Good day Dennis, Jeff, Bryan, Pat and all who pass through here. They say today is supposed to be our last triple digit heat day.

Monring Steve. Not for us, going to be hot all week. That's okay, I just thing what it will be like in January and February here, and the heat doesn't bother me!

We have a 20% chance of rain all week. We could use a little bit. My grass crackles when I walk on it.

That's not good. We've actually had a fair amount of rain this year. It's bone dry out in western Nebraska, though. Lots of wildfires.

Did you see the storms from Ohio to Maryland? It got nasty Friday night.

I heard about them from a friend who lives in Ohio. Supposedly 80mph straight line winds. No power for some place for another week or so.

Yeah, power was lost all over the coast. Of course, it wasn't anything like Alabama went through with the tornados.

Just got done mowing the high sections of grass. It has been a couple weeks since I have done any mowing.
