Good morning!!!!

Speaking of flail mowers, Betstco put out a 5% off coupon, and I was thinking about using it to purchase a longer flail mower. Trouble is, they were out of the side shift model I wanted, and wouldn't issue a rain check. Then I found a 20% off coupon they issued back in March, and decided maybe it's better to wait for a better offer!:laughing:

69 and humid going to 82. Rained off and on all night.
Good luck today Roy!
Prayers for all! Stay safe and healthy.

74 outside this AM. Heading to 90's. Waiting for more light, got about an hours worth on the chain saw this AM, cleaning up branches. The RTV will get more work than the three trips to the burn pile. My black walnut shed a branch too. Don't think I can use the wood other than a few pieces for the fireplace. Scared the family last night when they saw all the house siding laying all over the yard. I forgot to tell them I had stacked the siding after I removed it for the front porch work. The pile went- everywhere.
A check on the pool revealed over an inch of rain. We can take that.

Hope all have a good day. Be safe!

Need to pour first cup of coffee. 66° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 80° with partly cloudy skies. Conserving energy day went very well. Dr. visit for me. That should fill the day very well. Was going pick up my Aunt this morning for a few days stay. Already called and canceled this morning not feeling well.

Roy, hope for the best with your test today. No fasting for my test today. Just arrive with a full bladder.

Drew, you got all the boxes filled?

RNG, have you checked out Woodmaxx for a flail mower. They offer all the way up to 88".
While I was looking at Bestco site I noticed Tractor News. Briggs and Stratton has filed for Bankruptcy. 7/20/2020.

Don, good video.

Riptide, hope your siding did not get damaged.

David is the tropical storm going to affect you.

Eric, I like the finished project feeling. Doing the project has good feelings also. But it usually get me thinking, "Well, here's another nice mess you've gotten me into". From Laurel and Hardy.

Kyle, RV's with rear engines have similar problems with plugged radiators. Had it ever been cleaned before.

RS, good plan for the kids.

Everyone be safe an healthy.

Good Morning All.

Somewhat surprisingly got that Hilo section flailed. I usually take 2 days for that area, but had a really good day, just hot and dusty. Of course to be honest there are two sloped areas that would take about another hour, but might forego this time around. The slopes are one side of old cane road and the other a conservation berm. Can only mow by repetitive backing upslope.
Really pleased with the results, first time with flail since left in disarray by the sweet potato farmer. Still a few more rocks to be picked up.

Congrats on getting it done. Surprised with your rainfall that it ever gets dusty.

73 going to 93.

Got the edge of Riptides' storm last evening and got about 0.3" ...all is welcome. I second Rick's endorsement of the EA grapples.

Buppies, condolences on breaking your streak of 90s today.

Ground may be damp enough to mow off the seed stalks on what's left of the grass and weeds today before roasting coffee and then visiting the vet. I need some exercise so may hike while the grass dries.

Roy, I drank an extra cup of coffee for ya...hope all tests well and you get a big meal when done. Shot the .300BLK yet?

Only dilemma is should I start another project to fill my time, or should I try for the novelty of finishing one in less than a year instead ?

Start a NEW project. Always have at least two going.
After the short lived novelty of the congratulations and feeling of accomplishment after finishing a project, the sense of loss to the challenges of obstacles could be overwhelming.

Mostly, you might have to remind the CA of the maintenance and taxes you are saving them yearly.

Good morning! 74˚F, heat index 74˚F, Wet bulb temperature 74˚F. - we are in alignment 40 minutes after sunrise.
Humidity 99%, Rain for 22 minutes and .02" of rain. (The automatic sprinkler irrigation system went off last night now I have a base number on sprinkler day.)
solar radiation 85 W/m2
wind 2mph SSW

Got e-mail notification from AT&T that I have two phones that need replacing because they will soon not be compatible with the new network and I need to replace them to continue receiving service. The iPhone SE is not one of them, Drew and RNG.
