Good Morning All. 65° and partly cloudy. Thunderstorm arrived yesterday right on schedule a bit after noon A mean dark sky, lots of thunder, 45 mph+ winds but less than .25" of rain. Mostly it attacked areas east and south of us. Interesting pattern, as it came out of the NNE; most of our severe weather comes from the SW or NW. Storm arrived early enough that the temperature never made it up past 87°. North winds and cooler temperatures are expected to continue for two days, with the high maybe hitting 81°.
Good Morning Francine, make it two eggs over easy and lots of sausage patties this morning.
After church and before the storm, I did get another hour or so of mowing before lunch/nap. My wife went shopping and got trapped in a blinding rainstorm south of here in Denton for a while. Came out from a store and wham; sat it out in the parking lot for about twenty minutes. At least she didn't get her hair wet! I spent an hour in the afternoon cleaning the last pound of Gulf Coast shrimp that my son sent my wife for Mother's Day. Lots of fun removing heads, shells and disemboweling them. Found four separated starfish legs that must have been caught in the net! The cat wouldn't eat them.
Our pet vultures ate the rest with gusto!
Thanks for the comments and likes regarding yesterday's pictures;

As per the usual Sunday, train shed time was limited yesterday. I did work a bit on the Masonic Lodge, mundane stuff right now...second floor and roof supports, but at least it's progress. Didn't work on the peninsula project. No progress pictures, who wants to see roof supports? So I dug out a picture of a cardstock farm house that I did some years back. Here it is partially visible behind and to the left of the red barn.
And another view.
Sherrel - Years ago, we played Bunco with a large group of friends/acquaintances, until a couple was caught cheating on the scoring.
They always seemed to win! Our carpool buddy suspected it and kept score on the side to prove it one night. He did one round with them, I did another and a third person did one also. He was pretty blatant about revealing it and they slinked out in a huff afterwards. A shame since there were no prizes involved, just the glory. Games stopped after that night.
Dave - I like the workers peering into the hopper.
Chet - I like those Chooch loads that you posted. I also like using them and I have a number of them.
Time to go, things to do. I hope to get some extra time in the train shed today since the mowing is now done for a couple of days.
Everyone have a great day.
