Good morning!!!!

good morning all
hope you feel better soon Roy.

nice family get together last night, good food, a little too much wine...and slept pretty well afterwards.

having first cup of coffee, not very motivated, though I might make a run to nursery to get a couple rose bushes later.

David, those cabinets look super, many thousands of dollars worth for a couple hundred, good deal. Are you going to install a through the wall vent
for the kitchen exhaust?

Good morning, on the same day that Thomas's wife was firing up her woodstove we were enjoying our warmest day of the year, although it was only a modest 24C/75F.
Today could be hotter, the sheep have yet to be sheared so most are already hiding in the shade of the oaks. The few that were still out in the in the sun were in front of a closed gate and berated me for excluding them from the field behind. I tried protesting that I was only doing what the label on the herbicide demanded but they were not impressed.

Very cute picture Ron.

Sodamo, kitchen cabinets made from "real" wood and ply must be a rare find nowadays, they should look good when you have finished.

Coffee is done brewing. 46° with partly cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 76° with mostly sunny skies. Weather was almost perfect for a Memorial Day celebration. Spent time with neighbors instead of doing weed killer. Maybe today.
Forgot to post moon picture from last month. Never got full moon because of clouds.

Roy, hope you get feeling better soon.

Drew, glad you had good family get together.

David, cabinets look good.

Everyone stay healthy and safe.

Good Morning All.

51 going to 80 and some sun. Yesterday was perfect.

Roy, hope its not the C virus and you feel better soon.

Eric, those sheep are lucky you are there caretaker. When's shearing time?

Finally got a chance and the right ground and weather conditions to finish bringing down a large loblolly that the ice storm had leaning over the branches of a big sugar maple. Huge grape vines, big around as my ankle, made it more of a challenge. The grapple came in handy for getting it moved from the hiking path. While I had the tractor out, tilled some, and then mowed for 3 hours...lots of catching up after we finally got a good rain Saturday.

Another nice, early summer morning. Not so seriously cold and clear as a bell.

Good morning, low 49 and high 73°F. Wind W 3 mph. A mix of sun and cloud.

Today I get to turn the compost pile.

Roy, let us hope that you ONLY have the flu and not the other nasty.

Most of the celestial events that everybody else sees we only get the see in the news. It is almost always clouded over or raining/snowing.
Maybe we will see the Maple Leafs win the Stanley Cup, Haleys Comet comes around more often than the Leafs win it.

Have a safe day all

 

[Thomas]

47F low 70's for high sun cloud mix.
Last 6 months flew by helloooo June.

Outside chores done E muffin time.
Plans for today...little of this and little of that other than that putter.

Enjoy the day all.

Fingers cross on negative C19 test Roy.

Good Morning.
It’s 60 going up to 73 with clear skies.
I ordered a good old fashioned cone style rain gauge to act as a tie breaker between the Davis and Tempest. I’m betting on the Davis.

Yesterday was a wonderful day, sunny and breezy. I got all the trimming done with the Lazer, the ground was not really soggy, and the breeze dries the grass out pretty well. I still had the loader with 4-1 bucket and ballast box on the tractor, so dropped the ballast box and removed the loader, 3pt quick hitch and multi port hydraulic quick connect make those tasks fast and effortless.
Hooked up the Progressive mower and pulled it around to the shop and greased all the spindles and u-joints.
I went out to lunch, came back and cleaned out the firebox on the smoker and reloaded it for this weeks cook. Did a few other chores while the sun and wind worked their magic and dried things up. I started mowing around 5pm and got all done except for a few areas with standing water. The new blades did a great job, and still look new.

Today I’ve got to go to Akron, OH where I have to sit until 8:30 and then get to come home. Fortunately I don’t have to leave until 3, so I can get something done around here first.

Good morning! 67˚F Cloudy. 1.24" rain last night according to the Tempest weather station and 1.83" according to the COCORAHS gauge.
FireWise called off because of all the rain. Too wet to harvest the potatoes.

Woke up yesterday and could not straighten out my bum knee, still can't, looks like another knee operation in my near future, bummer.
Roy hope you get to feeling better and you don't have covid.
Ron that is a good use for the antique military vehicle, and nice textured on the moon.

Starting the community hand and foot card game last week I was in 3rd place on week 3 of the 3 month tournament. Since I only won 3 of 5 games last week I was expecting to go down to 5th to 7th place but was pleasantly surprised to see I had moved up to 1st place (out of 47 players). I guess the ones ahead of me had a worse night. Last night I won 4 of 5 so there is a good chance I was able to keep my 1st place for another week. Will find out next week when the status sheet is posted.

If it dries up by this afternoon I need to mow.
