Blue3quarter, with stone you have to worry about a stricture. The cranberry juice sluffs off the bacteria naturally throughout the urinary tract. Been on a cranberry diet for 10 years now. I know, another expert here, but one thing I HAVE learned is Beam actually goes nicely in cranberry juice.

How do you think he GOT the stone? Did you by some share in cranberry processors? You get everybody prescribed to cranberry cocktails! We're slow, but we'll figure you out eventually. Believe me, the plow may end up getting butchered yet since it's already been patched a couple times. Still would like a back blade for weight in the back and summer road gradeing. Gonna call on a beetjuice fill quote too and try to find some tire chains.

Mornin

So busy didn't have time to even turn on the putter yesterday. Had a whole house full. Ravenous bunch they were. Nothing but bones left from the turkey and it was a 16lb bird. Ham faired a little better, I still got leftovers. WOOHOO I can have ham and eggs this AM. Glad they were able to come join us for a wonderful meal.

More on the way today so have to start all over. Good times...

Father in law had stones a few years back. Doc had to use ultra sound to break them up. So big they wouldn't pass. Ouch Ended up black and blue around the kidney area from it. Worked though but still needed Demerol for the pain when they came out. Wasn't an experience I'd be looking forward to thats for sure.

Got one of those inside outside no wires temp sending thingies. Must have been made down in Davey's part of the world though. Dang thing only goes down to -20C. Whats with that? Tells time well though, have to look at the positive part.

Hope everyone can still relax and enjoy yourselves. Eat more than you should. New Years is on it's way resolutions can be made to stop excesses for next year.

Have a goon one...BTW coffee is good this AM.

Hey guys we had a great christmas here in OK the best thing we got was electric WHOO HOO it came on briefly for an hour or so fri night then back off man talk about low thats worse than not having it at all on then off on then off you get the picture. But it came on sat morning and has been on ever since. We got to have christmas at home instead of in a travel trailer. Hanna had a great time theres nothing like watching a three year old enjoy christmas. We are very blessed hope you all are doing well.

Happy holidays from Ohio. Haven't been able to get on the boards much to be social but just found this little internet cafe'/game room up the road and popped in to say a quick hello. I saw the janitors invite for me to drive up and see him so I guess I should recipricate and offer to let him drive down and see me.

Mark, thanks for the help. I cleared the code and no problems since. I guess it was the cold start that caused it.

I bought one of the Oregon Scientific sets this fall on sale. Does temp, humidity, clock, barometer sucks, just a little arrow showing raise/fall. What surprised me so far is it stated -20F as outside bottom limit, but it read -40.9 a few days ago. I put in new lithium batts in mid Nov.

Love to see the Ice house, and your more than welcome to bring it up. I know a couple nice spots.

Dang, DANG, and DANG! I just threw out 2 sets of chains that went to the JD60. Figured that thing can barely move itself, nevermind adding a traction enhancing device! If I'da known, you coulda had them.

Well JEEZ, don't strain yerself! Where-abouts in Ohio? I figured it might be a bit far, diesel fuel wise, for the International, and the only other thing I have at the moment is the Crappyvan, which may or may not make it!

Sorry Heidi, but I didn't get any pics of that hinge pin repair. wasn't much to see until I got the old one removed, which I had to entirely cut out with the torch, then once I'd done that the whole thing started twisting around because the arms were slightly bent. I figured I'd better just get on with it before it settled any more than it already had. It's all fixed tho... sorta. Not perfect but I guess it'll hafta do.

Evenin' coffee is ready and it's my suppertime!
