70.2F and "Fair" @ 21:15, heading down to around 67F for overnight low. LWS reports that mercury hit 94.6F for the high here today.
Got 3 cattle panels moved into the shop and straightened out, had to weld one wire back on one of them. Decided the 4th one didn't really need straightening ... it should be good to go.
Came back down to the house after that around 17:00 and headed out on the deck for more disassembly work. Was in shade ... but it was absolutely miserable with the heat and humidity ...
Got about an hour in on that and had to come inside since The Woman was headed over to the neighbor's for a haircut. (She operates the window, opening and closing it so the Little Squeak doesn't get out when I'm out there)
And because it was clouding up to the north and west and I was hearing thunder.
Went out and hooked up the soaker hose on the Sunny Boys and set it to run for 15 minutes.
Grabbed the first tomato while I was out there ... a Crimson Cushion almost the size of a softball. Came back inside after that and sliced it up and ate the whole thing. Very meaty, small seeds, and not too much juice. Taste was great, not too acid.
Wasn't too long after that the skies opened up and dumped buckets. Got 1.3" in around 15 minutes or so. Had another little shower come through later this evening that dropped another 0.11" ... so 1.41" total for the day.
My young neighbor the arborist stopped by around that time to drop that tree over on the east side of the garden.
Got that dropped over into the woods so it wouldn't be lying on the lawn about the time it was getting too dark to really see.
Probably going to have a brownie which The Woman made yesterday with some milk and watch a little bit of the Olympics.
Hope everyone had a great day ...
