Glad to read the fire is out in Shenandoah National Park - over 10,000 acres burned, but most of the trees are expected to survive...lots of ground "litter" leaves, deadfalls, etc burned and lots of new plants will emerge...good for wildlife to move back in.

I watched a pretty cool video someone took with their drone from the valley...showed enormous smoke cloud.

We only smelled smoke here on one day.

Ed, I know you're glad it's out.

I am more glad for the firefighters than myself. We had thick smoke here one am. and then the wind changed. I was a firefighter for 10 years, volunteer, and I cant get my mind around 16 hr shifts fighting a big fire like that. Now praying for rain in Alberta. Ed

Good morning 40 degrees this morning headed to mid 60's today and rain. Today i'll go get my truck serviced so the day won't be a total loss. I will go to pro bass while thats going on and look around a little. Everyone have a great day

Good Morning All. 48 here this morning going to 59. 80% chance of showers today and we are getting some of them now. Calling for rain of some kind for every day and night through Thursday. Not complaining, I figure we are still behind on ground water. It was dry for a good while and we only got one good snow last winter.
Picked up the new lawn tractor yesterday and just left it in the trailer, that way it stays dry. Grass about a foot high, will try to knock some down between rains. Should have gotten a bumper for it so the grass wont dent the grill.
Going to do the grocery thing today, Daugen, maybe I'll see you there. I hate going shopping on a friday, to many people but better than saturday.
Earl is a poet, but we did not know it.
Have a great day. Ed

I'd like a room to roast coffee, so I can supply everyone with fresh brewed.

Oh, I am in heaven, let me provide the Master Roaster with a really nice chair.
Some scones would be nice...

45.4F and clear as a bell ... high today will be 66F supposedly.

Might be dry enough to at least get the upper (high) parts of the front lawns mowed ... probably can forget the low spots though. And thunderstorms tomorrow too.

Need to grab another quart or two of Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck so I can do the 1800 hour oil change on the tractor ... probably pick up the rest of the steel for the LPGS while I'm out.

Today would probably be a good day to take the SSQA up to U. B.'s and try and straighten it out ...

So many outdoor chores to do, so little warm/dry weather ...

Roy reports an expected high of 69 today miles north of me, while our forecast is for high of 59, cloudy and showers. I'm jealous!

Thanks for the computer poetry, Eric- brightened my morning. And the answer to your math question is to write a discontinous boolean function that returns a "true" when the weather is good and you feel too good to spend time on any other activity.

I'm gonna wrap up that code this morning for "client" review and testing then lunch with a (former) co-worker.

Have a great day everyone.

I'm not sure I ever want to go into a retirement community, although must admit it is now starting to sound quite attractive. Could we have a little stream meandering through please ? Full of trout that anyone can feed but no one is allowed to fish -an occasional bit of night poaching would make those unplanned middle of the night wakenings much more thrilling.

Also, if we are allowed to pee off the porch, at our age we ought make sure the properties are orientated to take advantage of the prevailing wind ...
