Good morning!!!!

   / Good morning!!!! #99,811  
It was 27ー this morning and snowing.

oh my, I just came in from painting the porch in 93+ degrees, sweat through two sets of clothes, am totally drained.
Drinking water and sports drinks steadily.
A snowball wouldn't last long here...

after a final scrape, mopped the deck, then mowed lawn for two hours while that dried, came back and painted. Thankfully this Valspar oil paint
is not very thick, yet covers well. But gosh, no wonder the industry went to latex.

while mowing was given the delightful vision of a vulture pulling the intestines out of racoon that hadn't made it across the road, pulled about two feet out, thought that was a nice lunch and off it flew. Gross. I had really hoped some larger critter would have taken the other dead bird away but I finally had to get a pitchfork and give it the heave across into the field. Where a deer carcass was also smelling.
Bird body was at least 18 inches long, one big bird, but apparently a bigger bumper.

84 deg this afternoon mostly sunny sky's. Wife and I took what looks like last warm weather pontoon ride around the lake weather man said temps finally dropping for the year 50's and 60's to follow.
Drew you and my wife are alike can't go with out amazon. I'm always saying I could have gone to the store for that and we don't need ant more cardboard.
Thomas with all the goodbyes there will be lots of good memories. Enjoy
CWB keep the snow in Wyoming
Roy chest pressure and jaw pain is a classic sign. You do not need to have any of the others. I had chest pressure and shoulder pain with a little light headedness passed in 15 min or so and headed off to work. At my wife's insistence I send to see my Dr during lunch, cardiogram B/P were all great with history of hiatal hernia doc figured that's what it was. 2 weeks later I was flat on my back in a cardiac lab with 3 completely blocked arteries. That was over 18 years ago. I share this with you to encourage you to do a follow up with a cardiologist and have a good workup. A stress test isn't that bad.

Did you know that burning a piece of cardboard releases precisely the same amount of CO2 into the atmosphere as letting it biodegrade on the ground (or in a landfill)? Fire just works quicker, is all.

And if, instead of ordering from Amazon, you got in your truck and drove to a brick'n'mortar store, like in the old days, would that make you an even bigger eco-hog? Prolly not, 'cause UPS, FedEx, and the PO have their delivery routes figured out so they make the deliveries in the shortest time for the lowest cost, which includes the cost of the fuel they burn.

So recycle your cardboard, or burn it, it doesn't make any difference from an environmental standpoint, and, if it's free, keep using one and two day Amazon delivery. :2cents:

Yep, it’s called oxidation, whether by rust, rot or fire.

it's hard to believe Fedex would hire such a dunce.
Two red cones up blocking my front porch.
Nope, just chuck the package in the middle of the wet paint.
GRRRRRRRR

wait to you see it tomorrow after it is painted, the shine is nice.
except for one spot now...

Currently 95 with heat index of 102, a bit warm for 10/2.

tomorrow's forecast is 96 here, amazing...and then it will all cool off.
no snow for Toppop, none for me either...

We passed on the travel trailer, nice but not my thing. I’m looking for a 2 br condo or small house on the old part of the island. We have an appointment on Friday to see a few.

I’d be sorely tempted to report it. Likely driver could smell the wet paint.
