Morning

Good to be back. As they say "Only the good die young" and in my case the really bad die and come back for more".

Started to brush out the dogs last night and got a fur ball 3' long and 2' wide. And that's only one dog.

Going to vacuum out the truck this morning and get it washed. then I have to sit down and get my new phone hitched up on sync in the truck. It shouldn't be that difficult, it's doesn't have internet and only updated to be able to text easier. (it has a keyboard) Made by Kyocera.

The humidity is on it's way in this morning.

I saw the news this morning and Wisconsin is getting wacked with flooding. Hope everything is dry at Tom's house.

Well the alarm clock just went off for Kathy to go to work. First time using it in the camper.

I'm guessing another humid day ahead of us. Stay cool if you can and plenty of water.

Humid is an understatement.... felt like you could cut the air with a knife. ! was running the truck A/C at 6 am.. My eyeglass lenses instantly fogged over when I got out.

Yeah, it really wasn't nice out there this morning. At least they are saying that this weekend should be a little bit better.

Yeah it's another humid day out there.

Ray did you look on eBay under "space suits"? LOL

I think most of my day will be inside due to the weather. Maybe even watch an old movie. Camping is a good thing.

Yes, it was pretty miserable out most of the last two weeks. Been drinking water by the gallons.

Ray, let's be real. You have multiple air conditioned white suits. They are just metal clad and have engines and 4 wheels.
