Good morning!!!!

[riptides]

Was 69 out this AM when I started. Heading to low 90's. Calling it a day and going up the road for beer and pizza.
Set more ground hog traps this AM.
Have a great day all. Good fortunes in whatever you do today.

that is a very cool proof.

I had fun watching this:
LA Speed Check - YouTube
if you are into planes, and sometimes Youtube "suggests" stuff to me, since I watch videos of planes landing in foreign lands. Kind of a fun way to travel...and once there you can watch a Youtube video of a ride looking out a country's train window, and then if you want to stop and look around, it's amazing how many foreign cities have detailed Google Maps pics. They fuzz out the faces in the pictures, which is good, but you are right there. In many cases remarkable third world squalor and all.

It was a nice day today, got the fruit orchard mowed this afternoon, wanted to try out the JD garden tractor after I got it back from dealer, worked great.
One nice apple tree is dying and I have no idea why.

Cooked a t bone steak for dinner, ate half of it, after having meat ball parm for lunch at nice Italian restaurant in town, I'm on meat overload.
Steak was great, got lucky and cooked it right.
I bought a beautiful made in NC SS propane grill plumbed into my big outside tank and it doesn't cook worth a darn.
Just doesn't get hot enough to sear a steak.
Now if I had cooked that same steak on a charcoal grill, probably would have eaten the whole thing.

Chopped up a lot of tomatoes today, going to work on a nice red sauce tomorrow. The nice ones go in the bags
for the food pantry, I get the cracked ones, bug bit ones, soft ones, all the rejects. Sharp knife and all the good parts almost
filled a really big tupperware.

Want to make a meatless sauce, will be looking for ways to enrich the flavor, like a can of mixed greens.
That stuff in my meat loaf is wonderful, should be good in a slow cooked sauce also.
I'm not brave enough to try okra in it. But I might pour the red sauce over
baked cornmeal coated okra. Or some light breading. I still haven't eaten my own okra, need to
build up some courage here.

now that was a big tractor up close to me yesterday at dealer

two tiny little cantaloupe tasted yummy, they had issues...

Great post Drew.

In late fall of ‘69 we were on finals at Kadena (Okinawa), had wheels down, when ATC advised us to go around because Blackbird was behind us.

Our plane sheltered in same secure hanger with Blackbird.

The BB guys took the four of us out for dinner in Chatan that night. And .... they paid.
