Good morning! Having trouble posting pic this morning because it was a one second video. Had to do a screen shot off the I-phone. The pic is my mom's hay field yesterday. Her county got twice as much rain as we did and the fields are being cut. They will probably bale today.

RNG good job on the tank. How many feet above the house is it? I also could not view the retirement Tube.

Good morning, low 56 high 75°F. Wind NE 11 mph. Sunny!

I've got all the parts together for the truck, but the mosquitos were so heavy yesterday that I scrapped that plan. I'll take the parts with me and do the jobs later. I did get graphite into the locks and that was THE most important job.

I think my cat missed me, he hasn't left me alone since I came home and I was only away for 4 days. What is he going to be like after this next tour when I will be gone for 3 months?

I'm not sure what I will get up to today, but you can be guaranteed it wont be much.

Have a safe day all

66 and drizzle, going to 78 and sun. Got another 1" of rain, but yeah, BEF, Culpeper got hammered. Mostly, the flood warning was due to the amount of rain that was falling upriver of us, not what was falling here, and the scattered large downfalls predicted.

RNG, thoroughly enjoyed reading about your tank project and video...and great view from that tank. Thanks for sharing.

Don, that's a big field. Hope the hay harvest is a bumper one.

We had fun at the rehearsal and then went to dinner downtown last night. Great Italian place.

Saw first little spotted fawn with mom crossing our field yesterday.

That is a big tank. I’d worry about it settling if any fill below it.
I got the YouTube link to work

Did she say yes?

Wngsprd, congrats on son wedding.

I gotta go to church building to provide tech support for a memorial service for someone I didn’t know. I hope I can get them connected and then leave. I already set up a guest account on WiFi, and put in a Bluetooth receiver so they can play music over our audio system.

We got 1.88” rain. Still overcast.

79 degrees going for 92. Yesterday’s forecast called for a 20% chance of rain today. And at 6:27 a.m. we were getting as heavy a rain as I’ve ever seen, with thunder and lightning, then at 6:31 a.m. had the loudest clap of thunder I’ve ever heard, the house lights went off and right back on, the cable TV went off, rain water was shooting out of the downspouts so strong it was shooting out past one gutter pan out back and washed away a gutter pan out front. And now at 6:55 a.m., it’s settled down to a light rain falling and I can see that my gauge already has more than 1.5” in it.

The rain stopped as abruptly as it started, so at 7:15 a.m. I waded out and dumped about 1.7" out of the gauge.

Sent Buppies pvt. message and he's busy like chipmunk getting ready for winter.

Winter !! Now I'm feeling depressed, I suppose the signs are there every day of how quickly the year is passing, the sheep are shorn, my wife just picked the first strawberry and the ducklings on the big pond are no longer little balls of fluff.

Wng, congratulations to your son & wife. By the end of the day your feet will be longing for you to change change back into hiking boots.

Popgadget, hope your potential DIL appreciates all the planning and says yes.

BEF, pleased to hear all that Python coding you did worked out well.

RNG, I hope you never need to use that tank during a wildfire, having it in place must be a great feeling.
