    Foggy here and gonna add lots of heat later... ugh. Giz and I are holding down the fort while Grammy heads to Portland for a day of g-baby love. Just one day this time instead of 10. That was a lot. Seems a lil one's energy output is directly proportional to Gram's energy reserves... go figure... :rootintootin:

    While I haven't been a member (yet) I was pleased to see them push back against the anti-hunting groups last year.

    I think i'll call them this morning and join, i spoke with a woman there a few months ago and she was kind enough to send me a newsletter and some information , its hard to be a member of everything you want to, when you think about it somebody wants to ban or regulate everything i enjoy, it's not easy being me, thanks stinny.

    Came back amazingly well, thanks for asking. I am probably about 98%. Unfortunately, the arthritis factor is starting and no doubt will probably get worse with time. All in all things are really good though.

    Well I trimmed up a good number of trees today. The heat was a little much, but not as bad as expected. The storm that mostly blew over brought in some cooler air. We had one down pour and a few times it sprinkled. Several times I had to come off the ladder and get up on the porch because of the looks of some of the clouds. No sense on getting hit with more than the falling branches I already got hit by.:picard:

    Nice work man. This heat can drain me quick. I drank some liquids while working, and a lot of liquids when the day was done.

    Almost time to start the morning workout. Caffeine going down. Looks like it will be mixed weather today. The rain will probably be this afternoon, possibly heavy at times.
