Good evening all. 63ºF for the start, mostly clear sky, light breeze. Light wind, sky remained mostly clear, and high temp was 91ºF. Made coffee to start day, Puttered till A/C guy showed up which was soon. Problem was compressor side of starter condenser. All working fine now. Went for 30 mile bike ride, lunch. pulled sandburrs, nap, and start getting ready for tomorrow's ride in Bonham.
Ron hope you got to mow today. Glad groceries went well. Sedums look good.
Billy thanks for sharing graphic from electric company. Sorry about rate increase. Thanks for hike pics, never seen Parrot on a hike before.

Phil congrats on another year of retirement. Sounds like you got a lot done. Nice you got some good sleep. Hope you got to shop today.
Buppies hope truck was ready today prayers sent.
Drew hope you are enjoying the cool weather, Texas will be a mite warmer. Sorry to hear about back hurting. Thanks for info on the yellow machine.
Don hope PT went well. Thanks for grocery shelf report. Do you have a place to recycle battery? Have a bunch of Covid tests on the shelf from earlier this year.
Drew nice table fix.
Ken glad pool stuff is stowed. Hope trip to NYC was fruitful. Sorry deer eating the sedum.
Dennis glad you were able to get water, but sorry no TP. Talking heads say TP not affected by dock strike. Hope the relief trucks get there soon.
Paul siding looks great, what do you finish it with? Hope you got the mowing done.
Scott(vt) wow that surcharge is about half your power bill. Hope winter prep goes well.
Buppies sorry about bill increase.
Lou I suspect they started at 5 feet wide and then as new canals were made, making them wider as built.
Ted interesting about PT and the delayed reaction. Hope Costco run went well.
Plowhog last I heard about the vaccine is that you may get Covid but will be less severe than if no vaccine/booster. When I had influenza, was bed ridden for three days, ran fever for a week, was off practice for another week.
Frits hope you find visitor interesting.
Dennis glad you got meds, sorry about to wet to mow. thanks for the then and now pics of canal.
Scott(vt) lock and dam on Mississippi close by at Winfield. Alton and Chain of Rocks. Watch barges go through was involved because normal tow size larger than lock could handle.
Scott(vt) nice Farmall "A"
David sorry about pin. Glad another section mowed. Hope you can sneak pin in without removing mowing deck.
Dennis I have never seen a bag shortage at Walmart! Nice light house, any of them still in use?
Drew glade you made it to Golden. Hope nap helped. Nice pics

Nice pics of Salida as well

Dennis nice landscape crew.
Buppies glad truck back and better than you thought.
Randy(wag) Hope the wine is good. Nice you are getting more rain.
Drew you will have to ask lot of ways to load sweet potato. Texas fries will be hotter than normal fries could have cayenne or jalapeno on them. Cowboy beans will have ham and/or bacon plus other spices, usually not hot. Not sure about Texas salad.
Dew hope you lost weight
