Good morning!!!!

[plowhog]

Really nice pix from everyone-- thanks all for sharing!!

Weather people said it was 108F yesterday. Our NV residence is close to 5,000' elevation-- it showed an even 100F on our thermometer. Still 5+ days in the forecast at 100F+. Flood irrigated yesterday which helped a little.

We had a 14 acre blaze touched off by fireworks nearby-- hope there are not any larger ones in this heat. Must be miserable to be on the line fighting something like that.

Rigby got me up at 4-- let me know "it's time to go out!!" He insisted on taking a toy with him to go outside. I'm going to weigh him today-- I'll bet he has doubled to 24 lbs now, maybe bigger.

Everyone have a great day!!!

Good morning all,
73° and humid now, highs around 90° winds W 5-10 mph. Garden is watered, working on 2nd cup of coffee and pondering what to get involved in today.
A conserve energy day is high on the list.

Plowhog, Rigby sure looks like a happy pup. He picked a good family to make his own . Can’t imagine those temps, that would make me get on plane to visit Wagtail lol. Stay safe.

To our friends in Texas, I hope Beryl has little impact.

Enjoy your day everyone
Stay safe and healthy

Good Morning,
Vt, 64 to start going to 85 or do with mostly sunny skies ! The humidity is still with us !

NHBX Ted and Wngsprd, thanks for comments on the saw horses, they do come in handy at times ! They ate only 18 1/2” high but for bigger pieces that height works well.

Phil, congrats on new family member !

Any body have much experience with these vehicles?

Lou, we had an Equinox quite a few years ago and had issues with it not wanting to go into FWD ! Then we had a number of Subaru Foresters ! Now we have a Honda CRV, my wife’s car.

Don, we have one Ring camera on the Connecticut house. Seems to work Ok!
For many years our front doorbell didn’t work because the transformer got blown out during a lightning storm. So when I installed the Ring doorbell I had to replace the transformer! It’s nice to check on the house when your away for packages etc !

The whole crew is leaving today, so a much more relaxed day later !

My Fridgedaire stackable washer is not working, looks like I need to replace the locking switch on the washer ! Will try and determine what model and serial number machine I have !

Hope all have a good day !

company is coming...so had to do a quick vacuum and pick up.
headed out shortly to ken's with veggies, then home to be ready for guests.

as far as Nissan Rogues, I would avoid a CVT if possible. They usually don't last more than 150k miles.
try to get a conventional automatic trans.
Nissan early on with Infinity started installing much better seats than you normally get.
pretty sure comparable Toyota more reliable, but Nissan has different style, younger look

8-12 inches of rain coming up East Central Texas.
sounds like a time to hunker in, hope you don't lose power for too long.

Morning all, 78 going up to 94 and cloudy.
Got some more items from the garden.
Did some watering, so of course it rained last night, and of course forecast was 0"
Put out some RM43, so hope it sunk in a bit before last nights rain.

Resin pour leaked, but had the presence of mine to put a garbage bag under the pour area. So just ended up a puddle on the bag. Hopefully enough stayed that I can do a thin pour and have it stay in.
Will find out later.

Pool was low, so filled it, and then it rained, so now need to purge a bit :-(

Phil - new baby in the family, so cute.

Be well,
Las nights visitor at the door, wonder what he wants?

Some more garden items

Tape, forms clamps and still leaked, no damage to top

I will make you guys in Texas a deal. You keep the hurricanes down there and I will keep my snow up here.
