Good morning!!!!

[Eric Salop]

Almost perfectly still outside at the moment, with mist blurring the outline of distant trees.

After a couple of hours in a hay field, trying to keep on top of the ragwort, I took a much needed break under an old oak. A grey squirrel paused on his assent of the tree trunk, eyed me up for a few seconds, then carried on up and out of sight. It didn't take long before I heard it disturb a bird. The assault went on for several minutes until finally a magpie flew out and the squirrel was left to gorge itself on the contents of the nest. No doubt that magpie has done the same thing in the past to smaller songbirds.

If nature wasn't so content with what we call cruelty, by now it would have found a way to for trees to produce nuts and berries all year round that taste even better than chicken (or Ted's pork roll ).

Good morning. 1st cup of coffee is gone, time for another.

66 now, 82 or so later with some rain. Weekend weather was wonderful. Got a lot of outside work done. Couldn稚 mow some of the property since it is still too damp.

Another work week is about to start.

Everyone who is under the weather, injured, etc, get well soon.

Have a safe and good day

64 going to 90.

Yeah, Eric. Pom???

Bunyip, I had to look up Tibetan spaniels. I bet yours is fun.

We went hiking as a group in the woods (bears' new home) yesterday and found a few more downed trees from the storm last week. So I've got a couple day's work once the dying leaves dry out the trees, and cooler weather arrives. No bear sightings yesterday.

Coffee is done brewing. 63° with rain this morning. Heading to 78° with thunderstorms. Got a couple of hours spent weeding flower garden decided to pull everything out and start over. Not enough flowers worth saving. Sprayed area with roundup. Will till it in a couple of weeks. Today I will get drive cleaned on old computer and ship it back to Costco. No other plans.

Eric, messing with a mans tools. :thumbdown:

Kyle, you do not have a water for the chickens? Well besides the bird bath.
Thomas, Take an easy roll back to work.

Drew, someone stole your Jaguar with the rattle that could not be found?

good Monday morning all. A nice day here, going to be warm and sunny.
I've been packaging tomatoes, have four gallon ziplocs full of almost ripe tomatoes, hope they
survive in food pantry's cooler til tomorrow. Big week for veggies, tomatoes, okra, green peppers, squash all getting
boxed up. Headed out to pick the green peppers now, wanted them as big as possible.
Plus I made up the last case of my patriotic potatoes, little bags of red, white and blue potatoes for patriotic potato salad.

Looking forward to tomorrow, carpenter coming to put in fourteen foot long counter top in garden shed, replace the rotten one in there, plus put in a new sink and faucet.
Had to wait until I was done in there, so I'll have job this afternoon moving everything off the counter so they can work. Am using whatever he has in hand, told him white was fine. Considered covering it in stainless but formica will work fine and look hugely better than what's in there.

Pom; had to hunt for that and it's wonderful. Look at all the nice names we can call Eric!
