    Crazy is Wednesday I was completely flabbergasted when I got home Wednesday night to find I had gotten nearly 3" of rain. At work they had rain, but probably didn't even total 1/2". I work 30 miles from home - by road. Probably 15-20 miles by straight line.

    saw a picture today of the sky above the forest fires in CA. Very impressive. Looks like the end was coming.

    We got a little rain while loading the fire earlier. That was great. It rained fairly steady for about 15 minutes. Just enough to make everything wet. Time to load it up again.

    The sight of that pic gives me shivers. High Park Fire. We left for metro Denver where I gave my father a suprise 70th birthday party June 9th, 2012, after getting 15 miles from the foothills where we lived and near I happened to look back and see a plume of smoke just NW of our house. 15 hours (June 10th, our wedding anniversary) later we saw the same glow, we were at 5600', the peak behind up was over 7000' ft and the glow eclipsed it. Very Very scary chit, the 194o's law of putting out fires needs to change. June 17th they opened up our neighborhood to go home, 4 hours later we were evacuated again.

    Time to wear off some of the calories from the cold beer and two cheeseburgers I just ate!

    Those sure look like a nice machine. Enjoy it!
    I was just looking at the BX today at the local county fair. one of them they had there had a nice belly mower, as well as a front loader. Amazingly my wife didn't give either the head shake or the eye roll.

    That's unfortunately very impressive.

    I love the clear lake/mendocino area. My wife and I were married in Mendocino. I just hope the area is not too ravished by the fires.

    All my posts were just removed from a facebook group trying to sell my neighbors 57' Ford F250 (First "for sale". Second, how to move the truck for my neighbor to my house 3 blocks away, and Third why were my posts removed. Excuse me!! I am an honest upstanding citizen, sorry I do not know motorhead speak, as you all know I am honest to a fault. Trigger happy admins. No harm, no foul, but powerhungry admin guy. I'm offended. So grateful FHC understands womanspeak and not twist it into some kind of offense.

    Don't beat yourself up over facebook and their actions. Facebook, or " face plant" as I like to call it creates more "crap" in society than most people care to believe. Hopefully, it's on its way out. Zuckerberg's true character shows more and more everytime he shows his face on TV.
