Good morning!!!!

RNG, I have my guess ready for what kind of machine you might get, but I don't want to give it away.
...
We are doing well with provisions. Although we still do NOT like single ply toilet paper.

Guess all you want, Kyle. Won't do you any good!:laughing:

I don't even like two ply, but the short 4" rolls are the worst. And now I've got plenty of both. Still, beats heck out of newsprint...:shocked::laughing:

That is an unbelievable view. How in the world can you keep a straight line with that?

Who said I could? LOL

Good evening all. 62F for the start, fog and calm wind. Wind was up and down today, partly sunny this afternoon, and high temp of 75F. Energy conservation today, was up for a couple of hours again, puttered in kitchen cleaning up a bit and made wife's brunch, and got mailbox chime working again. Did get nap in.
No new cases from yesterday in my county or 1 county east or west.
Kyle interest how some tree burn normal and some like soaked in gas

Never liked single ply, but the German variant was even worse.

Finished mowing my farside area, nope didn’t tempt the dropoff this time.
Did manage to hit the 150 hour on the LS


Just for variety took a pic toward house.


and one by fence just for reference as to how thick and tall.


Made a transfer station run, then grilled a couple of bone in NY strips and sweet potatoes for lunch.

Don’t know if we have grocery pickup or delivery as an option. Being 20 miles from town having delivery would be a shock. We do have 3 main grocery stores, Walmart technically isn’t one, County wouldn’t approve them for Super Walmart, groceries are somewhat scattered throughout the store. I’d be more tempted to drive to Costco for a pickup, but it would be pricey.

So after lunch, mounted tractor again and another bit of mowing, actually second brush hog run in 2 areas closer to house. Much quicker this time. Really hoping I can keep up with it this time as part of normal mowing schedule. Miss 2 or 3 rotations and it’s back to the wild.

Another blessed day.

Beer o'clock?

You need to send some seeds to New Mexico....that and some rain.

Randy, hope they figure it out, glad the water helped. Prayers. I've noticed lately, I've awoke (possibly from some dreams) and my pulse would be over a hundred...is that AFIB? ...

Could be ... but it isn't necessarily A-fib.

The condition of (an abnormally) high heart rate is generally called tachycardia ... there can be a variety of causes, depending on where it originates and the specific type:

Tachycardia - Wikipedia

My 90 year old mom and 70 year old brother have it. He just got diagnosed a few weeks ago.

I'd say you'd be wise to get it checked out by your doctor ... or at least mention it to him/her.

Particularly if it wasn't just a one-off occurrence.

Thank you.

Maybe it's because we have a project at work that involves cardiomyocyte cells that I'm involved with....

40 right now...high about 50 today.
Didn't get the mulch down, but did clean all the leaves out of the area. Tried getting the zero-turn started (to mulch the leaves I had raked), but the battery was dead. While charging the battery, I leaned over the engine bay and snapped the fuel tank vent...bummer. the replacement vent and grommet is going to cost about 38 bucks...

46 high of 65 rain presently over by 11 or so then wind comes back

Trimmed pampas trimmed up oak tree limbs have a new mud turtle in pond

Prayers for all

Good morning, swallows started to arrive a couple of weeks ago and now each morning they can be heard sat on the roof ridge, chattered away. The sound is delightful. If only they would poop while perched up there, instead of releasing it while overhead during one of their stunning acrobatic shows.

In our region (the Midlands), there have now been 2,936 deaths due to the virus, an unenviable total, which ranks second only in the UK to London. Fortunately for us we live at the edge of the region, the worst hot spots start 20 miles away, but that is no distance at all in places like petrol stations. I haven't filled our cars up in over a month, there is still plenty left in the tanks for our once a week trip to buy food.

All this sun has caused a bloom of blanket week in the ponds. Yesterday I spent a couple of hours dragging it out of one up by the roadside. With UK lockdown rules allowing a walk or bike ride once each day, the number of people out for exercise walking up the road was much higher than what I would normally see. Almost everyone that passed gave me a smile and said hello. I talked (at a safe distance) to a local couple, many years ago the lady had worked at the creamery where they are about to build houses. She didn't know there was a public footpath that passes through the site and that it links to other paths and bridleways where they can explore this part of their countryside. Little things like that show the virus does have an upside. It giving our prime minister a near death experience has for certain got him to think more about the people who care for others and hopefully that too will bring some benefits to society when this is over.

Farmeratheart, I don't know what a Red Bud tree is, but it looks great. The huge stack of firewood under the blue tarp in the background looks good too :thumbsup:
