    Be careful of migrating birds!

    Funny you mention that. Spring migration is in full swing.

    The past 3 wks, my backyard has been covered up with migrating birds! About 200 at a time will land and then take off!

    Spring started 3 weeks ago in my yard. All the flowering trees and bushes budded out. Then winter came back, so no flowers this time around. Actually the Forsythia bush was OK, it still flowered. But the flowering trees couldn't handle the frost. All I could do was sit in the kitchen and vape while I watched the devastation.

    I almost planted a bunch of seeds last week but luckily I had an attack of the lazy.

    Was your ground temp at 50+? It got warm here for a couple weeks it was in the 70's but it has been back to winter, supposed to be 60's for a few days then back to winter again i dont think the ground temp here has gotten above 50 degrees

    I was like, "hey, that sounds like Indiana."

    Then I remembered you're from here too. Lol.

    I'm actually thrilled that I have a pile of PT coils to rebuild. How long will this enthusiasm last?

    I could send you several hundred to rebuild for me. That should take care of the enthusiasm. I am going to do a couple tonight.

    Yeah, us Hoosiers thought we had it good at the end of February. We should have known Mother Nature would have one of her mood swings. I woke up to 5" of lake effect snow this morning. Still, better than the snow some areas out East got, so I can't complain.
    Sorry to those of you who are still digging out for bragging about my measly 5 inches.

    I started making PT coils a couple of months ago. I've got 240 in the can now. Calculated I'll use around 40 a year so I'm closing in on my goal of having a 10 year stash. Making the coils is the most tedious part of rebuilding heads to me and I always make PT coils the same. Plus I'm getting arthritis in my hands so I wanted to get it out of the way.

    You're not bragging, it would be bragging if I mentioned my local weather (which is why I rarely do)[emoji4]
