Title: Thursday, May 22, 2025

Morning all.

Cloudy here with a high in the low 60s.  At least the rain has stopped.  I may mow later, but it may be too wet.  Did manage to walk over a mile yesterday, a little sore in the legs today.  Haven't done much on the build over two days, hopefully that changes today.

Dave, western Iowa is very flat.  Here in eastern Iowa we have some hills.  Looking at a topographical map, on my usual longer walks there's about a 50 foot change from my house to the lowest part of the park.  Not like Rick's treks out west where he gains thousands of feet in a few miles, which I don't think I could partake in, but not totally flat, either.

Highs in the 60's, doctor? I've heard there were a lot of highs in the 60's, but I was in the Navy and was not allowed to indulge. Suburban Philly can expect temperatures to peak in the mid-fifties today. It's hard to believe Monday kicks off the summer season.
More rain today (and tomorrow). Can't recall when we've had three sunny days back-to-back. The HOA's lawn service mowed in the rain yesterday. When I was cutting grass for spending money in the fifties, that was a no-no. Guess times have changed, or the grass is different.
Stay dry, ya'll.

Wet, and chilly yet again in mid Lower Michigan.

Both vehicles on the fritz today.  See if I can get one back  online later.  :P

Smoke alarm Chirp to track down and eliminate first off this morning. 

Be well all.

Just outside, it's windy, too...

Good morning everyone.

A slight chance of rain and highs in the low 60's here in Oregon.

Star and I have a hike planned for today.

Have a great day everyone.

Good morning, all. Seacoast NH has been gray, cold and damp all morning. Rain has been forecast but so far it's missed us. We're supposed to get strong winds too, in a couple of hours.  No trolley track work today, so far lighting the woodstove, feeding the barn cat and chickens, paying bills and dealing with correspondence.  Might be a good afternoon and evening for modeling, we'll see.

Good morning.  Tidewater Virginia is in the 70's today.  We'll be taking advantage of the weather and walking in a little bit.  No worries about climbs here - our terrain is dead flat.

I've been doing design work on my computer.  I think I need to make a cardstock mockup and see how the building will look on the layout.

Afternoon all,

The morning was occupied with a routine dental appointment.  Workbench time now. Today is my better half's last day of work for the school year. She'll go back in August. 

Have a great one!
