good morning all
a warm 72 going up to a hot 94 today

Mostly, you got your money's worth out of that tire.
I bet the pavement temps where you are really cook those tires

no plans for today, think I'll take it easy in the heat
going to dream of floating in Don's pool this afternoon

Good morning, the low is 66 and going up to 84°F Wind W 5 mph. Sunny & hot! We are under a heat warning. Hotter tomorrow.

When it gets really hot upstairs, we turn on the furnace fan, the cold air return duct in the basement is open year round. The basement stays about 65° steadily, so in the summer we blow the cooler air upstairs during the day and evening.

It is going to be too wet to do much of anything other than nip off the stumps at ground level today.

Mostly, the picture of your tire reminded me that Juniors trike needs 3 new tires. His are pretty bald. Canadian Tire here I come. Online only.

Have a safe day all

I need to run and get gas for the ZTR then try and cut some of the "hay" around the house. It rained yesterday afternoon so the grass is probably still wet. The humidity is sky-high so I may take the day off too. Try to stay hydrated if you work outside today.

good morning, 68 going to 92 Our location is usually 5 to 6 degrees cooler than the surrounding area due to higher elevation

The room that I am working on in the barn is also cooler due to the 3 ft plus stone walls

Mowed a couple of areas yesterday and weeded a flower bed that was overgrown. Set an appointment with a service to get the low hanging branches trimmed back along the 1000 ft driveway.

More mowing and weeding is likely on the agenda again.

I never got to picking last of romaine lettuce so headed out now before it gets too hot and lettuce is still a little perky.
by end of hot day it's not looking so good
big salad tonight for sure

Good Morning,
Vt, 66 to start going to 84 or so depending on how long the sun is out this afternoon. Hopefully the morning rain will stop so I can mow the lawn before we leave tomorrow. I bush hogged the field on the right side of the DW yesterday morning and would like to get the other side done today but I’m guessing that won’t happen. That’s another 3 1/2 hours of mowing.

Mostly, that tire looks pretty well done . You got your moneys worth there.

Maybe another cruise on the pontoon boat this afternoon if it clears up and dries out.

Went out with our friends last night for dinner, about a half hour north of here on Lake Bomoseen.

Guess that’s it for now, hope all stay cool and hydrated

One of Hollys nurses quit yesterday. Came to take over for other nurse big production walked out in screaming match. Her boyfriend was helping me outside both left.

Morning all, 79 going to 94 and sunny.
So yesterday ended up being a lot more work than anticipated.
Started by refinishing Pool bar and in between coats doing some lawn mowing.

When I went to mow the lower field, the whole path was covered in a fallen maple that split about 20 feet up.
It also was covering 3 of the newly planted and replanted trees!
So after working in the heat for 4 hours, got out the pole saw and slowly cut the maple branches around where the new trees are, expecting the worst.
So tree one, got branches cut, cage was at 45 degrees, tree fine.
Tree two, cage mushed a bit, tree damaged, but is one I don't really care about.
Tree Three is my new apple tree, it was completely covered by branches.
cut around the tips, then a few feet in, until I saw the very mangled cage.
Finished cutting now that I knew where to cut to take the pressure off the cage.
And, Apple tree in one piece !
Unbent the cage and cut up the rest of the branches. The bigger stuff can wait for the chainsaw.

So now 7 hours in at 90degrees , completely wiped out, got cleaned up and went to dinner at the newish Thai place in town.

Got home and after about an hour of resting and watching a movie, cable went down again.
So we went out back and I lit the firepit, and we sat out there with the dog watching the fire.

Cable came back up a few minutes ago.

Mostly, how old was that tire ?

Be well,
plastic scraper to 40 grit to 80 grit to 120 to 220 and then wiped clean. The old Epiphanes really did not work well at absorbing in. Trying cheaper polyurethane this time

How to stain when it's super hot, umbrellas worked great. Bar looks good, will see how it fares this winter.

Unexpected tree to clean up, lots of work, but happy with M18 pole saw and the apple tree survived being under hundreds of pounds of maple branches somehow.

Our solution to cable being down,
