    Yes. No complaints. Doc changed the medicine and suspended several State Level policies on me personally. At the end of the day there is only one word that truly matters on a new joint.

    Walk. (If you had to run for the bus, you are not living right)

    Rains are continuing, local weather observations swear up and down it's snowing, thunder sleet and freezing ran etc. I don't have access to the air sounding but anything is possible here. Im already monitoring the rivers and roads near them starting at the Black, White, Arkansas and the Little Red among others. Newport surrounded by flood, J'Boro is beginning a siege and Batesville was apparently closed a while, probably downtown where the river runs.

    all of that crap is moving down this way. We did not get enough inches today to get excited yet. Maybe tomorrow.

    I am monitoring the temperature gauge like a porcupine is trying to get clear of a pen quill ink writing school.

    I 40 and 30 had some incidents and screw ups as expected today into tonight. There is no point in trying to stay on top of them because it's hours to clear them away over the smallest stuff. I'll check in on US 67 Jacksonville, there probably has been enough water to be a problem between the walls.

    No #### — there will be some Franklin’s involved that my great Uncle Sam won’t need to know about and critters have to eat even when it snows— but still...

    Good deal big guy. Hang in there. Always look forward to your detailed weather posts. Especially during spring tornado season.

    Building your own place —Been there and done that —- I do feel your pain — It’s worth it though.
    PS — unless you’re framing it you’re self, cleanup before the rock goes on — framers are nutritious pigs.
