still fairly calm here, but storm is coming inland in NC and will get Eastern VA and MD on way up

Since wind is ENE turning to NE, and I am facing the ocean with front of rv, wind will be mostly in front of me. Maybe a little in the lee of the dunes, but I doubt much.

I've seen a bunch of folks leave. Looks like about 2/3 full here with lots of open transient spots.

Cleared out my Summer Garden and the compost dumpster was full. Not a problem just throw the plants in the tractor loader and smash everything down.
The dumpster is behind the steering wheel in the pic. Went ahead and mashed down the other two dumpsters.
Load in pic is half of what I pulled.

I just got the dreaded call...I go back to work tomorrow at noon. Bobtail up to the bay (1 hour) and pin my wagons and circle check (1 hour) load yet another hour and ride part way there to a town called Britt, ON.
On the west side of Sturgeon Falls, ON there is a Mennonite restaurant that puts up a reasonably priced meal and they have lots of truck parking.
This will be my last post until after my summer work is finished.

Evening to all;
Kind of an interesting day for me. My contractor for the house remodels has been absent the last few days, been getting hit or miss if he's going to show up. But they showed today and we worked on the trim details and prepping the window frames for trimming, finally got the details decided and started cutting. All the trim and siding is going to be James Hardi cement board as was the soffit and fascia. Them carpenter bee's will have to find another structure to destroy. Damn there goes my little shop.

Pricing out drip edges and trim it was hard to find and expensive so I went and bought a used Tapco 10 ft trim brake, spent the morning working with some small pieces of plain flashing I had to get used to it, then spent the afternoon cutting the roll of white trim down to 8" strips then hemming them and breaking them for much of the trim. Guess I'll start on the gray trim pieces tomorrow. Sure not a professional, but me and you tube can sure turn out some simple trim pieces. Not to bad for an old man with a new tool.

Everyone stay safe and healthy if possible.

Have not seen any around here. But if it was it would be gone after not being hit by the first shot. Sounded like full magazine was cycled through the gun
They do travel in packs…
