Good morning all

55° now highs in the upper 70’s and sunny, partly cloudy this afternoon and light winds.

Yesterday turned into an energy conservation day. I started out weeding some of the garden but knees went south after 15 minutes. I have used a garden kneeler thingy with extra padding and handles to help get up for a few years, that’s not going work anymore. Maybe try one with the seat and wheels? Sitting isn’t anywhere near as bad as getting stuck kneeling down lol. So that and the pine pollen plugging up my breathing I decided a fresh coffee and a couple of old westerns was in order.

Not sure what today will bring probably more energy conservation.

Enjoy your day everyone
Stay safe and healthy

Morning all, 54 going up to 83. and sunny.

Spent most of yesterday trimming bushes, taking down some stray weeds grass and moving some logs around. Ended up as 6 hours straight work, but finally starting to catch up on all the delays dealing with the dead Ash trees.
Still need to refinish bar, fell another big ash and start milling some planks for friends. Oh, and powerwash the lower deck.

Stay safe and be well,

Scaredy, I think they were 11 cents a plate and yes they are more compostable, within two years. Paper takes a few years longer apparently and is often coated with stuff
you might not want around your veggies. I'll let you know how they work out. Might nibble on one corner too... ;)
Drew the real green comes with the set with includes cups, straws, and utensils. One place setting about $1. Our WFPB group has been considering such for our potlucks and the acceptance is varied. I think we should just stick to our health issues and just concentrate on what goes into the body, others want compostables and some want to bring their own plates and utensils. I like to keep it simple and inexpensive and concentrate on. what goes on the plate. Why save the earth while clogging up arteries.

Good morning! Today begins the 100˚+ days and no rain for the 10 day forecast and possibly beyond. They have called for more trail work this afternoon between 3 and 6pm. Not going to happen for me today I have been to the hospital for IVs twice from heat exhaustion and dehydration. You just can't drink enough water when you pass a certain point and just the sight of water makes you start feel like you are going to throw up, and you start to CRAVE an IV. Some things can wait till Fall or a freak cool 80˚ Summer day.
The grass is dry, no dew, so an early morning mow while it's still below 90˚.

Buppies, I have watched a bunch of those boating videos and it looks to me like the big catamarans handle the waves best but even if I sold my house I couldn't afford one of those beauties.

"pine pollen plugging up my breathing"

NHBX, That's where left over masks might come in handy. Didn't some of the Tractor Boys use Wolf snouts masks when mowing?

69°F and cloudy this morning, going up to 77° today. Expecting some rain through the day, and probably most of this week.

Appreciate all the concern over my absence. Thanks to those who reached out. I'm fine. Just took a little break. I was still lurking, though. Can't get too far behind with you guys.

They do help, right up until they get wet from sweating. I've used N95 masks since long before "that which must not be named". Most of my breathing troubles stem from being a smoker early in my wayward youth and working in some really crappy jobs early on.
