Ron, how is your walk form going? Do the goldfish freeze the whole winter long?

Kyle, walking has not changed yet. Another PT visit today.
Fish stay in pond all year around. I have an aerator that keeps oxygen in pond. Especially.when it freezes over.

for our Texas friends, the vehicle next to you may not have any driver at all
Austin, as usual, seems to be the focus. Interesting that Texas has permissive regulations
when it comes to autonomous vehicles so they are getting tested there.
I saw the Waymo ones in San Francisco, rather strange looking
makes you wonder how much all that lidar radiating out of there is doing to the nearby pedestrians.
wait until they have a lidar recall, find out we've been microwaving ourselves

Good Morning
75° and overcast, high of 85 with the sun coming out later, with the likelyhood of thunderstorms increasing throughout the day.

Yesterday did get all the mowing done, except the pastures (which don’t need it yet) used both the Lazer and Progressive. The Lazer had a blade come loose, which was pretty odd. It stayed on, the symptom was an incomplete cut in heavy growth, but generally worked ok.

Brunch was excellent, I had burger and salad, wife had lobster eggs Benedict.

Later in the afternoon, after the presidents golf outing and the airspace opened up, son and grandson came up and we flew RC here.

Not a lot scheduled for today,I’ve got to cut sandblast rubber for the Rockman, probably go out to lunch with the usual crowd, putter around in the shop.

LIDAR radiates laser light, usually in the infra red spectrum. Much shorter wavelength than microwave, but electromagnetic energy nonetheless.

it would be interesting to have a broad band receiver and see how much EM we are getting from
what sources
this was a big deal for folks living near high tension lines. I think that concern turned out to be unfounded.
with every car having numerous transmitters now, not just receivers, there is a lot of stuff in the airwaves.

headed out to pick beans and get some work done before it rains.

Morning all, 77 going to 85 and cloudy, calling for heavy rains tonight.
Finished cleaning out coolers from party, got all the furniture moved and cushions inside.
Trash down to cans, what a mess that was, never buying off brand bags again.
Afternoon relaxing and lots of left over food, so no prep/cook was nice.
Then son cam home at 2:30 am from going out to the late movies and tooling around with his friends.

The Jeep seems to be running rough with all the signs of timing chain stretch, needs to go in tot he shop.

Something ate one of my tomato plants. Did find a green work the other day, but whatever is eating the plant I can't find and I looked under what leaves were left and on the ground.

I still have the second smaller Mr. Cool head unit I need to put in, could have used it this weekend.

Cotton candy maker is cleaned, still need to clean popcorn machine. We found out years ago it was cheaper to buy these than rent them, so we bought nice ones and we've had them for many years. Take up storage space, but the little ones go nuts making cotton candy.

Well, back to the day job.

Be well,

Good Morning to All who Celebrate! 77° going to a high of 83° scattered thundershowers this morning. Some storms blew through last night but no damage that I could see this morning.

Friendsgiving went well. Campground owning friend's sister is a professional chef, so we were in for quite the treat. Mashed potatoes, Turkey, gravy, wine mushrooms, an extra sweet corn hybrid, stuffing, delicious spinach dip (Never thought delicious and spinach would be in the same sentence) Mom's apple pie was a big hit. Good to see everyone again. Drive up there and back was a snap, realized how rare it was for me to be up there during the summer. Most of my memories of NEPA happened from September to May.

A group of my online friends, including one from Down Under, are congregating in Buffalo, NY for a wedding of another one of our online friends this weekend. (I'm not invited to the wedding, it's a numbers game, I get it) Despite already shelling out to help rent the Air BnB, I'm really debating if I want to drive the 10 hour round trip total. This might be the final hurrah before I can close that chapter of my life. Decisions, Decisions...

Still need to reach out to the salesman, Think I'm going to step up to a 20ft trailer for an extra $200. Just need to time it so I can pick it up while the folks are at the beach. Also need to find my mother something for her upcoming birthday.

Otherwise, just holding down the fort at work. Think we're finally getting to the point of the summer where everyone is either out on vacation, recovering from vacation, or preparing to go on vacation. Mowing is all caught up and we'll just let the storms blow through, hopefully no damage.

Y'all stay safe out there and be well!
Prayers for all ailing and recovering!
