It was cloudy once again. Weather guessers predicted 4 straight days of rain. Not a drop. It’s been 2 weeks. now. The lawn is looking like the desert.

Aurora as far south as Oregon tomorrow. Were too far south.

I put in 3 here, all with no preexisting wiring. I had to cut holes between every other joist, then patch the holes. I had drill extension, but the bit kept snarling on fiberglass insulation. I’ve gotten pretty at patching sheetrock holes, so it wasn’t too big of a deal, just time consuming. I have a lot of time on my hands.

The fans are great in summer, but also help move the warmer air near the ceiling in winter.

Daughter and fam are back with us. #1 grandson is sailing in the local junior Olympics competition. 5 races yesterday, 2 more today. No one has a clue about the standings as they have published the first day results.

We went to another grandson’s…[Read more]

You’ll like the convenience of the remote.

First weekend in month with no kids around. I’m finally getting some work finished.

Yup, not comfortable unless you are accustomed to it. Especially sleeping on the ground or on cots. My wife never really goes to sleep because natures sounds. After 2 days she’s heading home. It’s been a while. I hope the girls had a good time.

2 more days in the 90s. My hydrangeas have fried in the sun.

Hope you had a great week camping. It’s been a while since we’ve gone out because of the house. We hope to get back into soon.

Oh it’s been hot and humid for sure. We’ve been on a run of 80’s for 2 weeks and an occasional bump into the 90’s. The worst part is the humidity, 80-90%. As of today it’ll be 80+ for the next 2 weeks with that 1-2 bump into the 90’s. Surprisingly the ocean water temp has been bouncing between 58 and 64 which is really cold for this time of…[Read more]

Daughter and family back again as the eldest son continues his sailing club and the next 2 go to camp.

Daughter and fam gone. Finally time to relax.

So far so good. As they older they calm down…sorta.

Oldest daughter is coming to stay for the week while her husband travels for business. With her come the 5 kids. This going to be more than the house.

Now they are saying high chance the 90s could go another 10 days. If so, watering is losing battle.

full moon was pretty cool tonight, bright orangie yellow on a dark blue sky.

Last day of the year for me. It’s all downhill as the days get shorter

Broke out the lawn sprinkler last night. The sandy soil out here dries out quickly. The drought resistant seed I’ve been using has been great. It’s the rest of the lawn that’s got a hint of brow in it. No rain in the 14 day forecast.

96F roared in yesterday. More of the same today, tomorrow, Thursday and Friday. Possibly piercing 100 later in the week.

twas a great day with the clan As the kids grow they are more interested in playing wiffle ball and touch football.

You may need to weight 2 blades

If been laying around for a while, the blades may have warped. Do you still have the old fan ?

H D and Lowes has both. Thin peelable tape to attach to the top of the blades. The trick is finding the right amount and which blade to weight.

First 90’s of the year headed this way with T storms mixed in. It’s always enjoyable taking a natural outdoor shower.
