Only thing I tried to get caught up on today was my day off count. Blamed it on the cloudy skies and humidity, sure is handy having a pocket full of excuses.

Nice to see you back Sherm!
It took two 20L pails to paint that bin and a 12 x 14 shed. They were way over due. Your barn looks like it was built from the same plans as ours. Unfortunately we lost ours in a plow wind about 10 years ago.

Holy cripe's. Big thunderstorm and hail. It started at about 11:30 and is still boomin'. Hail was small and rain was hard. I had to pick Kalan up at a friend's, about 20 minutes north of us. A lot of cars were parked on the shoulder with their 4 ways on. I thought it was no different than driving in a snow storm, only there was traction.

Cool, cloudy and windy day here, a nice change for those hot ones we`ve been having. Daily rains so the grass so everything is nice and green.
Likely our barns are about the same age Colin, I`m happy that mine is still standing.
Hello John and Grant, hopefully no bad storms come your way.

We had a wild storm early last night but it didnt last to long, was cloudy and looked like rain most of yesterday. Guess Saskatchewan got it today.

finally got a day with out rain so lots got done. The humidity was a bit much, will be nice when everything gets dried out again

Dont know what the humidity was but it was one of those evaporation days without much of a breeze. Felt like the rain was going back up into the clouds, like when the mountains warm up and the mist rises

Morning boys. Everyone's lucky they didn't get the storm we did here on Sunday evening. A couple tornado's in the area, a couple destroyed yards. One by Melville and one south of Yorkton. It was raining so hard and windy that we couldn't see the road in front of our house, around 130' away. Looking through our bush leads me to believe that we had a tornado within 75' of our house. The way trees are twisted off at the tops is very odd and not characteristic of a normal straight wind.

Have a great day guys!!!

Thunderstorm again tonight and a rain day for tomorrow, we're supposed to have had half our yearly precipitation in July
