good morning all
67 and cloudy day going up to high 80's with wet weather coming in tonight and tomorrow.
We need it.

Scootr, welcome to GM, and congrats on new tractor. All of your equipment looks pretty heavy duty, what do you use it all for?

RS, you have amazingly transformed your property.

Scootr, googled mapped your small town, cool you have a place marked swapmeet and a big lake nearby.
Has the level of the lake really dropped?

looks dry, hilly and not too populated there. I know nothing about California.
weather and rain is always a big part of the discussion here, and we all want to send some water your way.

Good morning! A warm humid 77˚F before sunrise. Cloud cover today should keep us in the low 90s. Chance of rain increases tomorrow and through Wednesday.

A bit of excitement this morning when I let whipper into the back yard. She chased something into the hedges and the hedges were waving back and forth and she was growling and running about. She had her bark collar on so she did not bark. I ran to the utility room to get the flashlight but by the time I was back out the critter was gone and Whipper gave no indication where to shine the flashlight. The critter dug up all my dead grass on the side yard. I'll get a pic when the sun comes out and check for evidence of a heinous crime.

good job Whipper! extra dog treat for you.

I keep thinking about a dog. I have the back yard.
Could use some company.
need one that doesn't shed.
For a while we had weimeramers on the farm. Sleek dogs.
Don't think they lasted too long, no idea why.

I need a medium sized dog. Friendly. Obedient.
most neighbors have to install electronic dog fences.
Too much traffic on road to allow pets to run free.
really nice black standard poodle across the road, pretty big dog.

big soft ear to scratch, short haired lab?
and maybe walking the dog would be good exercise, which I need, and
I might meet someone interesting in the process.

Plenty of rain yesterday. We did switch to a better hotel yesterday.
My son lost power after we left his place last night.

Today will be meeting some old friends at worship. Then hopefully lunch with them and our son. Then off to who knows where.

Good Morning.
It’s 68 and might make it to 90 with a chance of evening showers today.

Yesterday was spent mostly at home, ran a few errands, never to to airport to finish up the biplane. Brisket came out of the smoker about noon, 17 hours after it went in.

Wrapped it in foil and put it in cooler to wait for dinner.

Got it sliced up and served with corn on the cob, Cole slaw, baked beans and fresh sourdough bread. Nobody left the table hungry.

Hopefully today I’ll get to finish up the biplane and give it a much needed bath. Not much else planned.

Good Morning!!!! 77F @ 6:00AM. Sunny. High 102F. Winds S at 10 to 15 mph.
Some rain would be nice here, too, but the 10-day promises only highs in the hundreds and high 90s with clear skies.

Nice to see some new faces around here. Welcome!

Finished off the last of the trench yesterday, mostly with a shovel and rake. Not the kind of work to be doing in 100F heat, but that's the way the day went.

Ran a compression check on the new bike, results OK. It stopped smoking, too, so some oil must of leaked into the combustion chambers during transport. Also learned that the headlight lens is cracked, and there's a small dent in the fuel tank that didn't show up in the photos.

Turns out my friend Chris has a cylinder head that will replace the damaged one on the red bike, so it might be back on the road sooner than I thought. A bit of luck there, I think.

Hope everybody enjoys the rest of their weekend...
