Good morning!!!!

[RedNeckGeek]

Good Morning!!!! An even 70F this morning at 6:00 AM.
A good deal of sunshine. High 89F. Winds S at 5 to 10 mph.

Nice to read some good news here in the GM thread!

Lately I've been seeing a pair of jackrabbits in the overnight security cam videos. Not sure if that's good or bad, but it probably means I'll be seeing little jackrabbits in not too long. I've also been seeing a pair of foxes hanging out, so maybe it'll all balance out?

On the last trip, I noticed that the "air cannon" horn on the zebra bike sounded more like a wounded goose than a cannon. This is the third one I've had, and all three failed prematurely. A few years ago I put a pair of Hella horns on the van, and they're nice and loud, and sound nothing like a goose. Yesterday the cannon goose made it into the trash can, and a new pair of the Hellas were wired in, ready for the next careless driver that tries to come into my lane. Yeah, that happens at least once on almost every trip.

The annual Airheads campout in Sequoia National Park is this coming weekend, and Wednesday I'm headed out to meet up with some friends in SoCal for the ride over. Looking forward to some cooler temperatures and dry weather (for a change).

I got fed that load of hogwash (storks bringing babies) as a young'un and bought into it until I was about 13 or so.

White stork - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

According Wiki, they are not in Americas

We have saying that they bring babies. Read last chapter of that wiki article:


I suppose that's because their migration is at the same time as "baby boom". Statistics show that in March there are born a bit more babies than ususally. Parents went wild ad mid-summer drinking parties and lovely surprise were delivered 9 months later

Interesting look at the color of the retro 1940s baby stork from eBay.

42°F and clear skies this morning, going up to 73° today. We'll be down in the upper 30s tomorrow morning, if the predictions are true. May have to actually wear a jacket.

Glad you're still with us, Helogabals.
I heard the stork/baby story as a child as well.

Good morning, gents.

Heard the stork story as a child also. I think that began what has turned into a lifetime of female misunderstanding

Supposedly 55F and cloudy @ 11:30, but the sun has been out ... appears it might be going away now. Only calling for a high of 57F today and 58 tomorrow. Might not be too bad if sun stays out. Well below normal temps.

Got networking devices hooked up last night and they appeared to be working. Some of the LED's are currently off on both so will need to explore that later today.

Have to run over to friends in a few and pick up tools.

Rain chances reduced (<25%) after tomorrow in the Ten Day which looks promising.

Likely get a haircut today.

Probably refill bird feeders and check live trap.

Unsure what else will be on the agenda.

Hope everyone has a great Tuesday.

69°F and .04 inches rain.

Plan is to finish flail the Laupahoehoe area and move on

Extra thoughts and prayers for those in hurricane path. Be safe.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

The sun is shining

I spent almost 3 hrs in dentist chair this morning. Pure torture. When they stand me on my head to work on me, it’s tough to breath.
He cut out 2 old crowns, because of an issue in between them. Patched it all up and put in a temp crown that combines the 2 teeth. He said it will be painful when the medication wears off, which is starting. My whole side of the face is starting to throb.

Been there, done that...
I ended up getting all my teeth pulled a couple years ago. Worst part was pulling the molars from my jaw...thought they were going to pull my jaw out of my mouth...
