Good evening all. 55ºF for the start, mostly clear sky, light breeze. Light wind with some moderate gusts, sky became partly cloudy and high temp was 81ºF, HI83ºF. Mowing with new mower to start day. Started to mow back yard, wife let me know she was ready to nap, so moved to front yard. Got it finished mover had good power, front wheel drive not as effective as rear wheel drive, engine had good power, inspite of being behind mowing and grass tall. Grass catching worked well. Stopped for rest and drink water, wife got up from nap had some lunch and went for bike ride. Changed back to mowing clothes and finished yard. Friend came over to raid my hose clamp collection and there went nap. Got a call from former coworker, he is battling leukemia again. Was hopping to see him after Katy trail ride, not sure it will happen now.
Buppies hope the grinding went ok. prayers sent
Ron good to hear some retaining wall work done. Carpenter bees not my favorite insect, hope traps work. I found it theraputice to hit them with badminton racket, could get up to ten of them in a shot time

Interesting visitor, hope previous visitor gone (heron) Nice pic
Ron neat house can't tel bottom lexan.
Drew neat stories, there were several years too dry to shoot fireworks at relative's house. I agree I like hills better even if I have to bike up them.
Paul glad plow repaired, bet you will know it quick if it breaks. Hope flying was fun and safe today. Neat GS pic.
Don glad your student passed. Hope they get the trailers fixed up.
Kilroy sounds like visiting going good. If your asking about my engine lockup, was running mower on too much slant, too long, piston overheated. Hard to say about your neighbors cat, I would start with cooling or lubrication.
Bill enjoy your seat time.
Kilro glad you are enjoying relatives visit, sorry about your uncles mobility issues.

Frits quite the harrowing experience. Glad the red neck engineering worked.

Drew glad car passed inspection. Hope your trip in RV goes smoothly.
Drew I use no sugar electrolytes, nuun which uses stevia, and a low sugar electrolyte Liquid I.V. which does have 11 g of sugar per stick that I mix with24 oz of water and ice. I also use original V8 3-4 cans per week.
