The weather cooperated and 10 of us got together at Phyllis and Cameron’s house \u2013 White Heron Winery. My birthday was the 4th, but now two more folks are about to have birthdays.
\nSome photos were taken but not by me. Maybe I’ll get sent some and show them next week. I left home at 9:30 and got back at 5:30, just before dark. Although not a lot, the daylight is noticeably longer. <\/p>\n

I had 2 cold mornings – – 16\u00b0F. Two inches of snow Sunday morning. For Monday morning I expect 20\u00b0 with slowly warming during the week. There is a rumor that next Sunday will bring more cold air. There is very cold air in the Arctic Region \u2013 800 miles north of Washington State. Winter is still with us.
\nUnless one is interested in the President’s Corvette the national news is dull.
\nHowever, I did find a report from 2016 when a film was made for the season premiere of CNBC’s “Jay Leno’s Garage”. Retired four-star general Colin Powell also owns a Corvette. There is a fake race. All good fun.<\/p>\n

There is a usatoday story with this title:
\n Jay Leno on Biden’s sick burnout: ‘It was fun’ (usatoday.com)
\nThe TV segment has the following title.
\n(1) Joe Biden Does a Burnout In His Corvette Stingray – Jay Leno\u2019s Garage \u2013 YouTube<\/p>\n

In other news, the price of eggs went up. For folks that eat lots of eggs (not me), that’s important. I got a dozen free from a neighbor and froze them. So the problem seems to be Covid or Bird Flu \u2013 is there a difference?
\nMillions of egg-layers have been disposed of, apparently by “on-site” composting. Enough of that topic.
\nSomeone has suggested a solution to bird flu, also known as Avian Influenza. This method employs sewers and fitters. I’ll pass.

\nWe raised chickens while living in Troy ID and both turkeys and chickens here in Washington. The turkeys were Broad Breasted Bronze.
\n\"\"
\nTurkeys lay large eggs, and they are nicely speckled. When friend Gina was teaching mid-grade students, I sent a few eggs to her in Houston. She still has them 25 years later. In the photo below, the turkey egg is the 2nd from left, top row.

Keeping track on the Naneum Fan<\/p>\n
