Well said, young man. And thank you for saying it so. I agree , except most times I don’t voice my opinion, I just let it go. Lost a very dear relationship over similar disagreement. Years later, the issue is still out there, nothing I have said has changed it. Exercising my right hasn’t changed it. But I (we) have lost a lifetime over it.

Good morning Bart. I keep using you as an example to my son. Fishing is his healthy addiction. He needs to get a job like yours.

Fishing has been apart of my life since I was a toddler. I was able to make a career out of it, but I wish I had started earlier with it as a full time profession. Encourage him, and nurture the passion. Fishing has brought me all kinds of joy and much more money than I ever dreamed of. Its a pure and simple way of life. Doing what you love as an occupation leaves the door open to have another passion of choice....treasure hunting, urban logging....etc. follow your passions folks !! It leads to happiness 😊.

Morning ARC, WD, Bart
Hope all your sails are filled with a light breeze, and all is good.
We are in the middle of a snowstorm at the moment by all reports. Advisories from the weather sites.
Well was expecting an 1" an hour overnight, and through the morning, for totals of 8-10".
Well my little chickadees don't have enough snow to even worry about searching for the seed food as it still visible.
So another weather nothing burger, but I'm sure we'll get a bit before it's over.
Kind of hoping to get snow, as it was a skating rink type world out there these past few days.
Poor Max was slip-sliding-away. He's smart though as he jumps up on the snow-covered area to have his wizzes.
If he stops anywhere else he just started to slide on the sloped topography.

I bought this at a flea market a couple years ago. My first thought was that it was from 1895 because right there on the bottom it says, “November 30 1895. I did a little research on the distillery and found out that because of The Prohibition Act of 1920, the company doors were closed and bottles were broken. So, that helped confirm the date. Then, I researched the diamond with numbers inside. This indicates it was made by the Illinois Glass Company, Alton, Illinois (1873-1929). Then I found this article taken from Bottles and Extras Winter 2005, “The Dating Game” by Bill Lockhart, Bill Lindsey, David Whitten, and Carol Serr.
“Numbers in a Diamond (1911-1929)
The diamond mark with numbers inside was probably first used in connection with whiskey bottles. Illinois glass company was issued and Owens machine license on June 10, 1910 to make whiskey bottles. Actual production of bottles, however, did not begin until the following year (1911). Therefore, 1911 is the first year for the use of the diamond mark with internal numbers. “
Okay. So, that changed my mind about the date. I was still curious. My dad and I went to a center where there is a large display of Hayner Distillery. On the walls are panels stating the history of the company. My eye picked up on this section because of the date, November 30, 1897. I found that a little coincidental.
So, I have a guys email address to see if he can sort it out for me. What do you guys think?

Good morning, Pepperj. It’s all black and gray with tan from the dormant grass and brown from the field. And ice everywhere. Doesn’t sound all that great but it does look kinda neat.

Here's what it's like trying to navigate going to the barn.
2 winters ago we had a propane truck slide inches from the garage corner.
So we installed big rocks to slow the sliding vehicles.
While building the roofing company jack knived his Ford 350 and a 20ft trailer on the slope.
Interesting morning of recovery with winches 4x4 tractor.
