Good morning! 70s to 90s today with a chance of a shower around 4:00.

Eric when Lance was doing the Tour we watched it, it was very inspiring. Of course now we know he had a little help, with my endurance and speed there is no question about doping.

Ron, you have the bench in your hallway to graduate to a full drop zone just add hooks behind the bench for your coat.

Finished adding extra shelves in the pantry and increased the storage area 50% by adding 160 sq. ft. more shelving.

All the OTA tv channels are coming in this morning, do they up the power on weekends?

I did spinning for 30 minutes yesterday without the class, we only have class on Mondays and Wednesdays. Is the past tense of bike spinning - spun? I have a long way to go to catch up to Mostly.

Today is my wife's Great Aunt's Birthday! Happy Birthday Aunt Gladys - 101 today!!!!!!! She still is very much with it, lives by herself, but has realized because of her vision can no longer drive.

It would have to be spunning. :0 Ed

picked up a bag of easy to eat food, what I call sick people food, and heading over shortly to my elderly friend who sounded terrible and had a bad night.
This is worth reading:

What Everyone Should Know about Shingles Vaccine (Shingrix)
One of the Recommended Vaccines by Disease

Shingles vaccination is the only way to protect against shingles and postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), the most common complication from shingles. CDC recommends that healthy adults 50 years and older get two doses of the shingles vaccine called Shingrix (recombinant zoster vaccine), separated by 2 to 6 months, to prevent shingles and the complications from the disease. Your doctor or pharmacist can give you Shingrix as a shot in your upper arm.

Shingrix provides strong protection against shingles and PHN. Two doses of Shingrix is more than 90% effective at preventing shingles and PHN. Protection stays above 85% for at least the first four years after you get vaccinated. Shingrix is the preferred vaccine, over Zostavaxョ (zoster vaccine live), a shingles vaccine in use since 2006. Zostavax may still be used to prevent shingles in healthy adults 60 years and older. For example, you could use Zostavax if a person is allergic to Shingrix, prefers Zostavax, or requests immediate vaccination and Shingrix is unavailable.

The low this morning was 50, yesterday high was in the low 90's and party cloudy in the afternoon. Today is going to be in the high 80's with a 20% chances of thunderstorms this afternoon.

My wife and I want downtown SLC for our daughters birthday. I got home late yesterday afternoon, my wife is staying for a few more day's. The grandsons were with their dad so didn't get to see them.

Not sure what the plans are for today. Probably work on the trailer some and go up and bug the neighbor and see what he is up to.

Hope everyone has a good safe weekend.
CWB.

Good morning for me. Chipper is gone. Got my asking price.
Wife decorated utility room. It has fishing pictures and decorations on all walls. I caught a few trophy fish on Great Lakes. 13 lbs walleye. 20.3 steelhead. 40.7 king salmon. Won prizes for each. Best prize I got was watching the excitement on my wife’s face every time she caught another fish.

Good Morning!!!! 67F @ 7:00AM. Sunny to partly cloudy. High near 95F. Winds SSW at 5 to 10 mph.

Winds are out of the WNW this morning, so beautiful blue skies and very little smoke/haze. That'll change once the winds shift to either north or south, as major fires blaze now in either direction.

Thanks for posting that CDC note, Drew. Sounds like it's time to visit Costco for a shot or two.

Got the fuel tank off the Honda yesterday, and the coating stuff showed up that afternoon. It was time to see if the old cement mixer would start, and very much to my surprise, it did, on just the fifth pull of the cord. This after sitting outside uncovered for three or four years, but with the carb and fuel tank totally dry. Poured the degreaser part of the kit into the tank, dumped in 500 BBs, screwed on the lid, and wrapped the tank in an old moving blanket, holding it in place with a pair of bungee cords. Slipped it into the cement mixer and gave it a nice 30 minute ride. Then realized I should have put a quart of hot water in with the degreaser, so did that and let it go another 30 minutes. What came out wasn't pretty, very rusty water and soap, but I saved it anyway for the spare tank I'll do today. Then the etchant went in, a half hour with the tank one way, and another half hour after flipping it so that the other end was down. Had to use a magnet on a stick to get all the BBs out, and after that a hot air gun to dry it out, but it has a nice gray coat of phosphate on it now and is ready for the tank liner. The spare tank gets to ride today, and I'll line them both tomorrow. Apparently once the can of liner is opened it will harden even if recapped, so I have to do both tanks at once...

It may not be a fine English side-by-side, but this is the first new gun I've purchased in a long while. It uses table salt for ****, house fly tags are free and there's no drawing to get one. Accuracy is very good but range is a rather limited three feet, but you don't have to worry about ricochets.:laughing: Didn't take long to make the first kill, as a clueless dinner predator landed on my shoe and was quickly dispatched, then smeared into oblivion by said shoe. The main quarry will be Yellowjackets, but maybe I should keep the sting salve handy until I work on my accuracy?

It was overcast most of yesterday, but the front cleared out just in time for the sunset.

Wow! YouTube really murdered the video quality on that one...

Hope everyone enjoys the weekend!
