good morning all.
Roy, sorry you are waking up without your little buddy.

warmest day so far this year, going up to 86 in sun today and 55 out now.

might go out to some plant nurseries this morning looking for some shade plants.
Otherwise have some zinnias to replant and fussing around

Mmmm, good coffee. 50° with a few clouds this morning. Heading to 82° with mostly cloudy skies. Yesterday ended up to be a mostly conserve energy day.
Went to place I had an appointment for haircut. It was closed. No notice or messages after making appointment on Monday. Hope all is alright. Take Sassy in for grooming this morning. Been refinishing a kitchen and chair set for my dining room. Will work on that today. This is a long term project that I started over a month ago. Got about 1/2 the stripping and sanding done.
Comcast cable inspector is back.

Everyone stay safe and healthy.

Good Morning All.

Ron, you nailed the focus on that squirrel.
Since I assume that is a power line he is sitting on, no wonder his tail fur is all static-y and attracted to the cable.
I hope you keep a separate album of your bird/critter pics.

David, best wishes for Sophie's continued success with eye surgery. Hard to imagine losing one's sight.
Reminds me I need to get an annual eye exam with new doc in town and then likely get some new glasses. I usually get titanium
frames so they hold up, but after awhile even they look like that squirrel gnawed on them. Plus the lens are all scratched no matter how much they
charge for anti-scratch coating.

I'm right there with you on that, Drew. I've had really good luck with Ray-Ban frames, then getting Costco to make the lenses. All the grinding I did for the steel firewood pallets really wrecked my current set of lenses, anti-scratch coating and all. I have two sets of the Ray-Ban frames, the newest in black to get rid of reflections in the face shield of the motorcycle helmet. So I moved my chewed up lenses to the backup frames and took the main ones in last week for new lenses. Had to doctor the dates on the prescription so they would take it, though.

I do have a separate album that I save critter pictures in.
Cable is main line for Comcast Cable that feeds the whole area around me. I am the only house on the connection to that line.

RS, you are on a impressive roll. Lot more energy than I've got...

Lot of confusion out there regarding masks. Quite the switch the CDC threw yesterday.
Basically by Memorial Day it appears we are going to be back to an unregulated summer.
Sure am hoping the vaccine keeps us successfully defended for awhile against the new nasties
that inevitably will come. We all will sure be well stocked with masks, etc when it does...

truck salesman supposed to call me today. This should be interesting. Am hoping Honda will be
forthright with me and can give me a honest ETA. Now if it were a VW I would expect them to lie to me
based on my own personal repeat experiences. One of the reasons I bought a Honda anyway. Trust.
Though I do like VW's new ID4 compact electric SUV. And while I know that Audi is part of VW Porsche,
their service experience has been excellent for me.
Not in my lifetime will I ever trust the morals of a German company. I may buy their product but I don't trust them.

Ron, Comcast cable, ok, lot of insulation on that but still looks like the squirrel's tail is having a bad hair day.
RNG, thanks.

51 and clear, going to 84. Texans, send rain!

So sorry for you, Roy. Bella always sounded like a special dog. I'm sure parts of your daily routine revolved around her and it will be tough at those times. Glad you were able to find a vet to come to your house. I need to look into that for when the time comes.

Kyle, prayers said for you and your wife. After I was rear-ended I had the same symptoms...the ER doctor said it was a concussion. You've had a tough year with this following the C. virus.

Ken, I don't envy your battle with poison ivy. I go hunting it with my backpack sprayer every summer. I thought I had won the war around a dead cedar up by the road...sprayed it twice last summer...went yesterday with the chainsaw and grapple (a big cedar - 18" trunk) and had been limbing it for a while when I found 1 survivor PI plant hiding under a poke plant. Anyway finished the job and glad I don't have to look at that skeleton tree any more
