Same Ol' Buzzard
Good Morning All. 64° and clear to start the week. Noticeable lack of wind since Friday has increased the number of insects that buzz me when outside. They don't bite but are a real irritant when landing in eyes, ears, mouth or nose. Checked the pool temperature yesterday and it is up to 74°, almost warm enough to remove the cover and start using it. Wife left yesterday for a five-day babysitting adventure with the two grandsons, so I have a bit of additional housework to deal with. I already threw her out of the kitchen when I retired!
Did a little more bracing/gluing on the laser-cut structure yesterday, and primed some of the walls. Sundays are not always productive for me in the train shed due to church/socializing stuff.
Beady - I was not concerned that you were going to throw a fit...hahaha. I actually think that in some respects, some doctors perform a disservice by not dispensing prevention advice. They only get paid when you get sick, so it's not in their best interest to offer advice in how to avoid that. Now that should offend someone! So how did the pact work out? By the way, sort of repeating what Dave posted yesterday, around here Lowes also will rent you a small flatbed truck for a few hours to get your purchases home.
Terry - Hey! Great video.
Ken in MD - Retaining wall looks great.
Curt - Watching a Heart concert isn't such a bad thing. I do remember "lusting" after the Wilson sisters in my youth. One of them still looked pretty hot the last time I saw them on TV a few years back...not bad for a gal as old as me!
Joe - Ironically, I have actually had a frost in early May one year. Caught it in time and turned on the overhead sprinkler to beat it. Basically the water is warmer than the air and insulates the tender plants from the cold.
Sherrel - Speaking of jousting...there's an establishment in Dallas called "Medieval Times", there's other locations as well. It's a dinner theater of sorts, that features jousting. The connection is that they board their horses at a ranch that I pass every time that I go somewhere, and it is quite a sight. There's perhaps 100 of them and they are all beautiful and it's quite spectacular. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medieval_Times
Louis - Good to hear from you. It's been a couple of days.
Dave - Congratulations on the successful auction.
Everybody have a great day.
