Good Morning All. Clear and 55° right now. A return to the 80's today with upper 90's Sunday and Monday. Too early for these temperatures!
I managed to mow the north side yesterday after the sustained brisk winds dried everything out rapidly yesterday. Wind was between 25 mph and 30 mph all day long.
Looks like a trip today for groceries/beer. Last venture out together was ten days ago. Wife drives down to the mailbox and back daily, a 2.25 mile round trip! I went alone to the gas station for gas for the mower some time, I don't remember which day!
Wow! 84 posts here in the Coffee Shop yesterday. Hard to keep up any more. I'll take some scrambled eggs and a pile of sausage patties this morning Francine.
Thanks for the likes (and loves) as well as the comments regarding yesterday's post;

Doesn't seem like I got a lot accomplished out in the train shed yesterday. I did manage to get some ground cover spread out.
Looks like I need to ballast that switch next. Once that is done, it will make another three feet of layout
completely scenicked from fascia to backdrop.
Ran trains most of the time. As I ran one by on the upper level, I passed the tire repair store that looked like it needed a bit more business. Dang quarantine!
Louis - As long as unemployment insurance is as generous as it is right now, very few folks are going to take those jobs that your wife has open. Let's see; $11/hour times 40 hrs/week = $440. Feds are kicking in $600/week on top of state unemployment insurance. Duh! Tax-free no less! A definite roadblock to economic recovery!
Sherrel -
I miss commenting on too many posts: I seriously think my mind is starting to go!
I'm losing them myself also.
Chet - I got over the grasshopper invasion already; it happened a few years ago. We need a "gully washer" rain every year in May to drown out the young 'uns. If not, they will take over. Happy Birthday to your wife.
David - Good to see you posting again.
Everybody have a great day.
