71 and 97% humidity, going to 92.

Kyle, changing oil until midnight...that's devotion and work ethic. I still use that so-called horse pee in my truck. 😁 šŸŽ

Got a few small things done yesterday but mainly was a Tex-Mex lunch and Costco run. Dee-lish, and Costco was running smooth even on a Friday afternoon, with road construction out front on the highway.

Saw this beetle on my house foundation yesterday...never saw this type before...red legged buprestis...apparently likes dead trees...but none close by, so must also like to fly.

good morning all
73 in Lancaster Pa going up to 89 today
waiting for coffee to finish perking
did not sleep well, didn't wear my soft collar enough yesterday and neck
hurts this morning. Just part of getting old and falling apart...

this morning we are off to Bird in Hand, not far from campground, to look for
Amish bakery stuff to take home, have one order for a wet bottom shoo fly pie.
I'm looking for home made breads also.
Then this afternoon will hang out at friends home on their back deck overlooking a stream and have dinner with them.

last night's dinner was very good, pretty loud in the restaurant, and fun.
boy do I need coffee
some chopped fruit and a slice of cranberry bread to go with it.

oh what a difference a long hot shower makes
and nothing leaked...
it's a bit strange showering in a tiny phone booth, but after living aboard my boat
for three years, I'm used to small showers. Though actually the bertram's shower was a small tub, a lot larger than the rv. Plenty of hot water from new water heater.

read somewhere that hot water heater is redundant.
no need for the hot
makes sense

second cup of coffee going down, rv is comfortable,
happy with what I've got

Buppies, hope your wife is doing ok. I have the most wonderful picture of the two of you sitting in my motorhome, and she had this wonderful smile on her face. It was a good day. I hope you have more.

Good morning TBN!!
64 this morning and overcast/hazy. Should reach 90 with late Tstorms possible.

Spent a good chunk of the day modifying my HF 20T press. Got a new knob on the release. Cut a piece of steel to fit on the base. Also rounded up some angle iron and casters to add.
Going to go out and check some garage sales this morning and then will work on the press some more.
That's about it.

Time for a second cup
Everyone have a great and safe day!!

Good morning, the low is 68 and going to a high of 82°F. Wind ESE 6 mph. 70% chance of showers with risk of a T-storm.

My fresh sowed grass seed is coming along nicely. By next year you won't know that there was bare earth there this year.

I don't think I will be doing anything today.

Have a safe day all

had wanted to go a little larger, as my 2 ton geo unit seems undersized when it was working correctly. He's afraid of a short run time with larger unit, not enough dehumidification.

With a modern system with an inverter drive for the compressor and electronic expansion devices, you can go oversized and get great dehumidification. It also has the benefit of producing more heat from an air to air system because of the greater capacity.

Good Morning
74° and grey outside. Not as foggy as yesterday though. Supposed to burn off and make it to the middle 80’s and humid, but low chance of rain. Should be a good day for Ken’s party.

Yesterday, I went to the RC club and flew with the rest of the old guys. After that I made some chopped brisket sandwiches with the leftovers from the 4th. Fed my self and some band mates.
After lunch we all went to the hospital over an hour away to see our drummer of over 20 years that suffered a massive stroke after bypass surgery. He is on a ventilator and ā€œunresponsiveā€ with a bleak prognosis. His wife is ready to pull the plug. That is a choice that I couldn’t imagine being faced with, especially considering that I just played music with him two weeks ago, but does seem appropriate in this case.

After we got back, I reversed my decision to not go meet some old friends at a brewery. I had figured it was a long day, and I would go the next time. After thinking about it, I realized that you never know when it’s the last time, so I went.

Today we are playing at a ā€œsummerfestā€ with a substitute drummer. Fortunately, he has played with us many times in the past and knows our material. It’s always a fun gig, there are two stages, so there is no break in the music as the bands change out. The back line is supplied (drums, amps, etc) so the setup time is minimized as well.

The only downside is that I’ll miss Ken’s party.
Not sure what I’ll get into this morning, Amazon brought me a new tube for a pneumatic tired hand truck I pulled out of the shed in last week’s cleanup. That’s a bite sized chore that I’ll likely get to.

70 this morning high of 91 maybe storms maybe not. The upper atmosphere is working towards a winter time pattern so changes are already a foot. Nice to consider in all this heat and humidity

Went to bed at midnight up at 6:00AM wish this would stop. Holly hid her pills lucky I found them.

Prayers for all our Country
