My plan is - provided I am not working - to go out to the field on Saturday and take advantage of the nice weather.

Beaufort 4 = moderate Breeze
at BF 5 you need coins in your sporran

airspeed in knots
ship speed in knots
this metric stuff gets me
gas is $6.60 a gallon
my truck does 22 miles per gallon
why does it do less on this metric fuel
Do they use metric chemistry at the refinery now?

Well as the old saying goes' a farmers work is never done.. Unfortunately Saturday is a bust now for me as a few things have gone wrong this week and that has been a major setback... Looks like Sunday could be the better day as well.
