Good morning!!!!

Good Afternoon! 91˚ no wind, muggy. Nice pics Lenny and riptide.
Kyle - no lines in Giddings because no fuel. Buckey's ran out at 10 AM this morning and they don't know when they will be replenished. Also out are Brookshires, Rattlers, and several larger stations. That means the smaller 2 pump places will run out soon. I was able to find fuel at a 2 pump station on Hwy21. They had bags on one pump so I guess people thought both pumps were out, but the other one was still working. News say they will get deliveries back to normal in about 2 weeks. I'm glad I did not have to go all the way to Weimar to get gas.

The watermelon was not the sweetest, Harvey messed that up. It's best on the last 2 weeks of getting ripe that a watermelon gets no water to be the sweetest. On the question of seeds vs no seed watermelon that is a toss up depends when they were picked, weather and soil.

70F and partly sunny @ 14:00, high predicted to be 72F for the day. High Monday predicted to hit 81F and then into the 60's and 70's for the rest of the 10 day. Negligible rainfall over the last few days. Chance of rain Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.

Probably at least mow down here around the house. Should be able to get the front lawns too ... can't imagine that it could be all that wet but who knows.

We drove around a good bit today in Denton. Without actually counting, it appeared that about two-thirds of the gas stations were out of gas. I bought gas at Sam's Club ($2.589 a gallon) and noticed that most (if not all) the other stations that still have gas have it priced at $2.659).

Turkeys are out in force here. Some of the young are hidden by the grass.

Happy birthday Lenny!

Here's the most powerful video I've seen from Harvey. Unscripted. I wish I could find this man and son. I would go buy his son some school clothes.

You have turkeys like I have wild hogs. Wanna trade?

I'd take the turkeys too....or a .223

Skipped the lawn mowing until after the rain gets here.

Ended up screening compost up by the shop. Got a good bit done and a big pile, but probably only a quarter done, if that.

Need to locate the push broom to clean the screen though as a rake ain't cutting it.

RS, can you post some recent pics of your compost screens? I'm thinking of doing something similar here. Looking to steal any good ideas.
