68°F and .16 inches rain.
The wetness won yesterday. Finally dry enough early afternoon only to have skies do another dump just enough to soak me before I could get back to tractorshed. Gave up
Plan remains to resume mowing today.
Scotty, hope those stones pass. Ouch
Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

75F and cloudy @ 12:30, which is the predicted high for the day. Showers off to the north and west which are headed this way.
Checking several LWS in our immediate area on WU shows they are reporting around an inch of rain in the last 24 hours. I wouldn't be surprised if we had actually gotten more, given the torrential downpours we experienced. Need to get that rain gauge up.
Just before The Woman arrived last night to pick me up for our dinner outing another groundhog appeared, this time in the yard on the east side of the house. It was an adult.
So I grabbed the 12 gauge and attempted to open the window in the bedroom @ the northeast corner of the house. That spooked it ... and it scurried off into the woods towards the barn.
Wasn't long before the temptation of that tasty grass drew it back out though. I was able to get the window open and get a shot off. Think I wounded it but it was still able to dash into the woods over towards the barn. Will have to see if it expires and starts stinkin'...
Woman arrived just after that and we headed off to Steak-N-Shake down in Canton for dinner as I was craving a 'Frisco Melt and some of their chili.
Wow ... has that place ever changed.
You have to place your order at a electronic terminal as you go in ... no waiters/waitresses come to your table to take your order ... or serve it for that matter.
Silverware all gone ... replaced with plastic utensils.
Staff was probably half of what it typically would be (4 people maybe vs maybe 8)
Place was mostly empty.
Can't say I was too happy about any of that ... but The Woman commented that the food was still good.
After dinner we headed back home and made it before the line of storms hit.
More torrential downpours and another Tornado Warning issued, again for Cuyahoga Falls/northern Summit County.
I fell asleep on the couch during NOVA, woke back around 23:00. Had a hard time falling back asleep so headed out to the garage and puttered around until around 3 AM.
Woman was up and down as well, having indigestion.
Not sure what all on agenda for the rest of the day.
50% chance of thunderstorms until around 2 PM, then tapering off into the teens for the rest of the day. Looks like a little cool front may be coming in.
I do have the seed mixed to refill the tube feeders so will probably do that at some point, along with the hopper feeder.
Need to check plants on back shelves to make sure nothing is drowning, possibly some planting involved there ... depending on wet it is.
Beyond that see what else comes up.
Happy 83rd to Ron !
Hope everyone is having a decent Thursday.

Yes ... the have the right to live peacefully anywhere they want on our property that isn't under a building or man-made structure or in the gardens.
This comes with a provision that tunneling is prohibited along any underground piping, whether it be water, electrical, sewage or drain lines.
Of course ... but they didn't listen.
We aim to please.
Got to keep the clean up crew happy.
So will the foundation of our house.

I've been using that No. 4 shot that Lou recommended - Winchester Super X - seems to be doing the job ... provided my aim is good.
Hope the heat/humidity eases up and your medieval torture session goes well.

65F, breezy, with showers in the vicinity. It appears that the cool front has moved through.
Did get the hopper, both tube feeders and both suet feeders refilled, also scattered some seeds for the ground feeders while dodging the raindrops. Found another box of suet cakes.
No work likely in the garden today.
I did plant a couple of "Black Magic" Elephant Ear bulbs in pots that we missed getting planted last year. Bulbs seemed firm so I figured I'd give 'em a shot. Woman will be impressed if they end up doing anything.
Also have some sweet potatoes from last year that seem firm so will give it a shot getting those started.
Seven of the winter squash/pumpkin seeds planted in pots in the greenhouse have sprouted.
More clean up/organizing in the garage, there is now a path to pegboard by the man door.
Working on a Menards order, might go down and pick that up this evening.

Divorced parents, brother, aunt, uncle, cousins.
He looked to me more as his father figure than the real thing.
Missing his morning calls checking in on how I'm doing.
He was always willing to do things for me when I was sick etc.

Great for bundles of shingles, not so good for a condensing unit.
