My return...LOL. No when they see me, it is indifference. Some move, Porch mat cat, is a step over.

I know the wife went into the house. When she is out and about the cats follow her like pied piper.

Good morning! Another 90s day. 69˚F now with S winds, Summer is here.

Busy day the sove top people will repair the stove today and the floor people will do the floors before we move furniture into the new house. We also have to get the old house pristine for the realtor showing tomorrow which includes a lawn mowing in the heat.

Had air fried French fries last night with the freshly harvested potatoes, they were really good even without oil or salt.

Good Morning,
Ct, 54 to start going to 74 ! Clouds breaking later for some sun ! Each day getting progressively hotter, and on Wednesday possibly 90 ! 😳
Guess I better get back to work on the pool !

We are leaving for Vermont on Thursday afternoon, grand kids coming up on Friday! Hope the weather cooperates so the kids can get plenty of outside time !

Plowhog, beautiful pups, cuteness overload there !

Hope all have a great start to the week ! 🙏

Good Morning,
55° and foggy now, high in the upper 70’s after it burns off, with no chance of rain. This was from Saturday afternoon-

Yesterday started off slow, wife at farmers market, leaving me to take care of daughter, Zoe and the dogs. Helped oldest son with some electrical work, he had a 20’ light pole that was damaged so he cut it down and we pulled the base out of the ground. He put a PT 4x4 in its place with just a junction box and an outlet. But after he disconnected all the old wiring, he couldn’t remember how it was connected, it was all 120v, but was actually a 240v feed to two circuits using a common neutral.

After lunch, it dried up enough to mow, and mow I did. Used both the Progressive and the “little” 90” Landpride behind the tractor as well as the Lazer, and got nearly everything mowed.

Here’s my helper blowing off the rear deck on the Progressive mower.

Today should be fun. The contractors are coming shortly to dig and form the footings for the old folks home.
I did mark the utilities that they have to trench across (in two places) and noted the depth. Hopefully they will find them gracefully. There are two conduits, a water line, a pressure sewer line and a direct burial phone line, all in the same trench.
Later this morning, after they are started, I’ve got to take my wife to get a shot in her hip, then cook lunch for the contractors out on the grill.

Here’s a link to the recordings that I sent Drew from last Friday night. I just let the recorder run through the entire practice / jam, it’s not a real recording session, but I thought that he would like some unprocessed audio to challenge his speaker setup.

Morning all, 55 going to 78 and foggy.
Got the pool area cleaned up and then opened the pool.
Still need to get the cover folded and the diving board installed.
Yellow jacket built a nest under the cement, so will need to take care of that since it is right where I need to work and by the bar!

Safe travels Drew and Scotty.

New neighbor has marked out the driveway, but still don't see any equipment showing up.

Today need to get the cover folded and stowed and some more work with weed whacker and need more salt for the pool and .....

Be well,

First figs coming in, will need to trim back the fig tree this winter as it is now so big is covers the bedroom windows.

57 and fog here, too. Should see sun and 78 later.

Plow, you're gonna have a hard time choosing one of those handsome pups.

Most of this morning has been puppy training and coffee pourover making...but it gets cold before I can drink it. Looks like the phoebes are trying to get their babies to fledge today, so walking the long way around the shelter. The other young bluebirds and mockingbirds seemed to have survived and are thriving.

Rip, I'm behind on mowing, so if it dries, I'll be out there this afternoon, like you.

Ken, I bet that choral concert you posted the other day was great.

Ordered a puppy harness for leash training yesterday afternoon, and it was delivered this morning at 8am. I could get spoiled this way.
