Hello Everyone. My name is Lynn Davidson and I'm Jim's daughter. I'm sorry to report that my father passed away suddenly last Sunday of a heart attack. He was not ill nor in pain and went very quickly. I'll be keeping his account open while we sort through all the glass in this house in case advice is needed.
Thank you all for the friendship you gave my dad.

Good Morning. The big dig out of the East Coast is bout over,all except for the shouting and investigations that will be done to justify why the highways dept was unable to handle a little 30 inch snowstorm without drifting or power loss. Answer ..inadequate equipment to handle major storm and untrained, untried personnel. I thought that the city of Baltimore who could not clear the streets for a week, were busy citing the residents for not clearing the sidewalks. instituted a cruel joke. That is what 75 years of single party rule can do for you.
Everyone stay safe and dry. Soon we will see Spring and this mess will be a dim memory.

Good morning everyone. Waking up poverty stricken as before since i didn't win the Power ball Lottery.
Sorry about everyone experiencing poor weather. I am happy that I live in a temperate zone. Mostly it is humidity which we can moderate with air conditioning. I don't want to jinx it, but we have had the least cold weather this year. In fact, we turned the air conditioning on Christmas day when it got too hot and humid in the house with the large family crowd. Don't want any of that stuff that Carl has had to sand and shovel Brrrr.

You can get rid if The Win 10 notification box by deleting it in he action and notifications section.but it will reappear the next time you boot. Sorry to say that if you are serious the registry must be edited to dump it.. not a recommenced thing to do for the average user, so you just get used to it and don't mistakenly click it. Windows 10 is like a good ice storm. it has the same affect for computer repair guys.and body and fender guy... lots of business I have a ton of time invested and i still don't have my DVD working despite dumping and reinstalling the whole mess. you cannot imagine how much data that I put in peril I really think that I would have been better off buying a new machine (laptop) May have been cheaper and I still would have my time..JimD

We traveled through Vermont, new Hampshire, and Maine, and into Canada finally ending in the Laurentian mountains. then spent a week in Boston. The weather was gorgeous and the trees were spectacular A month would probably do lot to improve that. Our tree color is retarded by a lot of water and temperate weather.

For those interested; I downloaded Widows 10 on one of my computers and installed it on my Laptop which I use mostly for internet stuff. If you feel comfortable in messing around with the settings it is for you. If you think you will get into trouble messing round your settings stay away from it. First it installs Windows version of a new browser and you have to import bookmarks and settings .,or you have to get rid of their defaults. even to the point of having to jump through hoops to get rid of Bing which is jammed in to replace Google. Sooo... Windows 10 looks like a mess. Way to go Microsoft. Unless you ae lonely and desperate to use a lot of free time it is not for most people. I don't think that I will give it to my wife. I don't have that much time.

Usually the tree dweller will try to get to the highest spot and the bush dweller will be content to live on lower levels. We have one each so there is not much competition for perches. Now the fun begins when they are competing for the same spot.

Lainey: Sorry about your moisture situation. I hope you were out of the fire zone. Watching it on the news was scary enough for me.

I just updated the drivers on my printer. Next, I will rearrange my sock drawer. I am thinking of having the air changed in my car tires from summer air to winter air. JimD

Carl: I really hate for you to miss this. I am trying to bury myself in some activity that keeps me inside and dry. If i could, I would send all of it northward, so that you would not suffer the loss.

Carl : Simple reason why those wiper arms are not available.. Only zealots replace them. most vehicles that you see on the road have a smeared window where there is no fluid ,except those that push the wrong button and spray all over my car. JimD

Carl; You are a victim of a declining market. Obviously, Wal-Mart and Target don't have you in their sights. In our case with a growing populace and large market, we have to resort to on line sellers like Amazon. I held out for a long time,but I must admit that when I am looking for the unusual item or the best price I am on there..
A Happy, Healthy, New Year to everyone

We don't have any bad weather here, but it still took 45 minutes to drive across town..which is usually a three minute trip. Where is everyone going?
Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas.

OK,.. it is 73 degrees this morning, just set a new daily high since 1896. Weird weather..including a prediction for severe thunder storms. We may lose power also,but it will be from the high winds.We may vary 60-70 degrees in the next two days.
Ain't weather fun.. Stay safe and A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone. Mostly preparing for annual family Holiday get together JimD -

Don: nice item. I think if I had such an "important"item, I would consign it to Jeff Evans. Certainly not E-Bungle!

Carl: Received he letter in the mail Thanks.Your reimbursement was more than generous.
I don't know how it happened, but Fenton must have acquired the mould for that stretch candy dish. It appears in their books. I also have a Masonic Item in my collection made sometime in the 30's. I will dig around in my files,check the date and post a picture later.

Katie: you probably made a good decision based on the weather. We have had,or are in the process of having, two storms on the East coast and it has not been pretty with delays and cancellations all over the area. Not a good time to be traveling into our area. JimD
