Good evening all. 52F for the start, mostly clear, light breeze. Light wind today, partly cloudy sky, and high temp was 81F, DP 51F. Boat prep for carp netting today, Fish survey(shock boat) people showed up at 11AM and it was off to shock the fish. The survey people net the large mouth bass, weigh and measure the and release them. Fish club had 2 boats to follow and remove carp and drum. Pic was after 2hours, my netter had to go to work. Much harder to drive and net. Carp only stay shocked for 5-10 seconds and were mostly close to docks. We were seeing more bait fish and young bass that had spawned in lake, had not seen much of that past couple of years. Pulled boat out of lake shortly after 3PM. Did get it backed in driveway and took short nap.

59° and over 1” rain tonight.

Glad it was sunny till this morning.
Mostly, since you asked:

I remember climbing on these rocks on skyline drive in my teens.

Exiting the tunnel trail. One place a steady stream of water pours out of the wall inside the tunnel.

Son in 2003.

Same spot 2021

Parkway tunnel

Lake path

Bus turning at top of mountain, not much room to turn.

Trees at home

42° right now...high in the low 50's and rain...

Gonna be a quick trip to work to pick up my laptop, than back home. Wife and stepdaughter made some plans...unfortunately, without consulting me. That lead to a "discussion".
Well, I was going to leave early today anyway...appointment with a cardiologist this afternoon.

Beautiful pics of the Skyline Drive, BEF!! Brings back memories from a long, long time ago!!

Coffee is done brewing. 41° with partly cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 48° with slight chance of some sun in afternoon. Got another .88" of rain. Had nothing planned yesterday and got it all done. Going to move all the stuff that will freeze to cellar today. Take Sassy to groomer. Do a little bit of shopping while waiting for her to get done.

Mostly, got to help doing fish shocking a Jinmans small lake in 2005. Got to meet Texas TBN group there.

Roy, fast trip to work and back.

Buckeye, very nice pictures.

Drew, enjoy your guest.

Everyone stay healthy and safe.

Good Morning All.

good morning all.
rained all night, about 1.7 inches on gauge, expect another half inch or more today into tonight.
A very wet day for sure and I have to drive around in it, first to get blood work done at hospital at 7am(I need to get moving...)
and then pick up sandwiches for lunch around noon.

I cooked the meat loaf last night, made too much as usual so got to nibble on the extra piece. It will do, particularly with some nice rich
gravy on it; bought some heavy cream which I never normaly use but should make the gravy a little thicker and yummy

Dennis, awesome pics, thanks for taking us along.

59 going to 65. Rained last night, but not much. Winds up to 55 mph in the mountains today, up to 30 here. Leaf colors are great now, but I'm sure many will blow off today.

Mostly, that's quite a haul of carp. Real nice you guys help out. Glad you saw some young bass.

Need to go on a hike this morning and roast coffee later.

55 outside right now, heading to mid 60's.

Rain came through yesterday at 5PM. Just in time for quitting time on the drain field. Only two more tile lines left. Not sure if they can work today since the soils is now....wet. Seems wet....is bad, very very bad.

I worked on re-arranging some hot wire lines yesterday. Ever try and get a grounding rod out of the ground? Man I had to break out the post hole digger on a few. Not good. Ended well. fence is re-done.

Hope all have a good day today, those in need, get healthy and heal.

Be safe.
