Good Morning!!!!!!

Mornin' fellow gulag comrades! 69 at choretime heading for a high in the upper 80's. Heat index predicted to be around 95 so downright cool compared to yesterday. Another .03" overnite at the ranch from a passing shower. Heavier stuff with tornaders & hail to our north & east. Back at the garden to finish some of that while there's a breeze and then kinda coast into the afternoon in the AC. Looks like my trip north is a "go" around the 25th for about 5 days. Will be nice to get away and exhale for a few days. Also get a look at the MN crop between here and I Falls. Wife was already whining. I let it slide and didn't bring up the two plus weeks she's already been gone, let alone all the chores I got stuck with when she was running late.

Morning boys. 74 here and supposed to make 79 today. Air is a lot more comfortable today so far. We did get some rain last night. Not much though. All the strong weather stayed just north of us. We got a nice Ranger ride in yesterday. The deer flies are horrible down in the forest. But was still a fun day. We were supposed to be in Moose Lake this weekend for agate days. But, we ended up cancelling because things are just getting to expensive for us and funds are getting low. So we stayed home. Otherwise just a go with the flow kinda of day. Have a good one boys.

You always hang back while momma visits grand kids ? Afternoon peoples was a great weekend,  the whipper snapper came over yesterday with her golden retriever,  filled up the kiddy pool and sat patio side while playing some serious fetch with the pooches,  water breaks galore,  although Maisy the young lab didn't think much of the sprinkler, she sure got us all wet from the pool. Talking to the kiddo she claimed her water softner wasn't working,  so I went over earlier and it's all good to go now, ( needed salt) ..lol. I still looked like a hero.. anywho gots the grass cut afterwards but didn't want to change oil in the pick em up,  maybe tomorrow...Friggin Monday already....see ya!!!

[glenn57]

  yea I'm not going to the cities to a Waterpark slide for most the day. How boring. Especially in this heat and humidity.

Today she went to Monticello to her friends house yo watch the big Monticello parade. whoopdy doo.

[mike89]

well after picking up about 6 gallons of ground fall apples I decided to mow too..  got all done that I wanted to..  just a small area that I left and that will be fine...   I did find some weeds for another batch of weed b gone.. 

[Gunner55]

Have you ever eaten at the Moose Lake Diner Gunner?  Man do they have good food. Homemade everything. Great meatloaf and spaghetti too.

Nope, we don't go that far east much anymore as it's 20-30 miles longer.

[Jerkbiat]

Morning boys. 66 here with some light rain. Supposed to make 74 today. Then I to the 60s for a couple days. That will feel nice. Otherwise just getting ready for another day in the salt mines. Have a good one boys.

Morning boys. 64 here and will be in the 70's today.  Sounds great! We got 1/2" of rain this morning.  So not a lot to do till it dries out.  More coffee I guess.  Have a good one.   

[Gunner55]

Mornin gents, 66 here early this morning & we're going for 76. Getting a little rain too. We're headed into GR today as we need a few things. 'Bout it here, have a good day.

[markn]

Grandsons want to shot trap tonight, oldest may want to purchase one of my trap guns so he would like to try it out. That will be OK, got two too many right now. Looks like the deer have pruned up my apple trees. May have to put fences back up. Have a great day everyone, later......

Mornin' fellow gulag comrades! 68 at choretime heading for a high in the mid-80's. A dab of rain so far. Only a trace at the ranch ~7:30 & .01" in Bugtussle. Lots of noise so far and more rain on the radar. Got thru the garden whipped into shape yesterday, weeding individual hills, putting on some urea and tilling between the rows of beans & sweet corn. Was a dishrag by the time I was done. Mowed the backyard that was long & overdue. 2 hrs. later I'd messed up the mosquitoes' favorite spot. At least a lot of it was in the shade. Payroll & other assorted bookwork on tap today. If the wife wasn't home I'd entertain ideas of a nap.

I mowed some yday after we got back from town, so now I'm about done with this round. Did a load of clothes already & they're out on the line. A couple other things on my list for today too & not sure where I'll start yet. Have a great day.
