles!Back in early 60's my father took three of those reel mowers and hooked then all together and I cut 3/4 acre of grass with that rig pulled behind a Rototiller.
They say thats a good thing!........Pressure cracks are the worst when you're out on the ice. It sounds like Godzilla is breaking thru the ice next to ya.

Hunker down!! Good too see you here Jake. We have insane winds right now through tomorrow night. Raining and turning to snow later. We are only supposed to get an inch or two max. Temp is going to be dangerously low though.Calling for 8in snow and below zero temps here starting Sunday night then another round of snow starting Thursday. Will definitely keep us locked down up in these hills.
Cooking spray on the weather strip of your car doors and the bottom of the garage door .going to be dangerously low though.
Broke through the ice duck hunting many years ago. When the ice broke, my last hope was the water wasn't deeper than my hip boots. Yeah no such luck. I went in to my lower chest level.Ever been through the ice? Its life changing lol! Fell through in a "crick" when I was a kid! ...
That was when I would have been 11 so i only remembering having fun playing in that big snowIn the winter of 1969
Chicken and dumplings would be awesome on a day like today! Didn't bother to check temps... I know it's cold and windchill below zero. Wife had to come home from work early, sick and coming out both ends. Took the tractor to highway to make sure roads were passable for her car. Then took tractor to do chores...I worked out in it so long that it doesn't bother me to much . That dang wind gets pretty stiff in shorts and a T shirt though .
Windchill down around 1 here , and the coldest day coming Sunday . Got some chicken parts in the instant pot for chicken and dumplings later .
Picked some fresh thyme and rosemary and through it in there . Smells darn good in here .
Snow missed us , as I figured it would , because they said it we were getting snow .Now it's just a ground blizzard so not as bad when it was snowing.
I'd sure love having a fireplace in this kind of weather!Living in frigid Minnesota. Fingers get numb quickly. Single digits before windchill and high winds. Fortunately got the fireplace crackling!!!
Now I just need a companion dog.I'd sure love having a fireplace in this kind of weather!

Winter storm Uri, Feb 2021, spooked millions of Texans. We were without power for 72 hours straight. Couldn't cook even if we had food. No food in area grocery stores. Very little in area restaurants. Thousands of dollars damage to my pool equipment.Forecast is for 26-degree low tonight, 24-degree low Sunday night, 17-degree low Monday night and 14-degree low Tuesday night.
I just got back from HEB - had to pick up a couple of fresh sandwich rolls so I can make a friend a meatball sandwich today.
You would think it was the end of the fricken world how many people were in that store - the checkout lines stretched back half-way up the store isles!!!
What a bunch of cry-babbies I swear. The Comanche lived outside in TENTS in weather like this fer chrissakes...
