Howdy Cowboys and Patriots......
A new day has arrived..... Feet hit the deck about 0630.

Light breeze and sunny skies..... Humidity is a wee bit high, but that should lessen as the temps increase. 48°F & 84% humidity. Forecast is for 91°F today.....
This will be the first day that we hit 90°F or higher..... I do believe the A/C will get it's first run for the year.

POD calls for:
TT work to continue.
HD 1520 - 2100

Yesterday I did make some good progress on the TT project

Sensational Saturday morning Montana, Roy, Bug, Tim and all the TT rebuilders and Cowboy crew.
Looks like you made some good progress and it is coming back to gether!

It has been an interesting week with the Temperatures in the high 90's and index of 110-111° coupled with 2 sever storms dropping 1.1 inched in several hours and another dropping 0.81 in 30 minutes. On top of that we lost power for 28 hours through the sever heat. Then again 3 hours yesterday while they made permanent repairs to the down lines and broken poles. It was a large sycamore that fell, plocked the road for 4 hours and took the lines out by breaking 2 power poles off!

Well today is more seasonable in the 70's, low RH, nice breeze and warn full sun! Off to the Range for the annual picknick and social event.

Howdy and Good morning to all the Fine Visitors, Cowboys, Rustlers, Sailors and Patriots.....

Feet hit the deck this morning at 0700.... Butt hit the recliner 15 mins after that with cowboy coffee in hand..... eyes closed 7 mins later.....
The clock just hit 0900..... I am awake Fresh coffee .... yummy !

Some clouds and clear sky...... light breeze of 10 mph.... 66°F with high humidity of 70%.... Yuck! The high for today is expected to be 82°F and Thunderstorms are forecast for this afternoon.

Soon, I will get back to work on the TT project. I hope to get the fiberglass siding glued down to the new plywood sheathing today before the thunderstorms hit.
Later.... 1700, my HD shift starts. Only 4 hrs today.

Enjoy this great day my friends......

Good morning to all the Daddies and Patriots .....

The thunderstorms missed us yesterday...... I was hoping for a bunch of rain..... Might get some during the day today. Late tonight and tomorrow is supposed to be rain.

I hope to get the rest of the fiberglass glued down and the rubber seals around the slide out installed today. Maybe the seam where the roof and siding join together.....

Weather looks to be an overcast with light winds, 54°F & 72% Humidity..... Not going to get much warmer,

After church this morning, I need to stop at HD and get more adhesive for the siding.....

Enjoy a nice Daddies Day gents.....
