Good morning!!!!

[Buppies]

Raining this morning quite steady in fact and cool low 60s going to 80 today with showers all day. Rest of week more like August with high 80s for highs maybe a 90 thrown in for good measure. Working out of town rest of week

Has been clear and sunny here for almost a week straight now, so nice to have a break from the rain. Tomato plants are finally beginning to produce (pun intended) and we really enjoy savoring the taste of home grown red fruit. Today I am going to replace the OEM drive belt on my 11 year old Saturn, then change the oil and filter on the GMC. I will hit the big six-two in a few days and qualify to collect Social Security and cannot wait to get my greedy hands on the income. Have a great day, guys...I know I certainly will.

Mossflowerwoods the OBX is a great place to relax recharge yourself and set new goals. Hopeful this time you had will prove helpful to you. Be careful driving in the rain to work today

Got 15 yard of topsoil to move but rain is preventing this from happening. August and September are great months to sow grass seed in our neck of the woods but rain is not cooperating. Best yard we ever had was put in in early fall late summer. Still working on entrance to driveway but this is only thing left to do. It now gets dark at around 8:00 and working out of town gets me home to late to move it and to far to move it in dark

Good morning, 75˚ clear, going to 99˚ Going to pretty up some trees the county butchered on the road. The county did a good job on their side of the fence but they can't quite get a clean cut with a rotary blade. At least they cleared it out so I can see the trees and they hauled their cuttings away.

JDGreen, happy birthday in advance. I know, you only get better looking each year!

I did the SS thing last year, when I hit 62, and what impressed me was how pleasant the local office was.
Everything worked the first time, the money showed up when they said it would, and I got lots of confirming
documents. A first class experience. good thing, after sending them money for more than forty years...
I wonder if ten years from now the experience will be the same for others once the SS system has been hit by repeated expense reductions.

JDGreen happy early birthday and enjoy collecting your SS sure you've earned it. Still have a couple of years to go myself two years seven weeks to be exact

Buppies, is the driveway entrance the picture in your avatar? Looks nice already,
do you have a plan yet for what you want to do?

FarmGirl, I want to know how you made it to Elite membership in six months when you work as hard as you do...
Do you have a laptop in the barn? You are amazing.
Or very talkative...
You blew past me a while back like a Mustang GT500 sucking the doors off a Pinto...
Yes, I remembered you like Fords.

May you and all the other fine folk from Texas have a very nice day. It will rain two inches for you between
three and five this afternoon. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Humma Humma :dance1:

Drew yes it is what you don't see is the stone walls and columns on each side of driveway shrubs and flowers on street side new trees on house side. Behind the picture you see is low because of wall so that is where about half load of the top soil will go. Walls are 14 ft long six ft columns at driveway five foot tall at ends two foot six inches wide. This has been a two year project almost done. This picture is two years old so walls and gate are not in and where dirt is needed is other side
