Bright sunshine is streaming into the LR once again and will continue to bathe CT with warmth all day long. We're expecting temperatures in the mid-sixties by afternoon. Enjoy your day.

Just finished my second cup of joe, now heading to the shop to see why my BB doesn't feed like it should. I am sure I will be more enthusiastic once I am into it. Maybe a third cup. :?:

Rain and up to 50 degrees today. Good day to work in the shop. Will mount the mower deck on the lawn tractor and pick one of the many other projects I have yet to get into. Can buy plants in Michigan starting today but the stores will be jammed. Have a wonderful day!

Sun’s coming up, had a shower last night, 46 and sunny, high of 60 today. Went shooting several days this week, this might be good day to clean some guns and maybe put a pork
loin in the smoker.

Warm as heck the last couple days. Sunny and clear. After breakfast, will put our masks on and take a stroll by the creek. Then, out to the shop and piddle around. Stay safe.

I have smoked a lot of meat but never a pork loin. Do you do some kind of marinade or rub? I've found that pork loin is pretty tasteless just roasted. The Wife tries to marinade with soy sauce and onions, but that falls short in my book.

Coffee and Oreo's this AM.
More yard work today.

I brine for a couple of days, marinate (soy sauce, garlic, sesame oil, brown sugar) inject with more marinade, then a rub, then smoke.

Thanks. I'm going to try that.
We do ribs, pork shoulders, salmon, peppers, squash, ect.
Our salmon is brined for a couple hours in salt, brown sugar, and some spices. Then we lightly smoke till the fat cooks out.
Folks love it. It's not dried out, but juicy and sweet.

.
Was 39 with light rain. Currently 56 and not raining, but every thing outside is dripping wet. Maybe 65 later.

Have to go pick up Rx's later this morning. Will take care of my own safety including dodging away from those who have a negligent disregard for the safety of others.

CT will have temps in the mid-to-upper forties and rain all day. It's getting to be quite green out there. The forest underbrush is nearly fully sprouted and the tall trees are now giving their own leaves a very serious push. Enjoy your day.

46° and overcast. It's been wet and windy for days. I hope my Brothers west of me weathered that nasty storm yesterday. On radar it looked bad. Just finished my 1st cup of Joe. Getting a late start. Late night also. All's good on the Mountain. Hope y'all enjoy your Sunday. Stay safe and healthy.

On a final note. These masks that everybody are wearing probably makes bank Tellers nervous. Just a thought. Cheers!

54 Thus AM, supposed to reach the high sixties today.
Coffee in my America cup with an old child hood favorite. Cinnamon toast. Haven't had that for a while.
It'd our Sunday ritual to go to church and then out for brunch. Well, since we can't do that we do bacon and eggs here at home on Sunday.
Got a lot of yard work done yesterday including getting out the old 8N with the loader and hauled some black dirt to patch some spots in the yard. Still got some more to do.

Rained last night here too. Right now it's 73°. It got down to the mid 60's last night. Cooler than the last few days. Summer is nigh.
