Top of the morning fellows! The sock is full the coffee smells wonderful. Eggs over easy, sausage patties and toast should get us going, and maybe we can sneak a slice of fresh angel food cake my wife baked last night. Hot here near 90, garden in full swing and looking good. Grass cutting and yard work today, car cruise tomorrow. Well gang have a great weekend!

Thanks for opening Todd, did all the yard work yesterday so today is wash the camper, refill some supplies, and we have a grad party this afternoon.
Should been camping this weekend and not last but rain or shine we needed to celebrate and honor those who have fought for our freedom.
June and the I’m not liking the heat already, i just hope this isn’t a sign to come.

HB you guys survive last weekend? I heard the weather was f___ing horrid up at the bay?

Ok friends have a great weekend and stay safe.

Good morning everyone. My dad is home and doing well after open heart surgery last Thursday. They are still trying to get his meds dialed in, but overall he is doing well and on the upswing.

It is sunny and supposed to top out around 80 this afternoon - a great day for baseball. Both of my boys have games, and we just found out that our oldest made the Little League All-Star team. Looks like a summer full of baseball.

Take care everyone.

Coffee is great until that diuretic pill kicks in then it screams to come out with a vengeance.

A hot one here in PA, at least that's what the weather man says. Gonna mow, take a little bike ride, make a fire this afternoon and maybe cook on it the watch the fire while drinking a beer or two after dark. That should be enough for today, don't want to overdo it.

Its been in the 90's here too but so far low humidity and windy so not too bad. Looks like a week long spell of heat coming. Think I'll put some ice in my coffee...

I picked up a couple tons of Blaschak coal from my Amish neighbors this week and can verify freight costs are going up a lot, lol. Been planting various garden stuff here and there and killing the stuff I dont want growing. Today will just be more mowing and staying indoors.

Stay cool!

Gonna be Hot Hot Hot! down here for the next few days and then just Hot! Should be able to get the rest of the mowing done.

Have a good weekend everybody!
