Hope you like it. It is a nice full range (lite to strong) black tea. 2-3 minute brew for 'normal' flavor. Brewed longer, it can get really strong. Some days I need really strong. I like mine with a dash of 1/2n1/2. Wife likes a little sugar in hers.

Same here further south of you until Friday.
Was 42 this morning. Maybe make 70 today. Blue sky with high altitude hazy/wispy cloud cover. Just finished my first cup of PGTips.

Of course. We leave Saturday to drive south on our annual “kids are back in school so campgrounds are empty” trip.

We are doing Blaine to Grants Pass on Saturday and then will head east and down the 395 about as far as Indian Wells Ca for some high Sierra and desert adventure before heading out to Ventura County for some surf. It sounds like the fires are still pretty active so we will be on our usual fly by the seat of our pants schedule. A little different than PT7 and his reserve 6 months ahead trip to Texas!

Have a friend that lives in Shasta, a few miles from Dunmuir along I5. Talked with him last night. Still very smoky in the area. I5 in the area has been open/closed a few times. We got damp this far north, they stayed dry. Safe travels and Happy trails to you.

I just looked at where Rockport is, and now your Avatar makes sense. You spend much time at PINS? I regularly surfed in Mexico with a guy from Corpus. I need to visit your part of the world some day!

I do visit PINS (Padre Island National Seashore), I have a National Parks Pass. Its a bit of a drive, but the beaches are nice and the park fees keep most of the low-lifes out.
I understand it is a good place to shark fish - catch and release. But I haven't tried going for sharks yet.

If you like sea food, Mexican food, or cold beer we can make your day!

75 here just before daylight. Expecting highs in the low 90's. I'm sure ready for Fall. Calling for rain and highs in the 60's by the weekend. Gets the leaves to changing colors and a man to thinking about hunting season. Well , better grab my coffee and go. Have to gather cattle this morning about Five miles from home and get them loaded out before it gets too hot. Good day to all.

One sure sign that fall is peaking around the calendar corner is the length of daylight now. Monday night this week met with a group of friends, and when driving there at 7pm, I turned on my headlights.

The best fall sign I'm looking forward to, other than the beautiful autumn leaf colors, is cooler temperatures. This has been an extreme summer with the heat and drought conditions here in the Northland.

So as we head into a new day and weather forecast of:
+93* real temp,
humidity at 84%,
dew point at +70,
heat index near 100*….

Fall will be most welcome! ;)
Have a good day, Everybody.

Was in Oklahoma this past weekend. Big flocks of Canadians flying in. We don't get them this far south, but we do have large numbers of hummingbirds migrate through - everyone has a feeder on the porch and it is common to see a half dozen of them working one porch. Winter is coming.
Gotta take my coffee in the to-go cup, got a freelance gig in Alice, Tx (and Alice's restaurant is closed!)
