55 this morning and headed to 76 today. 3.5 inches of rain yesterday from Harvey.

Have some garden work to do. But not much else planned. Waiting on guys to haul chicken litter out. It's all piled. Just need the ground to dry. We were needing the rain. I do need to work ok driveway.

Our state decided this yr to start school after labor day. People aren't happy either way. We used to start 2 wks before.

came in after a very satisfying morning. Got the trailing pivot wheel welded back onto the mower deck and despite
the ugly weld job, nice red primer hides a lot of ills.
Now on to fix the frame. A simpler job, then paint.

My watermelon decided to cooperate and the tendrils turned brown yesterday, just in time to pick for the holiday weekend. After putting it on ice for 24 hours it was time for the weigh in and cutting. It was a good one with a 9.5 taste rating at 35 degrees.View attachment 520519View attachment 520520

Drew, I'm impressed. Not a real welder here, but yours are looking good.

That does look like a good watermelon, and a good weld.

I moved a door in my garage over about 6", to where it should have been. Had to move header over in load bearing wall which i braced up 3 ft back. Then got garage cleaned out.

Pressure washed back decks. Cleaned grill, pressure washed parts of it.

Tired...

Many of our schools starting after Labor Day. Harvey induced since many schools still being used as shelters.

Happy anniversary PJS.

Prayers for rip and wifey.

Been busy. Internet out. Not sure if it is on our end or not.

Fixed flat on tractor. I sure hate wrestling tires off and having to de-rust the rim and tire bead. 11.2 x 24 front wheel on the MFWD 5420. Getting too old for that.

Changed oil on it. $25 for filter and $34 for Shell rotella T. Did some touch up painting on her too since I had some rusty metal primer left over from flat.

Can't sleep. Left the stereo on in barn. Had to go shut down the boom boom volume.

Still watching scads of army convoys and supply trucks headed to Houston. I wonder how they will deal with all the refuse? Sheetrock, carpeting, furniture, flotsam and jetsam. Umpteen thousand vehicles flooded possibly. They said used cars will go up in value due to need. Does anyone know if the sheetrock can be recycled after being wet?

Have a great day all!
