Good morning!!!!

   / Good morning!!!! #199,451  
Good (Sunday) morning. Overnight Low of 12.3C and it's presently 18.3C, overcast & fairly calm. Thunderstorm already happened & constant rain predicted for the day. There was 2.8mm in the gauge @ 0730.

What with yesterday's intermittent rain it was an 'inside day'.

As per usual, I'm off to Church in about a half hour and then the rest of the day is His.

That's about it, take care all.

had a fun time at train museum, will have to wait til I get home to do pictures.
long drive down here, constant heavy traffic in PA and MD.

first visit to brother's home, renting a nice home on a 600 acre estate here outside of Middleburg. The amount of old money in this area is quite something. It's a modest home but he's happy downsizing. I'll get to see the rest of the place tomorrow but looking down at a big field with a giant horse barn, and lots of horses (and deer) in field. Brother says deer come out and lay down with the horses.

drinking cup of coffee so I don't fall asleep at dinner, we are headed out to a local pub.
Everything here is old. Sat night, bet restaurant is jammed. They already called to confirm dinner reservation

40°F and cloudy this morning, and only got up to 58° today. Windy most of the day, too.

I got a whole lot of nothing done today, and I did it very well. I did get in an epic nap this afternoon, though. "So, I got that goin' for me."

Should be warmer tomorrow. Neighbor came over Friday to get some branches trimmed from a tree line, and drove his truck right out into the wet area behind the pond. (grumbling and mumbling) Great, more ruts to fix before next mowing season.

Tree service showed up unexpectedly this morning to grind out the stump from the pecan tree. Guess they finally got their machine back from the shop. Wouldn't have hated a little notice, though.

Good evening, gents.

Coffee is cooling in cup. 43° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 53° with cloudy skies. Got Garden Pond leaf cleanup done. 2 trees in front yard are slowing losing their leaves. Shop cleanup got area around work bench cleaned up. Hope to get area around lathe done today.
2 Sandhill Cranes showed up at feeders yesterday. Doing lots of honking. They moved to other yards making lots of noise. The young one was missing. In the evening all 3 of them showed up. Young one acted like was being punished for not following its parents in the morning.
