Good morning!!!!

[PJSprog]

68°F and partly cloudy this morning, going up to 87° today with more t-storms expected this afternoon. I could already see tall clouds on the western horizon during my drive to work.

Good luck with your audit, Roy. Hope your coworkers make it easy.

71°F and .74 inches rain.
Nice visit with friends yesterday. They have been busy on house they bought down in last years lava flow area.
Got the radiator screen and dried grasses blown out and replaced my found stabilizer, otherwise not very productive. And I did sketch out a FOPs style sunscreen I’m going to build. Not that I need a FOPs, but like the idea of the front supports.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Really getting tired of this place. Wrong breakfast and lunch.
Friday cant come fast enough.

Finally got thru to Disability rep. He extended me 2 wks from last week, until he gets more paperwork. Nothing from my other calls got to him. What a screwed up process.

FIL was up eating this morning, doing ok.

Checking In From Piseco Lake, NY:

The kayaks finally got some water action the past two days. The eaglets have fledged from their island nest. Our two 9’6” kayaks are really not ideal for open lake water, wind, and wind driven waves, but we made the one mile paddle out to the island and discovered that this year’s eaglets have already fledged , but the adults are still around. A lot of beaver activity on the feeder streams, but we were able to reach our normal objectives. My favorite 13 mile (one way) trip up Fall Stream is no longer possible for this old, fat, and lazy kayaker who is probably now unable to portage over the numerous reported beaver dams upstream.
:embarrassed:, but I took advantage of today’s downtime to figure out a couple of more hopefully beaver dam/obstacle-free Adirondack kayaking adventures nearby. We are getting along well with our golfing BIL/GF. All’s good on this end.

Farmer- Good luck with your Son’s respiratory challenges. Almost all those bronchodilator meds cause excitation. My + thoughts, wishes, and prayers for your Son, you, and family.

I hope all those on the mend keep mending

My + thoughts, wishes, and prayers especially for those undergoing medical care and treatment and more so for RonJH and Betty.

good to hear your FIL is doing better Buckeye.
Ron, thanks, Hershey is a long haul for me, but a big show.
Am studying the exhibitor list and it says which models are coming.
That is how I hope to spend this afternoon, staying cool and looking at rv's online.

Been on backup gen for last half hour, a weekly occurrence here, front came through with some rain, and likely
windy conditions and down came the lines. I put my head out my front door, listen for my next door neighbor's kohler whole house gen running,
and then call it in. Power company is good here, reliability not so hot. I keep an eye on voltage with an inexpensive receptacle mount LED meter.

Except for hospitalizations I have been coming here and exploring the area since 1976. Most years I/We have visited several times during different seasons. It’s been an interesting experience seeing the evolution of the lake; the plant and wildlife; and its surroundings areas. Every day, every visit is different and a gift from Nature.

Actually any day anywhere talking down to the grass rather than up is a gift.

Good news about the FIL. Boy do I understand your impatience with waiting for discharge day! My longest hospital stay was for 6 weeks after a motorcycle accident 40 years ago. I still get anxious going anywhere near a hospital or rehab. It will be over soon and the real healing at home will begin in earnest. Good Luck.
