Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
57 this morning which is better than the 60’s we have woken up to recently. High today is still expected to be in the upper 80’s but it looks to be a cooler week coming. Maybe a sprinkle or two but I’m not too hopeful.
Whew, after three whirlwind days with the kids/grandkids we are exhausted as well as the dogs are. Fun visit but way too hectic. Today they are leaving Idaho and heading to the Big Sky resort near Bozeman Montana for the week. Discovered the new (to us) pontoon boat will pull the tube great. Didn’t doubt it but it’s good to confirm.
Today I’m going to clean up the boat and put it away for a week. Then I’m going to sit in my recliner and recover,

Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
A very pleasant 52 this morning with blue skies. High today is 85 but we expect cooler days for the rest of the week. Might even see some rain on Thursday. Hope so even tho I’m golfing on that day.
Planning on mowing the lawn then working on firewood. I’ll wait for a cooler day to split but I have some already split that needs to be stacked.

Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
71 at 9AM under a partly cloudy sky with low humidity and 3 to 6 mph breeze .... forecasted high of 81 falling to an overnight low of 65 .... no rain mentioned for today but rain and thunderstorms are in the forecast for each of the next 9 days .... nothing much on today's agenda .... other than an evening drive to walk in the local town park, I don't anticipate leaving home today
Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
58' and overcast this morning. At this time we're getting some sun breaks. Maybe 76' later.
Yesterday was a tough one, spilled over to today. One of the irrigation fitting blew apart. Then the left hinge of my laptop broke, cracked the display. So most of yesterday was configuring a new laptop. This morning encountered a spot with water bubbling out of the ground. Main waterline to the house pin holed. Got it dug out but now I'm tired so taking a nap. Splice the line later this afternoon. In the meantime - no flushing.

Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
Good morning, got a day off. So I rode the 4-wheeler down to the watershed lake and watched the sun come up over the trees.

Patchy smoke before 8am.
I'm going to a Vet's coffee and doughnuts this morning and then getting the Journey
fueled up and washed this afternoon. We leave for our Blue Grass Festival Thursday morning.
The Gas Company came out yesterday and finished cleaning up the storm damage from last
week. There was a large Oak tree laying across our 1000 gallon propane tank. I had cleaned up
most of the debris around it, but I didn't want to mess with that tank. It's their tank.

Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
69 with a cool feel at 8AM .... predicted high 74 later today, overnight low 66 with a 91% chance of rain .... radar shows a large rain front west of us .... we both have dental appointments this morning .... right now it ain't look'n good for us to get back home before rain arrives
Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
53 this morning. Woke up way too early (4:00) and sat on the patio for a while. Looking at the stars I realized I hadn’t seen stars for a while. These long days of summer make star gazing hard for an early sleeper like me. High today around 80 and we have a slight chance of rain tomorrow and a better chance with possible thunder storms on Thursday. It’s supposed to get hot again next week just in time for us to be at the lake. Too hot for comfort but I guess it it’s hot the lake is a good place to be.
Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
Cloudy today:
Low: 65
High: 81
Currently: 67
Driving over to the east side of the state to a big city: granddaughter has an appointment with a specialist in her condition. This is a physical so she can play varsity volleyball this coming fall. Everyone have a great day!
P.S. I haven’t done an update for a while; she hasn’t had an episode for over 9 months. She hasn’t lost weight and maintains but hasn’t gained any weight. She does have a summer job and is learning how to drive.

54' and sunny with some clouds this morning. Maybe 82' later. Good chance of rain overnight and tomorrow. Couple of cool days after that and then high 90's expected for the weekend, continuing at least into Monday.
Water line spliced late yesterday after a nap and trip to the store for the splice part. Hole in the ground will remain open for a couple of days to make sure the splice holds. It was tough to dig out to begin with, through the gravel at the edge of the driveway. I'll close the hole with clean dirt to cushion the splice and make it easier to dig out later if needed.

54 and overcast today and maybe some light rain later this afternoon. And possible thunderstorms tomorrow. High only around 75.
Today’s Mrs. Hatchdogs birthday, she sure is getting old.
She wants me to take her to the Mongolian BBQ for dinner and then back home for drinks on the patio. I’m not much for Mongolian BBQ but I’m great with drinks on the patio.
