Good morning, all. Supposed to be 80 degrees here today with storms this evening. We could use the moisture. Will be picking up a new sabre saw today for working on the tank wagon. The other one is 20 plus years old and not working correctly. Hardly used it and found out technology passed me by. New ones take a different blade style.

Good morning gang!

Might reach mid 60's today for the first time this year. I am hoping we can work with the shop doors open today, that would be nice.

Have a good day everybody!

Looks stormy Kevin. Snow is a possibility according the talking heads on the weather channel and it was 34 out this morning. We had a big grass fire whipped by 60 mph winds. Hazards of a dry winter and careless humans in the grasslands. Thankfully the winds abated and the firemen did the rest. Hopefully the snow shovel stays in the garage. Have a good day put there.

Hello, yesterday was the first day above 70degrees. So, I went Mountain biking on a really challenging course,few places it looked like 20ft drop offs. at the Fort Lincoln State park in Mandan ND. Today, not much to do at the rentals. So, a really long lunch break and then quitting early. ha p.s. Loyd I hope everything turns out ok with your mother.

THE MAGIC BANK ACCOUNT
THE AUTHOR IS NOT KNOWN. IT WAS FOUND IN THE BILLFOLD OF COACH PAUL BEAR BRYANT, ALABAMA, AFTER HE DIED IN 1982
The Magic Bank Account
Imagine that you had won the following *PRIZE* in a contest: Each morning your bank would deposit $86,400 in your private account for your use. However, this prize has rules:

The set of rules:

1. Everything that you didn't spend during each day would be taken away from you.

2. You may not simply transfer money into some other account.

3. You may only spend it.

4. Each morning upon awakening, the bank opens your account with another $86,400 for that day.

5. The bank can end the game without warning; at any time it can say, “Game Over!".
It can close the account and you will not receive a new one.
What would you personally do?

You would buy anything and everything you wanted right? Not only for yourself, but for all the people you love and care for. Even for people you don't know, because you couldn't possibly spend it all on yourself, right?

You would try to spend every penny, and use it all, because you knew it would be replenished in the morning, right?

ACTUALLY, This GAME is REAL ...

Shocked ??? YES!

Each of us is already a winner of this *PRIZE*. We just can't seem to see it.

The PRIZE is *TIME*

1. Each morning we awaken to receive 86,400 seconds
as a gift of life.

2. And when we go to sleep at night, any remaining time is Not credited to us.

3. What we haven't used up that day is forever lost.

4. Yesterday is forever gone.

5. Each morning the account is refilled, but the bank can dissolve your account at any time WITHOUT WARNING...

SO, what will YOU do with your 86,400 seconds?

Those seconds are worth so much more than the same amount in dollars. Think about it and remember to enjoy every second of your life, because time races by so much quicker than you think.

So take care of yourself, be happy, love deeply and enjoy life!

Here's wishing you a wonderful and beautiful day. Start “spending”....

"DON’T COMPLAIN ABOUT GROWING OLD…!"

SOME PEOPLE DON'T GET THE PRIVILEGE!

Umm, Kevin...

Next time you or your neighbor see those kind of clouds--head for the basement! Those are mammatus clouds, harbingers of tornados and other severe weather.
