Costco was very crowded. Mask were not required. Plenty of toilet paper. Mask were required at the dentist until work started.

Our county had 400 new cases yesterday and today 335, heading in the right direction but Monday usually includes the weekend so need another few days to define the trend.

Got word that one of the water volleyball players from the farm died suddenly while in town, cause heart attack but autopsy revealed she also had covid and her husband is in the hospital with a bad case of covid. Vaccine status unknown.
Also another WVB player has covid also, unvaccinated but doing good.
One of the card players here fell down at the theater and got a 9" cut on her head, broken wrist and broken femur. She missed cards last night so I might have gained a position.
A step cousin died - born the same year as me, and one of my mom's neighbors died. A fire truck and Ambulance were two houses down this morning taking my neighbor to the hospital. It's not been a good week for some, except for the hospitals and morticians. Central Texas hospitals reported only 2 ICU rooms available before my neighbor was transported.
I can report no cavities from the dentist, but that seems kind of lame now.

EDIT: News just reported 1 ICU room available. Only 14% are due to Covid, the problem is staffing to open up more ICU rooms.

94˚F (HI101).

Drew, if you just want seat time, you can go and Bush hog for my dad on the L5030 open station. Course it’s in OH, the land is steep. But he has plenty of unairconditioned spare rooms to stay in.

Or, the flail on my open station LS XR4140H, also unairconditioned rooms, but really great views, even grander from tractor seat.

Don, Thank God for the good dentist report. The other news, not so much. Take care.

Should probably replace my RV tires, notices cracking on one side, other side look good. Very few miles on them, just age.

I didn’t want to head to the OBX on suspect tires.

 

[toppop52]

I got the bill for the tires, apparently my math is not so good, $1197.00.

Huge storm on way home, heavy rain, lightning, wind. Nothing at home but a sprinkle.
Now I could enjoy mowing in Hawaii.

Work now says employees must be vaccinated to enter buildings, and will have to verify it. They didn’t say when it starts or how to verify. While I’m vaccinated, I don’t think it’s their business to know. I asked my boss if he has plenty of work we can do from home.
The also have strongly encouraged masks against, but not required if vaccinated. I am not wearing one, as I generally work alone, but most people are wearing them again.

I was in 2 Walmarts pretty early this morning. Masks not required, but I only saw one woman not wearing a mask. Yep, I've gone back to wearing mine, as nearly everyone in Walmart is doing so.
