Good morning!!!!

[farmer2009]

73 this morning and headed to 92 today. Thunderstorms possible tomorrow although they keep dropping the chances. Was 90 now 60. Not a good weather pattern we're in, not desperate for rain yet but sure could use an inch.

Have a load of scrap metal to haul off. Also need to move hay. While staying cool.

All this talk of weight loss here and I get a call yesterday that the new life insurance company doesn't like my weight. They want me 30 pounds lighter and for a year. I was just trying to extend coverage. I've still got 12 years on my old policy. I eat 3 meals a day, but I think my weight gain is in the time I eat them. Breakfast 8am or before. Lunch 11-3 whenever I notice the time. Supper is after quitting time lately 10-11. Was at doctor also yesterday and she suggested a sleep study because of the way my throat is shaped. Said I look like someone who has sleep apnea. Wife's all for it. I've always avoided it because sleep apnea and medical cards and CDL's don't jive. CDL is no big deal as I'm farm exempt but still have to have medical card.

Julie. Welcome.

Buckeye nice pictures. Keep them coming.

Good morning! 76˚ heading to 96˚ 0% rain, hot south wind @10mph.

Our Texas magazine - "Texas Monthly" list the top BBQ places in Texas and our little BBQ joint in Lexington Tx got the highest rating, again. The people in town are complaining about the traffic and long lines on Saturday morning (the only time they are open) and there is no BBQ left for the locals.

73F and mostly sunny @ 08:30 ... 50% chance of thunderstorms but later in the day, cooler with the high only supposed to get up to 84F.

Should be able to get all the grass picked up in the front but I do need to run down and grab a couple of gallons of gas for the pickup.

Y'all Texans, and us Carolinian's, have different opinions of what BBQ is!

Already mid 80's before 9 AM, a front is supposed to drop through and cool us off, come on front!

77°F and clear skies this morning, going up to 95° again today, with some potentially severe storms expected later in the day. We could definitely use some rain here.

Stopped at Guitar Center on my way home from work yesterday to pick up a new (to me) guitar. It's an Epiphone Dot Studio, and this "Worn Brown" color has been hard to find. This one's in great shape. Been trying to snag one of these for years. One popped up here in St. Louis a few weeks ago, but got away before I could get to it. This one popped up in Buffalo last week, and didn't get away. Planning to use this for a new project, one that I started a couple years ago but pushed aside.

Ooooh I like that.

In other news, the leaves on my pear trees are turning black and dying. Too too much water in past few weeks. The clay mud holding so much water doesn't help.

54° out on the plains. Had a tbn member message me to drop by his place, but I saw message too late and went further south.

Nice guitar. Hope to be in mid MO by nightfall. Did see a snowball fight yesterday.



Up on wolf creek pass, 10,857 ft. I drove that one fine.


On the way up..

That has been debated plenty enough. They are still impressive. The cows didn't seem to mind them.

Saw this also, I kind of had an anxiety attack driving up that road, my wife drove down.

While the cows don't seem to mind, I don't like to be near them. The sound of the blades whooshing through the air give me headache.

You Carolinians are on your own when it comes to BBQ. While I like it fine, I prefer the TX or KS ways a little bit better. I think the high acidity does it for me.
