Forecast shows 80's and 60's next week ... 20% for rain.

60 degrees at night ... sure is gonna be nice to shut down the A/C and have the windows open!!

Jim you ever get your new timer put together?

I got the timer/slinger and was going to install it, but my procrastination genes flared up

and made me put it off until the major part of the 100 lb of corn gets spread by the current feeder. I'd much rather work with a feeder with 25# of corn in it than one with 100#.

I drained my feeder once into my FEL to work on my feeder timer, PITA though.

Next week looks like better "outside work'n" weather, about time if you ask me, now if we could just get our Fall moisture soon.

In past years it seems that we nearly always had rain on the opening day of dove season!

Holy crap it topped out at 99F today! Where's my jacket?

We're suppose to stay below 100* today. I can't remember the last time that happen. That's better but we sure could use that rain out in the Gulf.

Someone sent my wife an email with the following text and photo. I thought it was appropriate for this thread.:laughing:

Been a rough week, no rain, heat and lots of wind, but I made it so far.
How about you?

That is funny, and I bet you all can relate to that Rooster, the heat and drought has been brutal.:laughing:

Funny...but you know that's about how I felt after a six-week job in Decatur with no shade in sight. Glad it's about over!

Jim, that rooster looks like he had one foot already in the fryer! Sure fit's :laughing:

Looking at the NOAA weather site, seems we will be in the 80's for the high's and 50's at night next week:thumbsup:

Weird though for over 2 months I have concentrated on keeping the house cool and upgrading roof vents to better types, now I have splitting firewood on the brain which is almost as much "fun"
