Not seeing to much activity on the forum lately. Obviously everyone is in tune with the current state of affairs in the country with this virus. Our economy is strong and we are stronger. Don’t panic. Be smart and vigilant and we’ll outlast it. Take care of yourselves and one another, provide support, and fight back against this one day at a time. There might be a few bumps in the road but soon these days will be behind us and in our rear view mirrors. Safe travels and may god bless us, our families and each other. We will prevail.

Well said, don't panic for this too shall pass. I think the forums a little slow as camping season has not started for many. I'm fortun enought to live where is very doable year round, which I do, currently on the road since 1/15.

Yes, very well said csp, I agree Ed, the season has yet to really get going. Woke up this AM to 2"-3" of snow, then the sun came out and most is gone, so winter is still around.

Only 79 right now, but rain predicted tomorrow. I think I would prefer the cold it does not get everything dirty like rain, I just washed the truck & 5W last week.

Only 79...We hit a high today of 45 or so which made the last night's snow go away....In preparation for tonight's snow. Hopefully the virus panic subsides by the time the wife retires in April so we can go somewhere warm.
I agree, just plain cold is better than rain (or snow) my truck is back to being dirt color due to the snow.

We're set for more rain here in PHX in the next couple days (YAY!) and "significant" snow > 6k' (again, YAY!). Man, I sure like not farming on days like this. No hay down, no cotton to turn black, to corn or wheat to blow over... :-)

50 to 55 during the day low's 30es to high 20es at night ...
As I have seen over the past few years here on this form it slows down a bit during the winter an picks up in the summer ... Also right after the show season when new owners get their units they ordered you will see an increase as new owners ask questions about different things related to their new rigs

Farming here =was= year-round work. From tillage, planting, cultivating, fertilizing, irrigating, irrigating, irrigating, irrigating... :-) The =only= things we didn't do for ourselves was haying or field spraying. Custom hay guy who was very good and an excellent aerial applicator. We got out before the big boom on ground spray rigs for crops. We did have rigs for spraying pre-plant, though. Lyle |

Yes, again, Very well said CSP.
I was just talking to my oldest son on the phone, he's 39. He's scared, his wife is out of work due to being a school teacher. He's worried he might get layed off too, he's a construction estimator. A lot of the construction sites are closing down around So. Cal. That's the sad part is seeing them (3 boys and 2 girls) worry like this. I know we will all make it through this. It's just a sign of the times I hate to see.
I want better than this for my kids and grand kids. Our country didn't cause this, another one did. It's maddening to deal with it, frustrating for sure.
Stay safe and healthy.
