Oh yes...someone here at work showed me pictures a while ago...wow, they are lucky. I was told that a mother and child were IN that corner room watching TV when it hit. That's easily a 40,000 pound piece of equipment on that bed. Close ups of the other side of the house show the cracks all the way through the middle of the structure. If that place would have been constructed of wood, oh boy. Then there was that fire last year that took out that other house/building just to the west on the same side of the street. I think I would be selling my roadside property 😬

There's a few opinions regarding zebras...when too call one that or what it possibly takes too be one...I'm sure that someone with a deeper knowledge and possible explanation will pop in...back to work for me 😊

No, I didn't hear! All I know about was that 3 car collision on 44 by the Caledonia airport. Blocked off for hours...gotta go😊

Rainbo's...

Machine made error IMO

My last day of work for the week is Thursday, done at 330pm that day. I suspect it might be a hairy drive home. That 17 miles from Caledonia could feel like 100. I only remember work being canceled a handful of times in the last 16 years. We'll see!

My garage, same way. It's detached and not heated, but those few extra degrees do make a world of difference. Plus it's nice not having to clean the car off 😊

I just read that it could be the coldest Christmas in 40 years for some midwest areas! My phone weather bug is saying this for highs Tuesday through Saturday...12,12,2,0,2....then -5 to -10 at night. Factor in the wind chill they are talking about later this week and it's frostbite in minutes. I know I'm going to be picking up everything we need between now and Thursday because it's not going to be nice out there!

I'm thinking that this is going to be the first actual white Christmas in quite some time in my neck of the woods. I mean actually having good snow coverage on the ground. We still have at least 4 inches or more sitting on the ground from that last system not to many days ago. Now they just issued a Winter Storm Watch for my area that begins Wednesday and goes through Friday. They are calling it a significant event, currently forecasting 4-6 more inches of snow. Plus throw in some windy conditions of up to 55 mph, along with subzero temperatures moving in with it. Not only is Christmas going to be white, but cold as you know what. We have been spoiled in that aspect also in recent years with crazy warm temperatures in December. Not this time. Merry Christmas indeed 🥶

Foreign...that's an interesting observation also, Ric. I'm really starting to like this marble 😊

Better images and Art might be on to something...I sure was thinking Master after I distanced myself from that Vitro thought. I just might be hopping on that Akro 🚂

Oh yeah Vitro all the way

Ron Shepherd told me one day that I could study 7 days a week, so many hours a day, and still many years later be fortunate enough to identify maybe 60%-70% of what you see. Or something along those lines anyway. Keep at it! We are all learning every day. Whether we are new to the game or 30 year veterans! 👍

When I moved to Minnesota from Florida, that's where I lived from 93' until 01', that's when I bought my home in Mabel. Yes, love Spring Grove...I'm always dropping through there!

Indeed! Definitely an oddball keeper 👍

That's what kinda grabbed me too, brother! Then I started seeing Vitro veins. We'll see, but I think I would go Master first myself after looking again a couple times...

Yep, the cutlines...

I almost said Master...Maybe a Vitro? A few more views could tell more. More opinions for sure 👍

Cool...I'm at work now myself 😊

Right there with Ric...those 2 do have what appears to be Vitro characteristics but a few more looks would seal the deal 😊

That's what I use with most things I dig up 👍

Nice Rainbos indeed...I do like the one that Ric pointed out..I've only got 1 👍😊

Nice one Ric...👍

You betcha ×3

Marble King and I believe a Jabo...
