Good morning!!!!

[PJSprog]

42°F and cloudy this morning, only going up to 57° today. CLOUDY! Haven't seen any clouds around here in weeks, since the remains of Helene passed by us over three weeks ago. Not knocking the crystal clear skies all that time, but I was surprisingly excited to see clouds again. Even drove through some light rain here and there this morning.

Going to get close to freezing overnight tonight. That will probably end the pepper plants' extended production.

Good Morning, gents.

Good Morning!!!! 53F @ 8:15AM. Areas of fog early, then partly cloudy this afternoon. High 69F. Winds W at 10 to 15 mph.

Spent most of yesterday working paperwork, but did get replacement tires and tubes ordered for the e-bikes. Thorn proof tubes. We shall see.

Out running errands today, probably get a regular flu shot.

70°F and 1.37 inches of much need rain. More than doubling our total for the month.

My curry kabucha soup was a hit at HH, no surprise. Lots of other awesome, coconut inspired dishes.

Main focus today is purging the garage.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

I agree! Overcast and clouds today for first time
but....cold front coming down, today's 85 in NO will be 71 tomorrow.
and no rain

ok drive, first part was an elevated concrete highway about 30 feet up from swamp, went on like that for maybe ten miles. That must have been fun to build.
Bridge over Mississippi was fine, no backup, lot of traffic all the time though

got in early, decided to walk around today and take pics, will go to lunch tomorrow.
what a pretty place, much nicer than I expected, not like that dump in Marin Co.
this has beautiful landscaping and a water view.

I heard a jet blast past so pretty sure drone won't go up.
this place looks like Florida down to the gekkos

Ted, you ever walk out and find dew anywhere?

Drew, yes, I have seen dew here.....maybe 3 times in 30 years! We have had fog maybe 5 times....

Scott, sorry about your kitty. Always hard to say goodbye to our furry friends.

Good morning! Low was 41°, heading up to 77°. We actually have some rain chances Wed thru Sat. Hope we get some, it's been almost 6 weeks since the last sprinkle. Now the forecast has the temps dropping into the mid 60's starting this weekend. Sunday's low is forecast at 33°.

Topped off the pond on Saturday..... by Monday morning, it was 6-8" low..... mmmmm. So, shut it down and let it sit overnight.... no drop in level in the 3 sections.... moved some rocks at the top exposing the saturated dirt. Apparently, the upper waterfall started a "siphon effect" by surface tension on the rocks and diverting the water behind the waterfall.

Fixing the pond is on the agenda for today. That's probably all. If I have any remaining energy, maybe grease the tractor.

The son has a second interview this afternoon at an engineering firm. Hopefully a new door opens for him. First interview was on Friday morning, by afternoon, they called to schedule the second -- a good sign.....

Wifey is still nursing her back. No debilitating jolts over the past couple days, but she is being exceptionally careful how she moves. I got close to getting her to go get checked, but no joy. Talk about stubborn....


Everyone have a great day!

I've been wondering (and worrying a bit) about how KilroyJC made out during Helene. He was living and working in western North Carolina and planning on building on his property in the mountains. He hasn't posted here in over 6 months. Hope he is okay. Anyone heard from him?

Heard from D in Tokyo. She is having a good time

"From yesterday. Went to the fish market, Ueno Park and wandered around the temples and pagodas and then to Ginza for an amazing sushi lunch we thought was going to be low key and was fancier than expected but delicious. Then back to Roppongi and wandered around some more then back to our neighborhood for some late night skewers — a new favorite food. Simple and flavorful like mama’s cooking."

Good Evening,

Out running errands today, probably get a regular flu shot.

Scot, we got the flu shot a couple of weeks ago along with the latest Covid booster ! Did you also get the Covid booster ? Not sure we needed it but Kathleen thought it was a good idea !

Scott, sorry about your kitty. Always hard to say goodbye to our furry friends.

Thanks Ted !
