Good morning!!!!

[riptides]

mid 80's today, rain (pop and miss t-storms this w/e) + return of humidity.

For end of July, here in the northern VA, DC region, these last few days have been a real treat.

Hope to get in some major landscape raking this w/e to finish up this years projects.

A very pleasant cool morning with the temps going up into the low eighties. Just beautiful weather and it feels good to dry out
a bit. Still standing water in the fields in spots.

the tomatoes should be picked. The potatoes are overdue, but they sure aren't going anywhere.
But no garden today, today I drive back to the motorhome dealer in NJ and test drive our new travel mode.
I want to drive it on the parkway nearby, the salesman, who is new but very good, wants me to take it on "his" approved route where
one can/might get it up to 50. I'm going to live in the slow lane at 60, need to find out what it feels like, so my good friend, if you want my
money, we're headed that way, not this way. And it's not far, how convenient.

"insurance regulations" were quoted as to why we couldn't go faster. Well this poor guy doesn't know I'm a retired insurance guy and I know that's hogwash. That aside, I hope to have a fun day, and since I'm going to be involved with something with a motor and wheels, it has to be good...:thumbsup:

yeah Bobby, I guess you should have latched that awning. Is that how they always fly off?

Coffee is brewing. 53° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 79 with clouds late in the afternoon. Off to the dentist with my aunt. She needs a ride. Then cut the lawn.
txdon, Project started as a few day thing. Retaining wall is about 90' long by 6' wide by 2' deep. Wall is OK. Fill in behind is hard work. I moved top soil from back pasture. Did not run rototiller over enough to break up all the sod clumps. Now I have to rake all the sod out. Making progress, but something always gets in the way.
Good Morning All.

The best strategy is to make her think it is her idea.

That is the best strategy, but it also takes the longest with the seed info having to sprout first, but undoubtedly the best if you have the patience. If the info seed does not sprout then the throwing out of several ideals with the preferred one the only viable option for her to pick is also risky. She might come up with a idea of her own as you pretend to be searching for a solution. It takes a lot of pre-planed-tractor-time-planning strategy.


Good morning! A tie for the warmest morning of the year at 79˚, sunny and hot today.

Still overcast, low 60's this morning, feels nice for a change. Warming back to around normal for the weekend.

74 F and light showers. Can't complain about that kind of weather as July winds down.

I overslept and hopped out of the rack at 0523, I needed to go get the donuts and be into the office early.

I made it. I did manage to workout (I've only skipped 2 days since Father's Day, and my best yet is 91 push-ups in four 30 second sets).

The NEW plan is in motion. I've got a professional to "advise" me now. I'm sticking my nose back into my business, and I'm about to start working on my property, tractor, etc. soon... Watch this space for breaking news...

Be well & God Bless all-o-y'all!

PS Drew, Drive it like ya stole it sir, but be careful and have a blast.

There is spirit, health and comfort tied to working the land. I hope you can find peace and share it accordingly.

Good morning all. 71F and going to 80F, cloudy with rain approaching on radar. Finished putting down the rest of the sod yesterday, only to find out wife had not measured all the former flower bed, have another 17 yards or so of sod to lay. Game was good last night, and one of the guys decided we needed dinner before game .

David hope you get some serious seat time and some time with your other daughters!!

Drew good luck with you motor-home driving session

Sunny 80 with 85% humidity. Forecast high is 93 with 0% chance of rain. It's been a month since I could say that. I guess I'll turn the soaker hoses back on before I go to work this afternoon. Another full weekend at work. I'm glad it is picking back up. Went through a long slow period the last few months. Too many nights off, spending money instead of making it.

I'm sticking my nose back into my business, and I'm about to start working on my property, tractor, etc. soon...

David, glad to hear you are getting a chance to work your land. Dirt has a way of getting under your skin, not just your fingernails. Especially if it is family land. Even if I'm just pulling weeds, knowing my daddy, granddaddy and great granddaddy had done the same thing on the same piece of land puts it all in perspective. Good luck.

58 degrees F right now and heading up to the mid 80’s today. Had a doctors appointment yesterday afternoon, took xray’s on my right knee and the Doc gave me so pain pills and muscle relaxing drugs. Will get the news on Monday as to the next step. Can’t think of anything I did to cause the knee problem, but with a little rest and taking it easy it might get back to normal. At least it isn’t an age thing just tired joints. LOL

David hope you get some serious seat time and some time with your other daughters!!

Time with other daughters is a stretch goal, but I NEED to change the messaging they are recieving...

This is going to take some time to implement. I hope to have updates soon...

I am just prepping for the next battle, the war is far from over.

Be well & God Bless.
