    Helped my dad do a few things this morning. Npw I'm sitting here waiting for some guys at work to do their job so I can do mine. Hopefully I can wrap this up quick and get back outside.

    My wife and I are enjoying the beautiful weather today.



    I think our neighbor set a Guinness world record for weed whacking. Oh well. I'm getting on my tractor to mow now.

    We went to the local airport to look at the B-17 that flew in for the weekend. It is only one of 10 that is still flying. The plane has been flying tours around the valley for a few days with those radial engines roaring. Definitely a head turner. There were lots of Veterans in the crowd. It was a very patriotic event.

    Nice plane! My uncle was a tailgunner in a B-17. He was scared to death on every mission. When he got home from the war, he never went near a plane again.

    I think I'm going to have to call the law on my neighbors for the second time tonight. First quads riding dirty racing in front if my house for 30 minutes...now some drunk chick wandering around. This is normally a VERY quiet neighborhood.

    It's a real redneck circus. I'm not making this up. Two guys drove by on a JD lawn tractor...one on the hood...both drinking beer out of bottles. 10 minutes later they drive by the other way....towing a 400EX...both drinking beer out of cans.

    Looks like somebody else called the law...they just drove by.

    Oh yeah, it's really nice. It was in the low 70s and absolutely gorgeous today. It's 62 out now, no wind, and just really nice.

    Evan Williams honey and coke makes it gooder.

    Uncool, especially in a neighborhood with children.
