Good morning TBN!!
56 again this morning with a little cloud cover. Should burn off and leave partly cloudy in low 80s.

Productive day yesterday although have sore legs and back from working under the house for a few hours. I got the Instant Hot water tank flush valves installed. First time working with PEX. Went well and decide I like it. Beats sweating copper especially on wet pipes. Tick another item off the always growing list.
Rest of the day watching some TV and entertaining the dog.
Agenda today so far is unknown.
May put my truck on the lift and change the oil and check the breaks. Maybe not :)
Meanwhile...

Time for a second cup
Everyone have a great and safe day!!

Good morning! 77˚F heading to 100˚ no rain for today, we did get a brief shower yesterday 0.23" was welcomed. Still waiting for cooler weather down here.

While cutting a root under a wobbly paver yesterday I nicked an irrigation line. got it fixed after a lot of digging.

Also got my battery power pole pruner yesterday and it works as advertised. Pics later.

I can see that pole pruner of Don's getting borrowed by his neighbors in a hurry.
Say, while you have that out, could you??
very handy tool

I gave my new Makita string trimmer a workout yesterday, worked nicely, quieter actually on low
power setting. Two lines instead of one sure works better.

Good Morning,
Ct, 50 to start going to 74, with clear skies today.

Worked a half day yesterday, got home and cleaned all the dried leaves falling into the pool. Then went to a local state park and got another activation in. Got home in time to greet one of my grandsons at the bus stop.

Will pack up my truck later this morning for trip back up to Vermont, looks lukewarm a cooler weekend. Oldest son and family will be coming up Friday night after everyone is out of school.

Plan on bringing my portable POTA gear with me and if I get a break will try to do an activation of Lake St. Catherine state park.

Hoping everyone is enjoying the cooler fall weather.

Hope all have a blessed Thursday 🙏
That is a nice park. My wifes family has a family reunion there most years, it got rained out this year. We have only gone to two of them in the last dozen years.

We had 46° yesterday morning, lowest for the month. I love it.

I’m guessing a fox.
Just read recently that Delaware was now the 49th state to have a coyote population, with Hawaii being the lone holdout.

Farmers are against hunting them as they help with the deer population.

Now we have those stupid 'smart meters' and no reason for them to be on the property at all. Suits me just fine. Yes I am anti-social. I like my solitude and privacy.
Yes, but the smart meters can be dumb. Just had a $300 credit to my account after they found out that the meter was reading for 5PSI instead of 2PSI. But it took 2 months and about 30 calls, an hour each call, to get it straight.

Good morning, the low is 53 and going to a high of 57°F. Wind NNW 9 mph. 30% chance of showers. Been raining all night.

I'm not sure I will be doing anything productive today.

Don, my neighbour had that problem too. Meter was reading high. That was about 5 years ago. she got it sorted with a new meter.

Have a safe day all

good morning, 49 was low this morning 76 later today and sunny

Mowed grass on the big field with the ZT. Used the 3 inch setting. Last time was mowed at 4 inches because it was too long. Mowing side to side makes it parallel to the bumps left over from farm days and able to run at full speed. 31 hp diesel power

Several things pending that I may work on

Wow.....

Around here they shoot them on sight. Livestock issues.

Caught this one hunting for foxes a little while back.
