May just be time for coffee.

Afternoon all.

I'm on dog -watching duty today, so I got out of a city trip.     We've gone swimming already today, so now she's napping while I play guitar / scroll through the internet. 

Slim, my mom has a Bersa .380, and she likes it.  It's the only pistol she could pull the slide back on, so that's why she got that.  It's a good little gun.

Your oldest daughter is graduating from College!!!?

That can't be!

I had to be 60!

Er... Wait.... Never mind,
 

Nice graduation present.

I'll be 60 in a year, and mine will be graduating....first grade this year. No Bersa .380 for her, just yet. But maybe- I should just buy it now, to be ready WHEN she graduates from college! It'll beat inflation that way! I'll just take care of it for her until then...

And congrats on the Daughter and proud Father.

I got the wifey a little .380 Cobra, I think that's what it was. It was ok, until the slide fell off while she was shooting one day. It went out the door after that little stunt. Then I got her a S&W .40. Aside from not having a safety, it has been a real sweet little gun for her.

Not Assuming anything " her graduation present."
And I remember when Micah was born.  

If my memory didn't went to pulp you only had daughters till then(4?).


PS. Even though we never met in person I consider you one of my oldest friends that I am still in touch with.  

You are correct, my friend.

Seem y'all have all the water, so dry here the gopher turtles are packing canteens....
My pond once 12' deep can be navigated as Moses did 

30% rain predicted for yesterday = 0 , nada, zilch,
 so dry the guessers are saying 5% -10% or 15% chance just to get someone to read their forecasts 

as side from fires, the biggest problem is , when we do get a bit of rain, IDIOT drivers can't handle it

Evening all.

Nothing much going on today.  Just took the dog for a walk/swim, then got dinner marinated.  Pork loins.

If anyone is interested, this is the video from Saturday, when we did helicopter training.

May get nasties before midnite, first line looks to move just NW of us a few miles but could shift.

[Delmonico]

Yep, severe T storm warning nasty a few miles north was some lavender and purple in it on doppler.   Warning is the whole county north of I-80, I'm about 3 miles south and just getting some rumbles.

Afternoon all.

We're having similar weather here, Del.  35mph+ wind and rain.  I was out with the dog when it hit, on a bald mountain.  I made a beeline for the trees, and our walk was cut about 4 miles short.

Coffee and water are steaming!

Working on our sunshine and steadily rising temps.  72 today.  Heading to the low to upper 80's next week.

Sprinklers lawn mowed and a spot coat of milorganite on the front.  Guess I can lax out for a day or two now,

Afternoon Ladies and Germs.   

Sunny weather in California the past few days.  A little splash of rain on Tuesday, but that was it. 

Wednesday, I helped my dad install an internet site for a school down the Trinity river (town of Burnt Ranch in case you're wondering).  Ie, I loaded my truck with $1100 of super fragile solar panels, then drove 10 miles down a road that I wouldn't even think of going without expensive stuff in the bed.  There was one pothole that was so deep I almost knocked the running board off the passenger side.    Then I had to go through a spot where the brush had completely grown over the road.  And not soft brush either.  This was Cyanothis, a plant so hard the Indians used it for fishing hooks.  I've been waxing for two days, but few of the scratches have come out.   
Also on Wednesday, I banged my knee hard enough that I'm still not sure I didn't break my kneecap.  I could barely walk afterwords, and the leg swelled up.  Thursday it at least moved, but not within it's full range of motion.  I'm in the same boat today.  I can walk, but not very far.  Made kneeling at work fun.

Today, I have to make a city trip.  My high school is graduating a class today, so I have to go and watch.  Also, I know the Valedictorian.  Afterwards, I have to do a bit of shopping, since the family is leaving for vacation on Monday.  I'll be alone two weeks.  Lucky me.

I like weather like that, it not only keeps it cool, but keeps the gnats out of your face.

Question... is Iced coffee acceptable in here? Too hot to fire up the coffee pot.
