Another warm one on the way here. Says 92°, but I'm betting on higher. They've been wrong all week. Why would I think they will be right today.

78 with a RealFeel of 93 at 8AM .... forecasted high 98 with dangerously hot conditions with heat index values up to 115 expected..... highest chance for rain shown for any time between now and midnight is 7% .... only thing on tap for today is our camping club meeting at the NC Seafood Restaurant at the Raleigh Farmer's Market -- https://www.ncseafood.com/ .... Calabash style seafood at its best

Been trying to finish the siding on my garage but the weather has not cooperated. Too hot, rain, and today it's 97% humidity and mid 80s.

Woke up to a refreshing 59 and a beautiful sunrise is in the works. High today I believe should be in the mid 80’s and hopefully the winds of the last two days are over. Had another wildfire break out yesterday but the fine firefighters and air crews got it knocked down with a burn area of 75 acres. No structures lost.

More putting away of camping stuff today then my wife and I are venturing into downtown Spokane to see a Pink Floyd cover band called Brit Floyd. Show starts at 8:00 so we will be in “downtown Spokane after dark” . Venue has a metal detector so I can’t carry my EDC.

Kids/grandkids are coming up from California this week and they have rented a cabin on Lake Pend Orielle in North Idaho. We’ll be taking the boat up there for tubing and cruising fun. Gotta get it washed so I can get it dirty again.

...my wife and I are venturing into downtown Spokane to see a Pink Floyd cover band called Brit Floyd.

I really hope you enjoy their show. I've read it's really good.

I saw another cover band, Floydian Trip, at The Kate in CT last year. It's a small theater and I went with a younger friend, who totally enjoyed it. It seems everyone else there did, too. But, I didn't. I removed my hearing aids, though not surprisingly, it didn't help at all. I know the vocals were great, though; my friend was singing along. I saw other people singing along and dancing in the aisles. But, I couldn't hear a single phrase. I couldn't even tell you what songs they sang. I heard a very loud mix of bass and percussion, chalk board scratches, and Charlie Brown's teacher wailing into the mic.

The days of live rock and roll are over for me. Movie Theaters are a thing of the past, too. Sigh!

55' and cloudy this morning. Clouds should burn off and maybe get to 81' later.

I agree, have been to many a concert back in the day, and quite a few Nascar and NHRA races.
Now a days I have no desire to be around that many people at one time. Especially if I'm not allowed to carry my own protection...

Hope you do enjoy the show, Hatch.

Morning, another hot and humid one here today.
I did walk out on the deck yesterday and slung a few rounds (9) at the gongs.
Before the mag was empty I was already sweating so back inside for the the rest of the day.
It's 74 with 100 % humidity at the moment 92 later.

Sorry about kitty.

I too am sorry to hear about the kitty.

72F here and humid. Going to low 80s.

It finally rained for a good period overnight and this morning. It will definitely help the garden. It will also cause the grass to start growing again.

Coffee in a Boy Scout Jamboree mug. Since it is Sunday, I have George Winston playing.

When the sun stays out later and the lawn dries out, I may continue to stain the barn. I had the house stained earlier in the month and asked for extra stain so I could stain the barn. Slow work, but it is an improvement.

Woke up to a very comfortable 50 with sunny skies. My sympathies for the folks who are experiencing the heat wave across the nation. We are supposed to warm up to the mid 90’s this week but with our low humidity it’s tolerable.

Planing on getting the RV washed today. If my wife gets the interior done it will get put away otherwise that will happen tomorrow.

We went to the Brit Floyd show discussed here yesterday. Great show and very well done. We saw another cover band (Australian Pink Floyd) several years ago in an outdoor setting. This show being indoors and us being pretty close to the stage man it was loud. Maybe I’m getting old but I felt my ears and eyes were assaulted. Lots of bright lights directed at us. Awesome laser light shows too. Music was great and worth the “punishment”. Had dinner at Chili’s first and there were lots of Floyd tee shirts in the restaurant. All attached to gray headed folks.


The band.

Can’t have a Floyd show without lasers.

98 with a RealFeel of 115 at 1PM .... today's high calls for our temp to rise one more degree, overnight low is supposed to be 75 .... the Muggy Meter was already pegged when we got up this morning .... family to gather in about 30 min to celebrate our youngest son's birthday .... this is the first time in over 20 years we've been home to celebrate it ....

Carol's little kitty is very sick. The Vet says she's dying.

Sorry about kitty.

Also sorry about the kitty, when she's ready there are lots of cats (especially older cats) in the shelters that need homes.

Two more hot days then it cools down.
The pool/birthday party was a huge success yesterday.
The little three year old all of a sudden got comfortable in the water and
started trying to swim. Of course she had a lot of company in the water and
also a life jacket.
