Good (Saturday) morning. Another frosty overnight Low of -3.1C and it's presently warmed up to 10.3C (predicted High of 13C). Again, it's clear and calm.

What with the overnight 'cold snap' I've been having for the past few days, I was keeping an 'ear' on my tank pumps... and, sure enough, the small 'shed tank' pump was working overtime. Bugger. I shut the pump off. The copper pipe from the pump to the spigot had well & truly burst and I lost practically the whole 5k litres. It's not a disaster as I put the horse trough onto the 'house tank'. I remembered, a couple of hours later, to also shut the tank valve off.

I'll contact my plumber on Monday as, I suspect, I won't have been the only one in the area to need a burst pipe repair and mine isn't a priority. Rain is predicted this Tuesday/Wednesday.

That's about it, take care all.

Poured first cup of coffee. 62° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 78° with a mix of sun and clouds. Got grass mowed yesterday in between burst of rain. .19" total for the day. SSQA project is done. Except for painting. Hope to get that done today. Then clean up the mess I have made in shop and pole barn.

Good morning all,
74° now highs in the upper 80’s low 90’s today and cloudy and dew points in the mid 70’s again. Winds SSW 5-10 mph, with scattered thunderstorms later this afternoon. (need rain)

No real plans for today, water the garden, the usual dump run and then just putter around.

Enjoy your day everyone
Stay safe and healthy

good morning all
windows all fogged up, 77 out now going to 96..Yuk.
looks like another afternoon of hiding in a/c but this morning will get the garage cleaned
out with 14 yo helper, nephew's son. I'm going over to pick him up at 9am.
I expect to get pretty sweaty out there, take my brother's grandson home and then back to a shower
and cooling off.

it's always fun to hear how Wagtail is freezing while we sweat buckets

Good Morning
79° with 94% humidity already, expecting the middle 90’s this afternoon. Not gonna be nice for anything outdoors.

Yesterday didn’t yield a lot of progress on the old folks home, still plugging away on the plumbing.

I need to map out the remaining trenches for the propane and generator feed to the transfer switch. Unfortunately, I’ve got to go through a minefield of previously buried underground utilities. Most are deeper than I need to go, which will help some. We will see what I accomplish today.

Good Morning,
Vt, 70 to start going to 81 or so. Raining now but some clearing later morning or early afternoon!

To help cool off. (not you Wagtail)
Even in winter they attack!

NHBX, I think we all needed that picture after the last few days ! Talk about the 3 H’s !! Quite a rough stretch with the weather!
If the weather clears later we will go back out on the boat and tmrw the crew is leaving! Both of our sons and DIL’s are going out to dinner together tonite so we have all the kiddos until they get back ! 😳 Hopefully they won’t be too late ! 😉

Maybe I can get a little shop time in this morning !

Hope all have a great Saturday! 🙏

do not hit anything and land on the other side of the River..........

do you have a metal detector? I can lend you one but I think
it only works on pop tabs...

already worked up a sweat out there, time to locate my sweatbands
if salty sweat gets in my eyes, more than unpleasant
need to take a box fan out to garage, get the air moving in there.
everything comes out this morning, all the stuff that has fallen behind something else will
show up, one hopes.
but with the energy of a motivated 14 year old, my garage floor will once again be clean.
And ready for my car this winter.

first I have to order that mower shed. After spending two grand on teeth, wish I had spent it on that... :rolleyes:

Great pix!!

Forecast today is 108F. Yikes. Record breaking temperatures.

I'm flood irrigating today so that will help a little -- seems like lots of people here have lots of heat.

Everyone have a great day!!
