I got about .04, enough to cool it down some. The winds have been nice in the shade, but will dry my place out in this weeks heat.

I thought I was boring people with my pictures.I'll try to get some and post them later. This year, my whole place is green, including weeds.
Not at all! I can always live vicariously through *your* pics, since things are turning brown rapidly here. Last rain I had was almost 3 weeks ago, and I still didn't get as much as some of you. Right now, I am resigning myself to praying for enough rain that any overseeding of the pastures that I do with ryegrass, gets to grow and give winter forage!

Glad to hear that you got some rain, Western! I'm glad you and jinman did. Dry here.
Oh, and Hereford left, this morning y'all, so he's no longer available.

Then you should LOVE this! I posted on another thread over July 4. It is one of my favorite videos! And yes, many of these pilots are based locally, in McKinney.

Rest in Peace
Anyone who loves airplanes needs to visit Anchorage and visit all the airports there. I don't know of any other place where you could see as many different makes, models, and types of aircraft.

Jim, I honestly didn't know if Bob was still with us or not. I just assumed that he wasn't flying aerobatics anymore...sorry.

I flew into Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Ketchikan in land aircraft. Great places, for sure. Would go back in a heartbeat, in the summer. From Ketchikan to Bell Island, float plane only, as with many other islands. Thus begins an "addiction".
I think Alaska is a BEAUTIFUL state, with an assortment of neat aircraft. I have an old college class-mate living and working in Fairbanks now.

Very cool! I did some hang gliding and ultralight stuff, but none with a jet pack. Maybe I have something else to add to my bucket list.

Shades of the fires from 2 years ago come to mind.
Scary, if you ask me.
Hey pacerron; Rocognize anyone in these pics? :laughing: If so, no names please mentioned in the thread, please. I have an internet stalker, that shows up on my real name. And for the rest of you, yes, that's me as PIC, so no wisecracks from y'all either! LOL
