Randy(wag) glad you had nice weather. Polishing footwear sounds like work.
Mate, it's all about 'maintenance'.

I've had these two pairs of R.M.Williams "Craftsman" boots (one brown, one black) for over 25 years and wear them often. The current replacement cost for just one pair is A$650.

You bet I'm going to put in the 'work' to keep them going for as long as the 'uppers' last... as for re-soling, it doesn't matter how old these boots are, the company will re-sole them for free.

Poured first cup of hot coffee. 58° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 66° with cloudy skies. Grocery shopping went good. I had a small list. Grass got mowed in between rain sprinkles. No accumulation on gauges. Today a person from local power company is coming out to show me how to save on my energy bill. Current average usage is 22kwh per day.

Everyone stay safe and well.

Good Morning All.

good morning all
another wonderful bird pic to wake up to, Ron you have the best birds.

last of hot days, going to cool off slowly after rain comes in this afternoon. Rain or storms in forecast almost every day.

off to PT this morning then food shopping
my left knee is still bothering me, if not one thing, then...
was interesting to hear that PT lady said she could really help me with my plantar fasciitis.
really? need to investigate that, get a scrip first. Medicare usually pays nothing for feet, but worth paying cash
if they can help.

I hope Bird is ok. Always worry about him in high heat

Ted/LS, you getting any rain? Hope your drip system works well in that beautiful back yard.

this is a great story about Burning Man and this year's mud mess
I can just imagine me drifting my rv in that mud
not
anything resembling Woodstock would have me driving in the opposite direction.
crowds today are not safe places...

I would like to drive that Ram TRX though. 707 hp, quite adequate for the job

2.87 in of rain for the week watched big storm on porch last night up way too late even some hail at the beginning

Nice picture Ron

Please note I am not saying climate is not changing just remember all one reads or hears is not true our Country is being tested more than ever before. Our infrastructure is failing due to money being dedicated to giveaway programs not taking care of business so to speak

Prayers for all silent or spoken our Country

Good morning! 77˚F heading to 103˚. No rain BUT 40% chance tomorrow!!!

Buppies, good news on the 100s breaking. lower temps are now starting to show on the 10 day forecast. Next Wednesday the high is predicted to be only 88˚- break out the jackets.

Yesterday late evening I mowed the grass in the back yard around the irrigation sprinklers, the only grass that is growing. One new hedge, a lantana, that was replaced this spring after the ice storm died even though it was watered every other day. The only yard fatality during this 100 everyday no rain summer.
