Finally got thru all of today’s posts.
Rain just stopped after a very heavy 10-15 minutes. Still loud thunder., one just rattled things as it shook the house.

Oscope prices go up as bandwidth goes up. Some of the signal generators and spectrum analyzers at work are in $40k range I think.

Pj, sorry to hear about your loss, prayers sent for your family.

Sorry about your uncle, Paul.

Randy, very nice resting place.

Good morning. It was 81° this morning with 85% humidity so .. feels like 93° already. Our high is forecast to get to 98° and a very small chance for some rain.

Looks like we might finally get some rain over Labor Day weekend and even a few days with highs in the 80’s.

I needed to move the Corvette yesterday and the battery was dead. This is an AC Delco, that I installed at the end of May 2019. I couldn’t get it to even charge enough to use my battery tester on it. I took it into town, to the auto parts store, and the manager said he’d have to test it. He just left me a message that it was indeed bad and come get a free new one.

I need to get some yard mowing done this morning while it’s still cool (relative) so .. battery retrieval can wait until this afternoon.

Gas / diesel prices still reasonable here. Diesel for under $2 is still easy to find and I just paid $1.60 to fill my red diesel bulk tank.

Today .. marks the 75th anniversary of the signing of Japan surrender on board the Missouri, on September 2, 1945, and the end of WW2. Please take time .. to remember those who gave all during WW2.

Hope everyone has an excellent “hump day”.

Prayers to all.

I just read Unknown Valor, by Martha Maccallum, which chronicled some USMC guys lives, before and until the end of the war. Good read.

RNG, when you make up your mind, you go in full bore. I'm in, on seeing how to figure out what's going on with your system.

Has anyone taken Saw Palmetto with any noticeable improvement?

 

[lostcreekranch]

Rick, have you been able to evaluate the chain weed eater blade?

Not yet Don. Getting ready for Labor Day weekend ranch guests .. cutting grass, trimming, etc.

I'll probably install the adapter parts and blade .. on my 2nd Echo brush cutter when I get time but .. will probably wait until after Labor Day to actually use it. We're expecting highs in the 80's here after Labor Day.

 

[buckeyefarmer]

We got .6” of rain in the storm tonight. No longer dry here..

Got the transmission cleaned, torqued inside, caulked, and the lid torqued down. Tomorrow I can put fluid in and reinstall on tractor. Might wait till Saturday.


And the little piece I almost lost yesterday, there were new ones in one of the bags, but a slightly different style. I did not use all of the parts in the seal kit, they say you probably won’t.

Sadamo, I'm getting a rash under my Apple Watch, not the band but the watch itself. I do notice some high intensity green lights at times under the watch where the rash is. Are you having any problems?
