Our Pet Club is sending out notifications. There will be a memorial service at our neighborhood Amphitheater. They are trying to find all 75 dogs names and the 59 owners. Some owners are probably still out of town and have not heard the news. The fire fighters got there quickly but all 75 were already dead from smoke inhalation. It hit them hard also, they are also being invited to the memorial service.

Good evening all. 71F for the start, clear sky, moderate breeze. Moderate wind with some brisk gusts sky became partly cloudy, and high temp was 98F, DP 61F.

Heart wrenching ☹️
 
   / Good morning!!!! #138,668  
74F and partly cloudy @ 22:30, heading down to 67F for the low.

Got north outside shop wall pressure-washed, also part of west outside wall. Used about 120 gallons of water and less than two tanks of gas.

Woman applied the E-Coriganite to the hosta planting bed around the big maple.

While we waited for the 65 gallon leg tank to refill, we worked on palletizing the part of the firewood stack that fell over, mostly got that done so started working on the part that hadn't fallen over. Got about 3 1/2 pallet's worth done so far:

It's very well-seasoned at this point so it's pretty light, will probably move it down and inside the pole barn to keep it dry for the time being. Will probably throw some shrink-wrap around them before I try and move them very far though.

Neighbor was out moving trees with his Bobcat and stopped by for a quick chat, asked if we needed any more pallets. Told him sure can always use pallets so he went up and gathered up four more and brought them back.

The Woman had put more potatoes in the oven to bake and warmed up some corn to go with the ribs, so as it was starting to get dark at that point we called it quits and headed down to enjoy our dinner.

Hope everyone had a great day ... (y)

LOL ... not even close.

Seriously though, it will be a mixed blessing:

Yard/lawn/plants can use it.

It will give me the chance to core aerate one more time before I over-seed.

Will probably make digging out forsythia (and/or more rhododendrons) for transplanting easier.

Downsides:

Dirt pile is still outside the barn, loose, and un-tarped. Might try to handle that in the morning if it's not raining, along with the screened compost pile.

Concrete at creek crossing still not done.

That's not good.

Enjoy the big cool down ... ;)
