Good Morning!!!! 65F @ 9:00AM Areas of fog early, becoming sunny this afternoon. High around 75F. Winds WNW at 10 to 15 mph.

Drew, Santa Fe, NM has some great restaurants . There's also a plaza downtown that used to have vendors selling hand crafted American Indian art and jewelry. Tons of other galleries, too. Been a while since I've been there, though.

There are also the Taos and Acoma pueblos in the Albuquerque area that are worth seeing.

In Albuquerque, you might consider a visit to the National Museum of Nuclear Science & History

So.....otherwise occupied this AM. I just hit 101F here @ 2:30PM. The only good thing - relative humidity is 8%. Brownie and I will be staying inside - 75F - until the sun goes down. I have a fan on each end of the house. One pull the cool night air in - the other blows the house heat back outside. Last night I was able to bring the inside temps to 70F.

It's so hot/dry outside - - I can see my lawns drying out and turning tan.

Not to worry. Everything will turn green again with the fall rains.

It's 3:35 now. Temps have dropped - 100F So has humidity - 5%.

At this rate - stand outside. Risk turning into a human prune.

Down to 85deg from a high of 97 deg. I did push the fallen tree from the field into the bushes along the field , where it came from.
Been monitoring the water softener regens, every flush pulling more water from the salt tank, so must have been the stuck float.

Good (Wednesday) morning. Overnight Low of 10.4C and it's presently 15.9C, mostly cloudy and calm. There was 17.5mm in the gauge @ 0900... the shed tank has mostly re-filled!

It's 'into town' day for mail & groceries. I do need to keep my mobile phone close by in case the plumber calls that he's coming out, otherwise it's quiet around here.

That's about it, take care all.
I read in a variety of places that the cost of fertilizer has really jumped and is hurting the small farmers.
Lime, here, was A$65 per tonne (delivered) and I received 9.5t = A$552.50.
My 'share' of the spreading was A$314.87, so all in all my cost was A$867.37.

Good Evening,
RNG, beautiful job of putting all that info together for our friend Drew ! I should print that out in case I ever head out that way ! 🙏

Got to 94 here today ! 😳
I actually burned my hand trying to open my Bilco Door to the cellar! It’s black so I’m guessing that didn’t help ! Just way to hot to do any real work outside !

Maybe a dump run tmrw ! Have a good evening! 🙏
