54° right now...feels really good with a with the bedroom window open. High around 80°

Wifey and stepdaughter should be in Florida, but haven't heard from them...that's not too untypical.

Margeaux is doing great...no chewing on anything or stealing clothes out of the hamper. It's taken her a while to settle in, but she's getting there.

I need to make a dump run...that'll be today or tomorrow.

More later, I reckon...actually I just got up this early to take a pee...figured I'd read TBN. Back to bed now as it's 0329 here

Indeed going to be nice summer day with blue sky slight breeze low humidity near 80F,good day for you trim mow grind brush Roy....naaa kick back put your feet up watch good old movie and later on you and Marqeaux have good dinner both deserve it.

If you like to be scared you might like Dr. Greg Poland's latest update from the Mayo clinic on YouTube.

Take care.

thanks Roy. I've been learning to hold my breath when walking too close to others, like in store aisle
so you are footloose and fancy free this weekend? What kind of trouble can you get into Roy?

Plenty, if I want to!!!
I have a bottle of whiskey and a case of beer...but I also have to care for sweet Margeaux and yard details...as well as the usual dish washing, clothes in the wash...all that.
Oh yeah...and don't forget the dump run!!

This is sweet...

Morning all, only going up to 86, but they said 89 yesterday but was over 90.
Got about a 1/8th of the back deck powerwashed. Will try to finish up today.

LS - I hope they find an answer soon, may need second set of Dr. eyes on this.

wngsprd - hope the wife gets some relief and they find out a fix for her.

Picked the first of the blackberries.


On the way (Amalfi) and in Positano:

my first clone Makita battery has not burned the house down, the one I use in my Makita house vac.
So....now I see a well rated 9amp version. Power to the people.
That should do nicely with my leaf blower.

I wonder, on the chain saw, which takes two batteries, would it confuse the electronics somehow if I combined a 9A battery with a 5A?

same battery on Ebay for 19 bucks less and no name. I'm not that brave.

marvelous pics Ken. Not sure if I could learn stern in/Mediterranean mooring.

68°F and partly cloudy this morning, going up to 93° today. Chance for rain on Sunday has increased to 60% now. We sure could use it here.

No mowing last night. It was still 95° when I got home from work, and I'd had enough of that heat for this week. I'll probably just mow the front yard early Saturday morning before it gets too hot.

In lieu of sweating outside, I instead put in some cool time in the studio last night.

Kyle, we're hopeful that the fed involvement will prevent the city prosecutor from following her normal procedure of refusing to charge and releasing criminals so she can spend all her time and effort beating down the morale of the police. Man, don't get me started ...

Scaredychicken, sometimes it seems like the egg washing never stops.

Admitedly, I've never heard of St. Swithin's Day until now, Randy. As this is one of our milder and more typical summer days here, though, I'm all for the concept.

I noticed yesterday that nearby adjacent Madison County has started their oil and chip renewal on some of the country roads near us, check. I'll assume that our county will be right behind them with our roads. They seem to resurface ours every three or four years. Not a fan of the stuff either when it's fresh, but I certainly understand why they use it, and it's fine in the long run.

Good decision!!
There's a lot of bogus batteries on Amazon too...although warranted by EGO if sold through authorized dealers, many are sold by unauthorized sellers...

It’s just too bad they can’t “oil and chip” without getting subsequent traffic covered with the stuff. A bunch of the chips got stuck in the dogs for when I took him for a walk, and he was chewing it out and spitting it on the floor last night. We’ll have to walk him through the bush for his morning dump, and of course get exposed all the mosquitoes and stuff.
