[ronjhall]

Drinking first cup of coffee. 27ｰ with clear skies this morning. Heading to 59ｰ with sun all day. Got some trees trimmed yesterday. Cleaned up the yard . Plan to continue that today. May do some cleanup of garden pond. Fish are swimming around. Trying to get a pickup time with Walmart. No luck yet.

So many good pictures lately. Mr Cardinal, Moon, and young Gray Squirrels. There are 3 Black ones also. But have not caught them close together yet.


Eric, good pictures of pond.

Kyle, Leave it to Beaver.


RNG, I think some of the mask reports are mixing up which mask work. Cloth questionable, N95 and N99 are the best, and normal medical better than cloth. I will not leave my place without one. They are saying that most of the passing is from touching something with virus on it. Then touching face. So a mask may help.
Same with schools in Michigan.

Randy, hope monitor gets you good information to doctor.

Thomas, great picture. I think we all need a wishing well.

Everyone be safe and healthy.

Good Morning All.

Sad event near here, estranged husband shot killed his wife outside in her driveway( 3 kids inside), also shot and killed neighbor HS kid who was out in his yard. He later shot himself when cops showed up at his house.

We have everyone except for bear. But they drive so fast down county gravel road nobody would see what animals are on sign. Speed limit is 55+.

Light rain last night, too wet for much outside work. My dogs are on some kind of guard mission in the front yard... or maybe they are mad at each other...

53°F and light rain, going up to 71° today. Rain is forecast to be intermittent through the rest of today and into tomorrow.

Need to arrange a chicken feed pick-up at Tractor Supply. Probably do that tomorrow morning.

Wife was texting with her oldest son in Texas this morning and said they can't find TP anywhere. He asked if we could ship some to them. So, she hopped on Amazon, and has some on the way. I suggested that they get outside of the San Marcos / San Antonio / Austin markets and try some of the smaller towns. That's been successful for us around here.

Beautiful scenery, Eric.

Why can't your son order from Amazon?
I'v one son that used to work Mom like that, so he didn't have to pay.

46 going up to 54-rain, more rain. One of my fields is total mud, can't even walk there. Moved some gravel yesterday and starting prepping to get the pool bar in place. Platform has wheels and just have to mount the bar on the platform and drive it over with the tractor/clamp on forks.

Sorry to hear about the shooting buckeye, something similar happened to a good friend of mine a few years back. She got the gun to protect herself, he used it on her. Still can't believe it to this day...

They don't do online purchases, at all. Seems odd for their age group (mid- to late-20s), but that's how they are. That's why I suggested they try less-traveled places.
Interestingly enough, it's the younger son who does the "work Mom" thing, and he does it all the time. She usually succumbs to it, but lately has been telling him no. He works his Grandma the same way. I'd be embarrassed to be asking people for money all the time, but it doesn't seem to bother him at all. It's almost like he expects it.
