January has been A for me this year too, and I will say the first 10-12 went faster than usual.
 
Happy Weds all! Been a busy day for me and tomorrow will be the same. Taking my sprint car down to Stuart Va to see if it has at least 20 hp untapped inside the motor somewhere. I need to get walking for my brown bear hunt this spring but the snow and ice put a stop on that. Boys already putting up Halloween lights and their random spiders.
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 301
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 276
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 215


Happy Late January! Today folks we move along and see that we have 301 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 276 days left until November and 215 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Winter Wonderland with our next milestone set to arrive tomorrow with the 300-Day Marker till Thanksgiving. It will be a big one for sure as it will be the final time this thread ever has a “3” in it. It’s Thursday folks so time for our Weekly Countdown till Thanksgiving. It stands at 43 weeks. Indeed. Pretty sweet isn’t it and such a big milestone set to arrive tomorrow as we end our 3’s count portion of this thread. I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the cold or at least tolerating it at this point. And I wish you well as we move along to a new day here this Thursday. I hope everyone is having a good week so far. It’s been another very busy one here. Very cold also. Snowy. Icy. You get the picture. We are in the dead of winter. That’s ok though because being in winter means you have the entire spring, summer, autumn and holiday season in front of us and those seasons I love each one of them. The best to you my friends, this Thursday. Enjoy your day. Be safe. Have fun. Make the most of your day. Have a great Late January!​
 
Just one more day of having a 300 level count in this thread!!!

We are in the dead of winter now, but Spring is just 50 days away!

Regardless of what the rat predicts on Monday, we are inching closer to mild/fair weather and that official start date to Spring. I can't speak for everyone obviously but my extended forecast here shows us in pretty mild weather starting next week and going forward. In fact it predicts that we have a few days that reach 50 by the middle of February. That would be great!

Have a great day!

DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 300
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 275
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 214


Happy Next To Last Day Of January! Today folks we move along and see that we have 300 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 275 days left until November and 214 days to go until The Bers. We have reached the big milestone of the 300 Day Marker till Thanksgiving. No more 3’s counts after today friends. Unreal. Our next milestone will be on Sunday (so soon) when we reach the Arrival of February. It’s Friday folks so time for our Fun Fact Friday below!

The Missing Cutlery
Wherever the first Thanksgiving took place, it did so without forks. The utensil wasn't commonly used until about the time of the American Revolution in North America, although it's supposed both knives and spoons found a place on the Pilgrims' tables. Still, can you imagine trying to scarf down a turkey with no fork?!


The fork does seem more complex to invent than a spoon or knife so that kind of makes sense. But how can I eat my turkey with a spoon? Slurp it up like turkey soup? Turkey friends enjoy your Friday. Have a great Next To Last Day Of January!​
 
Forks? Who needs forks?

It’s not as difficult as you might think. I’m guilty of picking at the turkey here and there and tearing off chunks of meat with my hands throughout the day. Sometimes I need a little Thanksgiving snack.

TGIF!

Tomorrow morning when we wake up folks, NO MORE 300's in this thread. Absolutely incredible.

Maybe it is just because of some of the "bad" turns that the holidays took last year (My BIL being in the hospital during Thanksgiving), and then Christmas just being almost entirely "nerfed", but I am extremely motivated for The Big 3 this year. That motivation pretty much plowed me through January and I have no doubt that it's going to take me to the finish line.

Have a great Friday Evening!
 
Happy sub zero Friday!! So I am tired of the weather. This cold is getting out of hand. I made a trip today into the root cellar and got a bunch of apples from October. For about 10 mins I was transported back in time. Those Cortlands taste just like tbey come from the tree.
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 299
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 274
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 213


Happy January Finale! Today folks we move along and see that we have 299 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 274 days left until November and 213 days to go until The Bers. How’s that 2 look next to Thanksgiving? Our next milestone will arrive tomorrow on Sunday with the Arrival of February. It’s Saturday folks so time for the first half of our Quiet Weekend Period. It’s a big one, friends, and I hope you are enjoying it as we move along into a new weekend with lots of fun stuff to enjoy, I hope for all of you. Of course, I’ve got to get that food shopping and laundry done. Such is life, isn’t it? But could it be a lot worse? I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. It’s another very cold weekend here but we’re used to it now. I hear February will be below normal as well. But we’ll see. Anything is possible. You never know in the world of weather how things will turn out. I hope everyone has a great time this weekend. Winter is doing it’s Winter thing. Let it. At least it’s doing it during winter and not spring, summer or autumn. Save those seasons for their own types of weather. Turkey friends I wish you well this Saturday. I hope you have a great one. Enjoy your Saturday today and make the most of the weather. Have a great January Finale!​
 
Happy Saturday! No more 300's in this thread. That's huge.

And being on the last day of January? Double Huge. I know it's WAY too soon to be dreaming of Spring, but we sure can think about it some since the start of Spring lies just 48 days from today. I'm really hoping that February brings us milder weather. It has been brutal here the last two weeks of January.

The dawn of a new month awaits us! Have a great Saturday!
