It is 9:21 pm at my house. We had a pretty good winter storm wreak havoc around here. Some folks are just now getting back to their homes. Lots of lost food due to extended power outages. We got a generator hooked up last summer and I am really happy it was. I have not been into my regular office for two weeks now. There is a lot of snow. Not enough plow operators. Rock slides, tree failures. No power. What A mess. We are supposed to be getting another round of snow now but it seems to fluctuate between rain and snow. I guess morning light will tell the result.
I Am not here very often since PA lost their security on the site and I can no longer access it from work. Darn government restrictions. I had to fill out a special form in the first place as PA was listed as a hunting site. I had to argue for the primitive skills side of things just to get access at work.
In my time here, I have hade some awesome point trades and Christmas Exchanges. I have learned some valuable knowledge from the Institute of you all. I have prayed for many of you and your families and I know that you all have prayed for mine from time to time. I have lost new PA friends and made new ones. I have watched our population ebb and flow. I guess that is how life is. I do appreciate you all!
I see some of you on Facebook. It is easier for me to access. Nice to see some of you there.
Keep up all of your excellent work! Keep bringing cool stories. Google Yosemite Webcams if you want a look around my office. If you make it out west, Stop by and say hello or sit and crack some rock!
Let me know what I can do for you.
Take care of yourselves and each other.
I will be here from time to time.
