Good morning!!!!

[Thomas]

63F few clouds here and there middle 80's for high slight breeze.

Not much plan for today other than gas and diesel run and enjoying tractor pulling event.

Enjoy the day all.

Drinking first cup of coffee. 53° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 86° with lots of sun. Lawn has been mowed. Today will be the true rest day. Going to visit Aunt and Uncle in Port Huron today.
David S, nice job on the kitchen.
Eric, a couple of months? Wife has played that game with me. I have much more restraint than her. But a couple of months! Never for either of us.
Thomas, good luck fishing.
Drew, it never hurts to take a day off and let the body rest.
Good Morning All.

61 right now...high in the upper 70's.

Got one screen door re-screened and installed. I'll get the other (we have two) to the hardware store that does the work. These (Anderson) doors are probably 25 years old. Parts, such as the rollers, are still available. So, refurbishing is a lot cheaper than replacement.

Mowed the front and one side yesterday...I'll finish today. Maybe hit the field too. Doesn't really need it though, so it's not the highest priority

Worked on my little tractor yesterday, bought it to keep my driveway and weeds under control until I find a small front end loader. I can buy compact size everywhere but the SCUT and garden tractor size are scarce and cost as much as a compact. I've owned and sold two, not my smartest move.
More hot humid weather today. Be good or have fun, whichever is appropriate.

About 70 out this AM. No idea what the temp is suppose to be like today. A thunderstorm blew through here last night and today is pick up sticks and find pool floaties day. Yeah, the late night weather people did not get the forecast right. We left most things unsecured last night, and of course, they are all over the pasture now. At least the fence kept the pool chairs in the immediate area.

Think I'll go into the woods in a bit and look at some trees. I can see some dead tops from the pool view and I guess now is about the time for some firewood candidate selections.

Have a great day all. Be safe.

Good Morning!!!! 66F @ 6:15AM. Abundant sunshine. High 94F. Winds SSW at 5 to 10 mph.

Replacing the capacitor revived the clock, but not until I poked around with the minute and hour set buttons did it display anything resembling time. :confused2: Discovering that trick took disassembling and reassembling it a couple of times.

Another hot day, so puttering in the garage this morning, probably another nice siesta this afternoon after lunch.

Have a good 'un...

The low this morning was 45*, yesterday high was 89*. Today is going to be mostly sunny with a chance of showers later.

Didn't do much yesterday, trimmed a few trees so I can see down to the bridge on the river from the deck. The grandkids remember that I have BB guns and a pellet gun. So that was most of the afternoon. The grandson with eye problems can't figure out the open sighs. I don't think he can see the front sight. But he can use a scope, he has shot them before but this was the first he hit the targets. I was surprised how well he did.

Hope everyone has a nice day.
CWB.

Good morning...waiting on coffee.

Eric, how about this? Offer to quarantine the new shotgun for 2 months during the dead of winter if you can get some use of it now?

CWB, I need to get my kids a bb gun. Maybe a red rider, and teach them how to safely use it.

RNG, a pic of the capacitor/clock job perhaps when you have time?

Thomas, a wife that likes to fish, how perfect!

Still so hot. Over 100F yesterday and no rain in sight to speak of. We need some rain here at my house.

We started a compost bin using an old black plastic garbage can. After some reading about the pile needs oxygen, I will dump it out and put it on the ground within reach of a water hose from the house. I will keep the bagger on the mower and use it to add to the pile. It's just that I wanted the stuff to get up to 140-150F in order to kill weed seeds. Trying to figure out how to easily raise the scale of the operation, because I need a lot of compost.
