Forgot to mention, my 93 Grand Marquis hit 200,000 miles today. Had to pull over to the side of the road to take an odometer picture.

A chilly 39 to start the day. Yes, leaves are falling, Charlie. We have one in the front yard that turns color early.
Rained Sat, Ken. So only 1/2 a weekend. Mowed Friday and Sunday the grass had grown 2-3 inches in many areas.
More foundation work today. It's only money....

Afternoon everyone and I hope that you had a good weekend. Had some areas south of me in the hills that had lows down into the low to mid 40's this morning and it was right around 50* at home. It is only going to top out in the mid/upper 60's but sunny.
A little bleary eyed this morning due to staying up to watch Sunday Night Football. Buffalo came from a 15 point deficit to win with a time running out 32 yard field goal by 1 point over Baltimore. The kicker just came to Buffalo on the red eye on Thursday morning and is 41 years old.

Evening guys. Mowed all the lawns yesterday. Pretty long on places. All the honeybees are on the golden rod now! Pointed up the base of the chimney for the back room. It's a block chimney but is covered with round field stones. I put water seal on the mortar, and it seems to hold up decent. I put it up over 35 years ago. I don't think I would want to haul chimney blocks at this stage of life.

The joys of home ownership, Charlie
Mowed today, except for one section that didn't look too bad. Have to check out the deck , looks a bit off level.

Day old coffee this morning.
More foundation work today. Offered my back hoe services yesterday but they did all the digging by hand. pick and shovel. These guys are young and tough.
