Good Saturday # 3 Illinois and Ford Truck enthusiasts, Ken, Sean, and Rod!

No scorcher here Ken, was 80° here with lots of sun.

I was outside all day trimming bushes. Was hot in the sun but otherwise cool.

Just getting back here....lol. We have had no rain in the last week. I think what was left from the storms went south of me. One of my SIL's in Iowa had a tree fall on her house and the other one lost power. My MIL fared well, she just had the high winds and wind driven rain.
