Good morning!!!!

Another sleepless night. Non-stop lightning and thunderstorms. At least we got some much needed rain. 2.0" on my gauge.

Good morning to all! Low was 62°, going up to 76°. Mostly cloudy, hazy sunshine. Better chances of rain / T-storms this afternoon. Last evening, looked like a storm was approaching, but it fell apart. Just some out-flowing breezes.

A better sleep last night, did have some trouble falling asleep, but once out.... just stayed out. Feeling much better this morning.

Wng, beautiful pics! Thanks for sharing. How many hours do you normally get to hike a week?

PopG, beautiful place you have. Hope the GS enjoyed his tractor time!

Funny thing, I thought about Don last evening wondering where he was, and I was going to check this morning when his last post was..... low and behold... there's his post! Nice cruise pic.

Today's agenda.... basically yesterday's agenda. Hopefully it will actually happen today. It will, at least, get started....

Going to get started....
Everyone have a great day!

66°F and .17 inches rain.

Making it to the PO and a dump run were the two most productive activities of my day otherwise I excelled at energy conservation. Nice day.

Goal is to be a bit more productive today, but how will remain undefined until after coffee.

Safe travels to Drew, RNG, and anyone else.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Dump run is done...boy! had a lot to take today!!

Mowed a little more than half the lawn...it's about 85° now...I'll do more if it cools later...or tomorrow morning.
Did cut it higher than usual...this heat would burn the grass if cut shorter
Time for a beer and lunch...

Already made a date for this evening, diner in PA.
Going to take mower down along creek soon, it didn’t get mowed last time, and has a lot of shade. Waiting for grass to dry some more.
Haven’t mowed on other side of creek yet. Really need to put grapple on and pick up a small tree over there that fell, and some poison ivy covered stuff that fell on this side, that I mow around.
Too hot to work on shed.
Kitten is wore out and asleep.

83 in West Kill, NY. Ok drive, just under four hours.
dropped off trailer and golf cart at cabin, said hi to everyone and came back to enjoy some a/c and a rest. House isn't quite finished but awesome view and I'm delighted to be here.
Neck hurts, need to rest

Drew, glad you made it ! Apparently, your setup for the cart worked ok..... enjoy your trip!

88° and humidity dropped to 47%

Mowed across creek for first time. Used ZT with deck raised all the way. Looks rough, and caught a trespasser running away.

Did hit some sticks, went around big ones I could see, moved a few. Blades definitely need sharpened now, didn’t cut the plantain tops well when I mowed on this side of creek up to where son mowed last time. I then gave front yard a quick cut again.

Then sprayed a little weed juice

got a shower to get ready for date night.

Drew, NY is very pretty, but a messed up state.

I was able to change out the drippers. Then moved the last bit of materials away from the front of the shop.... now looks strange, but an improvement.

Then got started on cutting the pieces / parts for the picket fence extension. Finished up the cuts and staged everything where it will be used.

The weather was cooperating, nice temp, 75°, partly sunny... I was on a roll....
The lonely single dark cloud started getting bigger and bigger, drifting this way.... I started to gather the tools needed to put the fence framework together..... BA-BOOM! First strike was close. I don't work under or near trees when there is lightning. Went up on the porch and it started raining.....

Still sprinkling (no actual steady rain) and rumbling. I guess I'm done outside for today. I am happy that I accomplished something.... even if it wasn't everything I wanted to do.

I'm going to make Philly cheesesteaks for dinner with a side of fries. Red, White, and Blue sherbet for desert.

Outside temp is now 62°. Full cloud cover.
