Morning all,

Sunny and headed to 89 degrees today.  I will take a walk before it gets to that level.

I need to prepare for the backdrops which are hopefully arriving today.  Have to figure out how I'm going to stand the roll up in the corners when hanging them.

Good Morning Jeff and all that follow:

Another hot one in Florida, going into the 90's but perhaps rain. Weatherman says so anyhow, we will see. I am making progress on the Pickle factory, I'm at an enjoyable phase so all good. Hope everyone enjoyed Memorial Day and has a great day today.

Well, I called the eye surgeon and offered to go a week early for Eye #2.  They said, "nope."  So in the tradition of the Groundhog on Feb 2, that means "2 more weeks of non-working eyes."   My 1 week follow-up is tomorrow, I hope at least I can reduce the number of daily eye drops and the requirement to tape that eye shield over my eye every night.    

Now that I'm back from PT, I'll decide what to tackle today, probably more pick-up/put-away.  That I can do without good close vision.

Afternoon all,

Had Emee's eye and annual follow up and all is well.

I'm in the train shed and will update the build thread later this afternoon.

Dave, hope all goes well with you follow up. I'm sure all will be fine as well.

Have a great day ya'll.

Nice day for a drive, so we loaded up and set the compass at 0000 and headed out before 0900. Temp was ~50o breaking through the 80o 3/4 of the way up the mitten. At The Bridge high wind off of the lake had the temp back to 51o changing the compass heading to 270o and headed out towards Northern Command established our post ~1530hr under ~70o with CAVU and a clear view.

We're finding the deciduous trees are barely cracking the bud stage in contrast to back home. Also the insect population is thriving 🦟 mosquitos especially on the beech.  :o  :o

Dave; each doc must have eye patch criteria. The Doll was cleared after the first night but has the 30 day drop routine and 2 weeks between procedures patiently dripping as ordered. She loves the new views.

All I have for now.
