We dig down around 3 inches and there is moisture. Dig 6 inches and it it very moist. So only shallow rooted plants are showing stress. Lawns are first.
Elevator said they got stuck with a sprayer the other day only a couple of miles from here. It had a 100 ft boom.

Just finished changing the oil in the dually in preparation for the G2G. Really want to wash it and camper both tomorrow, but it is supposed to rain quite a bit. Of course, if I bet on that, not a drop will fall
You guys have a good night.

Monty - You know the rules. If you wash it, it will rain.

Much better dinner then I had Roy.

Truck is back together, should be good to go. Put about thirty miles on it with out issue. Will give it a good run in the morning to take RV in and see if I can have a.c. For the GTG next week...

Howdy gang.

Tim, this year does look a bit better for you than last. What a difference a MONTH can make too though. We went from constant rains and flooding here, to crunchy grass within a few weeks. Crunchy grass is far less dangerous here than flooding though, so if we can't have a balance, crunchy is fine for now.

Chad, glad the truck is more better.

Roy, dinner looks great. The movie....did you pick, or did Theresa?

Dak, how's the move coming?

Monty, every time I think I would like to knock the road grime off of my truck, it rains. The problem is it rains between work and home, but not AT home.

Dave, hope you get some relief soon.

Gerry, how is semi-retired living going?

Darren, any new guns?

Steve, are you getting the baby items assembled without pulling you hair out too?

Don, safe travels.

Have a great day all.

Rodney, it sucks that something that sees heat AND pressure would be made of plastic. Hopefully the replacement will last until the 450 arrives!, but you MAY want to go ahead and order the new truck now - just in case.

I hear you Doug. I don't think I help the situation either though. I don't exactly tow easy with my truck. 20k back there and I drive like a commuter late for work. She's in 4th and 5th a lot with the RPM's up there. I'm thinking a aluminum piping setup for the 450 and the 4.30 gears to keep me in 6th gear most of the time should be the ticket...
