Good Morning. sorry, I mean Afternoon. 1225, sunny, 83F with 42% humidity. Forecast high of 82F with 20% chance or of rain today, and a low of 59F tonight. {Marianna weather, Blountstown and Bristol stations taking the day off} All I got of the promised rain was a few sprinkles about midnight. By the time I got off work at 0330, it was already starting to clear. I may ran some sprinklers today. I'm Jonesing for sprouts in my garden. Got to get those seeds wet.

This is Margie's first day off in three weeks. Early voting is good for the folks, but it stretches her small staff mighty thin. Tuesday is the actual election day, then she can catch her breath until the primaries in August.

The plan is for shrimp, spinach and pasta, plus a spinach fruit salad for a late lunch, then an early night at the camp. With some gardening mixed in there somewhere. The grass in the backyard needs cutting, but Mocha is a dog. She expects to deal with some hardships in life. She will have to deal with this one for another week or so.

You guys have a good one,

Larro

Edit: today we will also find out where in the NIT the Noles will be playing. Four years of missing the Big Dance is tough on the fans, but I can't even imagine what the Seniors on the team are going through.

64ーF and 3.16 inches rain last 24 hours. Looks like another day of the same.

My diesel generator has developed a very unpleasant sound and quit. Need to get a diesel guy to check it out. My gas Ridgid now taking up the slack from lack of sun.
Safe travels to those on the roads.

Be safe
Have a great day

As in your new diesel generator? Oh dear, sorry

had a nice Sunday morning at my church/Quaker Meeting, where I have been going since I was 5.
then lunch with my 90 year old MIL who I always visit and always call. My late wife was her caregiver and her brother is not taking up the slack for sure. She was in the hospital for three days last month and no one called me. I think I got my point across today to please call. At least I can call her in the hospital and be cheery. Everyone needs that. But she looked pretty good and made me a nice lunch; nice quality time together. Isn't going to be that much more of it, and we both know it. She was an RN like her daughter and she understands the score. Actually making 90 today and remaining fully independent living in one's home is pretty good. Though after the last hospital stay, the handwriting on the wall started to flash...

Starting to drizzle here, expect some rain coming in. Headed over the Route 95 bridge to NJ/Princeton to have dinner with my BIL while my sister is in California. While I will dodge the Priii all driving in the wrong lane. They must not have keep right except to pass in China...lot of Asian folk attending and living around Princeton. The IQ around there does not extend to driving skills.

Saw a lot of family and friends today, all good.

Still raining here, watching a movie, "Killers", a Ashton Kutcher movie. A comedy I guess. My wife likes it, so I guess it's ok?

Eric, just ate my first crumpet with breakfast today. Yummy.

Crumpets for breakfast, with plenty of butter oozing through and threatening to dribble down your chin - sheer decadence.

In the county where I come from (Yorkshire), we always called them pikelets. Double decadence is a pikelet with a poached egg on top. :licking:

Good morning. Another gorgeous dry day ahead.

The power company sent us a letter saying electricity is going off for most of today. I don't mind at all, there is plenty to do without electricity, however, my wife said it's a good time for us to go shopping together ...:(

49 going to 63...been raining and will rain more later.

Nice time dogsitting yesterday with my son's boxer puppy...was very interested in my tractor as I drove down to do some more work on the approaches to my little creek bridge...and ran up and down the creek, splashing over and over even more than my Chesapeake.

Roasted some coffee for my son to take home, and then watched a little bracketology...UNC and UVA number 1 seeds - pretty good. Sorry about the Noles, Larro.

Eric, I never heard of a power company planning a day without electricity. I think here stockholders or cooperative owner/members would go nuts, as well as customers.

Good Morning. 0555, fog, 61F with 99% humidity. Forecast high of 83F with 30% chance opf rain today, and a low of 63F tonight.

I just walked back from the camp in time to catch Margie before she went to work. I hit a log and busted a tire on the truck last night. It slid off the jack a couple of times, so I just waited to come in and get the floor jack. It's a 10 minute walk from drive to drive, so I'm not that far out in the wilds.

I have peas up in the garden. I plowed them yesterday, just because I could.

You guys have a good one,

Larro
