Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
65° and sunny. Going to 83°
Yesterday we broke a record set in 1942 (90°)
1st cup of joe is down, and sausage eggs and toast are next. Off to buy the Wife a battery operated string trimmer. I use the stihl fs9 gas, but it's to heavy for her. Today is my radio check in with the USCG radio net. Yesterday I talked to Russia, Italy, and New Hampshire.
Cheers!

Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
39 now with beautiful sun streaming thru the trees and brush. Looks like paradise out there. Had a big rain/hail storm yesterday and everything is wet and shiny. Haven’t heard the predicted high yet as our local weather folks sleep in on the weekend.
Today I’ll finish the mowing I started yesterday. I have a large area that was still pretty dry due to a large number of trees that keep the rainfall from the ground. Yesterdays hard downpour did a good job of soaking this area so today’s mowing won’t be in a cloud of dust. (Picture Pigpen from Charley Brown)
Then I’ll finish the boat preps I didn’t get even started yesterday as we’re heading out tomorrow morning for a cruise. We have more storms predicted for this afternoon but the boat is inside so…let it storm!

Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
Mostly Cloudy 46°F 8°C
Humidity 57%
Wind Speed W 7 mph
A chilly morning.
Coffee and cookies.
I'm going to town this morning for seafood. Every two weeks a refrig truck comes up from
Galveston, Tx. with fresh seafood. We usually get shrimp, crab, and Redfish.
Then I guess I'll start mowing.
Carol is slowly getting better. Slowly.

Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
It takes a while Coop. Im just starting to feel like I might have some energy returning. It really zaps it outa ya. Im thinking getting back on the bike will be slow recovering process. Been off of it to long. Our big storm passed through. We just got some rain and a few mixed flurries here. Mountains got some snow. Its 39 right now headed to the mid 50's. Im gonna mow later when it warms up.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
Big Al....I must have missed it but what happened to you? Hope you continue to recover! To hot to shoot and to hot for me to go to the big cruise in today. Stopped by the LGS and nothing to pull my chain there. Think I go back to bed!BigAl52 wrote: ↑Sat May 21, 2022 10:53 amIt takes a while Coop.
