First, Erv how big a lathe do you have to turn a beam that big. Wonderful looking job on the beam though. Next, how big of a bird feeder did you build to put on top of it? Please submit the finished job pics when you have time. Good and fun job I am sure Erv!

We shut our water heater off around the 20th of April and it has been good. The ground here is soggy from all the rain we have had which also means a lot of mowing the lawn. I will take the rain before the snow also, wvwn though it would melt but I would love the temperature to even out soon. warm and then cold.

Morning Greg,
Has the water heater been shut off as of yet?
I was not sure when to pull mine but so far so good.
Its either rain or snow, I guess if i had my choice it would be the rain, But not so much of it.
Keep warm.

Nice pics Marilyn, it has been cold here in MN also. I talked to my brother in Bemidji and it was snowing there but no snow stuck as the ground was to warm.

I know he will love it the more he uses it. One recommendation is to remove the bucket for mowing as it will give you an easier turning radius. There are 2 pines to pull out and lower the loader and back away and just as easy to reconnect. Enjoy the new Deere.

The Duluth Rose Garden in Leif Erickson Park is beautiful and a great view of the lift bridge in he distance. I'm not sure of the location but if you google it there is a place high up on the hills of Duluth where you can overlook the whole city and would be a great spot in the evening to take pictures. You can look on (Capture MN. com) to see some of these sights pictures of the area. Enjoy your trip.

Nice shots Linda, looks like the weather has cooperated for you also. I hope we get some sun and less wind soon.

Welcome to MN and yes there are bad areas just like most cities I have lived in. We moved up to the St. Cloud area last year as I retired and bought a hobby farm. My wife and I both grew up in the country setting, she on a farm and me a mile out of town. We had lived in Maplewood and St. Paul for over 30 years. I hope you get settled in and find some of the great areas of the Twin Cities to explore and take some great pictures. Also check out National Camera Stores where I did a lot of my equipment purchasing. Craigslist is another option where I shopped and sold a lot of items. If and when you are ready to buy your 85 mm I do have one I would sell as I bought a 85 f1.4 now. Again welcome and enjoy the months to come. With the rain today it will be a bad day for the MN Zoo but National Camera has bring your sd cards and shoot different cameras and lenses from 9:00 till 4:00 today.

I took a few test shots and found (Direct sunlight A1 M2 to give me the color I liked) and with those settings I didn't have to make any changes in PP.

I like the action in several of the shots, more interesting than the usual nest shots. How did you adjust the white balance?

Good morning and happy Easter to you Marilyn. It is good to see the extended family came for a drink at your place. I still haven't got the deer to come back yet but there was a a flock of 9 turkeys this last week. I hope you have a happy and blessed day. Are you driving your new car to Easter dinner with you son and daughter in law or are they coming to you?

Thank you Bob, I shot with many different f stops just to see what it would do. Some of these pics are with the 150-500 on a D300 and some are from my D90 with a Nikon 80-400 older lens. Thanks for looking and your kind comment and advice.

Went out shooting eagles again this morning with a little less wind blowing. Things turned out better but not perfect (Sharp) as I was hoping for. I still haven't found just the right settings for the great shot.

Thank you Jim, hopefully next time I go it will be calm and earlier in the morning. The earlier in the morning I can control but the wind just made it to hard to stay steady for a good shot.
