Good morning everyone.

Great day agin. I getting nervous with all of this nice weather, after our non-spring this just does not seem right. But I'll take every day we get, think we kind of earned it.

Going to be a laid back day today. Repot some plants, do a butt plant on the deck, do some reading and later burn a steak and have some cold beverages.

I hope everyone has as nice of day as I hope to have, be comfy and safe.

Morning all ,Les so your repotting a butt plant on the deck? LOL!

Little cooler yesterday and today then what has been the norm,which is not upsetting me.

A few left over fireworks shooters last night,,they close the sales tents on the 5th so they have to run out at some point.

They don't bother me but they just drive the pooch crazy.

My plans pretty much the same as Les,slow day with not much of a plan.

Have A Great Day All!!

Checking in. Just finished up 4 week of raspberry harvest. Good year but glad it's over. They should start cutting our green peas today. Temps should be in the 90's this week, summer is here to stay. Be glad to get back in the shop. Richard

Loyd, that was funny.

Hi Everyone,

Beautiful weather here with lower temps and much lower humidity. Wish this could last.

Today we're returning the cat and dog we have been pet-sitting. This past week has gone pretty smooth, but now I think they know something's up. The cat is under a bed and the dog is anxious. Getting them ready to go might be a challenge.

Have a great Sunday out there in Oldgasland

Afternoon all! Beautiful day here in North Dakota!
Had a big storm rumble thru again last night but seems like it just skirted us to the south a little.
Pretty good winds though as a friend of mine had his pontoon completely flipped over and landed upside down in the water!
Warden is uptown with her sister for bingo so I stayed home to get some computer time in.
The big pot is over 10K, so I hope she does well! LOL
Hope all is well with the rest of you!
Have a great day on me!!--KEVIN

Travis Pastrana is attemping 3 of Evils jumps tonight in Las Vegas on the History Chanel.
50 cars,14 buses and the fountain at Caesars Palace.

Hope he makes it. I know I made my day.

That looks like a great spot to unwind, Les.

Which one is the Butt Plant?

Far right chair, impressive implant, half a book and bottle of wine. I guess I needed it. Flight control gave an all green. Just a great day, hope for more.

Loyd,

You did better than me--I had to read that again, because my brain skipped from butt to deck and came out butt check. : o Then I was thinking about water butts, and it took me the third try to get it right.

Well, it's been tick season here with all the rain we had a few weeks ago--checking for ticks is what is happening here a lot! Bob had me check something on him just a few hours ago, and I got an early instar dog tick off me just last month that had been feeding for a while. Had the tick checked for all the fun stuff they are carrying now-a-days, and it was clean, but that's no guarantee so fingers crossed. Fortunately it was not a deer tick (Lyme disease) nor a lone-star-tick (that-allergic-to-meat disease they carry that is popping up in MD according to my allergist), although it may be only a matter of time before more carry all those.

Speaking of meat--sorry you had to burn those steaks Les, but I can't think of a nicer spot to do it.

Beautiful summer day here--but was stuck inside working. Tomorrow morning, I hope to get out a little to get some exercise in the below 70 early a.m., then the weather starts to get hot again.

Wait--it's tomorrow already! Dang. Better get to bed, or that early exercise ain't happening.
