68°F and .5 inches rain.

Guys lost at H& F again.

23 bags 920 lbs of salt in pool. A pause until I can check the salinity. And stabilize the chemistry. PH a tad high.

The BX fuel filter may hAve been an expensive fix. Seems I apparently cracked the crystal on my Apple Watch. Then I lost control of the diesel getting a good soaking on that hand/ wrist. Watch not working. Had hoped to get another year before replacing, only 4 years old.
Wonder if there’s another study offering free?

Should get back to mowing after I get the mower deck on.

Guess I forgot to push the button this morning

Yep, break out the puffy coats and gloves!
The puffy clothing will not need to come out till it gets in the 70s.
108˚ today, 103 in the shady backyard now, we are under an excessive heat warning till 7pm, sure hope it gets under 100˚ by 7pm. Hottest day this week. 77 days of 100+

Good day with the probate lawyer wrapping things up and ready for the estate sale. She claims I'm moving at warp speed, I told her the impending knee surgery is my incentive, because I will be shut down for a month recovering.

Good (Saturday) morning. Overnight Low of 5.3C and it's presently 15.7C, clear with a light breeze. There was 3mm of rain in the gauge from a surprise downpour late yesterday morning.

I did, indeed, pick up a 30m length of water hose yesterday and will get it installed today. The 'Mad Agisting Horse Woman' is planning on shifting their horses to the 'Grandfather's' property (we're jokingly calling it "Paddock #7") for a month or so. She's having to feed with square bales as there're no rounds available and hopes that there will be more grass 'picking' over there. My grass is still in dormant Winter mode.

So, depending on when the horses shift, the clean-up of Paddock #5 will occur sometime this coming week.

That's about it, take care all.

I added a Deco X50-outdoor to my mesh system. Placed it on back porch. Gives me full signal out past back barn. Worked good for Drew inside his Motorhome when he visited.
I tested mine today, it works great on the porch, course my starlink worked there also, but I don't think it will carry to my camper. I had no signal outside the barn. Now, I do have ethernet in the barn using a power line extender, so could put a unit out there. Since I have ethernet cables, I did connect mine with cable.

Good evening all. 77ºF for the start, partly cloudy, light breeze. Light wind with some moderate gusts, partly cloudy sky, and high temp was 107ºF. Putter to start day, (no alarm :) ). Bike ride, then took Volagi to bike shop to get shift cable and housing replaced. Went to lunch and book store, then back to shop to pick up bike. Nap when I got home.

good morning all
up way too early, actually beat Ron
.93 on weather station, more than expected
here comes the lawn again...

77 days of 100+ weather is remarkable Don.
what are you going to do when global warming arrives?...

I had real problems with dehydration in NC i sweat so much for 8 months out of the year.
Maybe living further North has its advantages.

could someone track down Bird?

My sister has this most amazing weather along the coast of the Pacific, summer highs in mid 70's.
David has wonderful weather on top of his Hawaiian mountaintop. Wet, but not too hot.
what is really helpful here is the consistent rain.

Don, I hope all those newly arriving Californians don't drink all your water
does Texas have good well water? or do you just hit oil...;)

I have a bunch more of those poblanos coming in Mostly. They really are a hot weather veggie and
last week's high heat here did the trick.
wish I was closer, would give a bunch to you
something tells me your tummy is a lot stronger than mine, plus I have acid reflux, etc.
hot peppers are a big no no for me.

I'll have to see if Ken or Paul like mild hot peppers.

my landlady is coming over today, and she is getting my four baby eggplants.
The plants have collapsed, they really need to be picked. Mine never grow very large.
And I don't even eat them.
