28 right now...high in the mid-50's today. It's been a cool Spring so far, with the exception of a couple days above 60.

Dentist appointment on Monday went OK...I go back this afternoon for fitting the permanent dentures....then again next Monday (11 May) if any adjustments are needed.

Drew, I do hope you're feeling better! Good luck with the house viewing...I looked at the ad....really nice place!

Good morning, another cloudless day ahead.

I ventured out yesterday evening for the first time in over a month, just a few miles to get some petrol. Compared to driving a tractor, it seemed strange to be going so fast - 30 mph ! Like the last time, I saw many people on bikes, in fact far more were out walking and riding than were driving a car.

So sorry to hear you are having a rough time Drew. Hope the docs soon get you sorted and they find a medical genie to grant your wish for normal poop.

Ken, 6 hours of chipping sounds a serious workout and a lot of mulch. Did you win the contract to keep Don supplied ?

RNG, incredible that anyone would want to put combustible mulch and timber decking around a house in your area. They must be blessed with an abundance of optimism.

BEF, what a lovely plot of land you live on.

Good morning, the temp is 31ｰF and going up to 52. Wind NE 6 mph. Sunny!

I got a 7 module training session yesterday on the policies and procedures of my company, the only way to pass was to get 100%. This is thanks to covid 19 and the no more than gatherings of 5 people. There are 23 drivers + Manager + dispatcher and time keeper. This is normally a two day deal when we can gather together. The good thing doing it electronically is that I don't get to drive south for 3.5 hours and live in a motel room for two days. For me it is win, win.
I do get paid for doing it, so I win that way too.
This coming November I will have been there 35 years and attended 33 orientation meetings.

This morning I am calling my supplier and see where my new roller is at.

The 'back to work' countdown is on. 12 days of freedom left.


Have a safe and healthy day all

Good morning! Cooler this morning after the rainless cold front blew in. 61˚F heading to the mid 80s. North wind at 6mph.

Up early as we are trying to work in the last few days of cool morning temperatures at the River Ranch Park liberating Oak trees. New parts for the muffler that vibrated off the chainsaw have been installed and I can now be in the lead group instead of the pulling cut brush out group. There is a certain amount of satisfaction in cutting out the invasive water hogging cedar trees under the Oaks.

Yesterday I missed the first neighborhood FireWise clearing, after the partial all-clear from the Pandemic, because I was busy spreading combustible mulch.
Actually I just distributed mulch to 10 piles around the 250 gardens. it will then be taken by wheel barrow to the mulch the 3' walkways in-between the gardens to deter weed growth.

The Governor was on TV yesterday easing some more restrictions after his charts showed that the curve of active cases flat and more people recovering and only a fraction of the hospital beds occupied. He also released a testing location website map of hundreds of locations in Texas with many not requiring a doctors referral.

51 and wet, going to 61.

I enjoyed your drone videos, RNG and BEF. Been too wet to fly here, except for the birds...they seem to be going crazy. New additions: a pair of red-headed woodpeckers.

We spent too much time watching the baby chipmunks on the porch yesterday. I took Coco for a hike at the forest park and saw one of the trainers I know from the YMCA where I go. He says they got laid off fairly quickly so they could collect unemployment. I told him I was still paying my monthly membership fee as sort of a contribution...hoping they wouldn't have to lay off everyone. They have been closed just short of 2 months and may have 2 more to go before opening.

Probably do a dump run and diesel can fill up among other things outside where wet grass won't interfere.
