It's 44 here this morning. Costa Rica is looking pretty good right now.

As some know Bonnie & I are avid bird feeders, I installed a drip system to our bird bath about 20 years ago. It keeps a constant drip all year long to provide water for the various critters that roam our yard, this is the very first time since I installed that it has frozen. Just checked again it is still 4 degrees!!!

Not heading there until mid Feb, but sure am looking forward to it!

It warmed up to 66 today.

Speaking of bird feeders, my ex wife had me build an arm that stuck out from an oak tree, that she could feed the wild birds. She was quite upset, when she found out it was a cat feeder too. :(

A 50/50 mix of EG & water should do the trick :biggrin.:

I think it is done until we get a thaw, it is only about 6" under the ground. The line is the same as Bennet trim hose and runs about 40 feet from the house to the old antique hand pump where I routed it up and out the spigot.
