Good morning!!!!

High 70's today. Nice weather all week.
I did NOT mow anything this w/e. Hah, I think I set a new TBN record for letting all my grass and pastures go.

And I feel darn good about it.

I have not cut our pastures this year. Too dry. They were overgrazed by the previous owner. We are trying to rehab the damage done. Spraying the Mesquite with Renegade, but otherwise not touching anything. A little rain would help.

Good afternoon. 1630. Mostly cloudy, already cooled off to 88* with 66% humidity. Forecast low is 70* with 20% chance of rain tonight. Fall is in the air.

I took down most of the fence around the garden and mowed everything but the peppers and one tomato plant. Then I tilled the mulch and dead vines. I ate as much melon as I could hold, and picked a few more before I tilled them in. But the rain did a number on them this year. Other than the banana cantaloupe, my melons didn't turn out like I had hoped.

Another day here, raining most of the day. I got a lot of stuff going on, I can't talk about a lot of things.

I went to bed early, at 10pm!
I forced myself to sleep in until 5:15!

I think I managed my first full night's sleep in forever, maybe it will help.

My good friends, I hope all of you have a very Blessed day.
Be well,
David

68 degrees going up to 90 today and 91 tomorrow. Looks like some of that hot Southern air is coming to visit for a couple of days.

hope to have a fun day today. Am picking up my new smaller utility trailer, and then headed to the golf cart place nearby and pick up our "new" golf cart, which hopefully will look new after they are done detailing it. and then I hope to terrorize the neighborhood in the golf cart with my wife yelling her normal "faster faster"...
and then in two weeks we hope to pull both behind the motorhome when we go to Otter Lake in the Poconos. Nadene is about to start a new chemo trial next week so our timing is always up in the air, but after Labor Day I think there will be enough space at any of these places so that we can get in the last minute.

Actually I need to call the rv place and see how they are doing with the motorhome,putting on the extra suspension stabilizers and finishing my punch list of little stuff to fix.

I have to now plan on moving dozens of pieces of farm equipment and "stuff" out of my storage barn into a Public Storage nearby. What a pain. Oh well, at least both tractors won't sit outside like they do now. And I'm hunting for another local farm, putting my feelers out. I bought all this stuff in preparation for having my own retirement farm, and now that we have the motorhome, we can go explore and hopefully find a nice spot to build. But it's hard to get excited about it, or at least with my wife, when we both know that she won't be around to join me. So I guess we go to the Poconos for awhile and hope for a miracle. The doc looked at her yesterday and said she was utterly amazed that Nadene looked as good as she does after going through everything she has. And promptly approved her for the trial. Good thing, we came home much happier. She needs hope, in whatever form it comes.

enough of that, we have our hands full, but so do many of us, and no whining.
Just need to focus on all the good stuff in life, and in that my glass is overflowing.
May yours overflow too, just watch the oj this morning.

Low 90's today, humidity starting to come back in.

I got equipment all over the place, and the guy who is suppose to be cutting, ain't. Next year will be different.

I still have some re-seeding to do, now that all the hand raking is done. Amazing the difference in seed germination between sun and shade areas. The sunny areas, nary a blade of grass. Hey, not complaining, when is the last time anyone tried starting grass in mid-august, in the DC area, from scratch? So I get a do over in spots, large at that.

Made iced coffee this morning. 70° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 93° with a cooling breeze. Off to my mothers place to do exterior power washing and window cleaning. Hope I get it done before the heat gets above 80.
Good Morning All.
