Good morning!!!!

[toppop52]

Went to church, came home
, mixed bleach and water in the Cub Cadet spray rig and washed the house, all the decks and all the buildings. We finished that, rinsed the tank and sprayer and mixed glyphosate for the driveway, turnouts and assorted other places.
Feels good to be doing stuff again, I can’t throw my leg over the steering wheel yet, but I’m getting stronger.

82° and mostly sunny.

Good to hear from you Ron.

Got second dose of Moderna, was in the waiting area by 15:00 ... about to head home ...

Will stop and get some gas for the Cub on the way back and maybe a sandwich while I’m at it.

Weatherman got it wrong today. Was supposed to rain pretty much all day.

Nope - not a drop yet. Cloudy and a little cool but an OK day.

Wife planted her raised garden today. Celery, peppers, cucumbers, squash and tomato’s. If like last year, we’ll be eating lots of veggies!

Good afternoon. It's 85° here with 14 mph winds.

We got 4" of rain Friday a.m., another 3 1/2" Saturday a.m. and 1" last evening so 8 1/2" in less than 36 hours. This was the first real moisture here since our February snow. Just to much in a short amount of time.

Our pastures are very soft so .. tractors will stay parked for a few days. Our sandy soils turn into "quick sand" for a while after big rains.

We postponed our VFD Spring Fund Raiser .. that was scheduled for last evening .. to 5/15. With all our new Fire Dept. Building Construction and all the rain .. the location was a slop hole.

We did get the concrete slab poured last Wednesday .. so that nicely beat our down pours. We'll start our red steel erection by Monday 5/17. We've had the steel for almost 8 months but everything got delayed by the virus.

We've also had the steel siding, roofing, and all the insulation for nearly 8 months as well. We hope to have a "dried in" building by the end of July or sooner. With current steel prices .. we saved over 50% by buying everything last year and all was stored for free.

We'll eventually have five bays for our pumper, big tanker, small tanker, brush fire truck, Polaris Ranger brush fire rig, and command vehicle. We'll also have a 25' x 50' training room, full commercial kitchen and three offices.

Glad to see .. our four ISS astronauts, had a safe return this morning.

Welcome home Ron. Glad you're back.

Hope everyone had a nice weekend.

Prayers to all.

Good evening! It was a nice mostly sunny day, temp now 84˚F. 2.57" rain yesterday brings the weekend total to 3.84", not as much as those South but enough to turn the irrigation off for a week.

Welcome back Ron! nice pic.

The Lake Cruise emailed that they were canceling an hour before we had to leave because of the rain so that saved a trip to Austin. We went out to eat, the first time since last year, at a Mexican grill - Chipotle's - they did not have any onions or peppers, they really don't belong in Texas with no peppers and onions. I did find out I'm a much better Chef.

Had the first Hand and Foot card game this afternoon since the covid started. The room's capacity is topped at 30 (usually 60) we had 28 show up. I won 3 out of 5 games. Face mask are required.

The sprouts are ready to eat and I had my first serving. They turned out good and I like that the crop can be harvested in just 3 days. Second jar has been started.
