Great quality! I can see those ladies skinny dipping over by that red boat.

Do they live on them year round?

74 going to 94...hit 95 yesterday. Stayed inside much of the middle of the day, partially due to the heat, and partially recuperating from out mountain hike .

Hope I didn't make anybody go look for the red boat - I was kidding.

Poured first cup of coffee. 58ｰ with clear skies this morning. Heading to 75ｰ with mostly sunny skies. Got no rain. Cut the lawn for the last time today. Son and grandson are going take over that job for a couple of weeks. Relax and watch NASCAR in afternoon.
Thanks all for the well wishes. I had the same surgery done on left side in 2000. After 2 surgery's and 7 weeks of recovery I was able to go back to work on very light duty. I am hoping for a better results this time. Good part is I was able to spend time and research buying a new Kubota tractor. I joined the original Kubota forum that became TBN during my recovery. Still have the tractor. But less than 500 hours on it. That's another story. I have put close to 1000 hours on a B2910 at my place.
RNG, like your pictures. I have a couple of camera's that can do those kind of pictures. But alas my iPhone 6 gets much more use.
Drew, give your body some rest. Being sore all the time is no fun.
RS, digging 540' of trench would be a good days work with my B2910's BH.
Good Morning All.

I hope your surgery goes well. Are they using mesh, or doing it with a laparoscope? I had one repaired about 15 years ago, and now it is torn again much worse. I've been delaying surgery "until I get that one more project complete" but need to go. You've got me thinking seriously.

If weather holds good might take ride over to Lacoina Bike Week this afternoon,this morning fuel run for pickup and tractor other than that take the day as it comes.

When a hummer gets trapped in a garage, close the door when dark, turn out all lights, and wait an hour.
The hummer will relax and sit on the floor.
Take your flashlight and locate him and gently pick him up in your cupped hand and release him outside.

This has worked for me several times. They don't seem to mind being picked up

Great idea, thank you. I'll try this next time.

very hot day, already 75 going to 96 today, so heat index should be triple digits. Summertime for sure.
Too hot for me, will find something to do inside this afternoon.
After breakfast going out to pick another load of string beans. Still no tomatoes, greenies on the vine but not doing a lot.
I think our past rain and this heat wave should get them ripe. At last look I think I have over a hundred cucumber flowers. Yikes, I think I'd better learn
how to pickle. I adore dill pickles so maybe it's time to put some up. What I really need is a bunch of that garlic I planted; the garlic shoots look pretty anemic actually; they won't be ready until July at least but I think I'm pulling one up to see what's going on. Half my onions went soft, no idea why.

Good morning all. On my phone today. Feels like a truck has hit me 4 or 5 times. Didn't get the license #. Still have a 24'. Trailer in the drive mostly full.
Oh I can't remember who it was hiking but the way it is said is"They were run off the drive ". Lots of very hard feelings about that even today.
Thanks for the well wishes. Ed

57 right now...not going to get much warmer as 58 is the predicted high. I'm really enjoying this cooler weather!
Sunny right now, but overcast in in the forecast...no rain though.
Pretty wet from yesterday's rain. Once it dries up, maybe some more weed trimming, or mow the field...or a bit of both.

BTW, watched an old (1950) British Navy movie called "Morning Departure" last night. It's about a sub on the bottom of the sea and the rescue attempts to bring the men out. Mostly about the men inside the ship, so it's more talking than action, but engrossing, nevertheless. Free on YouTube...

70 this morning and headed to 96 today. Currently 75.

Think I'll go side dress the corn and till that in while the dew is on. Then it's put the rake back on the tractor and make a 8-9 mile road trip and rake up about 100 bales of hay. Hopefully as that's dads estimates. I've yet to see the field.

Hauled in 52 bales of hay yesterday in 4 loads. Got the shed filled and started stacking for the tarp. That was a learning experience. Only restacked the first pyramid a half a dozen times before I got it to stay. It's a 3 2 1 stack. A lot of weight up high. The Kubota had an easier time reaching the top bale than I thought she would. Will hit 200 hours on that machine today. It's 6 months old. Then went to buddies place and setup his new computers for his chicken coops. He took a lightning strike about 2 weeks ago. Birds go back in next week. Lost 3 computers and was lucky his birds left like 4 days prior so he was empty at the time.

RNG nice pictures. Becareful with that zoom. Someone could say you're spying.

Drew. I understand what you mean about the constant pain. My neck been on the fritz since we started this marathon hay season. Really need it to rain so I can get off tractor for a few days. I think it's the constant jarring.

81 high of 94 today very humid and I'm afraid the rest of the summer is going to be worse

Took a trip yesterday just wife and I to Vienna Va we both had a ball but made for a long day left at 8:30 yesterday morning and got back last night at 12:30. Had dinner at a really good Restrauant last night in Staunton. Grass mowing today back to work tomorrow
