Well most of my time was in the shop today, as blue as the air looked I didn't think it smelled all that bad but they say the air quality is very poor..

Evening Steve. We can't get cable phone or internet at my house. 2 providers within 300 feet of the house with fiber and none will service my house.
So, I went with Elons Star Link and I like it. I find my phone and the mobile version is too hard to use on a regular basis.
At this point I really don't need cable because we don't watch TV AT ALL! It hasn't been plugged in for years!

We're getting fibre optic run in our house from Bell as an upgrade, cable has already been run to the house but the tech crew hasn't been here yet to run it in the house and provide the new modem..

Tasty Taco Tuesday afternoon Alabama, Steve, John and all the crew. It is a nice cooler day with a partly cloudy sky. It will only be 75°, light breeze and some sun.

Have a great day and it is time for me to get after my Domestic Househusband Chores like clean the kitchen.

Happy Hump Day Alabama, Steve, John and all the Dixie crew. Looks to be another nice day in my woods with full sun, about 78° and the rh about 40%. But I started the morning a little cold and 44° in August!! What is with that Ma Nature?

I hope everyone has a great day as the Humper and Not the Humpy!

ThongTastic Thursday and Eve of the Weekend Eve Alabama, Steve, John and all the Dixie crew. Another cool start to the day but ending as a beautiful sunny warm 80° day.

Waiting on Wifey to issue my orders for the day. I already know I have assigned KP again today which is actually OK by me. This way I get to fix what I want. If Wifey doesn't like it she knows to say nothing and go on or fix her own! LOL

Hello Steve, Rod..it didn't cool off too much here last night, It was still 19° at 5 am and very foggy after the rain we had. Going to be close to 30° here today and muggy. I should wash the car but fear how many bug bites I'll end up getting...lol Need to re-torque the wheels too..I have new front brake rotors and pads to put on shortly, likely next week as they are on the way..
